"Each of us was baptized to share in Christ's prophetic ministry. That means we need to stop and ask ourselves if we are willing to step into the space where the way of the world contradicts the Gospel and say, 'It doesn’t have to be this way.' "

—Sr. Mary M. McGlone, a Sister of St. Joseph of Carondelet, in "Prophets for life," published by Celebration magazine
