Honoring Drs. Joe and Rose Mattioli

The impact of Drs. Joe and Rose Mattioli’s Pocono Raceway has gone far beyond the world of auto racing to become an economic and social center of Pennsylvania’s Pocono Mountains region.

The Mattioli family’s philanthropic efforts in education and health care continue to improve the lives of everyone they touch. “Doc” and Rose have never stopped re-investing in the racetrack, nor have they ever stopped improving the lives of the people around them.

A Mother’s Day Prayer

2010-05-08T20:37:00.000-07:00

Mary, on this day when we honor all mothers, we turn to you. We thank the Lord whom you serve for the great gift of motherhood. Never has it been known that anyone who sought your intercession was left unaided by grace. Dear Mother, thank you for your “Yes” to the invitation of the angel which brought heaven to earth and changed human history. You opened yourself to God’s word and the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us.

Dear mother, intercede for all of our mothers. Ask your Divine Son to give them the grace of surrendered love so that they could join with you in giving their own “Fiat.” May they find daily strength to say yes to the call to the sacrificial love- the very heart of the vocation of motherhood. May their love and witness be a source of great inspiration for all of us called to follow your Son.

On this Mothers day, Mother of the Word Incarnate, pray for us who have recourse to you…

In the Name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

With the love & respect of your sisters of

Urgent Pro-Life Action Needed

The U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops issued the attached bulletin
announcement about the upcoming vote on the healthcare bill. Because of
the short time frame involved, it is unlikely that it will make it into
many parish bulletins and a vote is expected in the next week. There is
a great deal of misinformation being publicized to support the Senate
version of the healthcare bill (including an endorsement by the misnamed
Catholic Health Association) . The bottom line is that the bishops'
spokesman has stated that the Senate version of this bill "fails our
moral criteria". Please pass this bulletin insert along to as many
people as possible and call your representative as soon as possible.

Yours in friendship, Unity and Christian charity,

O God,

by whose providence the blessed Patrick
was chosen to be the apostle of the Irish;
that thus the people of Hibernia,
who had gone astray in darkness
and in the errors of the Gentiles,
might be made children of the Most High
by the laver of regeneration:
Grant, we beseech thee,
that by his intercession,
we may hasten without delay
to the paths of justice.
Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
From the Breviary of Armagh, cited in The Liturgical Year: Vol. 5

A wonderful Saint Patrick’s Day to all our brother & sister Hibernians.

Pray today for Peace and Justice in Ireland and through out the world. May all the men & women who exhibit the best examples of St Patrick’s character lead the parades and celebrations May God Bless the Irish, the Hibernians and the Roman Catholic Church especially in this year of the priest.

Ladies Ancient Order of Hibernians Saint Brigid Div 1 Monroe County, PA.
