Every one of us should take the time to escape and find a way to push aside the demands of the world and focus on our faith and relationship with God. In his book Abide in the Heart of Christ, Father Joe Laramie walks readers through a 10-day retreat with St. Ignatius of Loyola as a companion. Join us as we discuss how to encounter Christ in your daily life, and live more fully in his love each day. FInd his book here.

Courage grows when we remember to keep our eyes on Jesus.
