Minute Meditations

This saint reminds us that, in our own way, we carry Christ on our shoulders and in our hearts across mighty rivers.

For decades, the saints have been my mentors in prayer, faith companions whom the centuries cannot separate, beloved friends.

I spend my last night of my pilgrimage to Italy on the balcony of my hotel room drinking wine and looking up at a heavy sky.

The answer God promises to give to you or me will be unique to each of us.

In intercessory prayer, I speak to God on behalf of another and their petition, be it a person, situation, or a community.

Clare’s name means “light.” She is the bright, shining one who reflected God’s love into the world.
