Daily Eucharist Quote – St. John Vianney

"Do not say that you are not worthy. What nonsense! It is true you are not worthy, but you are in need. If our Saviour had had our worthiness in view He would never have instituted His beautiful Sacrament of love, because no one in the world, not even the Saints nor the Angels, nor [...]

[...]

Daily Virtue Quote – St. Hildegard of Bingen

"So let the person of faith do too.  Let him leave childish behavior and grow up to fullness of virtue and persevere in its strength, leaving the pride of desire, which pants after foolish vice; but let him with anxious care meditate what may be useful for him, though before he stooped childishly to childish [...]
