"Why be Catholic?" III

The undisputed evangelical truth ...


"No member of the Catholic Church faces the struggles of life alone.

"We follow those who have gone before us in faith, striving to share the Good News of Jesus through their words and actions.

"First among our models of faith is the Blessed Virgin Mary, the perfect disciple.

"She embraced God's will for her, kept the Word of God in her heart, and followed Jesus even to the foot of the Cross.

"Along with Mary, we share the fellowship of the Communion of Saints.

"The saints are men and women of all nations who lived the Christian life with fidelity and courage.

"They help us to see the path that will lead us to eternal life with God..." 

Way to go, padre! :)
