OF THE DAY
First Monday of the month-- St. Paul
Gn 1: 1-19
Mk 6: 55-56
Many people fail to reach the a b c of holiness... because they fail to mortify themselves. And so also they do less good to others than they think (VMC 211).
The question is: which mortifications? For some it will be to speak less, for others eat less. Others again will struggle to control negative thoughts. Mothers of small children have ready-made mortifications all day long. Less TV will harm no one, etc. lent begins in 2 weeks-- time now to make plans.
Please Pray for our Deceased: Fr. Angelo Zappalorto SSP (1983)-- Fr. Nino Ansaloni IJP (1987)-- Sr. Bruna De Stefani FSP (1990)- Sr. Giovanna Pettinati FSP (1998)-- Sr. Enrica Orsini FSP (1999)-- Sr. M. Julianna Castelino PD (2004)
