Many people know St. Christopher is the patron saint of travelers. Not as widely known is a St. Christopher prayer known as the Motorist's Prayer. Let us take a look and see that this prayer is so much more than a plea to St Christopher for a safe journey. Grant me, O Lord, a steady hand and a watchful eye Notice the prayer is actually directed to our Lord and asks for specifics that will make for a safe journey, not a general intercession Shelter those, dear Lord, who bear my company from the evils of fire and all calamity " without me you can do nothing". Teach me to use my car for others needs The corporal works of mercy come to mind Nor miss through love of undue speed the beauty of the world; that thus I may with joy and courtesy go on my way Appreciate all God's creation and let your senses be like the wonder and faith of a young child St. Christopher, holy patron of travelers, protect me and lead me safely to my destination.

Światowe Dni Młodzieży w Krakowie!!! Strefa Pojednania - tam w ukryciu i po cichu dokonają się największe cuda - To będzie miejsce cudów i doświadczania Bożego Miłosierdzia - mówi Anna Wojna z sekcji pastoralnej. Bóg na nas czeka w tym sakramencie i jak mówi papież Franciszek nigdy się nie zmęczy przebaczaniem. To jest niepojęte, że Bóg dał nam taką możliwość wracania do Niego. On czeka na każdego z ogromną miłością. Jeśli tylko podchodzimy do tego sakramentu z pokorą i z prawdziwym żalem, to się dokonują niesamowite rzeczy. - Jeden z teologów, mówi Anna Wojna, powiedział, że w sakramencie pojednania Pan Bóg odnawiając serce człowieka, działa dokładnie z taką samą mocą, jak przy stworzeniu. To niewyobrażalna moc, bo wtedy faktycznie dokonuje się nowe stworzenie, zupełne zmazanie win. Modlitwa do Świętego Krzysztofa - Patrona Kierowców! Boże daj mi pewną rękę i bystre oko, abym nikomu nie wyrządził żadnej krzywdy. Nie pozwól Dawco życia, bym stał się przyczyną śmierci lub kalectwa, a także zachowaj od nieszczęścia i wypadku. Pohamuj moją pokusę nadmiernej szybkości. Oby piękno stworzonego przez Ciebie świata i radość Twej łaski towarzyszyły mi zawsze. Amen. Modlitwa misyjna!,,.,,.!,,.,.... W ten weekend w naszej parafii przeprowadzany jest Apel Misyjny. Ks. Michael August de Leon of the Disciples of Mary z Filipin będzie dzielił się z nami informacjami z terenów misyjnych. Prosimy o modlitwę w intencji wszystkich misjonarzy pracujących na misjach, jak również w miarę możliwości o wsparcie finansowe. Życzymy Wam samych słonecznych dni i bezpiecznego podróżowania, udanych i spokojnych wakacji. Niech Św. Krzysztof Was prowadzi, a Pan Bóg nad Wami czuwa. Pamiętajcie o Mszach Świętych w niedziele i modlitwie w dni powszednie. Prosimy także, abyście nie zapominali o swojej Parafii. Niestety rachunki nie mają wakacji. W miarę możliwości, uzupełniajcie donacje na kościół. Bóg zapłać.

World Youth Day in Krakow: "Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy" This week, the universal Church focuses in prayerful solidarity on World Youth Day in Krakow, where WYD's founder, Saint John Paul II, served as archbishop. Its theme coincides with that of Pope Francis' Jubilee Year of Mercy: "Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy" (Matthew 5:7). Today's Gospel echoes the same theme, as Jesus unites prayer with mercy in "The parable of the persistent friend." Jesus teaches us not only what words to pray, but what deeds must match authentic prayer. How beautifully down-to-earth is Jesus' portrait of a God who can be trusted to do what is best for us. A pesky neighbor disturbs a sleeping friend and disrupts the household. Yet beautiful images unfold. Persevering prayer receives active, practical mercy in loaves of bread, recalling Luke's unique expression for the Eucharist, "the breaking of bread" (Luke 24:35; Acts 2:42). WYD, the Jubilee, and Jesus thus unite to define perfect prayer as persevering communion with God and unconditional mercy toward our neighbor. St. Adalbert / Sts.
