“I don’t think of all the misery, but of the beauty that still remains.” Anne Frank
What better day than Thanksgiving to start a “gratitude journal”. Write down all the ways that God is loving you each and every day…and there are so many!

Dear Friends, in Christ,
“Doubting is the biggest insult to Divinity.” St. Padre Pio
St. Peter was actually walking on water, until he took his eyes off Jesus. Problems begin when we rely too much on our own abilities and not enough on God’s grace.

Dear Friends, in Christ,
“I fear God’s judgment, not man’s.” St. Padre Pio
You and Jesus, one on one, looking back on your life, and especially on your love…this should be the joyful encounter of a “friend meeting a friend.” Christ is Our King…serve Him, not the world!
God bless,

Dear Friends, in Christ,
“Fly from bad companions as from the bite of a poisonous snake.” St. John Bosco
If a friend no longer inspires and challenges you to have a deeper faith, a stronger marriage and to be a more selfless person, it may be time to question the value of that friendship.

It doesn’t take much to make someone’s day…

Dear Friends, in Christ,
“In the Sacrament of Penance, “Jesus receives us with all of our limitations, He bring us the mercy of the Father who forgives us, and transforms our heart, rendering it a new heart, capable of loving Him, who loved His own to the end (cf. John 13:1). And this love is manifested in his mercy. Jesus always forgives us.” Pope Francis
Allow Christ to heal your wounded heart, strengthen your tired soul, put enthusiasm back into your system…go to confession regularly!!

Dear Friends, in Christ,
“In the light of Mary, the Church sees in the face of women the reflection of a beauty which mirrors the loftiest sentiments of which the human heart is capable: the self-offering totality of love; the strength that is capable of bearing the greatest sorrows; limitless fidelity and tireless devotion to work; the ability to combine penetrating intuition with words of support and encouragement.” St. John Paul II
Woman are a huge blessing to the Church, the family and the world. Please ladies, live up to this lofty ideal…we all need your holiness!
God bless,
Fr. Michael Sliney, LC
