Living with Christ
“Untie him…”
The pope’s intention for March
Prayer in the morning
Gospel canticles • The gospel canticles (or “songs”) come from Luke’s gospel. In honor of the mystery of the Incarnation (to which all three refer), it is customary to make the sign of the cross as the canticle begins and to stand while it is sung.
Prayer in the evening
March 2023
The power of one truth
“I thirst for you” • St. Teresa of Calcutta (1940-1997), born in today’s Republic of Macedonia, was internationally famed for her humanitarian work. This meditation by St. Teresa, written in the imagined words of Jesus, reminds us that Jesus speaks to us, as he spoke to the Samaritan woman, offering us living water and his enduring love.
That thing with feathers • Find a quiet spot to read, reflect, and pray. You may record your thoughts in a prayer journal, or share your responses with others in a group.
