This month, Sr. Carol Schumer, D.C. offers a prayer service entitled “Gratitude for Life.” It challenges us to appreciate that “we are God’s work of art, created in Christ Jesus.” and that “All we can do is be … thankful to God for the riches God has bestowed on us.” Indeed, we are blessed even in our circumstances. Let’s daily strive to say “thanks” for the simple things, even our lives.
Let’s pray for our elections and for the resultant leaders.
Blessings on All Saints’ Day, All Souls’ Day and our Triduum of Vincentian feasts– the Miraculous Medal 11/27; St. Catherine Laboure, 11/28 and the Founding of the Daughters of Charity, 11/29 plus, of course, Thanksgiving, 11/28.
