A wisdom saying from +Pere Jacques Hamel (1930-2016) on making the world a better place:

   Pere Jacques Hamel's horrific murder on July 26th in Normandy, France, was added to the list of those who died at the hands of ISIS-inspired violence. We choose instead to listen to his inspiration when he wrote on his parish online newsletter about looking forward to the summer after a chilly spring in the region.
   "At these times we should dig deep inside ourselves to hear God's invitation to take care of this world, to make it, where we live in it, a warmer, more human, more fraternal world."
               May we try to do so. We will.    
               Merci beaucoup, mon pere!
