Saints To Call on For Help

I’m getting ready to go to my annual retreat and really looking forward to it. I have a list of things I’d like to accomplish and, of course, mostly for my personal talk with Jesus. But I also want to pray for my family and others who are suffering, have left the church or have never learned about our Catholic faith.

While doing this I have another list of saints that I’m praying to for help. How about you? Do you have one or more saints that you prayer to? Here are my main ones.

St. Charles Borromeo, St. Albert the Great, St. Francis of Assisi, St. Josemaria Escriva, St. Pope John Paul II, St. Louis de Montfort, St. Faustina, St. Mother Theresa, St. Theresa of Avila, St. Therese of Lisieux, St. Padre Pio, St. Dymphna, St. Anthony, St. Blaise, Blessed Carlo Acutis, Venerable Fulton Sheen, Blessed Michael McGivney. There are so many counting just the Apostles for example.

If you want or need prayers for any of these saints or would like to know more about them, it’s easy just to search in your browser.

Congratulations to Newly Ordained Father Grant Sennott

Father Grant SennottFather Grant Sennott was ordained priest with three other men on Saturday. Then yesterday Father Sennott celebrated his first Mass at the Nativity of Our Lord Catholic Church. It was a packed church and there were six other priests with him on the altar.

I believe Father Sennott will be a great priest. He did get a little choked up during one prayer and I understand and felt the same for him.

In addition to Father Sennot here are the names of the other newly ordained priests for our diocese: William Gibson, Christopher Holcomb and Peter Jutras. You can watch the ordination Mass here.
