[Rebroadcast}: "With all your heart, mind, soul and strength": Our Need for Adoration

"Come away by yourselves to a secluded place and rest a while."  These words of Jesus Christ are an invitation to personal and intimate prayer.

By regular meditation and dialogue with Our Lord in prayer, our life can be transformed into an ever deepening and loving friendship with God.
