~Family Perspective~

The apostles were afraid of Jesus until
he ate with them and they touched him.
In your family the ordinary acts of eating together
, touching, embracing not only confirm our love for each other,
but also celebrate God’s presence in your family.
These ‘ordinary’ moments contain the ‘Extraordinary.”
