Today’s Blessing Prayer: Tuesday blessings and greetings to everyone! I hope you are continuing to navigate through these late July days with faith and a hopefulness for the future.
Once again, I offer you Pope Francis’ Prayer…Please keep Pope Francis in your prayers as he continues his ‘penitential pilgrimage' to Canada. O Mary, you shine continuously on our journey as a sign of salvation and hope. We entrust ourselves to you, and the Health of the Sick. At the foot of the Cross you participated in Jesus’ pain, with steadfast faith. You, Salvation of All People, know what we need. We are certain that you will provide, so that, as you did at Cana of Galilee, joy and feasting might return after this moment of trial. Help us, Mother of Divine Love, to conform ourselves to the Father’s will and to do what Jesus tells us: He who took our sufferings upon Himself, and bore our sorrows to bring us, through the Cross, to the joy of the Resurrection. Amen. We seek refuge under your protection, O Holy Mother of God. Do not despise our pleas – we who are put to the test – and deliver us from every danger, O glorious and blessed Virgin. (Prayer Composed by Pope Francis) Day 10 the Feast of St. Ann and St. Joakim, please pray for all who have made this novena today we celebrate the feast of St. Ann and St. Joakim. May the blessings of these ten days continue on in the lives of all who journeyed in prayer! May we all have a blessed. holy, safe, and healthy Tuesday – may God bless our journey through this day no matter where we are or what today will bring! May God bless all our endeavors. May God be with us in all of our challenges and in all of our struggles. May we trust in the presence of God that we carry within us and not be afraid to share our gift with whomever we encounter or in whatever we do today. Peace in Christ’s Passion…Fr. Paul

Today’s Prayer: Give us, O Lord, a steadfast heart, which no unworthy affection may drag downwards; give us an unconquered heart, which no tribulation can wear out; give us an upright heart, which no unworthy purpose may tempt aside. Bestow upon us also, O Lord our God, understanding to know you, diligence to seek you, wisdom to find you, and a faithfulness that may finally embrace you; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen! (Prayer by St. Thomas Aquinas)

Loving God, we pray: that through the glorious Apostle, Saint James, who by reason of his fervent and generous heart was chosen by Jesus to be witness of Christ’s glory on Mount Tabor, and agony in Gethsemane. May James, whose very name means one who steps into the shoes of another and one who follows, help us to obtain this day the strength and compassion we need to be followers of Jesus. May St. James be our inspiration today and may we step into the shoes of Jesus and bring the gift, the treasure of God to all we meet. Amen.
