ST TERESA BENEDICTA OF THE CROSS
(Edith Stein--Virgin and Martyr)

Dt 4: 32-40

Mt 16: 24-28

Let us be on fire with love and zeal for the Eucharist and become ardent priests. Our hours of adoration are a very effective means for this (Notes on Pastoral Theology p. 220)

From Father Tom: That was in the Founder's time and he had special gifts so his "fire" was more than mine (or yours?). Things today are definitely changed? No, they are the same. The element of change is in the US. Let's stoke the embers!

Please Pray for our Deceased: Sr. M. Tecla Bassi (1983)--Sr.M. Ester Meleri FSP (2001)--Sr. Leus Abuda FSP (2007)--Sr. Camilla de Simoni FSP (2007) Sr. Marta Gbrielli SGBP (2010)
