FEAST OF ST. GREGORY THE GREAT

(Preach on, Brother!)

"Let us stir up our faith and fan the desire for heavenly things, for to love thus is already to share. Let no adversity distract us from such inner joy, no earthly prosperity seduce us from that goal.  Foolish indeed are the travelers who let the sight of pleasant fields along the way make them forget their destination.”

From Homilies on the Gospels
