May 21-22, 2013 With Blessed Father Alberione and With Father Tom

Wednesday, May 22

OF THE DAY
St. Bernardine of Siena, Priest
Sir 4: 11-19
Mk 9: 38-40

Nobody must stand aside, observing. If you do this and combine it with judging you are already at fault (RSP 44).

From Father Tom: I like to make the distinction between "observing" that someone is committing a fault (impossible not to see!) and "condemning." (Which we must strenuously resist). Let us correct our faults first.

Please Pray for Our Deceased: Sr. M. Giovanna Liverani PD (1974)--Sr. Gesuina Baschirotto PD (1979)-Sr. M. Felcina Belli FSP (1994)--Sr. M. Benedetta Margliano PD (1996)--Pietro Monaldi HFI (1998)--Fr. Alfonso Tsukamoto SSP (2003)--Fr. Attilio Tempra SSP (2003)--Sr. Costanza Castagnolo FSP (2006)--Sr. Elena Marsiglia FSP (2008)--Sr. M. Loredana Vito PD (2009)--Sr. Bernarda Vicario FSP (2010)--Escolastica Garcia (1988)--John Tomaso (2011)

OF THE DAY
St. Christopher Magallanes, Priest and companions, martyrs
Sir 1: 1-11
Mk 9: 30-37

Spend your life well.  See things as they really are.  Life is for heaven (RSP 55).

From Father Tom: to repeat: there are not two lives, but two parts of the same life. Possessing the Lord on earth, we automatically possess Him after death, but in a wonderfully different way.

Please Pray for Our Deceased: Fr. Francisco Villena SSP (1983)--Sr. Nair De Bona FSP FSP (1983)--Teresa Ugenti HFI (1984)--Sr. M. Pia Crosio FSP (1990)--Sr. M. Albina Fasolo FSP (2001)--Sr. M. Pieria Vicari FSP (2007)--Sr. M. Olimpia Tuninetti FSP (2008)--Lt. James A. Ducote Jr. USMC (1995)
