Thoughts for the Week

The future may seem uncertain, and it can be very worrisome for many
of us. For the Church, our hope for the future is from God. Our
blessings are from God, and we pass on words of grace and
compassion because of the grace and compassion that God first gave

encourage others about their future? Think on these things this week.
