Baptism invites us to submit our hearts and wills to Christ, embarking on a journey of deepening love and faithfulness. What better time than now to renew our Baptismal vows? We need to recommit ourselves to living in imitation of Christ, walking in his Light and Wisdom, and rejecting Satan and his evil ways at all costs.
As we move toward the reopening of the country, we need to be taking a long, hard look at ourselves and how COVID-19 has changed us.
Who would have thought a few weeks ago that we’d be facing the reality of empty store shelves? Or the suspension of holy Mass and the other Sacraments? Or the isolation of quarantine and social distancing? COVID-19 has caused many inconveniences in our daily lives to say the least. Here are practical ways to not just survive through these times, but to thrive through them.
“From the baptismal fonts is born the one People of God of the New Covenant, which transcends all the natural or human limits of nations, cultures, races, and sexes.” (CCC 1267)
