Weekly Prayer
Today is the feast day of St. Francis of Assisi, beloved patron of animals, ecology, Italy and more! As we celebrate homecoming we pray that the CCHS community truly lives this prayer of St. Francis:
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace:
where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
where there is sadness, joy.
O divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek
to be consoled as to console,
to be understood as to understand,
to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive,
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
St. Joseph our Patron, pray for us. Amen

• Blankets for Father Joe’s Villages
As you know CCHS has a special relationship with Father Joe’s Villages. They count on us for weekly volunteers helping with meals for those folks who are homeless in San Diego. We’ve received an urgent call for help. Father Joe’s is out of blankets and the nights are getting cooler.
For the next two home football games, including the Holy Bowl, Dons are asked to bring new or gently used blankets to donate to Father Joe’s. It’s even ok if you use it to stay warm during the game and then donate it in the collection boxes outside of Mission & Ministry! Mission & Ministry will have boxes for collection over the next two weeks so anytime you’d like to drop over with a blanket we’d appreciate it.
THANK YOU Dons for helping to put your faith in action, really serving others by helping them stay warm!
