Daily Eucharist Quote – St. Thomas Aquinas

"The greatest devotion is called for at the moment of receiving this sacrament, because it is then that the effect of the sacrament is bestowed, and such devotion is hindered more by what goes before it than by what comes after it. And therefore it was ordained that men should fast before receiving the sacrament [...]

Daily Virtue Quote – Ven. Fulton Sheen

"Our happiness consists in fulfilling the purpose of our being. Every man knows, from his own unfulfilled hunger for them, that he was built with a capacity for three things of which he never has enough.

Daily Virtue Quote – St. Faustina
