Honoring Strength, Hope, and Eternal Compassion

​Today is a deeply meaningful confluence—a day dedicated to honoring widows alongside the Feast Day of Saint Teresa of Calcutta.

​Mother Teresa once said, “If you judge people, you have no time to love them.” Her life was a masterclass in seeing the unseen, comforting the forgotten, and holding the hands of those carrying heavy hearts.

​Widows walk a path paved with profound grief, yet paved equally with resilience, quiet courage, and enduring grace. To honor widows today is to acknowledge the love that survives loss, the courage it takes to rebuild life from heartbreak, and the sacred duty we all share to ensure no one feels abandoned or forgotten in their suffering.

​Let today be a reminder of the power of small, intentional acts of kindness. ​To every widow: Your strength does not go unnoticed. Your capacity to love after loss is a testament to the human spirit.

​To all of us: May we carry forward the spirit of Mother Teresa—not by doing grand things, but by doing small things with great love.

​Reach out to someone who is grieving today. Offer a listening ear, a warm meal, or a simple "I am thinking of you." Let us be the comforting presence that brings hope where sorrow resides.

🔥 Deacon's Mailbag Tuesday

📖 How to Choose and Read the Bible

✝️ What Kind of Bible Should I Get?
The obvious answer: get a Catholic Bible.

A Catholic Bible contains the complete canon of Scripture received by the Catholic Church, including the Deuterocanonical books of the Old Testament.

These books were part of the Greek Old Testament tradition (the Septuagint) widely used by early Christians. During the Protestant Reformation, Martin Luther and later Protestant traditions rejected these seven books from the Old Testament canon. If you're interested in the history of the biblical canon, this is a fascinating subject to study!

📚 How Should I Read the Bible?

Remember: Catholicism is not “either/or” — it is “both/and.”

1. Know the Context
Don't begin by simply pulling out a random verse.
Choose a book of the Bible and learn:
Who wrote it?
When was it written?
Who was it written to?
Why was it written?
Read the introduction or preface to that book before beginning.

2. Read the Old and New Testaments Together
We read the New Testament as the fulfillment of the Old Testament.
We also read the Old Testament in light of the New Testament.

Ask:
How does this Old Testament passage point toward Christ?
How does this New Testament passage fulfill God's promises in the Old Testament?

3. Begin With Prayer 🙏
Ask the Holy Spirit to guide your reading.
Pray for wisdom and discernment.
Ask God:
What are You trying to show me?
How are You calling me to grow?
How can I live this Word in my life?

4. Take Your Time
Don't feel like you have to understand everything immediately. Find a reading method that works for you. Read slowly and reflect.

The goal isn't simply to finish the Bible—the goal is to encounter God and have a relationship with Him. ❤️ Finally, Enjoy It!

Reading Scripture should bring joy, peace, and a desire to know God more deeply.

We will never exhaust the richness of God's Word.
This side of heaven, there will always be more to discover about:
God's love for us
Jesus Christ
The Holy Spirit
God's plan for our lives

WORDS FROM ST. AUGUSTINE OF HIPPO ❤️‍🔥
On his feast day, we reflect on the wisdom of Saint Augustine of Hippo, whose life and writings continue to inspire generations in their search for God, truth, and the meaning of life. His mother St. Monica prayed for his continuously. From his reflections on faith and love to his journey of conversion, his words remind us that the human heart finds its true rest in God.
