St. Columban (543?-615)
Columban was the greatest of the Irish missionaries who worked on the
European continent. As a young man who was greatly tormented by
temptations of the flesh, he sought the advice of a religious woman who
had lived a hermit?s life for years. He saw in her answer a call to leave
the world. He went first to a monk on an island in Lough Erne, then to the
great monastic seat of learning at Bangor.  For more, follow the link

You will be hated by all because of my name, but not a hair on your head
will be destroyed. By your perseverance you will secure your lives.? 
~Luke 21:12-19

It's not easy to be a true Christian. The price is laid out on today's
Gospel. "You will be hate by all because of my name." We may think this
does not apply to us.  Then we need to ask ourselves if our faith realy
and truly sets us apart from others around us. And we can be comfroted to
hear, "... but not a hair on your head will be destroyed. By your
perseverance you will secure your lives.

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

I pray that I may be  a true Christian. I pray that I may trust in the
security the Lord gives me as He helps me see the importance of working
for those things which last forever.

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
