The Prodigals
A few months ago we started a little prayer group ( thanks Jackie for initiating this ) with a prayer petitioning St. Monica to intercede for us in our worries and anxieties. As a mournful mother, of a prodigal son, Saint Monica understands a mother's heart. So after mass, we pray for the intentions that are in our hearts: our loved ones, our spouses, children, grandchildren, etc. A couple of weeks ago our parish was given this beautiful icon as a gift. Thank you Gloria! God bless you!
Lately, I, have extended my prayers to include children who are being led astray by a society that has lied to them about their identity as children of God, male and female wonderfully made in His image and likeness. This saddens me so much. Our leaders, have let them down, by pushing this radical sexual agenda everywhere: in our schools, our hospital, and our Universities. For the sake of our children O Lord, please open the eyes of all who are blind to the harm that is being inflicted on our little ones Bring them back!
In the 50's it was lobotomies. Today it is the sexual exploitation, abuse, and mutilation of children
Saint Monica pray for all these little ones and for their families

You shall be clothed with power Jim Cowan
When the Holy Spirit comes to you,
And you shall be my witnesses

Go forth to all the world and tell the Good News
Proclaim God’s Kingdom has come
Through the Triumph of His Son!
You shall be clothed with power from on high
When the Holy Spirit comes to you,
And you shall be my witnesses
Throughout the ends of the earth

The works that I have done, you also shall do
And still there’s more to come
For my Spirit rests on you!
You shall be clothed with power from on high
When the Holy Spirit comes to you,
And you shall be my witnesses
Throughout the ends of the earth

The deaf shall hear My voice, the blind shall see.
The lame shall leap for joy
And the captives shall be free
You shall be clothed with power from on high
When the Holy Spirit comes to you,
And you shall be my witnesses
Throughout the ends of the earth
(Repeat)
Throughout the ends of the earth

Suicide, Depression, and a ‘Crisis of Hope’: Offering Real Help to Our Youth in Despair
COMMENTARY: Our young people’s sadness, hopelessness and suicidal thoughts are a desperate cry for this attentive love in the midst of their existential and ever-urgent questions.
Much of the media commentary on the numbers in the CDC’s report focused on what had changed for girls since 2011 that would lead to such harrowing trends. (photo: Thomas Andre Fure / Shutterstock)
Father Roger Landry CommentariesMay 2, 2023
On Feb. 13, the Centers for Disease Control published its biennial Youth Risk Behavior Survey Data Summary and Trends Report for 2011-2021 and it showed the truly alarming, and rapidly worsening, situation of the mental and spiritual health of high school students in the United States.
The report documented that 42% of U.S. high school teens in 2021 said they felt persistently sad or hopeless, 22% seriously considered attempting suicide in the previous year, 18% had come up with a concrete plan on how they would end their life, and 10% percent actually tried to carry out that plan (and thankfully failed).
As worrisome as those numbers are, the breakdown between boys and girls was even more distressing. Fifty-seven percent of high school girls felt persistently sad or hopeless (compared to 29% of boys), 30% of girls seriously contemplated suicide in the previous year (14% of boys) and 24% (12% for boys) had a suicide plan.
And the rapid increase in persistent sadness and suicidal ideation among teenage girls is likewise startling: Since 2011, persistent sadness and hopelessness had grown from 36% to 57%, suicidal thoughts from 19% to 30%, and suicide plans from 15% to 24%, a 60% increase in each category in a decade. (Over the same span, chronic sadness among high school boys had grown from 21% to 29%, suicidal thoughts from 13%-14%, and suicidal plans from 11%-12%).

Run With Life: Born-alive late term abortions

I have finally posted all my blogs regarding Canada's atrocious situation regarding late-term born-alive abortions on its own page. All my posts on late term (>20 weeks and > 500 grams) born-alive or live-birth abortions in Canada are below. It's a nightmare. Except it's not a dream.
