“Always remain close to the Catholic Church, because it alone can give you true peace, since it alone possesses Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, the true Prince of Peace.” -St. Padre Pio

Good Suffering and Friday

Most people live by a calendar, but what about the liturgical calendar? The Catholic Church celebrates and remembers many important people, events and seasons throughout the year. Jeff Cavins explains what some of these important days and seasons are and how we can live our lives according to the liturgical calendar.

By following God’s calendar, we will not waste time and energy. Rather, we will be focused on his will rather than our own.
