Tuesday, January 4th is the Feast Day of St. Elizabeth. Consider coming to daily Mass. If 6:45am is too early for you, be sure to say a prayer. To honor her and make a connection to our parish, prayer cards are available. Please plan to take these cards and pray them with your family. St. Elizabeth went through difficult times and kept her faith. Use these cards to pray during tough times and share them with family and friends who are also facing struggles. The intercession of the communion of saints is a source of great strength! There are still some gifts wrapped up from Christmas – grab a prayer book which contains quotes from St. Elizabeth Ann Seton.
Prayer to Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton:
Lord God, you blessed Elizabeth Seton with gifts of grace as wife and mother, educator and foundress, so that she might spend her life in service to your people.
Through her example and prayers may we learn to express our love for you in love for our fellow men and women.
We ask this through Christ our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.
Amen.
