Our Lady of the Skies Chapel serves travelers, airline employees, airport workers, security personnel, families, and all who seek a quiet place of prayer.

Here are just a few lessons I learned from going to Mass every day for a month.

Here in New York, we should try to grow as big as the March for Life in Washington, D.C., in order to reverse abortion laws.

A number of springs ago, I went to the Easter Vigil Mass with the joyous anticipation of Easter, though a bit muted. That year, my dad was journeying through what I knew — but did not want to believe — were the final months of his earthly life. 

Jesus says in the Bible, “Don’t throw your pearls before swine. They’ll trample them under their feet.” Meaning, not everyone can recognize the value of what is precious.

I now know what Jesus meant when he said, “Let the children come to me; do not prevent them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these” (Mark 10:14).

I feel joy and even some nervousness, but above all, I feel deep happiness in my soul knowing that I am close to becoming Catholic.

Seekers might accept an invitation to attend Mass with us. But anyone who is the least bit interested in music, or knows the singers performing, may attend a concert. It’s another way we can draw people to Christ and the Church. 

So you’ve fallen? That’s the acknowledgement of Lent. We’re all sinners. But the biggest gift of Lent is God’s overwhelming and enduring love for us. So welcome to the rest of Lent, which beckons with many graces.
