In Holy Communion we die to sin and he gives us grace, we die to our own wills and receive the divine will, we humbly give him our stony hearts and have them returned to us softened and natural, we give him our humanity and he gives us his divinity. We commune with Christ's death and receive his life.

Eighteenth Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year B)

"All people desire to leave a lasting mark. But what endures? Money does not. Even buildings do not, nor books. After a certain time longer or shorter, all these things disappear. The only thing that lasts forever is the human soul, the human person created by god for eternity" (Pope Benedict XVI).
