Let Your Light Shine
You who enjoy the inestimable blessing of the true Faith, should not forget that it is a duty to do what lies in you to extend these advantages to others who as yet are strangers to the Truth, or who, having embraced it, have fallen from it, or who walk unworthy of their high calling. This work is not left entirely to priests.
You also must do your share as far as you are able. To this end all must employ the power of prayer, and the influence of a good example which, at times, is more efficacious than the most eloquent sermon. Some can do more. The spread of Catholic literature is a very powerful means. Kind, encouraging words, spoken at seasonable times, will also go a long way.
