First Friday

Saint Paul reminds us that our citizenship is in heaven. We must remember constantly that we are a pilgrim people. The reason we were born is to be with God forever in heaven. Christ Himself exhorts us in the scriptures to pursue heavenly realities with but a fraction of the fervor that we often pursue the things of this world.

We have a special opportunity on the First Friday of the month to remember the infinite love Christ shows us in the Blessed Sacrament of the Altar. He gives so much to us and in return asks so very little. All He longs for is our unconditional love in return! Today let us make a special effort to visit Christ in the Blessed Sacrament and pray for His mercy and love!

Sincerely in Christ,

Rev. Jeffery A. Fasching
