He was ordained a priest in Catalonia and in 1849, he founded the Claretian order. Shortly after, he became the archbishop of Cuba.

Are there steps you can take that will make you holier, happier, healthier? Write them down and commit. Pray for strength. You may want to make minor tweaks to your life or major change may be in order. Either way, prayer and daily spiritual exercises are key to success. We need God s strength and guidance to succeed. Begin. Each beginning starts with a new day. Take your first step knowing that God is with you and success is possible. Why do Catholics sit, stand, and kneel during the Mass? honor and respect when he represents Christ. Finally, we kneel at the Consecration in adoration of the Blessed Sacrament, because Christ, himself, is present. These actions are intended to engage both our bodies and our minds in prayer.
