Prayer for Preparation and Study
Lord, I know you are with me and love me.
Give me peace of mind as I prepare for this time of study.
Help me to focus on my books and notes,
keep me from all distractions so that I will make the best use
of this time that is available to me.
Give me insight that I might understand what I am studying ,
and help me to remember it when the time comes.
Above all, I thank you for the ability to be able to study
and for the many gifts and talents you have given me.
Help me always to use them in such a way
that they honour you and do justice to myself. Amen
“They devoted themselves to the teaching of the apostles and to the communal life, to the breaking of the bread and to the prayers” -- (Acts 2:42)

Spiritual Direction...a Companion on the Journey of Faith!
The goal of a spiritual director is to help you recognize how the Holy Spirit is working in your life. The emphasis is deepening one’s relationship, not with the spiritual director but with God, by developing an active, vital prayer life. While a spiritual director can and should offer advice, you are always free to make your own decisions and choices. Interested or need more information, please contact Deacon Frank Lucca or Fr. David at X8872.
