In this Vincentian Mindwalk, I explore the stained glass windows of the great cathedrals as catechisms about God. I will also look at lessons of “the cathedral of creation.”

We have often heard the stories of the lessons we can learn from frogs and canaries. Now they can help us understand why Pope Francis invites us to join another month-long celebration with the world’s 2.2 billion Christians.

Recently many of us were astounded to see pictures of parts of creation that are more than 13 billion light years away. I invite you to explore with me what the heavens tell of the glory of God. And what it might mean that Mary is the Queen of Creation.
