Chain of Prayer for Sister Isabelle Antoinette
Please join us in a chain of prayer for Sr Isabelle Antoinette. She and another sister were hit by a vehicle in France. The other sister has recovered but Sr Isabelle is seriously injured.

Novena to Father Ernest Lelievre
Lord Jesus, through the life and ministry of Father Ernest Lelievre, You have given Your Church a friend of the poor and a tireless missionary at the service of the elderly, in the religious family founded by Saint Jeane Jugan. You gave him the grace of immense confidence in Saint Joseph, Spouse of Mary. Graciously answer our prayers and grant us the grace we are requesting through his intercession… We ask this of You who live and reign with the Father in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
