Good Company



Most Reverend Daniel Jenkey, Bishop of Peoria
(click picture for text of homily)

We must marvel--too often these days, it seems!--how the Acts of the Apostles, chapters from so long ago, eloquently speak to our modern times. Peter and John, then, and Daniel, now, will not be silenced. (Acts 4:18-20.)

“The days in which we live now require heroic Catholicism, not casual Catholicism.”

(Bishop Daniel Jenkey, Peoria) 

To Make Our Voices Heard

From DAY 8 of the Novena:

Enable us, then, to speak up
and educate our fellow citizens,
and to make our voices heard to our elected officials.

Just weeks ago, then Cardinal-designate Timothy Dolan, president of the U.S. Conference of Bishops, spoke in plain terms about the need to make our voices heard.

Faithful Servants

In speaking out on the subject of religious freedom, the U.S. Bishops are faithfully serving in their role as priest, prophet, king - as must we all!
