Saint of the Day

St. Anna Rosa Gattorno (1831-1900)
Widowed after six years of marriage, Anna took private vows of chastity and obedience and became a Franciscan tertiary. She had the hidden stigmata, and helped found several religious congregations.

Reflections from the Saints

My love, what can I do to make the whole world love you? Make use once again of this wretched instrument to renew the faith and conversion of sinners.

Life in Christ: Catechism #2238

Those subject to authority should regard those in authority as representatives of God, who has made them stewards of his gifts: "Be subject for the Lord's sake to every human institution...Live as free men, yet without using your freedom as a pretext for evil; but live as servants of God." Their loyal collaboration includes the right, and at times the duty, to voice their just criticisms of that which seems harmful to the dignity of persons and to the good of the community.
