The Year of Faith will be a good opportunity to intensify the witness of charity. … Indeed, it is the witness of God’s love for each one of our brothers and sisters in humanity which gives true meaning to Christian charity.

PRAYER IN DEFENSE OF MARRIAGE

God our Father, we give you thanks

For the gift of marriage: the bond of life and love,

and the font of the family.

The love of husband and Wife enriches your Church with children,

fills the world with a multitude of spiritual fruitfulness and service,

and is the sign of the love of your Son, Jesus Christ, for his Church.

The grace of Jesus flowed forth at Cana at the

request of the Blessed Mother. May your Son,

through the intercession of Mary, pour out upon us

a new measure of the Gifts of the Holy Spirit

as we join with all people of good will

to promote and protect the unique beauty of marriage.

May your Holy Spirit enlighten our society

to treasure the heroic love of husband and wife,

and guide our leaders to sustain and protect

the singular place of mothers and fathers

in the lives of their children.

Father, we ask that our prayers

be joined to those of the Virgin Mary,

that your Word may transform our service

so as to safeguard the incomparable splendor of marriage.

We ask all these things through Christ our Lord,

Amen

Saints Joachim and Anne, pray for us.

WE NEED YOUR HELP!!!

Despite remarkable progress in the fight against cancer, there are many patients whose greatest challenge isn’t lack of treatment. It’s lack of transportation. Volunteer for the American Cancer Society’s Road to Recovery program, and help drive patients to their potentially lifesaving treatments in Luzerne County. Drivers for the Greater Hazleton are needed. For more information call Jen, 1-800-227-2345 option #1 or visit .
