Blessed are the eyes that see what you see.

The words Jesus spoke to his original disciples apply all the more to us who have received his Holy Spirit and who regularly enjoy his presence in the holy Eucharist and the sacramental life. Moreover, we are his church, "always advancing toward the plenitude of divine truth" (Dei Verbum, paragraph 8). We are the beneficiaries of two millennia of Christian witness, our knowledge of the Lord enhanced and shaped by saints uncounted through whom Jesus continues to build the kingdom. May the abundant blessings of our God empower us to carry forward the mission now entrusted to us.

*For love and zeal to be effective disciples of the Lord, we pray.
