Today’s Blessing Prayer: Sunday greetings and blessings to all! I hope this finds you well and enjoying your Sunday. Don’t forget to give God a little time today. I began the mission last night at Immaculate Conception/Assumption Parish in Tuckahoe, NY by preaching the 4:00 pm and 5:00 pm masses. As I mention the parish is only about six miles from home, so I am commuting each day. Today, I will be preaching five more masses today. The mission will begin tomorrow afternoon after the 12: 00 noon mass and in the evening at 7:00 pm. Please keep the Immaculate Conception/Assumption faith community and their preacher in your prayers the next three days.
My prayer of blessing today is a simple one. My God bless us all with the ability to see with the eyes of faith as we journey through this Sunday. May we see the joy of God’s presence in ourselves and others and may we share that joy with all we meet this coming week and always! Have a great Sunday everyone, relax a little and enjoy wherever you are. Please know you are in my prayers always especially during this holy time! Have a blessed and holy Sunday filled with rest and peace! Peace in Christ’s Passion…Fr. Paul

Today’s Blessing Prayer: Saturday greetings and blessings to everyone! I hope your Saturday is starting off well? It looks to be a cloudy day here in the New York area though I think it is also to be a mild day. I have another Lenten Mission beginning this afternoon but this week I get to sleep in my own bed as the mission is at Immaculate Conception/Assumption Parish in Tuckahoe, NY which is only about six miles away. So, I will commute from home each day. I once again ask that you keep the faith community at Immaculate Conception/Assumption Parish in your prayers during these days of mission and if you have a little extra time could you include their preacher in your prayers too.
