Just a few thoughts

• One’s dignity may be assaulted, vandalized, and cruelly mocked, but cannot be taken away unless it is surrendered. -- Michael J. Fox

• May the Gospel of Jesus Christ be proclaimed by the Church as the source of new life, and never be used as a means to oppress or intimidate people.

• We pray for the people of every land sorely afflicted by war, that this week’s UN observances for peace (21 September) and the elimination of nuclear weapons (26 September) will renew their hope for an end to violence.
