The Battle Is the Lord's

Today, EWTN  - the Global Catholic Media Network founded by Mother Angelica has responded to the HHS mandate and sued the US government over this blatant violation of the 1^st Amendment.  http://www.ewtn.com/hhsmandate/. Please continue to pray, to offer your daily sacrifices and inconveniences for our congress & leaders, for EWTN and all those who are battling against what is intrinsically evil - abortion, contraception and the rejection of conscience. “The battle is the Lord’s.” Those are David’s words as he faced Goliath – the giant who challenged the freedom and existence of the Israelite nation. Today’s assault on religious liberty in the U.S. places us in a like position. As we face this major attack and possible demolition of religious freedom – the ability to live and work according to God-given consciences - we must meet the challenge in faith, taking a stand in every way we can knowing that we fight under Him who conquered sin & death. 

What Words Can't Say...

Before we launch deeper into the New Year we thought it fitting to look back upon all the gifts and graces of this past year...

Here are some of the many captured moments that still deserve gratitude and praise.

Incredible Identity

Recently, one of our Sisters was doing the grocery shopping. While she was busily gathering veggies in the produce department, an astonished little wide-eyed tyke spotted her and gasped “Mommy, what is that?!” The child’s mom and the nearby store staff member were evidently more embarrassed over the comment than Sister herself! These types of incidents always make for a good laugh! They break through the surface of normal routine and bring back to mind things of fundamental importance… things like - who we are!
