As for joy - as little as one can have of it in this life – experience shows that it is not the idle who possess it, but those who are zealous in the service of God. St. Ignatius of Loyola In order to be really obedient, it is not enough to do what obedience commands, we must do it without reasoning upon it. St. Philip Neri I do not need to court you with great thoughts or profound insights, for the good of my soul consists not in thinking much, but in loving much. St. Teresa de Avila O Saint Gerard, who, like the Savior, loved children so tenderly and by your prayers freed many from disease and even from death; graciously look down upon the distressed parents who plead with thee for their child’s health, if such be the Will of God. Present their promise to God to bring up the child a good Christian and to guard him (her) by word and example against the fatal leprosy of sin. This favor we implore thee, O sainted Brother, through the tender love with which Jesus and Mary blessed thy own innocent childhood. Amen. © 2024 Peregrinus 548 Market Street PMB 72296, San Francisco, CA 94104 Unsubscribe
