🧦 SVP Socktober Appeal – Help Keep Feet Warm This Winter! 🧦
As the weather turns colder, one of the most requested and needed items for people experiencing homelessness is warm socks.
How you can help:
Donate new pairs of socks (all sizes welcome, men’s and women’s especially needed).
Drop off donations at St Mary's and St Patrick's in the boxes in the porch.
Spread the word!
A simple pair of socks can provide comfort, warmth, and dignity to someone in need. Together, we can make a big difference—one pair at a time.
Let’s make this Socktober our warmest yet!"

Pause to watch the sky for a few minutes today and take a moment to talk to God as you would to a friend.

Have a "no plans" day and notice how that feels.

Lord Jesus, we your people pray to You for our priests. You have given them to us for OUR needs. We pray for them in THEIR needs.

We know that You have made them priests in the likeness of your own priesthood. You have consecrated them, set them aside, annointed them, filled them with the Holy Spirit, appointed them to teach, to preach, to minister, to console, to forgive, and to feed us with Your Body and Blood.

Yet we know, too, that they are one with us and share our human weaknesses. We know too that they are tempted to sin and discouragement as are we, needing to be ministered to, as do we, to be consoled and forgiven, as do we. Indeed, we thank You for choosing them from among us, so that they understand us as we understand them, suffer with us and rejoice with us, worry with us and trust with us, share our beings, our lives, our faith.

We ask that You give them this day the gift You gave Your chosen ones on the way to Emmaus: Your presence in their hearts, Your holiness in their souls, Your joy in their spirits. And let them see You face to face in the breaking of the Eucharistic bread.

We pray to You, O Lord, through Mary the mother of all priests, for Your priests and for ours. Amen.

Being mentally strong doesn't mean ignoring your emotions. If you feel regularly overwhelmed by certain situations in your life, first pray to the Holy Spirit for guidance then practice the three C's and try some emotional regulation skills.
