Let Your holy angels stand watch and keep us in peace. Amen. Quote of the Night “Miss no single opportunity of making some small sacrifice, here by a smiling look, there by a kindly word; always doing the smallest right and doing it all for love.” —St. Therese of Lisieux Today's Meditation "The Age of Mary was rapidly becoming the Century of Total War, but she was preparing to enter the fray: to do battle with Satan in the most spectacular series of heavenly visitation in history. As Sister Lucia would tell Father Augustine Fuentes in a conversation in 1957: 'In the plans of Divine Providence, God always, before he is about to chastise the world, exhausts all the other remedies. Now, when he sees that the world has not heeded any of them, then, as we say in our imperfect manner of speaking, he offers us with a certain trepidation the last means of slavation, his most holy Mother.'" —Ten Dates Every Catholic Should Know, Diane Moczar, pg. 159 An excerpt from Ten Dates Every Catholic Should Know SHOP NOW Ten Dates Every Catholic Should Know Wines Inspired by Our Blessed Mother Our Marian wines were created to honor the Blessed Mother and the places, traditions and stories that have inspired generations of Catholics.

Recommended For You Therese of Lisieux Mother's Candle Therese of Lisieux Mother's Candle Kitchen Madonna - White Kitchen Madonna - White Examination of Conscience The daily examination of conscience is an ancient Catholic practice. It’s very simple, and it’s designed to help us identify our sins and weaknesses so that we can improve and grow stronger in the spiritual life, while providing an excellent ongoing preparation for regular Confession. It consists of taking a few minutes at the end of the day to prayerfully review our actions in the light of God’s commandments, followed by the Act of Contrition. Reflect Reflect on the victories and losses Review your actions, words, and thoughts today. Did you actively guard yourself against temptation? Where did sin creep in? In what moments did you practice virtue and moral courage? Were you attuned to the Holy Spirit's promptings today? Where did you feel His inspiration? Ask Him for the graces necessary to follow His Will more purposefully tomorrow. Gratitude Practice Gratitude Where did you feel His loving gaze upon you today? What people or moments helped you see God in your life? Thank God for all these moments! Ask Him to help you recognize His blessings and providence tomorrow. Recommit Renew your Christian commitment Thank God for the gift of His Son Jesus and our call to be His disciples. Write down an intention for your day tomorrow, and ask Our Lord for His help in carrying it out. Pray a Hail Mary, Guardian Angel prayer, or another beloved prayer. Act of Contrition O my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended Thee, and I detest all my sins because of Thy just punishments, but most of all because they offend Thee, my God, Who art all good and deserving of all my love. I firmly resolve with the help of Thy grace to sin no more and to avoid the near occasions of sin. Amen.
