Blessed Solemnity of the Assumption!

Today, as we celebrate the Assumption of our Blessed Mother, may we also be reminded of God's love for us, both body and soul. Join us in prayer:

Mary, Mother of Mercy,
intercede for us, your children.

Keep us under your protection,
safe from all harm, healthy in
mind, body, and spirit.

Under your watchful care,
may we avoid the pitfalls of
prejudice, ingratitude,
injustice, and violence.

And may we be always worthy
of the promises of Christ.

Amen.

In celebration of today's feast of St. Clare, we're highlighting some snippets of our new release THE PARADOX OF POVERTY by Susan Pitchford.

The new book shows us that varied kinds of poverty can become a “blessing” by bringing us to know our belovedness in God. St. Clare, through her radical life, shows us a prime example of this.

Happy Feast! Order your copy of the new book today: https://hubs.li/Q03C5G2l0
