Headlines TUESDAY HOMILY: The Little Path to Greatness By Fr. Roger J. Landry | August 13, 2013 St. Therese Lisieux helps us to understand and put into practice Jesus' words that if we want to be great in his kingdom we must become like a child. In response to the disciples' question, "Who is the greatest in the Kingdom of heaven?," Jesus called a child over and said, "Whoever becomes humble like this child is the greatest in the Kingdom of heaven." For us to live the Year of Faith well, we must be more childlike in our practice of the faith. Continue Reading... Deacons of the Archdiocese of Denver: Sign of Hope for the Catholic Church By Deacon Joseph Donohoe | August 13, 2013 The need for Deacons to be contemplative is now reflected in the formation program where in the first year, men seeking the vocational call will be "dedicated" to contemplation and deep discernment. This is so important to the life of the Church, that our Archbishop has given us the gift of a full time Spiritual Director for men in formation. Father Dennis Brown, an OVM, who is well versed in spirituality and will help guide the men throughout their formation.  Taxes, Citizenship, Discipleship, Freedom and Faith By Fr. Stephen B. Reynolds | August 13, 2013 The disciples enjoy "the freedom of the children of God" (Romans 8:21). Far from being as exercise in human willfulness, this freedom orients a person's life to the willing and whole-hearted embrace of the will of God. We are called to live "not by constraint, but willingly" (I Peter 5:2). The true exercise of Christian freedom causes the believer to act from the depth of his will in joyful union with God's law and providence. Continue Reading... Rest in Peace Pro-Life Champion: Fr.

This was a man who served our nation constantly, whether in the key positions he held in President Ronald Reagan's cabinet, or in the countless ways in which, behind the scenes, he defended the very principles on which the nation was founded.

Greenwell, Esq. | August 13, 2013 Awarding the Presidential Medal of Freedom to an unworthy recipient such as Gloria Steinem tarnishes not only the medal, but the entire country. Abortion, an unspeakable moral crime, is now a centerpiece of one of our National political parties, and a priority of our Citizen-in-Chief. The evil has become so institutionalized that its advocacy is now to be given a place of honor through the bestowal of the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian honor. This is not even an evil to be tolerated, but a good to be promoted.  Miracle in Missouri: Mysterious Priest Appears at Accident Scene, Prays for Healing and Disappears By Deacon Keith Fournier | August 12, 2013 That's when a priest appeared out of nowhere."He came up and approached the patient, and offered a prayer. It was a Catholic priest who had anointing oil with him. A sense of calmness came over her, and it did us as well. I can't be for certain how it was said, but myself and another firefighter, we very plainly heard that we should remain calm, that our tools would now work and that we would get her out of that vehicle.Where did this guy come from? We're looking for the priest and so far, no one has seen him. Whether it was a priest as an angel or an actual angel, he was an angel to all those and to Katie. We would like to find this gentleman and be able to thank him," Continue Reading... Pope Francis greets Muslims and urges both Christians and Muslims to promote mutual respect.

Downward Mobility, the Cross and the Compassionate Life By Deacon Keith Fournier | August 10, 2013 The Gospel (Matt. 16:24-28) speaks to us of denying ourselves.
