On the feast of "Golden Mouth"...


Today is the feast of St. John Chrysostom (347-407), one of the great doctors of the early Church.  As Bishop of Constantinople, he was one of the great preachers and speakers of his time, so much so that he became known as "Golden Mouth."
Golden-tongued or not, parishioner Alan Auciello is likewise never at a shortage for words.  A daily Mass attendee, but with his ear to the New Brunswick streets running "Chicago's" hair salon  on Somerset St,  he has a wealth of unique life experiences that he draws upon in speaking of faith to religious ed groups and incarcerated teens.
Over the next two months, he has distilled some of his favorite thoughts to Twitter-size expressions that we'll be running on the blog and on our Twitter. Enjoy!

Today's thought:
TOMORROW IS FOR THOSE WHO DON'T WANT TO LIVE TODAY
