May 13 Wednesday

Good morning! Happy Birthday Sadie!!!

Today is the Feast of Our Lady of Fatima. Over 100 years ago The Blessed Mother Mary appeared to three children while they were taking care of their families’ sheep. She asked them to pray the Rosary every day to help the world.

Let’s begin our day by saying the third decade of the Rosary. Use your Rosary Beads if you have them.

Please sing ‘O Mary We Crown Thee’

Please say this prayer that the Angel of Peace asked the three children to pray with him:
My God,
I believe, I adore,
I hope and I love Thee!
I beg pardon for those who
do not believe, do not adore,
do not hope and do not love Thee.
Amen

Please say the Pledge of Allegiance.

Please email me by 10:00AM so I can take and submit attendance
