Prayer For VocationsHeavenly Father, Bless your Church with an abundance of holy and zealous priests, deacons, brothers, and sisters. Give those you have called to the married state and those you have chosen

to live as single persons in the world, the special graces that their lives require. Form us all in the likeness of Your Son so that in Him, with Him and through Him we may love you more deeply and serve you more Faithfully, always and everywhere. With Mary we ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen

Choose Life “I’m against abortion, but I don’t want to impose my morality on someone else.” What? How can you be against the killing of the unborn in one breath and then justify this by not wanting to tell others what to do? “The problem is we are allowing abortion to fall into a different category than every other act of homicide. But abortion is not a different act; it is a different method of the act of homicide in which one person kills another.”   (Bryan Kemper of Stand True Ministries. The Southern Cross, February 2010)
