"It is Jesus in fact that you seek when you dream of happiness; he is waiting for you when nothing else you find satisfies you; he is the beauty to which you are so attracted; it is he who provokes you with that thirst for fullness that will not let you settle for compromise; it is he who urges you to shed the masks of a false life; it is he who reads in your hearts your most genuine choices, the choices that others try to stifle. It is Jesus who stirs in you the desire to do something great with your lives, the will to follow an ideal, the refusal to allow yourselves to be grounded down by mediocrity, the courage to commit yourselves humbly and patiently to improving yourselves and society, making the world more human and more fraternal." --St. John Paul II, August 19, 2000, World Youth Day CLUSTER NEWS Knights of Columbus Valentine’s Day Breakfast Six Lakes Council of the Knights of Columbus will host their annual Valentine's Day breakfast from 8:00am to 12:30pm next Sunday, February 15th, in the St. Boniface Church Hall.
