“My resolution for you is this – never miss Mass.”
Bishop Rice (2015)
“My resolution for you is this – never miss Mass.”
The entire ministry team came together this morning to discuss the fruits of the Holy Spirit. Each team member took two minutes to describe where they see specific fruits (Love, Peace, Patience, Faithfulness, Self-Control, Chastity) revealed in their own lives.
We would like to invite you to listen to these powerful witnesses. In fact, don’t just listen. Be a part of the experience, as you pray with each speaker and reflect with the music.
“Chastity is not about the past; it’s about the present and the future. Anyone at any time can choose chastity. Chastity brings freedom.”
When we as Catholics imagine the Holy Sprit, we almost always think about Confirmation. For those who’ve received the Sacrament, you might remember oil on your face or that saint name; you know, the one you haven’t prayed to in a while? Maybe all you can recall is the worldly gifts you received from your parents and sponsor. But not many of us remember the spiritual gifts that were offered to us by God’s own outstretched hands. As Steubenville speaker Paul J. Kim put it, “We don’t understand spiritual gifts, because many of us have no idea who the Holy Spirit truly is.”
“If you fall, get back up. Never, never, never, never give up.”
