"Mission is a duty about which one must say ‘Woe to me
if I do not evangelize’ (1 Corinthians 9:16)...redemption and
mission are acts of love [because] those who proclaim the
Gospel participate in the charity of Christ."
--Pope Francis |

help make that a reality?
How much time do you spend complaining about what’s wrong with
the Church verses doing something about the problems?
When is the last time you volunteered for a faith based event
in your area?

The Kitchen Madonna:
Patroness of The
Catholic View for Women
Mary was not only Jesus' Mother, but also a housewife.
Her utensils are earthly and heavenly symbols. The key
represents the safety in the house and also the way
into heaven. The kettle symbolizes nourishment for
body and soul. The broom represents cleanliness in the
home and in thoughts and deeds.
