Extended Hours of Adoration

St. Mary's will be celebrating the Eucharistic Revival by extending our hours of adoration on Tuesdays. Beginning Tuesday, July 26th, the Feast of St. Anne, the hours for adoration at St. Mary's will be 8:30 am through 8 pm. A sign-up sheet may be found in the vestibule.

St. Catherine of Genoa said that any time spent before the Eucharistic presence, be it long or short, is the best-spent time of our lives.

A Prayer for Humility

O Jesus, meek and humble of heart, cure me of my pride, make my heart humble, infuse a little of Your profound humility into my soul. Since You know me better than I know myself, how could I, with my proud will, make my heart humble? A poor man cannot give wealth to himself, nor can a proud man give humility to his heart. Only Your infinite goodness can heal pride.
