Note: the quality of this talk is not the best.  The recording was cutting in and out in some spots for some reason, but the overall talk flows well.

ST. LIDWINA CHRONIC PAIN SUPPORT GROUP
You don't have to suffer alone. St. Lidwina is a Dutch saint who was injured in a fall while ice skating. As a result of her injuries, she was bedridden for the rest of her life and endured excruciating pain. Yet she quietly accepted this suffering and prayed constantly during her many years of agony. Her feast day is celebrated on April 14th.

Do you or someone you love suffer from chronic pain?
Does this impact your/their spiritual lives?
Are you/they finding it difficult to carry this cross?


Father Larry Swink has started an online apostolate aimed at those who suffer from chronic pain--a cause he can all too well identify with. It will be a forum for those to share their struggles and for Father to give Catholic advice on how to better carry this cross as well as a venue to share online Healing Masses and prayers. Meetings are held online on Monday evenings at 7PM.  Registration is required here:

​The Anxious Mysteries    by Fr. Joseph Sergot, O.P., LIGHT and LIFE - July-Aug 2023, Vol 76, No 4,
THEOLOGY FOR THE LAITY is a publication of the Western Dominican Province.
Are you living the Anxious Mysteries?
You have never heard of the Anxious Mysteries. And yet, I'll bet you have probably lived them at one time or another in your life—perhaps even now. The “Anxious Mysteries” is a term I have coined to refer to those times in our lives when we let fear and anxiety paralyze us. In these moments, instead of presenting our trials to God while seeking the help and peace that only he can give, we allow our own fears and anxiety to prevent us from living our faith, and sometimes even our life. There is a sure antidote to the Anxious Mysteries in the Joyful Mysteries of the Rosary, Mary's indispensable prayer. In fact, juxtaposition of the two sets of mysteries reveals how one can lead to our ruin and the other to our salvation.  (click below for more ...)
