Inspired to grow in their faith

Over the last three years, María Rosalinda Cuarenta has juggled her work schedule and family dynamics with traveling around different parishes in the Diocese of Dallas to attend her weekly classes and earn a Certificate in Pastoral Ministry. At times, it was difficult and exhausting for the mother of three, but Cuarenta, who has been serving as a children’s catechist since 2017, didn’t let those challenges get in the way of her mission: becoming a better servant for the Church.

Father Julius Leloczky’s autobiography, “All is Grace! My Life,” follows his personal journey from his family’s bakery in Hungary, through the religious suppression of communist Hungary and the upheaval of the Hungarian Revolution, all the way up to his life at the tranquil Our Lady of Dallas Cistercian Abbey in Irving, where he currently resides.

Father Esposito: Gratitude for the witness of St. Peter

After celebrating Mass recently for my University of Dallas students in a chapel just a few feet from the bones of St. Peter, I mused on what the fisherman would think of the overwhelming grandeur of the basilica that houses his mortal remains. Many would suspect that his simple Galilean sensibilities would be repulsed by the opulence and gilded pomp of the place, and that thought did cross my mind; but that solution strikes me as too facile and puritanical. My hunch is that Peter would consider the final resting place of his bones, the rock on which this church and the Church are built, to be a fitting reward, a capstone for his efforts to love the Lord.
