At St Augustine Church in Manchester, EnglandFrom heaven Saint Teresa appeared to one of her Carmelite nuns. She told her that souls in heaven and souls in the world should really love God with the same love. “The only difference,” she said, “is that we [in heaven] love God face to face; you must love him in the Blessed Sacrament.” Yes, this living bread is our heaven on earth.
Saint Alphonsus Liguori
