| "FAITH IN ACTION"
A weekly reflection by JCU's Campus Ministry Staff |
|

"During World War II bombing raids, children in refugee camps, distraught by loss and fearful of the future, were given bread to hold during the night. The bread gave them a sense of peace and hope for tomorrow. That image and the phrase "Sleeping with Bread" is the title of a lovely little gem of a book on the Ignatian Examen prayer...."
