En el último mes hemos sido testigos de dos acontecimientos muy impactantes en nuestro país.   El 13 de julio fuimos testigos de un impactante intento de asesinato de un ex presidente.  Días después, asistimos a una de las mayores concentraciones de fieles católicos de la historia reciente en el Congreso Eucarístico Nacional de Indianápolis.

What would you do if Jesus told you that he was amazed by your faith?

The Gospels are filled with accounts of the Lord wondering at the faith of certain people who encounter him: the centurion in Capernaum, the paralytic, the woman with the hemorrhage, the Canaanite woman. Perhaps even more surprising than the miracles themselves is the fact that Jesus is amazed by faith. Since he is God, he knows everything and sees inside the secrets of the heart. Yet it is striking that he wonders at faith.

COLORADO SPRINGS. Caregiving can be a highly demanding, stressful responsibility for which no one person can adequately perform full-time without assistance.

Family members also require support and attention in order to maintain their own health and well-being. Respite care helps parents or caregivers take time to refresh, recharge their batteries and enables them to cope with caregiving.
