A WORD OF GRATITUDE

 A Word of Gratitude — and an Invitation This Challenge would not exist without Matthew Kelly. For his entire adult life, Matthew has devoted himself to one mission — helping people grow in their Catholic faith. Through more than twenty-five books, distributed through parishes and to individuals around the world, he has been quietly and faithfully doing what he invites all of us to do: shine your light, become the best version of yourself, make room for God in the ordinary moments of your life. In his book The Biggest Lie in the History of Christianity, Matthew introduced the world to Holy Moments — and named something many of us had been living without fully understanding. The biggest lie, he tells us, is that holiness isn’t for ordinary people. That it’s reserved for saints and mystics, or for those with more time, more faith, or more discipline than the rest of us. It isn’t true. It never was. Every one of us is called to holiness. And every one of us — in the most ordinary moments — has the capacity to create a Holy Moment. That truth is the seed this whole community grew from. Maybe you’re one of the more than eight million people who have already held a copy of Holy Moments in your hands. If so — welcome. You already know the idea at the center of everything we do here. If you haven’t read it yet, we’d encourage you to: Dynamic Catholic gives away six copies free — you pay only $5.95 for shipping and handling, at www.dynamiccatholic.com/holy-moments. And when you’ve read it — share it. Give it to someone who needs encouragement. Let the light keep moving. That is, after all, exactly what Matthew Kelly has been doing his whole life. And it’s what we hope this community inspires you to do too. Whatever the Holy Spirit is calling you toward — however quiet or small or unlikely it seems — say yes. We’re here to help if we can. Reach out to us at HolyMomentsNJ@gmail.com. Your light is needed. For such a time as this.
