together we stand: friday fotos - celebrating in style

a few words

"Too often religion is imagined and lived purely as a spiritual activity, sometimes as a mental exercise in belief and explanation. In Mother Theresa's life and words we find religion's soul, in the sense that her faith is inseperable from her compassion and her compassion is never disconnected from her behaviour." - Thomas Moore
"Perfect prayer does not consist of many words, but in the fervour of the desire which raises the heart to Jesus...it is the breath of life to our soul" - Mother Theresa on prayer in her book: No Greater Love
"True religion is to care for orphans and widows in their distress" - James 1:27
Stir up one another to do good works: "Let them do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to give, willing to share, storing up for themselves a good foundation for the time to come, that they may lay hold of eternal life" - 1 Timothy 6:18
