Feast of St. John Lateran
Rebuilding the Church
Pope Innocent had a dream that his church,
St. John Lateran was falling down.
And in that dream he saw St. Francis
Holding up the church.
The Church in every age faces its difficulties.
And this age is no different.
But what can we possibly do?
We are not St. Francis.
We can’t go to Rome and help rebuild the Church.
The Church however is wherever two or three have gathered in the name of Jesus.
The Church is right here therefore,
Where we are.
What can we do for the Church where we live?
We can rebuild the church, one brick at a time.
One prayer, one sacrifice, one act of charity at a time.
