Intro to the day:  “Without faith, our children will never be rich; with faith, they will never be poor.”

Today is Friday of the First Week of Ordinary Time. We are praying for the faculty, staff, and families of Lehman Catholic High School in the Archdiocese of Cincinnati, OH.

In the Gospel, Jesus forgives and heals a paralyzed man.

Gospel: Mark 2:1-12

Saint of the Day: Blessed Giuseppe Antonio Tovini

Marian prayer for the day: Abandonment to Mary - St. Bonaventure

Virgin full of goodness, Mother of Mercy, I entrust to you my body and soul, my thoughts, my actions, my life and my death. O my Queen, help me, and deliver me from all the snares of the devil. Obtain for me the grace of loving my Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, with a true and perfect love, and after him, O Mary, to love you with all my heart and above all things.

Amen.
