St Raphael Prayer

For all moms who are praying for the intention of their dc finding their true spouse or vocation.

"O Raphael, lead our children toward those they are waiting for, those who are waiting for them: Raphael, Angel of happy meeting, lead them by the hand toward those they are looking for. May all their movements be guided by your Light and transfigured with your joy. "

Catholic Cuisine

modesty checklist
"All the good works in the world
are not equal to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass
because they are the works of men;
but the Mass is the work of God.
Martyrdom is nothing in comparison
for it is but the sacrifice of man to God;
but the Mass is the sacrifice of God for man."
St. Jean Vianney
We must always choose the most perfect. Two good works present themselves to be done, one in favour of a person we love, the other in favour of a person who has done us some harm. Well, we must give preference to the latter. - Saint John Vianney
