Being present this Lent

April 10, 2019
By Rita Buettner
Filed Under: Commentary, Lent, The Domestic Church

Were we present at Jesus’ crucifixion? We were, and we are. We can place ourselves in that moment, meditating again on the tremendous sacrifice Jesus made for each of us on the cross. We were there. This Lent we are there.

By Archbishop William E. Lori

A little lesson in trust

March 19, 2019
By Rita Buettner
Filed Under: Commentary, The Domestic Church

Sometimes the large, life-changing moments are the ones that show us we need to turn everything over to God. Sometimes it’s the flat tire or a snowstorm derailing our plans. But each time we have an opportunity to come away trusting Jesus a little bit more.
