The saints will shine like the sun
in the kingdom of their Father.

A reflection on All Saints and All Souls by Fr. Victor Hoagland, C.P.
Beautiful photo.
Dear GMC and Father Victor, have a Happy Feast Day to two examples of saints who not only talk the talk, but walk the walk in Christ. And show us how to do it for ourselves! My sincerest thanks and prayers to you both.
We are just walking in grace, as you are.
Dear GMC, Thank you for your reflection. It Inspires us to dream and dream again. From Pope Francis today on Twitter: “Do not be afraid to set your sights higher, to allow yourself to be loved and liberated by God. Do not be afraid to let yourself be guided by the Holy Spirit. Holiness… is an encounter between your weakness and the power of God’s grace.”
A great cloud of witnesses who have gone before us
