A Message of Rest in Christ
Come to me, all you who labor and are burdened, and I will give you rest.
Matthew 11:28

In every vocation, priesthood, consecrated life, or holy matrimony, we are called to follow Him with trust, allowing His grace to strengthen us and renew our hearts. Take a moment today to listen to His call and rest in His loving presence. If you feel a stirring desire to follow God's path, talk to

PRAYER FOR THE SICK
Watch, O Lord, with those who wake, or watch, or weep tonight, and give your angels charge over those who sleep. Tend your sick ones, O Lord Christ, rest your weary ones. Soothe your suffering ones. Pity your afflicted ones. Shield your joyous ones, and for all your love's sake. Amen.
The community is welcoming, with one visitor feeling allowed to pray there for a few minutes during a difficult time.
