Minute Meditations

St. Francis of Assisi understood the spiritual and psychological toll that life could bring.

The true meaning of heaven points to the union that we have with our loved ones and all the saints.

Like Christ, who died upon another tree, our beloved oak tree had to expire in order to inspire.

We believe God the Holy Spirit to be our advocate, the one who inspires and guides us on our journey of faith.

Perhaps Saint Teresa of Avila’s greatest gift to busy people is the truth that ordinary life and holiness are not in conflict.

The practice of solitude uncovers and heightens that uniqueness, and fraternal life deepens in the respect and support the brothers give to each one’s unique aloneness.
