My day to pray for cmomc.

Chiro & Reflexology today

1st Wednesday… To your Chaste Heart, we consecrate ourselves, on this day, O Glorious Saint Joseph. We consecrate our families and all that we have. Just as you protect Jesus and Mary, protect my soul and my life also, O my Beloved Protector, against the dangers that surround me and attack me. O Glorious Saint Joseph, teach me to love deeply the most Holy Hearts of Jesus and Mary, so that you may come to love deeply as they your Most Chaste Heart, honoring it and making it known, as you deserve and ought to be Honored and loved for all eternity. Amen!

St. Odilia

Overview

The lighting in the shrine was interesting. You couldn’t see the flickering and streaks with the naked eye. However, with the camera, they were very obvious, but not at all if on video. The alter flickered when being looked at thru a camera, so I switched to video…the flickering stopped. The reflection in the 1st class relic photos was not there when the flashless photo was taken but very evident in the photo itself. As it is also in other photos taken around the shrine.

Hayward is waking

No coffee

The man sleeps

We head home today after enjoying a much needed time away.

The shrines we visited were worth the drive. St Kateri was a favorite of my F-i-l and is also dd#1’s confirmation saint. However, at the time Kateri was blessed, permission was needed. St. Odilia is the patroness of eye issues. Our dd#4 and our niece I were laid before her to take to Jesus.

These two shrines are very small, are located in out of the way places, and were unknown to us until about a month ago. Well worth the drive.

Prayer for the Crosier Order they are aging out. May God bring them young men to be priests & brothers.

Knees are bad. Dr. apt is 15th

Headed home tomorrow

Let’s talk motel toilets.  I touched on this month’s ago but need to address it again.

Children’s toilets should not be used in motel rooms.  Bathrooms should be large enough that while sitting on the toilet, neither shoulder touches the wall or hangs over the tub. This is the fault of the contractor. But the fault also lies with the inspector and the builder.  Nuff said.

I’m smiling.  Just looked out the window, and I see a couple here from the south.  I am in tank top and shorts; they are in long pants, long sleeve shirts, and heavy hooded sweatshirts.  I’m think yeah! Beautiful weather day for the lake, a bonfire, etc. For some reason, I don’t get the same impression from them. Gotta love the northwoods.

Our Lady of Good Remedy

After much thought, I am wondering why Our Lady of Good Remedy could not intercede for those slaves of human trafficking. She helped the Christian slaves in 1198. Why not now? So, I wrote a prayer asking for her help.

Dearest Mary

We come to you and the Christ child

just as the Trinitarians did in 1198

to free the slaves (child & adult)

caught in human trafficking.

We place them in your hands and 

the hands of the Christ Child

under the title of

“Our Lady of Good Remedy”

so that ultimately

they will be freed through

Christ’s passion and resurrection

Amen.
