Hi Everybody

Please pray for our YAG; we strive to be a good, solid group that is faithful to the true teachings of the Church, in a diocese (like many others in the U.S.) that has had some problems with dissent in the recent past. In the nearly 3 years since I’ve been a member, we’ve had some very challenging times; and the latest has been that someone has fabricated a false name and has emailed our parish moderator with some false complaints against us.

This has caused me a tremendous amount of anger this week; I find my imagination either going in crazy directions, or I ruminate over this when I should be concentrating on my work!

Please pray for my peace of mind with all of this, as well as the correct charitable and prudent action I should take in all of this. Pray that we can truly surrender this group to the will of God and that we are not fooling ourselves when we are really trying to gratify our own egos.

Finally, please pray for the future of our ministry and whether we should try to continue with the Parish or not. Perhaps it is not God’s will that it exists? Perhaps we should become a lay apostolate? Or, perhaps God is calling me to another ministry.

I want to have true peace of mind with all of this!

Thank you and God Bless
 
From today’s Liturgy of the Hours:

Mid-morning reading (Terce) Romans 8:15 - 16 ©
The spirit you received is not the spirit of slaves bringing fear into your lives again; it is the spirit of sons, and it makes us cry out, ’Abba, Father!’ The Spirit himself and our spirit bear united witness that we are children of God.

Prayers and Intercessions
Let us pray to God, who sent the Holy Spirit to be a light shining in every heart:
  • Lord, be our light.
Blessed are you, God our light:
for the sake of your glory you have brought us to this new day.
By the incarnation of your Son you sent light into this world:
through your Church, spread that light to all mankind.
You enlightened your Son’s disciples by your Spirit:
send your Spirit into the Church and keep her faithful to you.
Light of the nations, remember those who dawdle in the shadows:
open their eyes and their hearts, so that they see you are the one true God.

Our Father, who art in Heaven,
hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come,
thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread,
and forgive us our trespasses
as we forgive those that trespass against us,
and lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.

Almighty and ever-living God, guide our actions and make them pleasing to you,
so that in the name of your beloved Son
we may overflow with good works.

Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son,
who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
God for ever and ever.
Amen.
 
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou amongst women, and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now, and at the hour of our death, Amen.
 
May you and all in your YAG be blessed abundantly, and may you all hold steadfast to God’s will. May you be filled with peace in these times of struggle, may you find quiet time to listen to the Holy Spirit, and may your heart always be open and yielding to Him, our Almighty God and Father. Praise to you, Lord Jesus Christ, for all of these young people who strive to know you and do your will!

May The Holy Spirit guide you through this difficult time and establish you in Peace and in Joy and knowledge of God’s Will with courage…
 
Thanks for your prayers, everyone! We had a good meeting last night; lots of great scripture study and deep discussion, with an overall sense of peace. Our moderator wasn’t there, but I know we will have to confront this issue sooner or later. Your prayers are really helping
