Slow Down: Retreat Days with Sandy Prather

"Who, me?": Pope Francis and the Call to be a Saint

Event Details

"Called to be holy?  I don’t think so!" That’s a likely reaction for many of us when we think about what it takes to be a saint. We are rather too ordinary and well aware of our faults and failings. Yet in his recent apostolic letter, ‘Gaudete et Exsultate: An Apostolic Exhortation to Holiness in Today’s World,’ Pope Francis reminds us that the call to be a Christian, “is the same as saying to live ‘like a saint.’”  Correcting outdated notions of holiness, Francis shows how it is in ordinary, humble lives of love and service that one’s call is lived out.  Come and explore this inspiring, joyful message and discover perhaps, along the way, your own call to holiness.
