Catholic Retreat: LIVING the BEATITUDES during this Pandemic
Jesus said, “Blest are you poor; the reign of God is yours.” (Luke 6:20)
Because "the Beatitudes are at the heart of Jesus' preaching" (Catechism, 1716),
they are extremely important. “The beatitudes are ‘paradoxical promises’ which
confront us with decisive choices concerning earthly goods" (CCC 1717, 1728).
Let us learn to live and love the Beatitudes.
