Reflections of Family and Faith
"The family that prays together stays together." - Venerable Patrick Peyton
Marriage | family life | love
It’s one thing to marry, it’s another to keep the love alive over decades. Longtime-married couples have much to teach other couples, married or not, but perhaps even more to teach people starting on their marriage journey. Family Theater Productions, which brought you Catholic Central, PRAY: THE STORY OF PATRICK PEYTON and The Dating Project debuts a new YouTube series that visits with long-term spouses offering advice and encouragement on keeping their vows truly “until death do us part.”

This week, the Church gave us the opportunity to reflect on the lives of different holy men and women. We had the memorial of St. Vincent, Deacon and Martyr; we celebrated St. Francis de Sales, Bishop and Doctor of the Church; we celebrated the Conversion of St. Paul the Apostle; and today is the Memorial of Sts. Timothy and Titus, close collaborators in mission with St. Paul the Apostle.

Celebrating family life | Love thy Neighbor
Family is the foundation of human society. Most of our daily activities revolve around this beautiful entity called ‘family.’ It is in fact, our identity. It is said, ‘there are five balls that we juggle in life: family, health, work, friends, and spiritual life. Among these five, only work is made of rubber, the rest all are made of glass - if we drop any of them, they could be fragile.’

On this day of prayer for the legal protection of unborn children, we’re reminded of the temptation to doubt God. In today’s gospel, the scribes from Jerusalem were considered more respected than the Pharisees. And so, it was significant for them to make a claim that Jesus was both possessed by the devil and using Satan’s power to drive out demons.
