Praying for Matthew Karol

Prayer During Hurricane Season

  • Prayer for Hurricane Season
    O God, Master of this passing world, hear the humble voices of your children. The Sea of Galilee obeyed your order and returned to its former quietude; you are still the Master of land and sea. We live in the shadow of a danger over which we have no control. The Gulf, like a provoked and angry giant, can awake from its seeming lethargy, overstep its conventional boundaries, invade our land and spread chaos and disaster. During this hurricane season, we turn to You, O loving Father. Spare us from past tragedies whose memories are still so vivid and whose wounds seem to refuse to heal with the passing of time. O Virgin, Star of the Sea, Our Beloved Mother, we ask you to plead with your Son in our behalf, so that spared from the calamities common to this area and animated with a true spirit of gratitude, we will walk in the footsteps of your Divine Son to reach the heavenly Jerusalem where a storm-less eternity awaits us. Amen. Originally dedicated to the victims of Hurricane Audrey in 1957. - Fr. Al Volpe, Cameron Parish, LA

Prayer to End Abortion

  • Prayer to End Abortion
    Lord God, I thank you today for the gift of my life, And for the lives of all my brothers and sisters. I know there is nothing that destroys more life than abortion, Yet I rejoice that you have conquered death by the Resurrection of Your Son. I am ready to do my part in ending abortion. Today I commit myself Never to be silent, Never to be passive, Never to be forgetful of the unborn. I commit myself to be active in the pro-life movement, And never to stop defending life Until all my brothers and sisters are protected, And our nation once again becomes A nation with liberty and justice Not just for some, but for all, Through Christ our Lord. Amen!

The Music Has Paused...

BookwalkmdI'm sorry, all you wonderful viewers, but, when you have three daughters serving in two different weddings in the next two - five months, there is much running around to bridal shops and fittings, etc.  It's fun though.

Another thing that was (is) top-notch fun was this Book-Walk.  I have so much fun reading your lovely messages and knowing you are enjoying the Book-Walk too.  Your excitement carries me through all the planning, baking, and setting-up the Book-Walk.

I did contact the winner and she was delighted.  I'm so glad. Her words during the Book-Walk were: "This is my first ever book walk."  And after the win: "Wahoo - I have never won anything before!!!"

I love those kinds of wins.  See, dreams do come true.  J

So who was the winner?  The wonderful Marilyn Wilkinson from the beautiful state of Virginia.  I have "known" Marilyn for several years through eloops we both frequent so I am delighted in her "sweet" victory.

Congratulations, Marilyn!

And the rest of you, stay tuned.  We aren't done yet...

Remember, Christmas Mosaic is available from Hillside Education for the introductory price of $15.99 and Christmas is only 60 days away, so you really do want to place your order now.

House Prayer

  • (Adapted from Our Lady of the Oaks Retreat House Prayer)
    God our Father, Open our hearts to your Presence. Open our minds to your Guidance. Open our lives to your Love, Through the intercession of Our Lady Bless us, bless our family and our home. Make us an instrument of your peace And a sign of your presence. Unite us to your Son, Jesus, in such a way That all who see and know us may see and know Jesus. By our unity to Him on Earth, Unite us to Him Forever in Heaven. With faith and confidence We ask this in the Name of Jesus Christ, Your Son, our Lord. Amen.
