est study of Christian history and I defy you to mistake the road to Catholicity. And if you are already Catholic — well, there is much left yet for you to do. Strengthen your faith with the assurance that Christ's rising proved Him God, and that therefore neither He nor the infallible Church He founded can, deceive or be deceived concerning the way to paradise. Rekindle your love for God who so mercifully redeemed you; renew your zeal for the spiritual and temporal welfare of your neighbor whom God wishes to share in that redemption. And finally let your faith and charity be ever inspired by your hope — hope in a happy immortality for soul and body; where we shall be forever reunited with father and mother, brothers and sisters; where the mother shall find her little ones, and the lover the love he lost; where the priest shall be united with the souls he helped to save; where God will wipe away all tears from our eyes, and death shall be no more; where faith is blended into vision, and hope into possession, and where naught remains but happiness and love forever and forever. Amen.
