“These Sunday reflections by Sister Donna L. Ciangio, OP, provide a perfect opportunity for you personally or within a small group, to contemplate, pray, and share your faith. As you do, dream along with God about a future marked by compassion, generosity, and peace, and about the part you can play in creating it.”
—From the foreword by Joseph W. Cardinal Tobin, C.Ss.R., Archbishop of Newark
