Living with Christ

Living with Christ provides a wide variety of resources that help to nourish your daily spiritual life, putting the richness of the Christian spiritual tradition at your fingertips. Use these for your personal growth, for your reflection and prayer, and for sharing your faith with others in your family, household, or community.

Christ is risen!

Prayer in the morning

Gospel canticles • The gospel canticles (or “songs”) come from Luke's gospel. In honor of the mystery of the Incarnation (to which all three refer), it is customary to make the sign of the cross as the canticle begins and to stand while it is sung.

Prayer in the evening

A prayer for each day April 2025

A curious omission

Rolling stones • His Eminence Luis Antonio Cardinal G. Tagle, serves as the Pro-Prefect of the Section for the First Evangelization and New Particular Churches of the Dicastery for Evangelization.
