    Join us as we reflect, ponder, and pray together inspired by today's Gospel. Today's Gospel: Matthew 6:19-23What is my treasure -- and what do I do with it? What light do I allow to shine? That's what Jesus asks us to consider today. It's all about our priorities. These two little teachings are connected by a call to act. If we have treasure of any kind, we shouldn't hoard it. Treasure is useless unless we use it.

    Barb Szyszkiewicz reviews a stack of new books for your family to enjoy on road trips or lazy summer days. Summer is a great time to read new books! As a child, whenever I packed for summer vacation, the books were always the first things in my travel bag. Introduce your children to a new author or a genre this summer with these books your family can enjoy together.

    For Meatless Friday, Barb Szyszkiewicz shares a quick-to-prepare dish that's simple and delicious. Download our printable recipe card!This is the best time of year to buy escarole, a hardy green you can enjoy in salads or cooked in soups or other dishes. This meal takes less than 30 minutes to make, including the time to chop and clean the greens, and it's economical too! I like to serve it with hearty bread or rolls and some Parmesan cheese sprinkled on top.

There is a good chance that the candidate who gets my vote in the #NJprimary is the one who hasn't spammed my phone with election texts.
