Thank you Fr. Hugh for taking the time to share very indepth, the 8th Beautitude. You certainly have left no stone unturned using all the examples therein. I will pray for the Persecuted and the Persecutor. Amen. 🙏

Thank you, Tom, for your encouragement. I truly appreciate it.
Lovely words, lovely images; it’s not personal, it’s what we stand for that brings the persecution. Your painful insight is the source of so much intolerance, yet what we should do is pray for our persecutors. This is a difficult task. I’m not sure I’m capable of that level of forgiveness.
The Beatitudes are a.way to live not just for the religious, but the secular as well. Great essays. Keith
