Friday, June 13
OF THE DAY
ST ANTHONY OF PADUA, PRIEST, 
DOCTOR OF THE CHURCH

1 Kgs 19: 9-16
Ps 27: 7-14
Mt 5: 27-32

Saint Paul the Apostle, my father and most faithful disciple of Jesus, strengthen me: I want to commit myself and over-commit myself until Jesus Christ is formed in me (RSP 477).

From Father Tom: "Over-commit myself?" Is it possible? Can we do too much for the Master who did everything for us? No , because--as St. Paul might say--we are constantly dying to what is already decayed and trying to live in the new and eternal life. You can't have too much of that process?

Please Pray For Our Deceased: Sr. M. Bonifacia del Bene PD (1960)--Sr. M. Teresa Raffa PD (1984)--Fr. Leonardo Minervini IJP (1985)--Sr. M. Vittoria Pigato FSP (1988)--Sr. M. Giovanna Rondinelli (1990)--Sr. LuizaYamada FSP (1995)--Sr. M. Lourdes Dalle Molle SGBP (2006)--Steve Candela (1918)--David Slovacek (2003).
