Feeling uncertain about where life has placed you? St. Eugene de Mazenod reminds us: God chose the time and place. He sees what we can’t. Your role is to trust the path. Peace comes when you stop worrying and start believing He’s already ahead of you. #ThoughtForTheDay

Perfect way to start the day — Wednesday morning Mass at the Cathedral High School chapel. Grateful to our Gaels Guides for leading us in prayer. As we head into the day, remember: choose your friends wisely… and be a good friend!

St. Eugene de Mazenod reminds us: we can’t stay comfortable forever. Sometimes grace calls us to stretch. When you step beyond the familiar, God meets you there. Your growth becomes the path others follow. Courage. Trust. Move with Him. #ThoughtForTheDay

“Divinization, then, is true humanization (becoming fully human). This is why human existence points beyond itself, seeks beyond itself, desires beyond itself, and is restless until it rests in God.” Pope Leo XIV #InUnitateFidei

Here, Christ the King doesn’t sit on a throne - He lies on a bench. #HomelessJesus calls us to confront injustice and stand with the oppressed. In every marginalized person, the Liberating Christ restores dignity and urges us to build a world where all can rise. @stpatshamilton.bsky.social

Who could have imagined the day the U.S. would lean toward a murderous aggressor? This feels like a betrayal of the values we stand for. We must raise our voices. #StandWithUkraine 🇺🇦 tvpworld.com/90102358/ukr...
Ukraine may have to give up land and arms under US peace plan
