May 15, 2017. A hundred years from now, it will not matter what type of job I held, what type of house I lived in or what kind of car I drove, but the world may be a better place because I made a difference in the life of a child.” anonymous. Today as we rejoice in the many graduation ceremonies from kindergarten to college – we know we have made a difference in the life of a child. Yet we look at the children denied an education and we realize that these children and their families continue in a cycle of poverty, abuse, and exploitation. Let us pray, bless and think positively of all children that all may be empowered and given a life of opportunity through education.

Dear mothers,
Christ is Risen! Please pray for me to discern God’s will for my life. In my heart, I desire a life of celibacy and dedication to Christ in prayer, service, and contemplation. Everyone tells me things like “when you get married” or “you will get married to a good man and have children”, etc. I begin to cry when I hear these now. I try to desire things in the world like a certain job or lifestyle and I cannot. What God’s will is, I want to accept it and for Him to give me courage to live it faithfully whether or not it is celibacy. Please pray for my family.
