Quote of the Week

"The real hunger of men is hunger for heaven, for eternal life, for God. The Lord Jesus first underlines this hunger and then prepares a table for its satisfying. This table is He Himself. 'I am the Bread of life.' Our earthly body is sustained by bread, our soul is fed and given life by Christ."

— St. Nikolai Velimirovich (+1956)
