Reject the spirit of harsh judgment. 🕊️ St. Eugene de Mazenod warned: “…misunderstanding, misjudging, openly criticizing everything… this is a wicked spirit.” Choose mercy over criticism - your kindness can break cycles of hurt. 🙏 #ThoughtForTheDay

Today, on the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we pause to honour the survivors of residential schools, remember the children who never came home, and commit to walking the path of healing, justice, and respect with Indigenous Peoples. 🧡 #TruthAndReconciliation #NDTR

This weekend reflection: The Gospel of the rich man & Lazarus isn’t about “rich vs. poor” but about indifference. Christ calls us: see the person at your gate, act with compassion today, and build the bridge so no chasm remains... #SundayReflection

Celebrating Mass in our retirement homes is always humbling. In the faces of the sick, the lonely, and the dying, Christ’s presence shines so powerfully. A reminder that even in suffering, God’s love is near, tender, and alive among us. ✨ #Faith #Hope #PresenceOfChrist

Homelessness is not just a social issue — it is a human experience, one that is deeply personal, complex, and often heartbreaking. Those who come to our doors are (...) neighbours, children of God, carrying their own stories and burdens. @stpatshamilton.bsky.social
