One of the most famous quotes attributed to St. Augustine is, “He who sings well, prays twice.” By ‘well’ the Doctor of the Church meant with our whole being. He knew that when singing is done as a full-hearted offering to God it becomes prayer. This is why music is an essential part of Catholic worship.
Canterbury House hosts a growing community of mutual aid & neighborhood support for migrant families![]() What began with a pregnant woman coming to the door for help, has become so much more. Through a collaboration with Mary, Mother of God Parish and the Catholic Lawyers Guild of Chicago, Canterbury House serves as a temporary home of Maricarmen, Jean Pool, and their four children. The family is originally from Venezuela, but after a grueling multi-year journey recently arrived in the United States. Their story is not unique. Thousands have fled unrest in Central and South America seeking safety and stability. All new arrivals are looking for basic necessities but also to build connections in their new city. This is why Christians must rise to the occasion. As Christ said in Matthew's Gospel, “For I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, a stranger and you welcomed me." 12/17/2023 0 Comments Convivium Marianum 2023
"A great sign appeared in the sky, a woman clothed with the sun,
with the moon under her feet, and on her head a crown of twelve stars."
