We Are Signs And Bearers of God's Love for the Young!

HAPPY FEAST DAY TO ALL SALESIANS AND ALL THOSE WHO SUPPORT US!

Today is the Feast Day of St. Francis de Sales, he whose spirituality Don Bosco found so beautiful and fitting for his boys that he named his congregation after him--Salesians. What a wonderful day to recommit ourselves to that Christian joy that Christ calls us to, that St. Francis de Sales calls us to! Especially today being the day after the Pro-Life March in Washington, there is much to rejoice over--for the Lord has given us life! And He has given us this life that we might follow Him and have life abundantly, life to the fullest with Him for all of eternity!

How much do we desire eternity? Do we long for it? Do we taste of its sweetness in the Eucharist? Do we run to our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament and fall to our knees in amazement of His eternal and glorious Body?

Let us recommit ourselves this day to be fearless of everything and everyone but the Lord, that we might fully glorify Him with our lives.

Be who you are and be that well.
St. Francis de Sales
