St. Alphonsus Liguori Quote
Those who pray are certainly saved; those who do not pray are certainly damned.
Essentials for the Spiritual Life
There are small, practical things we can do to make a big impact on our spiritual life. First, we need to prioritize prayer. Second, we need to live in community with one another. As Mother Teresa once said, we belong to each other.
How to Find Community Where You Are
- Pray for it and trust God will provide
- Prioritize it and look for it
- When the door is open, walk through it
