The year of mercy

So often we find it hard to forgive, 

Yet the Lord our God has forgiven us so many times, and continues to do so when we genuinely ask. 

It makes us understand that if he can forgive our transgressions then who are we not to forgive others. Today let peace come into us and let us forgive those that trespass against us (however difficult it might be). 

EWTN App

I was looking for a good audio recording of the bible, or a bible app that I can load on my phone. There are many! But became especially fond of the EWTN App? There is a nice menu, and easy to navigate interface.

The Audio recording was well done.
Overall a Great App for your phone or tablet.

What great apps for audio recordings have you found?

Mass Intensions

I have never done a mass intention before, but I thought it was very appropriate in the current situation I find myself in. Mass intention can be done for many things which includes the living and the dead. 

Mass intentions can often be a better gift to an individual on his/her birthday than a card. There is no cost to it, however I have read that sometimes a stipend can be given. I don't know how valid that is. 

Yesterday was the first time my husband sent in Mass intentions, and the procedure was fairly simple, he called the church during office hours, and gave them all the information which consisted of the name of the person and the reason for the intention. 

Have you ever given mass intentions?
