DOSA Catholics

To proclaim the Paschal mystery of Christ in both word and deed means to give a new voice to hope — a hope otherwise stifled by the hands of the violent. Wherever it is proclaimed, the Good News sheds light upon every shadow, in every age. #Easter

Christ is risen from the dead, and with him, we too rise to new life! This Easter proclamation embraces the mystery of our lives and the destiny of history, reaching us even in the depths of death. #Easter

The Chrism Mass will be tomorrow at 11 a.m. at the Cathedral Basilica of St. Augustine with Bishop Erik Pohlmeier as the celebrant for one of the most beautiful Masses of the liturgical year! 🙏 #DOSACatholics #holyweek

Through the Paschal Mystery, the Lord shows us that the power of love transforms even the most difficult and challenging circumstances. Though suffering cannot always be avoided or eliminated, it still holds a redemptive significance that restores lost dignity and opens the door to new life.

Why does the Annunciation matter so much in Catholic life? “Let it be done to me according to your word” — reveals something essential about our faith: God does not force salvation upon us. He invites it. And like Mary, we are asked to respond.

There are still spots available to take part in a retreat this weekend that will call for college students to be champions of human dignity! #DOSACatholics #humandignity dosafl.com/2026/03/23/ret…
