Today is the Feast Day of the Holy Family. And what better thing to talk about than “Fast and the Furious.” Dominic Toretto is amazing at driving fast. But he is more impressive with protecting his family. My favorite quote from the ninth movie is, “The worst thing you can do to a Toretto is take away his family.” Translate that to our faith, and oh my gosh, the worst thing that you can do to God the Father is take away his family. We are taken away from our relationship with the Father through our sins. But the Father is willing to go to great lengths to bring us back, to send his only son so that we can be brought back into his family.
You are always a son and a daughter of the Father. This is the incredible news. For us to get back to him, what are you willing to do to get close to the Father? This is Spirit Juice: peace.

So at the foot of the mountain of Assisi. There is a beautiful church called Saint Mary of the Angels.

Dump The Garbage
Do you know who the unsung heroes of our society are? Garbage men. They do everything that we do not want to do. Garbage men and women, we salute you.
