Dear Friends...

Anger can be very damaging. It hurts hearts and can lead to harmful actions. When we learn to control our anger, we take an important step towards building healthy relationship.

Have a good day...!

In this reflection by Prof. A.G. Fidalgo CSsR from the Accademia Alfonsiana, we are reminded that the spiritual life has a rhythm, like breathing.

We inhale humility.
We exhale audacity.
We receive grace.
We step forward in courage.

Breath by breath.

Remembering without vengeance

February 24th marks one year since Russian forces invaded Ukraine.

The record of deaths, injuries, refugees and displaced people, destruction and economic and social damage speaks for itself. We pray that all those who have authority over nations to commit themselves concretely to ending the conflict, to reaching a cease-fire and to starting peace negotiations. May the Lord forgive so many crimes and so much violence. He is the God of peace. Let us remain close to the martyred Ukrainian people who continue to suffer.

Lord of searching hearts,

Meet them where they are.
In their questions, be patience.
In their uncertainty, be steady hope.
In their longing, be close.

Teach us to listen well,
to recognise Your Spirit already at work in their lives.

May they know they are not alone
and that in seeking truth,
they are already drawing near to You.

Amen.

What does faith have to say about competition, excellence and the human spirit?

In this timely conversation, Fr. Patrick Kelly, SJ, PhD, scholar, former collegiate athlete and contributor to the Vatican’s landmark document Giving the Best of Yourself, reflects on the deep connection between sport and spirituality.

Lord of the desert and the locked door,

On this Ash Wednesday,
when dust is traced on waiting foreheads,
remember those who wait behind fences and case numbers.
Remember the mothers, the workers, the students,
not condemned, but suspended in uncertainty.

You were once carried across borders.
You knew the long road of exile.
Be present in the fluorescent stillness,
in the quiet ache of those who do not know
when their names will be called.

When access was denied
and prayer paused at the threshold,
You were already inside.

Mark us with ashes that burn away indifference.
Teach us to visit You where You are confined.
Strip us of the comfort of distance.

We are dust
yet dust breathed upon by God.
Let this Lent make us merciful.

A federal judge ordered ICE to allow Catholic clergy to provide ashes and Communion at a detention facility, citing religious freedom protections.
