Orlando, Fla., Jul 4, 2017 / 02:44 pm (CNA/EWTN News).- Contemplation is the most active thing we can do if we want to work for the Lord, Cardinal Daniel DiNardo said in his homily on July 4. Which might seem counter-intuitive, considering that he was addressing hundreds of bishops and thousands of Catholic leaders gathered in Orlando, Florida for the final Mass of the Catholic Convocation. But contemplation is action, the Cardinal of Galveston-Houston said, and the Gospel of John shows us this. In John 17, Jesus prays aloud for the apostles and for the Church to his Father during the Last Supper. He prays for their unity and for those they will evangelize, those they will meet once they are sent on mission. The 12 apostles, gathered at the table, are “mute”, observing and listening to Jesus, Cardinal DiNardo noted. “On this (4th of July) day of barbeques and fireworks, bands and parties, the Gospel text is striking...the most single contem...
Vatican City, Jul 4, 2017 / 03:22 pm (CNA/EWTN News).- The London hospital where Charlie Gard is living his last days has refused a transfer request from the Pediatric hospital Bambino Gesu in Rome for legal reasons. “This is sad news," said Mariella Enoc, President Bambino Gesu, often referred to as the "Pope's Hospital." The hospital had offered on Monday to transfer Charlie to their facilities from Great Ormond Street Hospital in London (UK), where the child and his family are currently staying. London and and European courts have ruled that Charlie must be pulled from life support and that he will not be allowed to die at home. Charlie Gard is a 10-month old suffering a rare, terminal, genetic illness. His parents have lost several legal battles in the fight to prolong the life of their son, including a request to send him to the United States for experimental treatment.   Enoc told Italian media on July 4 that he had offered the...

(CNS) -- Jesus took a few loaves and fishes and turned them into a feast for thousands, offering the church an example of faith in action, Cardinal Daniel N. DiNardo of Galveston-Houston said in sending 3,500 delegates home from the "Convocation of Catholic Leaders: The Joy of the Gospel in America."In the face of adversity and naysayers in today's world -- not unlike the apostles who wondered how they would feed the masses -- the church is called to take what they have, as Jesus did and reap the rewards of achieving great things in the face of the impossible, Cardinal DiNardo said in his homily during the convocation's closing Mass July 4."When we see the complexity, when we see the impossible ... Jesus will say, 'Just give me what you have.' Imagine what we will have left over after we do it at the Lord's word," he said."Jesus gives the apostles and everybody who listens to them ... he gives them that power. Do we believe...

(Vatican Radio)  Pope Francis has released his video message accompanying his monthly prayer intention for July.This month’s intention is for those distant from the Christian faith: "that our brothers and sisters who have strayed from the faith, through our prayer and witness to the Gospel, may rediscover the beauty of the Christian life."The text of the video message reads:"Let us never forget that our joy is Jesus Christ — his faithful and inexhaustible love.When a Christian becomes sad, it means that he has distanced himself from Jesus.But then we must not leave him alone! We should offer him Christian hope — with our words, yes, but more with our testimony, with our freedom, with our joy.Let us pray that our brothers and sisters who have strayed from the faith, through our prayer and witness to the Gospel, may rediscover the beauty of the Christian life."The Pope's Worldwide Prayer Network of the Apostleship of Prayer&nb...
