Happy Spiritual Mothers’ Day!

Read and be inspired. Become a spiritual mother today!

I have many spiritual mothers. Without them, I am less than nothing. With them, I am a priest for the greater honor and glory of God.

    Although I am not *formally* a spiritual mother, I’ve been known to pray for priests….a lot.

    Father, I was wondering if you could ask the readers to keep the priests of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia in their prayers. They are having a convocation from May 14-16 and then we have 6 men being ordained to the Sacred Priesthood on Saturday the 19th. It’s a rough time to be a Catholic in Philly and we could use all the help we can get! Thank you!

  2. Hello JMD! — “a lot”

    Formally, you’re a spiritual mother of priests!

    Will do. I’ll write up a post and schedule it for early 14 May.

    Thanks for praying for the likes of us priests. Not easy praying, that!
