Weekly Update - July 25

CHRIST IS IN OUR MIDST!

HE IS AND EVER SHALL BE!

 

QUOTE OF THE WEEK

"The Father said to the Son, 'Let us make man according to our image and likeness.' And the Second answered, 'We shall make him, O Father, and he will transgress.' And again he said, ‘O my Only-Begotten! O my light! O Son and Word! O my radiant glory! If you consent to our creation, it will befit you to put on rotting man, it will befit you to walk upon the earth, to take flesh, to struggle and to accomplish all.' And the Second answered, 'May your will be done, Father.' And thus Adam was created."
