Jim,<P>I think I've said 323,967 Hail Marys in the past 6 months.<P>Amen to you brother!!<P>I went to a HS called Don Bosco (Salesian order). Although I was an atheist in HS (I was rebelling, what the heck?), the virtues and values are engrained in my cranial cortex.<P>Glory Be!!!

Thanks for the heads up NSR. I haven't prayed to her yet but you can bet she is on the list now.<P>Here is one from Father Peter Rookey (a healing priest from the servite order) that I have said a multitude of times since d-day:<P>Lord Jesus, I come before you just as I am. I am sorry for my sins, I repent of my sins, please forgive me. In your name, I forgive all others for what they have done against me. I renounce satan, the evil spirits and all their works. I give you my entire self. Lord Jesus, now and forever, I invite you into my life Jesus, I accept you as my Lord, God and Savior. Heal me, change me, strengthen me in body, soul and spirit.<P>Come Lord Jesus, cover me with your precious blood, and fill me with your Holy Spirit, I love you Lord Jesus. I praise you Jesus. I thank you Jesus. I shall follow you everyday of my life. Amen<P>- now the forgiving all others for what they did to me was hard at first. After I said it enough times i really began to feel it. Things for me really started to change from there.<P>i figured since you were addressing Catholics, it would be ok to share this here.<P>cleo

Jim,<P>Did you get my email about <A HREF="http://www.catholickidsnet.com" TARGET=_blank>www.catholickidsnet.com</A> ?<BR>It is a very good program that we just got our eldestest in. Every month they focus on a new saint or group of saints and learn about it in ways that kids can understand. My 8 year old likes it a lot.<P>------------------<BR>Love and Prayers<BR>Nicole

Jim, thank you for the URL link to St. Catherine. I have given the Saints page address to the religion teacher at our son's school. There are some good things on the internet. By the way, I think you are the king of posters on this site! More (many by way of greeting newbies) than any others.<P>Bless you. The Pre Cana groups will be lucky to have you there.<BR>Bellevue
