Fr. Byers
This is the first time in our ten years of existence that we were able to provide for all the priests who asked for our financial assistance during the month of December!
I want to thank you from all the priests and staff of Opus Bono for your prayers and support.

Finally, the priests of St. Rose of Lima parish in Newtown, CT where the shootings occurred desperately need our prayers. Tabitha, the sister to Father Luke Suarez at St. Rose of Lima asked that we forward to you the need for prayers for her brother Father Luke, Father Ignacio Ortigas, Monsignor Weiss who are tirelessly working over these past two weeks with the aftermath of the tragedy. Many of their parishioners were involved and lost their children.Sincerely in the Heart of the Infant,
Pete
[You heard the man. Add Father Luke, Father Ignacio Ortigas and Monsignor Weiss to your prayer list. Hail Mary...]

Accompany me, Father George David Byers, S.S.L., S.T.D., as I begin life as a Catholic Priest-Hermit by choice. Holy Souls Hermitage is dedicated to the sanctification of my fellow priests, bishops, deacons & seminarians going through the purgatory of this life or the next. Prayer and sacrifice go up, of course, for both Benedict XVI and the next Successor of Saint Peter. 
Have had the St Rose of Lima parish priests on our prayer list since the tragedy. Have asked the parish prayer group I lead (100 members) to send them Epiphany cards and prayers of support. Our pastor has been in touch with Mgsr Weiss and several of our parishioners have offered financial support. All he has asked for is prayer. So we are praying for his (and the priests under his charge) wisdom, courage, endurance, hope, holiness and love. They are certainly not alone or forgotten. Many offerings and sacrifices are being made for the priesthood here in NC. God bless you for yours
