Intentionally, joyfully living the faith ... we hope.

Porta Fidei

My Prayer for Women During This Year of Faith

February 28, 2013 by Lisa Schmidt 4 Comments

Editor’s Note: In his final General Audience address on February 27, 2013, Pope Benedict XVI invited us, once again, to walk through the “Door of Faith.”

“We are in the Year of Faith … I would like to invite everyone to renew firm trust in the Lord. I would like that we all, entrust ourselves as children to the arms of God, and rest assured that those arms support us to walk every day, even in times of struggle.”

In his apostolic letter Porta Fidei (Door of Faith), Pope Benedict reminds us that God has opened the door of faith for all, no matter the season of life in which we are journeying.

Seems good timing to share the following piece I wrote for the Catholic Year of Faith blog also picked up by Kairos Catholic Journal, the official publication for the Catholic Archdiocese of Melbourne, in Victoria, Australia.

The door of faith is open. Let’s walk through it together.
