Thy Kingdom Come!
Dear friends in Christ,
Join me in a 45 DAY CHALLENGE FOR VOCATIONS!
He said to them, “The harvest is abundant but the laborers are few; so ask the master of the harvest to send out laborers for his harvest.” LUKE 10:2
For 45 days, beginning on November 11 during National Vocations Week and the first day of the Novena to Christ the King and ending on December 25 Christmas Day, I am going to do one vocation promotion related action daily. Everyone can participate: men, women, couples, children - click here for more information and a tracker. Actions can include prayer, Adoration, sacrifice, talking to your children or young people about vocations and more!
A visit to the seminary is a beautiful way to learn more about and offer support for vocations! You are invited to the Christ the King Sunday Mass on Nov 20th in Cheshire,CT. The Legionary brothers have their Christmas Concert on December 17th!
Let's unite and make this our gift to Jesus for His generosity will never be outdone.
In Christ,
Jeff Sprague
RC Local Director

Following the Light of the World
"Don't get upset with your imperfections. It's a great mistake because it leads nowhere - to get angry because you are angry, upset at being upset, depressed at being depressed, disappointed because you are disappointed. So don't fool yourself. Simply surrender to the Power of God's Love, which is always greater than our weakness." | St Francis DeSales #catholic #catolico #autumn #faith
