More wisdom from Fr. Jerome Bertram

Peace begins in our own hearts, the peace of knowing that we are at one with God, that we are trying to model our will on His, to bring about His kingdom, to sanctify His name. Then peace grows into the lives of those we meet, our contacts of charity, our words and thoughts of peace towards others. From small beginnings comes peace in our communities, in the places we live and the places we work. From that grows peace in the nation, and from that grows peace between nations.
