The Angelus
The Angel of the Lord declared to Mary:
And she conceived of the Holy Spirit.
Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee; blessed art thou among women and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus. Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners, now and at the hour of
our death. Amen.
Behold the handmaid of the Lord: Be it done unto me according to Thy word.
Hail Mary . . .
And the Word was made Flesh: And dwelt among us.
Hail Mary . . .
Pray for us, O Holy Mother of God, that we may be made worthy of the promises of Christ.
Let us pray:
Pour forth, we beseech Thee, O Lord, Thy grace into our hearts; that we, to whom the incarnation of Christ, Thy Son, was made known by the message of an angel, may by His Passion and Cross be brought to the glory of His Resurrection, through the same Christ Our Lord.
Amen.

Themes and Time
I’m trying to find the “perfect theme” for this website from WordPress. Searching and browsing through the themes on WordPress.com is…well is a great way to waste time! It can become habitual.
I just want a simple, clean, semi-colorful, thin theme! Any suggestions, appreciated.

In the Hands of God
In the Hands of God
by Newsboys
We have raised our hopes and our cities high
we have followed fragile dreams
but only one could take the measure of our goals
and we?ve stumbled over the trials of life
and we?ve wrestled the unseen
and only one can calm the storm inside our souls
in the hands of God we will fall
rest for the restless and the weary, hope for the sinner
in the hands of God we stand tall
hands that are mighty to deliver givin us freedom
when our strength gave way to the weight of guilt
til we strain for every breath
only one could lift our shame and make us well
and when all is finished and we face the fearsome power of death
only one has overcome the gates of hell
in the hands of God we will fall
rest for the restless and the weary, hope for the sinner
in the hands of God we stand tall
hands that are mighty to deliver givin us freedom
you’re amazing, you’re amazing, you are
you’re amazing, you’re amazing, you are
and we praise you, Lord for what your hands have done
you’re amazing, you’re amazing, you are
in the hands of God we will fall
rest for the restless and the weary, hope for the sinner
in the hands of God we stand tall
hands that are mighty to deliver givin us freedom
you’re amazing, you’re amazing, you are
you’re amazing, you’re amazing, you are
and we praise you, Lord for what your hands have done
you’re amazing, you’re amazing, you are
