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  

Vocations Committee, Supreme Council, Knights of Columbus

Choose Life A 2008 federal law will give new or expectant parents the latest information about Down syndrome or other Disabilities, give referrals to support services, and help create a national registry to connect parents with Down Syndrome children. A measure of how necessary this law is, lies in the statistic that 90o/o of parents who are told their unborn child has Down syndrome choose to abort the child.  (NRL News, 2/09)

 

__________________________QUOTES FOR THE WEEK_________________________

1. “Enthusiasm is one of the most powerful engines of success. When you do a thing, do it with all your mind. Put your whole soul into it. Stamp it with your own personality. Be active, be energetic, be enthusiastic and faithful, and you will accomplish your object. Nothing great was ever achieved without enthusiasm.”  Ralph Waldo Emerson, 1803-1882, Essayist, Philosopher and Poet

2. Pain is temporary, pride is forever.   Anonymous
