June 30, 2014 With Blessed Father Alberione and With Father Tom

Monday, June 30
THE FIRST MARTYRS OF THE HOLY ROMAN CHURCH
Am 2: 6-16
Ps 50: 16-23
Mt 8: 18-22

Everyone must regard as father, teacher, exemplar and founder Saint Paul the Apostle alone. In fact he is such. Because of him the Pauline Family was born, was nourished and made to grow. From him she has received the spirit (AD 2)

From Father Tom: This quotation scarcely needs a commentary except perhaps to be filled with gratitude as we recall the tens of thousands who have heard of the Institute, but did not have the special grace to join it, while you have had this grace. St. Paul never forgot his powerful experience on the road to Damascus. What about reflecting today on your own "Damascus" experience and thanking the Master for it?
