Kneel Down
“On entering a church, or in passing before the altar, kneel down all the way without haste or hurry, putting your heart into what you do, and let your whole attitude say, ‘Thou art the great God.’ It is an act of humility, an act of truth, and everytime you kneel it will do your soul good.” ~ Fr. Romano Guardini
Year of Mercy Calendar for Today: “Begin a family faith devotion ~ saying prayers together, reading scripture, watching a saint movie.”
