Thoughts to Ponder



Those who wish
to sing always
find a song.
-Swedish Proverb




Since we receive the Body and Blood of Christ in the Eucharist we too become living Monstrances and we can make Christ visible each day to those we meet by our kind words and deeds.

God and Father of us all,
In Jesus, your Son and Savior,
you have made us your
sons and daughters
in the family of the Church.
May your grace and love
help our families in every
part of the world be united
to one another in fidelity
to the Gospel.

May the example of the Holy Family,
with the aid of your Holy Spirit,
guide all families, especially those
most troubled, to be homes of
communion and prayer and to
always seek your truth and live
in your love.
Through Christ our Lord.
Amen.

One Nation   Under God  

"If then my people, upon whom my name has been pronounced, humble themselves and pray, and seek my face and turn from their evil ways, I will hear them from heaven and pardon their sins and heal their land." 2Chronicles7:14

 

Dearest Jesus, 
behold we humble ourselves, 
seek your face and turn from our evil ways. 
Please pardon our sins, heal and convert 
America as it is being destroyed by 
abortion and many other grave sins. 
Fill America with the Gifts of the Holy Spirit 
to spread God's love to the whole world.

Heavenly Father, please save America!
We ask this in the most 
Holy Name of Jesus.
Amen.

        

Our Fr. Bill Damroth
has been appointed Pastor
of St. Francis of Assisi

Congratulations and God Bless




 

Father in Heaven,
We, the people,
In the land of the free
and the home of the brave.
We come before you.
Help us to not only seek
blessings for ourselves,
but to seek to bless others.
We ask for your guidance and
wisdom for our leaders.
We ask for your protection for our land
from enemies, both within and without.
And we praise you for the freedom
we have through the blood of your Son.

Amen.

Assisi Prayer Garden

On Friday evening, July 8th, our beautiful garden was blessed by our Pastor ... Fr. Bill ... during an outdoor Mass as witnessed by many.  


The first of many garden Masses to come.  

We again receive the generosity and good works of others - an altar is being constructed within the garden.  

 

                         

The Church

Our Lady of Lourdes Prayer Niche – in the back corner of the Church, a beautiful setting for peaceful prayer and solitude.  Come visit, a book is available to leave prayer intentions.

                                                                The Grounds

Having arrived June 7th, Christ the King stands staunch on the front lawn of the Rectory overseeing, more often then not, the troubled streets of Newburgh.  Turned to face the city itself, he represents the faith filled, prayful community of St. Francis and the goodness to come to our city.  Blessed as well by Fr. Bill on the evening of July 8th.





                                                 




                 


The Convent                   
  


And what do we see at the back door of the convent ... a fresh new look.
Representative of the life that will soon fill the Convent and reflect to the community.



The beautiful statue of Our Blessed Mother, donated by Rachael and Paul Neubauer,  stands at the convent to watch over and welcome our new resisdents who will be arriving in a few weeks.
