At some point in a young person’s life, he or she is asked the question, “Where are you going in life?” The question at times can seem daunting to answer, especially when there is no direction or guidance available to that person. To help answer this age-old question for young men, the diocesan Vocations Office is offering high school students (including those who just completed eighth grade and high school) Quo Vadis, a one-day retreat on Friday, June 25 at Camp Shiloh in Hewitt.Read More -

spiritual communion prayer
My Jesus, I believe that you are present in the most Blessed Sacrament. I love You above all things and I desire to receive You into my soul. Since I cannot now receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there, and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You. Amen.

POPE FRANCIS' PRAYER FOR PROTECTION AND HElp
“O Mary,
you always shine on our path
as a sign of salvation and of hope.
We entrust ourselves to you, Health of the Sick, who at the cross took part in Jesus’ pain, keeping your faith firm.
You…know what we need,
and we are sure you will provide
so that, as in Cana of Galilee,
we may return to joy and to feasting
after this time of trial.
Help us, Mother of Divine Love,
to conform to the will of the Father
and to do as we are told by Jesus,
who has taken upon himself our sufferings and carried our sorrows to lead us, through the cross, to the joy of the resurrection. Amen.
Under your protection, we seek refuge, Holy Mother of God. Do not disdain the entreaties of those of us who are in trial, but deliver us from every danger, O glorious and blessed Virgin.” -
