Praying for You
Sister Coletta Adelsberg, a volunteer at Villa St. Joseph, shares the following prayer:

This is a time of profound gratitude, dear Jesus.

Your sun is much warmer and brighter these mornings
in August. I am aware, sometimes unaware as I pray, that the heat of your sun penetrates my whole being. It is your breath 

in me that awakens these moments of praise and feeling your magnificent Glory. It is you, Jesus, 

who places these moments close to our hearts. I beg for the grace  to own them

so the gifts of Your sunshine and warmth these days

can be shared with those who need them. Your intense love, Jesus, embraces all your creatures in warmth these last few weeks  of summer.

Let us still feel  the Sonshine when  this season changes.

Amen, Alleluia
