From Calcutta to New York with love – West Villa

From Calcutta to New York with love – West Village, New York City – It’s exactly, I mean EXACTLY the same. The Missionaries of Charity bring the legacy of unconditional love to those abandoned by society everywhere they can be found.

Quick story; I had a conversation with a 22 year old young man about life (he wasn’t Catholic). I made a reference to Mother Teresa regarding what charity meant, and he said “Who?” I went on to describe her and Calcutta and her wrinkles…and he still had absolutely no idea who she was…

Let that sink in.

The richness and beauty of the church are so epically underreported that the culture has become ignorant.

We can, and WE need to change that.

Social media, as demonized as it is, offers each and every one of us a platform. A platform to share our Faith. And present the life altering, ultimately fulfilling Truth, that is Love Incarnate.

I challenge you to embrace that reality, and speak. YOU are called.

What would St. Paul do if he had an Instagram account?

Speak Truth. Speak Love. Speak Charity.

But Speak!

On these city’s streets – New York, NY – Franciscan Friars of the Renewal – From their humble origins in a dilapidated house in the South Bronx in the 1980’s, was born a movement.

A movement of renewal.

Renewal for the church. Renewal for the city. And renewal for each and every one of us.

As the Friars and Sisters of the CFR’s take their vows and take their place in the world for the salvation of all. They carry on the work passed on to them from the holy men and women that preceded them.

The Catholic Church is a church of renewal. Renewal of hope, of charity, and a renewal of devotion to the True Faith.

Grace – Basilica Cathedral of St. Peter and St. Paul – For those who have experienced Christ’s Presence, everything changes.

What was once considered important pales against the Joy of knowing Him.

The things of this world are seen as fleeting, and love for others takes on a new meaning.

But the Love we encounter places demands. Demands that we often struggle to meet because of our brokenness.

But these demands come from Love Incarnate. These demands guide us, His wayward children, to our ultimate Joy…if only we would cooperate with them…

But perhaps that’s the eternal struggle we all face, and in that, we are fellow travelers on this rocky road to salvation.

We can help each other through prayer, and by lending an ear, or a shoulder when it seems that we don’t have the strength to carry on.

So understand this from a fellow, broken, traveler like you. He offers the Grace we often reject, but He also offers His Mercy.

Never tire from asking Him for it. From experience, He never tires from giving it.

In infinite abundance...

Fatherhood – South Bronx, NYC – A man prays with his two sons outside an abortion clinic on the streets of NYC.

No doubt they were freezing. The wind brutally whipped down Southern Blvd. that morning. But they stayed for every decade of the Rosary….and prayed.

Fathers matter.

In their unique role they have the opportunity to show what strength, manhood and faithfulness means.

Faithfulness to their marriage vows, to their family, and to Christ.

The world needs faithful fathers now, more than ever…

Pray for them. The war to destroy them is real.
