This Tuesday we will begin the beautiful month of October in which we celebrate many great Saints of the Church like - Saint Therese of Lisieux, the Holy Guardian Angels, Saint Francis of Assisi, Saint Teresa of Avila, Saint Luke, Pope Saint John Paul the Great, Saint Sister Faustina Kowalska, Saints Simon and Jude… just to name a few. 

In October the Church takes special time to direct our attention to the sanctity and respect for human life from conception until natural death. Children are precious gifts from God who are to be born into loving families with fathers and mothers who are committed to each other in genuine and lifelong marital relationships. The highest honor and privilege of being a woman is the joy of motherhood. 

October is also the month of the Holy Rosary, making it a providential time to pray to our Blessed Mother, Patroness of the Unborn, for an end to abortion and other offenses and sins against human life and dignity. As we say the Rosary daily, let us pray for pregnant mothers, let us pray for fathers, and let us pray that conceived babies may be born and live in a world of genuine love and care. 

God bless 
Fr. Gregg
