“Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again;


but whoever drinks the water I shall give will never thirst;
the water I shall give will become in him a spring of water
welling up to eternal life.”
(John 4:13-
4:13-14)

Christ and the Samaritan Woman” Bernardo Strozzi, 1581-1644

“El que beba de esta agua volverá a tener sed, pero


el que beba del agua que yo le dare nunca volveráa tener sad.
El agua que yo le dare se convertirá en él un chorro que salta
hasta la vida eternal.”
(Juan 4:13-
4:13-14)

became a miracle-worker and influenced
the course of nations.
The life of Francis of Paola speaks plainly to an overactive world.
He was a contemplative man called to active ministry and must
have felt keenly the tension between prayer and service. Yet in
Francis's life it was a productive tension, for he clearly utilized the
fruits of contemplation in his ministry, which came to involve the
workings of nations. He responded so readily and so well to the
call of the Church from a solid foundation in prayer and
mortification. When he went out to the world, it was not he who

towards baptism let us recommit our own lives to the journey towards
God. We, too, need a gentle scrutiny, an examination of conscience;
and our prayer should be: “Lord, examine all our hearts today:
