Ever wondered why today's saint is known as the "Doctor of Grace"? 💭 Not only did St. Augustine defend our total dependence on God's grace in our journey toward salvation—but his radical conversion also bore witness to this reality! 🎇 On this feast, let's trust that God will use even our shortcomings for our good!

Did you know that St. Monica's Christlike way of life converted not only St. Augustine but also her husband and mother-in-law?! 💪 May our lives, like hers, shine with Christ's love and redemption! 💓 On this feast day, let's pray to entrust our loved ones to Jesus, who lovingly holds their lives in his hands.

After countless disciples turn away, Jesus turns to his apostles.    Imagine the exasperation - the pain - in the Sacred Heart, seeing so many renounce him.    “Will you leave, too?” he asks.    But Peter replies in one of the most beautiful acts of faith in history: “Master, to whom shall we go? YOU have the words of eternal life.”    We, like Peter, are invited to make an act of faith today.    Jesus is truth, peace, love, life, all-goodness.    Where shall we go?  To him, or somewhere else?    #ScriptureSunday

"Apart from the cross, there is no other ladder by which we may get to heaven." - St. Rose of Lima Think about it: how often do we try to achieve holiness and virtue without asking God's help? How often do we rely on our own strength, only to end up frustrated? 👀 On this feast of St. Rose of Lima, let's take a moment to invite Jesus to help us say "yes" to his will! 🙏 He never wanted us to do this alone!

"To serve the Queen of Heaven is already to reign there, and to live under her commands is more than to govern." - St. John Vianney On this feast day, let's ask Our Lady to be the queen of our hearts, our minds, and our lives! 👑
