Each weekend and holy day when we pray the Creed Monday Saints Simon and Jude we profess our belief in the Communion of the Saints. What 8:15am Those Who Have Lost Faith does that mean?

The teaching of the Second Vatican Council reminds us that all of God’s People receive the call to holi- ness. It is not just priests and religious who are to strive to live a Christ-like way of life, but every disciple of the Lord has this call, this goal. In whatever our vocation may be, our work may be dedicated to the Lord for His glory and honor.

The first Jesuits founded schools throughout Europe, which re- flected their training in both classical studies and theol- ogy. Another emphasis of the Jesuits was evange- lization and they founded missions around the globe including Paraguay, Japan, Ontario, Ethiopia and India. I must confess that I consider my education from Loyola University – New Orleans as one of the major turning points in my life.
