Thank you for joining me again this week. Last Thursday we reflected on the second charism of the congregation, Unity, rooted in the Holy Trinity and mirrored for us in the Holy Family.

Today, we'll continue our reflection of this charism putting our focus on the Holy Family ... and our own families as well.
