Today we pray for all women and men religious. In particular we pray for the orders serving throughout this Diocese, including the Franciscans, Benedictines, Carmelites, Daughters of Charity, Sisters of the Holy Cross, Sisters Adorers of the Precious Blood, Oblate Missionaries of Mary Immaculate and I’m sure others I haven’t yet discovered. We so desperately need their example in this world.
May they spend each day being formed by the Rule of their Order and serve as an example to all of us in word and deed. May Mary draw them close to her Immaculate Heart and lead them ever closer to her Son.
