Preparing for death

“If you were to die today, what would others say about you? What was in you that was beautiful, that was Christlike, that helped others to pray better?” St. Teresa of Calcutta

No time to Pray?
Dependance on God
Open to God’s plan?
TKC!
“You don’t know how very happy I am to let God just do whatever he likes with me.” St. Teresa of Calcutta
Are you willing to let the Holy Spirit change your plans? Do you pick up the internal phone to listen to his message when you hear his message ringing in your heart and mind?
God bless,
Fr. Michael Sliney, LC
Acts of kindness
TKC!
“Kindness has converted more people than zeal or eloquence.” St. Teresa of Calcutta
Truly listening, holding a door for someone, steering the conversation towards the other person’s interest, taking the middle seat in the car, filling a glass with water during a meal, handwritten thank you notes, making a fresh pot of coffee,…these are the “little” things that can make a huge difference.
God bless,
Fr. Michael Sliney, LC

Tips for dating

Tips for a Healthy High School Social Life
1. Avoid dating. Better to socialize as a group; most teenagers are not mature enough to enter into an intense relationship.
2. Curfew. Parents should be at the door ready to smell their breath, ask questions and exact tough punishments if they are late or under the influence of drugs or alcohol. Nothing good happens after midnight.
3. Choose your best friends wisely. Look for friends with a stable family background, a strong Faith and firm moral convictions.
4. Only attend parties offered by friends and families who you know very well and can trust.
5. Dances. Ask yourself if you would be comfortable introducing this particular person with whom you would like to dance to your parents.
6. Why not combine fun with service, for example to serve food at a soup kitchen on a Friday or Saturday night with your friends?
I7. f you truly want to excel academically, you need to limit Facebook, social texting and video games to Friday night thru Sunday.
