This Father’s Day, consecrate your mission as a father to St. Joseph, asking him to guide you, strengthen you, and help you lead your family closer to Christ. Give the ultimate gift of prayer this Father’s Day. Enroll your father, grandfather, or any spiritual father in your life to be remembered by the Marian Fathers in a Novena of Holy Masses at the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy.

In today’s Gospel (Luke 12:39–48), Jesus calls us to vigilance—to be faithful stewards who live every moment ready for the coming of the Lord. “Much will be required of the person entrusted with much,” He says. That same spirit of responsibility and readiness defined one of the greatest saints of our time: St. John Paul II.

September is National Suicide Prevention Month, a time that serves as a powerful reminder that we must look out for loved ones, friends, and family who are at risk for this leading cause of death.

Thaddaeus Lancton, MIC, and Dr. Matthew Breuninger for a conversation on the vital role of faith in mental health therapy.
