"Values, Hopes and Dreams"

Trying to get motivated and energetic during these days is a task that many find difficult. The task for us is to get out of such a rut and begin to make something happen for us. It is about widening the horizon in terms of things to do.

The Twelfth Day of Christmas

St. John Neumann
John Nepomucene Neumann was born on March 28, 1811, the third of six children of a stocking knitter and his wife in the village of Prachatitz in Bohemia. From his mother he acquired the spirit of piety and through her encouragement entered the Seminary at Budweis.

In 1840, John Neumann entered the Congregation of the Most Holy Redeemer (Redemptorists). He labored in Ohio, Pennsylvania and Maryland. In 1852, he was consecrated bishop of Philadelphia. There he worked hard for the establishment of parish schools and for the erection of many parishes for the numerous immigrants. Bishop Neumann died on January 5, 1860; he was beatified in 1963.

If I have gotten one thing from the Gospels, it is that love is manifested in service. Our faith calls us to love each other as Jesus loved us. In his letter, John reminds us that Jesus loved us so much, he laid down his life for us. So too we must be willing to lay our lives down for others.

"The way we came to know love was that he laid down his life for us; so we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers... Children, let us love not in word or speech but in deed and truth." -1 John 3:16,18
