Subject: [TAC] Daily Excerpt for October 24 2006
Date: October 21, 2006 04:53 pm

Today's excerpt is from St. Josemaria Escriva:

"For many centuries now, the Church has been spread throughout the world
and it numbers persons of all races and walks of life. But the
universality of the Church does not depend on its geographical extension,
even though that is a visible sign and a motive of credibility. The Church
was catholic already at Pentecost; it was born catholic from the wounded
heart of Jesus, as a fire which the Holy Spirit enkindles [...]. 'We call
it catholic', writes St. Cyril, 'not only because it is spread throughout
the whole world, from one extreme to the other, but because in a universal
way and without defect it teaches all the dogmas which men ought to know,
of both the visible and the invisible, the celestial and the earthly.
Likewise, because it draws to true worship all types of men, those who
govern and those who are ruled, the learned and the ignorant. And finally,
because it cures and makes healthy all kinds of sins, whether of the soul
or of the body, possessing in addition--by whatever name it may be
called--all the forms of virtue, in deeds and in words and in every kind
of spiritual gift' ("In Love with the Church", 9).

God Bless.

Our Lady of Mt. Carmel, pray for us!

St. Gianna Beretta Molla, pray for us!
