Contemplation: Our Labor of Love

On the very first page of our Rule you will find a truly remarkable statement: “No work of charity is foreign to the Society.” [Rule, Pt.

Within the community of charitable and philanthropic organizations, there also tends to…

Contemplation: God’s Gift, Wrapped in Humility

Have you ever seen somebody, puffed up with himself, stride into a room, clearly expecting to be the center of attention? Sometimes we hear people mutter, “He thinks he’s God’s gift to us…” It’s a shame that this expression is used as a derisive commentary on personal vanity, because, when you think about it, aren’t…

Contemplation: From That Time on, How Could I Not Love Them?
