For God so loved the world, as to give His only begotten Son; that whosoever believeth in Him, may not perish, but may have life everlasting. – Saint John the Apostle

Saint Quote: Saint Basil the Great


The bread which you use is the bread of the hungry; the garment hanging in your wardrobe is the garment of him who is naked; the shoes you do not wear are the shoes of the one who is barefoot; the acts of charity that you do not perform are so many injustices that you commit.

--Saint Basil the Great

How can it concern you to know of what stock I am? If you want to know my religion, I will tell you--I am a Christian, and am bound by Christian obligations. I am called Alban by my parents, and I worship and adore the true and living God, who created all things.

Saint Quote: Saint Richard of Chichester


Satisfaction consists in the cutting off of the causes of the sin. Thus, fasting is the proper antidote to lust; prayer to pride, to envy, anger and sloth; alms to covetousness.

Saint Quote: Saint Peter Julian Eymard


Every time we come into the presence of the Eucharist we may say: This precious Testament cost Jesus Christ His life. For the Eucharist is a testament, a legacy which becomes valid only at the death of the testator. Our Lord thereby shows us His boundless love, for He Himself said there is no greater proof of love than to lay down one's life for one's friends.

--Saint Peter Julian Eymard
