ATTENTION PLEASE
In order to be fruitful in our faith we must pay attention to God. We must be always open to the movements of the Spirit and respond. This really is the reason for prayer. Time in prayer, Adoration, reading of Holy Scripture and other pious reading are all things that…

Prayer intensions for the week of 7/7/24
When we gather together to pray the Rosary each week, we offer our intentions before we pray. We offer this opportunity for those who can’t make a Monday evening for Rosary, or for anything that comes up after Monday, to put forth intensions for all of us to pray for.…
