St. Therese, Pray for Us

At Mass today for the Feast of St. Therese, the priest, who  is a Carmelite prior, wore the chasuble made by Sister Celine, St. Therese's sister. It is absolutely beautiful. After Mass, I got to touch the front and the back, all embroidered with flowers and with an additional colored set in of a picture of St. Therese, made of some material I could not identify. I got to touch that as well.

God our Father,

you promised your kingdom

to those who are willing to become like little children.

Help us to follow the way of St Thérèse with confidence

so that by her prayers

we may come to know your eternal glory.

We ask this through Christ our Lord.

One man sees the ideological war

What these questions suggest is that this is at root a political and ideological war, and the Beltway has assembled its usual bodyguard of lies and liars to conceal that truth.

Thanks to a friend for sending me these.

Packing, unpacking, packing, unpacking

As I am in transit for the next seven days, going from pillar to post, as it were, please keep me in your prayers. Thanks. And, I remember all my friends who travel for their jobs. May God bless them. Maybe some of you good readers could have a Mass said for my intentions, please.

Thank you.
