Saint of the Day

Sts. Philip and James (1st century)
Apostles. Philip was a disciple of St. John the Baptist. James was the brother of St. Jude Thaddeus and a cousin of Jesus. Both were martyrs.

Reflections from the Saints

Pray with great confidence, with confidence based upon the goodness and infinite generosity of God and upon the promises of Jesus Christ. God is a spring of living water which flows unceasingly into the hearts of those who pray.

Life in Christ: Catechism #2235

Those who exercise authority should do so as a service. "Whoever would be great among you must be your servant." The exercise of authority is measured morally in terms of its divine origin, its reasonable nature and its specific object. No one can command or establish what is contrary to the dignity of persons and the natural law.
