Should I vote in the upcoming Election? . . .

The downloadable document below, a collection of accepted moral theologians from days past, all seem to concurr that we ought to vote, most especially when the election is crucial and the common good of society will be greatly affected by the outcome. The principle used most to justify this is not so much choosing a lesser evil, but rather striving to limit evil. It is recommended from these summaries that we all vote to do just that... limit evil in order to seek the common good of society. May God reward you!

Note that a few of these pictures are of the initial clay model and the original (found at St. John the Baptist in Needham Market, East Anglia)

Please note that not all the angels have been paid for in case you would like to help...

they ended up costing about $3,500 each.

Water Color of our Proposed Grotto . . .

 

Thanks to your continued support, we are  planning to build a beautiful Grotto to complement our parish and provide a place for our congregation to pray and light candles... but most especially to give honor to the highest honor of our race. For how can we have a church dedicated to Our Lady of Lourdes without a Grotto? We now have the plans according to which we hope to hollow out a place in the rock worthy of Our Lady of Lourdes. Yet, the planned Grotto is modest, with modest statuary to match our modest church. It will be a place of repose and meditation with a water feature set in beautifully landscaped hillside.

Prayer in Time of Affliction

 

Blessed, O Lord, be Thy Name forever, Who has permitted this affliction to come upon us. We cannot escape it, but must of necessity fly to Thee to help us and turn it to our good.


Lord, we are now in affliction. Our souls are ill at ease, for we are much troubled with this present suffering. Let it please Thee, O Lord, to deliver us, for, poor wretches that we are, what can we do without Thee? Thy mighty Hand can do all things.


Give us patience, O Lord, and strength and peace. Help us, O God, and we will not fear, no matter how grievously we may be afflicted. O Lord, “Thy Will be done!” Welcome be the Will of God! Sacred Heart of Jesus, we place our trust in Thee
