Here are the quotes posted this week to social media (Facebook, Instagram, X) this past week:

We must not be content to read exclusively the Gospel to learn the secret of holiness. We still need to know how to read the living gospels that God has placed around us. — Marcel Văn

It is by reason and by the Gospel, with illumination from the Holy Spirit, that God makes things clear to us. — Saint Charles de Foucauld

Above all at times when I am exhausted
You never neglect to look at me.
In unrest as in danger,
Your gaze is my comfort and support.Oh! Mary I love you greatly!
A glance at your face is enough to reassure me;
A glance at your face is enough to melt my sadness;
A glance at your face is enough to regain my peace.— from a poem of Marcel Văn for Our Lady of Perpetual Help

Spiritual communion is highly beneficial; through it you can recollect yourselves in the same way after Mass, for the love of this Lord is thereby deeply impressed on the soul. If we prepare ourselves to receive Him, He never fails to give in many ways we do not understand. — Saint Teresa of Avila

You, the food of angels, have given Yourself in a fire of love to men; You, the garment which covers all our nakedness, feed the hungry with Your sweetness. Oh! Sweet without any bitter, oh! Eternal Trinity. — Saint Catherine of Siena
