Blessed Ivan Merz and the Elections


"I must start leading a new life, regenerate from the spirit of a new knowledge of Catholicism. May God help me, because there is nothing a man can do single-handed."

Tomorrow, May 10, 2010, is the Feast of Blessed Ivan Merz. As we hold our National and Local Elections on the day of his feast, let us pray together for clean and honest elections,using Blessed Ivan's Words:

“Oh God, the best would be if I was already with You, so, please, burn all the parasites of sin that crept into my soul with the flame of your Mercy, so that I can appear before You good and holy; or at least, to be inspired, while leaving, with a holy joy and an extraordinary will”


HAPPY FEAST OF BLESSED IVAN MERZ!
