Favorite quote of the day . . .

The only difference between men and boys is the spelling!

Prayer from Catholic Advocate . . .

In view of the government rulings that have come down this past week, it is a time for people of faith to redouble their prayers. Our country seems to have lost sight of the reasons we became a nation and prayer is our recourse.

A Prayer for Religious LibertyBlessed are you God and I praise you for the gift of freedom.
This day, I pray especially for government leaders -
the men and women elected or appointed
as the stewards of our rights and the overseers of our needs.
Grant them true discernment so that they may never stray from the duties
with which we citizens have entrusted them
to uphold our religious freedom and care for our well-being.
Give me the power to touch with your truth everything and everyone I meet.
We ask this through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Amen.
