Being Catholic:
Being Catholic…means engaging ourselves courageously, in mind, will and body, in the work of Christ. This work is to unite all things in Christ and so bring everything to the fullness for which it was created.
**************************************************************************************
On the cross Christ said: "Woman, behold your son!" With these words He opened in a new way His Mother's heart. A little later, the Roman soldier's spear pierced the side of the Crucified One. That pierced heart became a sign of the redemption achieved through the death of the Lamb of God. The Immaculate Heart of Mary, opened with the words "Woman, behold, your son!" is spiritually united with the heart of her Son opened by the soldier's spear.
- Pope John Paul II the Great (On the Immaculate Heart of Mary - 13 May, 1982)
