Annual appeal- your help is needed!

October 28, 2017 by Michael Sliney

Thy Kingdom Come!

Dear Friends in Christ,
It has been a real pleasure to serve all of you through my daily Gospel videos and reflections.  Your supportive comments and emails are very encouraging, and I am glad that this simple service has been useful to you and your families.
Once again, I would like to make my annual request for help.  I know that many of you have already been extremely generous in showing your financial support both in DC and NY, so for those who have already given, thank you!!  With 14 priests, seminarians, and mission corps young men currently living in our house in DC and 10 priests living in our house in NY, we have a combined annual budget of $300,000 and hope to send an additional $30,000 to our seminary in Cheshire, Ct. to support their needs as well.  The  donations will be divided 50-50 between NY and DC.  Please consider being an ANGEL FOR A DAY, whose support will be felt all year by many, by using the link below to make a tax deductible donation*:

Endurance of darkness

October 28, 2017 by Michael Sliney

TKC!

“The endurance of darkness is the preparation for great light.” St. John of the Cross

     God will never give you more than you can handle, and he often allows adversity and difficulties so we can grow and stretch our capacity to love.  Never doubt this “tough love” is leading you to greater peace and holiness!

God bless,

Fr. Michael Sliney, LC

Self-giving

October 27, 2017 by Michael Sliney

TKC!

“Love, to be real, must empty us of self.”  St. Teresa of Calcutta

      Being a parent forces a high level of self-giving to your kids (and your spouse).  Ask Jesus to help you, fill the tank with daily prayer, and allow his divine love to work through you every day!!

God bless,

Fr. Michael Sliney, LC

Live in the moment

October 26, 2017 by Michael Sliney

TKC!

“The goal of all our undertakings should be not so much a task perfectly completed as the accomplishment of the will of God.” –St Therese of Lisieux

     One day at a time, live in the moment, God’s spotlight is right here, right now!

God bless,

God’s mercy in us

October 23, 2017 by Michael Sliney

TKC!

“Let our judgment of souls cease, for God’s mercy upon them is extraordinary.”–St Faustina

    Sometime our judgements can be spontaneous, harsh and heartless…try to see that particular person or situation through the eyes of God’s merciful love and fight this temptation!

God bless,

Hidden blessings

October 22, 2017 by Michael Sliney

TKC!

“When we lose one blessing, another is often most unexpectedly given in its place.” CS Lewis

     Behind every storm and hardship, typically blue skies, a gentle breeze, and chirping birds are just around the corner….behind every cross, God is preparing a bigger blessing and a wonderful opportunity for you to grow in your transformation into Him.

God bless,

God’s timing

October 21, 2017 by Michael Sliney

TKC!

“I am sure that God keeps no one waiting unless he sees that it is good for him to wait.” CS Lewis

      God hears and responds to all of our prayers…on his timing and according to his infinite wisdom and love.

God bless,

Sincere Praise

October 20, 2017 by Michael Sliney

TKC!

“Praise is the mode of love which always has some element of joy in it.” CS Lewis

     Our world today is generally too meager in offering praise.  Not flattery, not manipulation…sincere praise for a job well done.

God bless,

Moving on

October 19, 2017 by Michael Sliney

TKC!

“The real trouble about the duty of forgiveness is that you do it with all your might on Monday and then find on Wednesday that it hasn’t stayed put and all has to be done over again.” CS Lewis

     At times, you can only “move on” with the help of God’s grace. But you need to let him know how bad you want it…

God bless,

Fr. Michael Sliney, LC
