Do you know that your brain actually determines how healthy, successful, and happy you are? 

This week, Lori teaches us how the mind actually functions on a day-to-day basis, especially when it has to do with circumstances and situations, and problems in our lives.

In this online video series, brain health and Catholic mindset coach, Lori Giovannini, will show you how a healthy life begins in your brain. She gives you a step-by-step process to feeling better mentally, emotionally, spiritually, and physically. 

Each session focuses on how you can have a healthier, happier, and more successful life by understanding how the brain works.

Learn how you can:
  • decrease brain drama
  • manage your emotions
  • feel better about yourself, others, and your circumstances
  • solve your problems instead of creating new ones
  • see life as a gift from God to be shared with Him and others

Please feel free to share with family members including your teens, friends, co workers, or anyone who wants a better life.

MOTHER OF DIVINE LOVE PRAYER

The following prayer will replace the parish stewardship prayer at Mass until further notice.

Mother of Divine Love, we entrust to you our nation and world, our families and loved ones, that we may be spared the worst of this illness.

In this time of trial and testing, hear the cries of those who are vulnerable and fearful.

For those already afflicted, obtain the grace of healing and deliverance.

For those working to help the sick and bring an end to this crisis, obtain the strength to continue their work.

Shelter us under the mantle of your protection, conform us to the will of the Father, remind us always of the love of your Son, Jesus, and bring his peace to our land and to our hearts.

Amen.
Saint Rocco, protector against the plague and all contagious diseases, pray for us!
The Annual
Bishop's Appeal
The Annual Bishop's Appeal supports the work of our Local Church (our Diocese), those ministries which serve the Local Church and the work of the Parochial Church (our parish).

"The Annual Bishop’s Appeal is an opportunity for all of us to participate in the Church’s mission in "Spreading the Light of God’s Love." Although it is entitled ‘Annual Bishop’s Appeal,’ this major effort each year is not really about ‘the bishop,’ as much as it is about our love for Christ and our love for His Church. It really is an invitation to live our faith and commitment to our Lord’s mission."
▪ Bishop Kevin C. Rhoades
