I'll be in Mexico City from 07-18 January.  Keep me in your prayers, and
know you'll be remembered in mine as well.  I'll remember your intentions
remembered at Guadalupe, daily Mass and during visits to the many Churches
of Mexico City.  Margie, our Pastoral Minister, will send Morning Prayer in
my absence.  You cannot e-mail Margie by replying to this e-mail, but may do
so by e-mailing marge@xxxxxxxxxxx If you'd like to "unsubscribe" during this
time, just follow the directions at the bottom of this e-mail.  I cannot do
it for you during this time away.

St. Raymond of Penyafort (1175-1275)  
Since Raymond lived into his hundredth year, he had a chance to do many
things. As a member of the Spanish nobility, he had the resources and the
education to get a good start in life.  For more, click here:

Those who keep his commandments remain in him, and he in them, and the way
we know that he remains in us is from the Spirit whom he gave us.  ~1 John
3:22-4:6

From that time on, Jesus began to preach and say, "Repent, for the Kingdom
of heaven is at hand."  ~Matthew 4:12-17, 23-25

God calls us to observe His Commandments, as a way of protecting us and
providing for us. When we fail we can return to God, knowing that he will
forgive us. We set a good example for our children and grandchildren and all
those around us when we keep God's Commandments.

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

I pray that I may follow God's call by keeping His Commandments.  I pray
that I may always remember that God's forgiveness and a new start is always
available to me.

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
