God has the power to change everything—water into blood, water into wine, wine into His precious blood at every Mass. But the greatest transformation He desires is in you. The question is: Will you give Him permission?
🙏 Open your heart today. Surrender. Let Jesus change your life.
Pray this with me: “Dear Lord, I give You permission to change my heart.”

Jesus wasn’t just a nice guy who told us to love one another—He was deeply religious. In Matthew 5:17-19, Jesus tells us He came not to abolish the law, but to fulfill it. Yet, in today’s world, religion is often seen as rigid or outdated. Have we forgotten that Jesus fasted, observed holy days, wore religious garments, and followed rituals?
This Lent, let’s reflect on what it truly means to follow Christ. Are we embracing the fullness of faith He lived and taught?
📖 Watch now and rediscover who Jesus really is. #Lent #Jesus #CatholicFaith

Happy Solemnity of the Annunciation! Today, we celebrate the moment the angel Gabriel appeared to Mary, and she said “yes” to bringing Jesus into the world. Mary is the new Ark of the Covenant—carrying within her the High Priest, the Bread of Life, and the fulfillment of the Law.
But this feast isn’t just about Mary’s role—it’s about ours too. When we receive Jesus in the Eucharist, we are called to bring Him into the world. Where is God inviting you to carry His presence, even in silence?
Join us as we reflect on the beauty of the Annunciation, the significance of the Ark of the Covenant, and our own mission to bring Christ into the world. Watch now and be inspired!

Stop Trying to Fit In—Jesus Didn’t! | Rise Up Day 20
Monday Mar 24, 2025
Monday Mar 24, 2025
Why do we try so hard to fit in when Jesus calls us to stand out? 🤔 In today’s Gospel, Jesus shows us that being different is okay—in fact, it’s necessary. A prophet isn’t accepted in their own town, and as followers of Christ, we won’t always be accepted either. But you’re not alone—Christ and the saints walk with you. Will you have the courage to stand firm in your faith? 🙏
