New Video! – 200 Pennies – Celebrating the Year of Consecrated Life

200 Pennies

Celebrating the Year of Consecrated Life Sister Rose Marie, OP shares a point of conversion in her religious life during her ministry in a Rogers, Arkansas clinic and how she learned to value mutual relationships by seeing that others can bring the Gospel to you. The unexpected offering connected her with the story of the widow’s mite:

Mark 12:41 – 44
And Jesus sat over against the treasury, and beheld how the people cast money into the treasury: and many that were rich cast in much. And there came a certain poor widow, and she threw in two mites, which make a farthing. And he called unto him his disciples, and saith unto them, Verily I say unto you, That this poor widow hath cast more in, than all they which have cast into the treasury: For all they did cast in of their abundance; but she of her want did cast in all that she had, even all her living.

Luke 21:1- 4
And he looked up, and saw the rich men casting their gifts into the treasury. And he saw also a certain poor widow casting in thither two mites. And he said, Of a truth I say unto you, that this poor widow hath cast in more than they all: For all these have of their abundance cast in unto the offerings of God: but she of her penury hath cast in all the living that she had.
