NOTICE:
Fr. Paul's Facebook page (Paul Ring Ofs) was hacked on August 8th. He is not selling his car,
and anyone asking for money for it is a fraud! Please do not send them any money!! If you are
on Facebook, please unfriend and report this profile.
Due to the hack, the parish Facebook pages are also suspended. We are working on getting them restored, but until that happens there will be no livestreaming or posting.
If you have any questions, please contact the parish office. Thank you.

DAILY BREAD
Prayer for Spiritual Communion
by St. Maximillian Kolbe
My Jesus, I believe that you are present in this Holy Sacrament of the altar.
I love you above all things and I passionately desire to receive you into my soul.
Since I cannot now receive you sacramentally, come spiritually into my soul so that I may unite myself wholly to you now and forever.
Amen.
