Blessed are the poor in spirit,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.
Blessed are they who mourn,
for they will be comforted.
Blessed are the meek,
for they will inherit the land.
Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
for they will be satisfied.
Blessed are the merciful,
for they will be shown mercy.
Blessed are the clean in heart,
for they will see God.
Blessed are the peacemakers,
for they will be called children of God.
Blessed are they who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness,
for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

God's Valentines for You
♥ No one has loved you longer than I have:

before you were conceived,
before all time began...
♥ No one holds you closer than I do:
I'm right by your side 24/7/365,
I'm truly your BFF...
♥ No one loves you more faithfully than I do:
my love for you is unfailing,
I love you with no strings attached...
♥ No one loves you more wisely than I do:
I guide you through all of your troubles,
my wisdom and counsel are my gifts to you...
♥ No one loves you more mercifully than I do:
I freely forgive you and forgive you again,
I'll always give you a new beginning ...
♥ No one loves you more deeply than I do:
I dwell in your heart of hearts,
I make my home in the depths of your soul...
♥ No one loves you more joyfully than I do,
I delight in the person I made you to be,
I love you more than you know or imagine...
♥ No one loves you more passionately than I do,
I gave my Beloved out of love for you:
now I call you my chosen, my child, my own...
♥ No one loves you more graciously than I do:
I love you more than anyone else ever has,
ever can, ever could, ever will...
♥ No one loves you more fully than I do
for indeed, I Am Love: I abide in you
and you in me, for ever and ever. Amen.

Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament this Wednesday and Thursday will begin at 10AM. Benediction… https://t.co/l4C6IliboK
In the Cross our hope is reborn. Hope born of the Cross is different from that of the world, because it is born of the love of Jesus.
The Christian who does not feel that the Virgin Mary is his or her mother is an orphan.
From the cross, Christ teaches us to love even those who do not love us.
God’s love is unbounded: it has no limits!
When we do not adore God, we adore something else. Money and power are false idols which often take the place of God.
Book Club will review St. John Paul the Great Thurs. 8/14 @ 11AM @ the Coronado Lib.-Conference Rm. Questions: Pearl 871-3278.
The great threat in today’s world is the loneliness of hearts oppressed by greed.
