Today we remember Malachi the Prophet and Saint Genevieve of Paris, two witnesses who call us to faithfulness, courage, and compassionate care.
Malachi stands at the close of the Old Testament, reminding God’s people of covenant truth: to return to wholehearted worship, to practice justice, and to wait expectantly for the Lord’s refining work. His words challenge complacency and invite honest repentance so God’s promises can be fulfilled.
Genevieve, humble and prayerful, became a mother to the poor and a protector of Paris in a time of fear. Through prayer, practical care, and steady courage she showed how holiness looks in everyday service—trusting God in danger and tending the needy with tenderness.
May their examples inspire us: to speak truth with love, to pray without ceasing, and to serve the vulnerable with courage. A short prayer: Lord, give us the faith of Malachi and the compassion of Genevieve; make us instruments of your justice and mercy in our time. Amen 💕✌️🙏
