Today’s Reflection: Peace is not the product of terror or fear. Peace is not the silence of cemeteries. Peace is not the silent result of violent repression. Peace is the generous, tranquil contribution of all to the good of all. Peace is dynamism. Peace is generosity. It is right and it is duty. — Saint Oscar Romero

Today’s Reflection: Jesus,
Teach me to love everyone
Like you did.
When I struggle,
I ask for the courage
To pause,
To listen,
To feel,
To re-think,
And to change
Again and again.
Amen. — Katie Davis-Crowder
