Nativity Brandon

Jesus experienced total abandonment in a situation he had never before experienced in order to be one with us in everything. He did it for me, for you, to say to us: “Do not be afraid, you are not alone. I experienced all your desolation in order to be ever close to you”.

Look at the open arms of Christ crucified, and let Him save you. Contemplate His blood shed out of love and let yourself be purified by it. In this way you can be reborn. #GoodFriday

Christians promote peace, starting with the community in which they live.

May Jesus, Mary and Joseph bless and protect all families around the world, so that love, joy and peace may reign within them.

"O Wisdom from the mouth of the Most High, you fill the whole world. With strength and gentleness you order all things: come to teach us the way of prudence." #AdventAntiphons

Joy, prayer and gratitude are three ways that prepare us to experience Christmas in an authentic way. #Advent

We cannot truly follow Jesus when we are weighed down by things, because if the heart is crowded with other goods, there will be no room for the Lord, who will become just one thing among others.

Sunday is the day to say to God: thank you Lord, for life, for your mercy, and for all your gifts!

Prayer is never in vain: it always brings forth something new that, sooner or later, bears fruit.

Let us ask our Lord to help us understand that love is service, love means taking care of others.

Never tire of encountering Jesus in prayer, in listening to the Word of God, and in receiving the Eucharist.

Loving Christ is not a superficial sentiment. It is an attitude of the heart that we demonstrate when we live as He wants us to.

The living presence of Christ within us is the light that guides our choices, the flame that warms our hearts as we go to meet the Lord.

On this Feast of Corpus Christi, we need to remember that Jesus, the Bread of Life, is our strength and support on life's journey.

The Eucharist contains all the flavour of Jesus’ words and deeds, the taste of His Death and Resurrection, the fragrance of His Spirit.

When the Holy Spirit is present, something always happens. Where blows the Spirit, things are never at a standstill.
