The Church needs…
The Church needs a perennial Pentecost. She needs fire in her heart, words on her lips, prophecy in her outlook.
–Pope Paul VI (1897-1978)
The Church of…
The Church of Christ is always, so to speak, in a situation of Pentecost: she is always gathered in the Upper Room in prayer, and at the same time, driven by the powerful wind of the Spirit, she is always on the streets preaching.
–Saint John Paul (1920-2005)
God loves each of us…
God loves each of us as if there were only one of us.
–Saint Augustine (354-430)
Do and pray…
Do what you can and pray for what you cannot yet do.
–Saint Augustine (354-430)
If God seems slow…
If God seems slow in responding, it is because He is preparing a better gift. He will not deny us. God withholds what you are not yet ready for. He wants you to have a lively desire for His greatest gifts. All of which is to say, pray always and do not lose heart.
–Saint Augustine (354-430)
Taught to pray…
So that we might obtain this life of happiness, he who is true life itself taught us to pray, not in many words as though speaking longer could gain us a hearing. After all, we pray to one who, as the Lord himself tells us, knows what we need before we ask for it.
–Saint Augustine (354-430)
