Today’s Blessing Prayer: Tuesday greetings and blessings to all! I hope your day has started off well. I find myself these days on Staten Island giving a retreat at St. Joseph Retreat Center.
My prayer of blessing today flows from the Feast of Mary that we celebrate today. I know that my life has been touched by Mary’s presence often. So, in the spirit of the Feast of the Assumption I pray that God will bless you with the humble and loving spirit of Mary’s presence in your life today. That you will be touched by the compassion, nurturing, loving and joyful spirit of Mary as you journey through this day and always. May Mary the Mother of Jesus, always bring your struggles, your needs to her loving Son turning the ordinary water of life into the extraordinary wine of God’s love! May you find the gift of peace and joy through the intercession of Mary as you journey through life today and always. Remember to give God and Mary a little time today after all it is a holyday. Peace in Christ’s Passion…Fr. Paul

Today’s Prayer:
Dearest Mary, through your grace, your intercession, and your example, deliver us from all evil, and untie the knots that prevent us from being united with God, so that we, free from sin and error, may find God in all things may have our hearts placed in God and may serve God always in our sisters and brothers. (Adapted from a prayer by Pope Francis) Today’s Blessing Prayer: Monday greetings and blessings to everyone. I hope you had an enjoyable weekend and that you got a little rest and relaxation.

Today’s Blessing Prayer: Sunday blessings and greetings to all. I hope your Sunday has started off well.
Amid all the saber rattling in our world and the violence and hate in Virginia these past few day I begin my prayer this Sunday asking God to grab us by the hand so because of our little faith we stop sinking into the ugly waters of hate, racism and violence. I pray that God will calm our winds of fear. And I pray that we will hear the tiny whispering of God’s voice reminding us that he is always with us. As I continue my prayer today may God bless all of you with a beautiful day, one in which you will celebrate the gift of life with family, friends and people who enjoy life. May you be blessed with a day that is fun and filled with moments and people of joy and hope. May you be blessed with a day of rest and enjoyment. Please know as always, you are in my prayers. Be safe if you are out and about. Peace in Christ’s Passion…Fr. Paul Today’s Prayer: Lord, you know what is best; let all be done as you please. Place me where you will and deal with me freely in all things. I am in your hand; turn me about whichever way you will. Behold, I am your servant, ready to obey in all things. Not for myself do I desire to live, but for you. Amen. (Prayer by Thomas Ầ Kempis)

O eternal and fatherly goodness! My heart open itself to you. Amen (Prayer by St. Jane Francis De Chantal)
