What are your gifts and how can you bring them to bear--TODAY--on the problems facing our country? Are you a writer? A speaker? Do you have the gift of intercessory prayer or hospitality? Do you have the ability to give sacrificially?
"Now there are varieties of gifts, but the same Spirit. And there are varieties of ministries, and the same Lord. There are varieties of effects, but the same God who works all things in all persons. But to each one is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good." I Corinthians 12: 4-7
"From everyone who has been given much, much will be required; and to whom they entrusted much, of him they will ask all the more. I have come to cast fire upon the earth; and how I wish it were already kindled!" Luke 12:48-49 ...

"Racism is a sin. Full stop. It is a sin that people go to hell over and it is a sin that deeply offends our God.
If you do not want to hear it from me, maybe you’ll hear it from the Catechism of the Catholic Church."I am going to try to be lovingly real for a moment.
Racism is a sin. Full stop. It is a sin that people go to hell over and it is a sin that deeply offends our God.
If you do not want to hear it from me, maybe you’ll hear it from the Catechism of the Catholic Church.
“The equality of men rests essentially on their dignity as persons and the rights that flow from it:
Every form of social or cultural discrimination in fundamental personal rights on the grounds of sex, race, color, social conditions, language, or religion must be curbed and eradicated as incompatible with God's design.” C.C.C 1935
“There exist also sinful inequalities that affect millions of men and women. These are in open contradiction of the Gospel: Their equal dignity as persons demands that we strive for fairer and more humane conditions. Excessive economic and social disparity between individuals and peoples of the one human race is a source of scandal and militates against social justice, equity, human dignity, as well as social and international peace.” C.C.C. 1938
Now, maybe you’re thinking, why are you sharing this? I already know racism is a sin!
I am sharing because I think many have grown numb.
I am sharing because I think many try to make justifications for this heinous sin because it is easier than admitting it exists.
I share because racism takes the lives of people of color and rots the souls of the living.
I share this because I have a voice and every time someone loses theirs, I am reminded of how vital it is to use mine.
I share this because it is my duty. The world is rotting because of silence.
Pray for the souls of those who died at the hands of racism. Grieve. Mourn.
But please, don’t stop there.
God gave us hearts to love and hands to do His work.
Our Lady of the Americas, pray for us. ...
