Note from the Assistant Managing Editor:
We really do need your help during Lent this year. When I first interviewed for the job of Assistant Editor, Mr. Field emphasized the importance of daily prayer. "In apostolate," he said, "you have to get out of the way — and the only way to do that is by cultivating a deep interior life." I am still learning. And Lent is a wonderful time to grow: it challenges me to pray more, to fast consciously, and to give to God without worry. CERC is an apostolate. Our mission is to spread the truth and to serve you — and to do that, we need your help. Giving to God is as simple as clicking below. God bless you. - Meaghen Gonzalez |
