Saint of the Day
St. Louise de Marillac Continuing our focus on the corporal works of mercy, we feature a 16th-century
French woman and friend of St. Vincent de Paul, who helped her deepen her faith

who continue her work and witness today.
Living Faith
Giving Drink to the Thirsty
Brenda Koinis founded The H2O Project. Participants pledge to give up drinking everything but water for two weeks. The money saved goes to an organization providing much-needed clean and safe drinking water in Africa and elsewhere, and at the same time teaches donors the value of sacrifice focused on others’ needs.

Portrait of Paul
Paul in Athens
In observance of the Year of St. Paul, Father Norman Langenbrunner tells us that Paul wasn’t always successful in his preaching about Christ. One case in point is his visit to the Areopagus in Athens, where Greek intelligentsia gathered to debate. Father Norm describes what happened when Paul met the Greek philosophers.
