“Accidents will occur in the best-regulated families.” Charles Dickens
There is no “perfect” family…but as long as there is faith, a strong marriage and sacrificial love, kids tend to turn out just fine.

Glow in the dark Catholics
The homeless
“Friendless I can never be, for all mankind are my kindred, and I am on ill terms with no one member of my great family.” Charles Dickens
One great family, yet so many are forgotten…a kind word, a sandwich, a simple prayer go a long way with the homeless!
God bless,

Praying for the sick and dying
Small acts of kindness
“No one is useless in this world,” retorted the Secretary, “who lightens the burden of it for any one else.” Charles Dickens
It’s as simple as being attentive to the needs of others and taking action to lessen their burdens.

Filling up heaven
A Look of love
“A silent look of affection and regard when all other eyes are turned coldly away–the consciousness that we possess the sympathy and affection of one being when all others have deserted us–is a hold, a stay, a comfort, in the deepest affliction, which no wealth could purchase, or power bestow.” Charles Dickens
My mom, dad and siblings all gave me that “look”…and my Legionary priests also offer that tremendous brotherhood…give this gift to your friends!
God bless,
Fr. Michael Sliney, LC
God bless you!
Grateful hearts
“It’s a poor heart that never rejoices.” Charles Dickens
Grateful hearts often rejoice…focus more on the blessings and God’s tremendous love for you!
God bless,
