"Praise the Lord, for He Is Good"

"We are never alone in our sufferings. Should we ever experience the anguish of being ridiculed or put down by family of friends, we are never alone.

The Lord Jesus stands with us in our times of trial, giving us the grace we need to bear patiently with our sufferings, never stooping to do the same level as those who would cause us pain.

Through the Holy Eucharist we participate in the saving death and glorious resurrection of the Lord.

May the grace of the Holy Eucharist being us forbearance and courage as we carry our crosses."
