"I have a framed, printed blessing hanging in my home, a gift from a religious sister in Ohio many years ago. It begins with these words: 'May you be steadfast on your journey, powered by the message of love and the command to serve. May you wear the Gospel on your sleeve.'
"Now, I pass by that blessing every day and frankly, don't often pay much
attention to it. But on one occasion recently, I stopped to consider
those words: 'May you wear the Gospel on your sleeve.' . . ."
In a recent commentary, Bishop Thomas J. Tobin, of the Diocese of Providence
(RI), reflected on the importance of wearing the Gospel on one's sleeve by living consistently with one's faith.
