Help for those who have had an abortion or thinking about an abortion

 

A few weeks ago, I fell upon this very interesting book at our local chapel. The book is called Return of the Children by: John Regan. This book is a very easy read. I honestly could not put it down. I read almost half of it in one time stretch. After three visits to the Blessed Sacrament, I had finished reading it. It truly did captivate me and it really brings to light the awesome gift of love and forgiveness of God.

Sunday is the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe.

Our Lady of Guadalupe, PRAY FOR US!

We have a new addition to our family!!!

Hello all!

We were blessed to have Raymond Kolbe join our family on Saturday, April 8, 2006 around 10:25AM. He weighed in at 8 pounds 13 ounces (about 3997 grams).

The delivery went well, and both Lucille and the baby are doing very well.

Thank you all for your prayers!

Pax vobis (Peace be with you),

J.E.

Madonna of Childbirth pray for us.

Mary, you carried Jesus for nine months. You know first hand the worries and concerns of an expectant mother. Lucille is now 15 weeks into our pregnancy, Mary please intercede for her and for Pitou. You experienced giving birth to our Lord in a strange place with no outside help but St. Joseph. Pray for us to have a safe pregnancy and birth.

St. Joseph, please pray for me to be a good and holy husband and father. Help me to learn how you managed to provide for your little family. Teach me to have the same look of love that you had for Mary and Jesus. Teach me to be as obedient to God the Father as you were.

Thank you Mary and Joseph for your awesome witness to the graces to be found in family. Thank you both for being such great parents to Jesus.

Pax vobis,

J.E.
