HOLY FATHER’S PRAYER INTENTION
FOR AUGUSTFamilies, Schools of Human Growth
That families, through their life of prayer and love, become ever more clearly “schools of true human growth”.
FATHER LEDOUX’S PRAYER INTENTIONS
FOR AUGUSTWORSHIP: Celebrating, this month, the Solemnity of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary (August 15th), patroness of the Acadian people, and the Queenship of the Blessed Virgin Mary, may we recall with Thanksgiving our Lady's perfect example of Faith and her many protections and favors shown to us through her loving intercession.
FAITH FORMATION: We pray for all parents and children at the start of a new year of Catechism instruction. As the first teachers of the Faith to their children, may parents be guided in handing on the precious gift of our Catholic Faith to all our children.
EVANGELIZATION: This month is dedicated to the Most Blessed Sacrament. In a special way we give thanks for 35 grace-filled years of Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration in His Divine Presence. May all hearts of our community be transformed by the grace of Jesus' Transfiguration through Adoration of the Most Holy Eucharist so that we may desire nothing else to Him.
SOCIAL JUSTICE: Let us pray for an end to the violence against our fellow brothers & sisters of all nationalities, races & creeds. We pray for the healing of communities & families who are grieving & divided. May the God of peace arouse in all an authentic desire for dialogue & reconciliation. “Violence cannot be overcome with violence. Violence is overcome with peace!” -Pope FrancisBUILDINGS AND FACILITIES: In gratitude for all those who are financially offering more so we can meet the needs of our Combined Diocesan & Parish Capital Campaign while continuing the great ministries & outreach to the people of our church Parish & Diocese.
