A great Pilgrimage to the Holy Land.
04-15 November 2007
Now is a great time to sign up! The brochure and full information, including
hotel links, is on-line.
We'll renew our Baptismal Promises at the Jordan River, where Jesus was
Baptized by John.  We'll renew our marriage vows and pray for any deceased
husbands and wives at Cana in Galilee where Jesus attended a wedding with
his Mother and turned water into wine.  We'll take a boat ride on the Sea of
Galilee.  We'll even have a chance to visit Masada and to swim in the Dead
Sea. We'll visit the Holocaust Museum in Jerusalem too, and see the Dead Sea
Scrolls.  You'll never read Scripture in the same way after this wonderful
Pilgrimage! Follow the link from:  www.frpat.com

"Yet, O LORD, you are our Father; we are the clay, and you are our potter;
we are all the work of your hand."  ~Isaiah 64:8

Molding our lives means cutting and shaping our material into something
good, something  which can express the spiritual.  We have been given the
clay out of which we can mold something spiritual.  We can first recognize
the selfishness in our desires and motives, actions and words, and then mold
that selfishness until it is sublimated into a spiritual tool for good.  As
the work of molding proceeds, we can see more and more clearly what must be
done to mold our lives into something even better.

.=: P R A Y E R   F O R   T H E   D A Y  :=.

I pray that I may mold my life into something useful and good.  I pray that
I may not be discouraged by the slow progress that I make.

Helen-Ann asks prayers of thanksgiving to God for the bronze medal won by
her son and his school team at track and field championships in Jamaica.
Brian requests prayers for special intentions and Thanks God for His Divine
guidance. Rose asks for prayers that her father's cancer is completely
healed and that he continues to have clear CAT scan results on Monday.

We pray for unity in our country and that we may build a Culture of Life. We
pray for the safety of our troops, their safe return and their families at
home.  We pray for a deep and profound respect for life, and for the courage
and willingness to stand up for life. We pray for one another, for those who
have asked our prayers and for those who need our prayers the most. Have a
good day!

May God Bless you and those you love, and keep you safe!

Father Pat
