Saint John Eudes Quote

We must continue to accomplish in ourselves the stages of Jesus' life and his mysteries and often to beg him to perfect and realize them in us and in his whole Church. . . . For it is the plan of the Son of God to make us and the whole Church partake in his mysteries and to extend them to and continue them in us and in his whole Church. This is his plan for fulfilling his mysteries in us.

-- Saint John Eudes

Saint Anthony of Padua Quote

Christians must lean on the Cross of Christ just as travelers lean on a staff when they begin a long journey.

-- Saint Anthony of Padua
