Morning Offering given

Jesus, take me as I am
Summon out what I should be
Set your seal upon my heart
Holy Spirit dwell in me

Village sleeps

Coffee good

St Veronica shows us how to welcome opportunities to “wipe the face of Jesus” by helping the poor, the hungry, and the suffering in our world. Lord, may Veronica’s courageous example strengthen my resolve to seek Your face in everyone I meet.

Meditations for Each Day, pg 50, Work and Sanctity “…it is not enough to work alone, just as it is not enough to pray alone, in order to become holy. Either on its own is too little.”
