One Minute Reflection – 4 November – The Memorial of St Charles Borromeo (1538-1584)
Of you my heart speaks; you my glance seeks; your presence, O Lord, I seek.….Psalm 27:8
REFLECTION – “We must meditate before, during and after everything we do. The prophet says: “I will pray and then I will understand.” This is the way we can easily overcome the countless difficulties we have to face day after day, which, after all, are part of our work. In meditation we find the strength to bring Christ to birth in ourselves and in other men.”…St Charles Borromeo
PRAYER – Almighty God, help me to seek You and speak with You always. Let me strive to avoid outer distractions and concentrate on Your message and Your will. Teach me to seek only You and to bring Your Son to all I meet. St Charles Borromeo, pray for us, amen.

Passionate Catholic.
Being a Catholic is a way of life - a love affair "Religion must be like the air we breathe..."- St John Bosco
Prayer is what the world needs combined with the example of our lives which testify to the Light of Christ.
This site, which is now using the Traditional Calendar, will mainly concentrate on Daily Prayers, Novenas and the Memorials and Feast Days of our friends in Heaven, the Saints who went before us and the great blessings the Church provides in our Catholic Monthly Devotions.
This Site is placed under the Patronage of my many favourite Saints and especially, St Paul.
"For the Saints are sent to us by God
as so many sermons.
We do not use them, it is they who move us
and lead us, to where we had not expected to go.”
Charles Cardinal Journet (1891-1975)
This site adheres to the Catholic Church and all her teachings.
