The Roof Repair is Completed
The new roof could not have gone so smoothly
and completed in good order without the
assistance and generosity of the people of the
Parish.
Feast of Corpus Christi
The Feast of Corpus Christi originated in 1246 when Robert de Torote, bishop of Liège, ordered the festival celebrated in his diocese. He was persuaded to initiate the feast by St. Juliana, prioress of Mont Cornillon near Liège (1222–58), who had experienced a vision. It did not spread until 1261, when Jacques Pantaléon, formerly Archdeacon of Liège, became pope as Urban IV. In 1264 he ordered the whole church to observe the feast. Urban’s order was confirmed by Pope Clement Vat the Council of Vienne in 1311–12.
Surrender Prayer Novena
Day 9
Pray always in readiness to surrender, and you will receive from it great peace and great rewards, even when I confer on you the grace of immolation, of repentance and of love. Then what does suffering matter? It seems impossible to you? Close your eyes and say with all your soul, "Jesus, you take care of it". Do not be afraid, I will take care of things and you will bless my name by humbling yourself. A thousand prayers cannot equal one single act of surrender, remember this will.
Surrender Prayer Novena
Day 8
Close your eyes and let yourself be carried away on the flowing current of my grace; close your eyes and do not think of the present, turning your thoughts away from the future just as you would from temptation. Repose in me, believing in my goodness, and I promise you by my love that if you say "Jesus, you take care of it" I will take care of it all; I will console you, liberate you and guide you.
O Jesus, I surrender myself to you, take care of everything!
Surrender Prayer Novena
Day 7
I perform miracles in proportion to your full surrender to me and to your not thinking of yourselves. I sow treasure troves of graces when you are in the deepest poverty. No person of reason, no thinker, has ever perform miracles, not even among the saints. He does divine works whosoever surrenders to God. So don't think about it anymore, because your mind is acute and for you it is very hard to see evil and to trust in me and to not think of yourself.

Surrender Prayer Novena
Day 6
You are sleepless; you want to judge everything, direct everything and see to everything and you surrender to human strength or worse - to men themselves, trusting in their intervention, - this is what hinders my words and my views. Oh I suffer when I see you so agitated! Satan tries to d exactly this: to agitate you and to remove you from my protection and to throw you into the jaws of human initiative. So, trust only in me, rest in me, surrender to me in everything.
Surrender Prayer Novena
Day 5
And when I must lead you on a path different from the one you see, I will prepare you; I will carry you in my arm; I will let you find myself, like children who have fallen asleep in their mother's arms, on the other bank of the river. What troubles you and hurts you immensely are your reason, your thoughts and worry, and your desire at all costs to deal with what afflicts you.
O Jesus, I surrender myself to you, take care of everything!
Surrender Prayer Novena
Day 4
You see evil growing instead of weakening? Do not worry. Close your eyes and say to me with faith: "Thy will be done, You take care of it". I say to you that I will take care of it, and that I will intervene as does a doctor and I will accomplish miracles when they are needed. Do you see that the sick person is getting worse? Do not be upset, but close your eyes and say "You take care of it". I say to you that I sill take care of it, and that there is no medicine more powerful than my loving intervention.
