Catholic Resources

“It is the duty of the Church to proclaim always and everywhere the Gospel of Jesus Christ. He, the first and supreme evangelizer, commanded the Apostles on the day of his Ascension to the Father: “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you” (Mt 28:19-20)...the mission of evangelization, a continuation of the work desired by the Lord Jesus, is necessary for the Church: it cannot be overlooked; it is an expression of her very nature.” 
— Pope Benedict XVI Ubicumque et Semper 2010

A short talk on Prayer

Fr Patrick has recorded a very short talk on prayer entitled: “Journey to the Heart of our Being.” In these days when we have a bit more time to pray and given that we will be opening the churches again soon for personal prayer, you might find the talk helpful.
