Tuesday 7 to Monday 13 September 2010 - People helping people, providing for need, providing hospitality. The same spirit of generosity we see in neighbours helping neighbours after the Christchurch earthquake. All the best for a great week. |

Quote of the week:
How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world. - Anne Frank Suzanne Aubert, who might just turn out to be New Zealand's first saint, has the following advice for the week ahead: Tuesday - Mortify your senses and you will soon see a change in yourself, and a great facility in doing good.
Wednesday - Mortification is absolutely necessary for the success of prayer.
Thursday - It is always through our fault that we lose Jesus, and how are we to find Him again? In searching for Him? Yes.
Friday - The troubles and trials which we meet on our way are most useful to purify our heart; they are the true penance, the true crucifixion of the Christian.
Saturday - Let us reserve nothing for self, but let us give ourselves unreservedly to the service of those who suffer.
Sunday - Mortification is the measure of love, the touchstone of holiness.
Monday - There is no less eloquence in the tone of the voice, in the eyes, in the expression of the face of anyone, than in the most persuasive words.
