Prayer for Hurricane Season

O God, Master of this passing world,
hear the humble voices of your children.
The sea of Galilee obeyed your order and
returned to its former quietude; you are
still the Master of land and sea. We live
in the shadow of danger over which we
have no control: the Gulf, like a provoked and angry giant,
can awake from its seeming lethargy, invade our land and
spread chaos and disaster. During this hurricane season, we
turn to you, O loving Father. Spare us from past tragedies
whose memories are still so vivid and whose wounds seem
to refuse to heal with the passing of time. O Virgin, Star of
the Sea, our beloved Mother, we ask you to plead with your
Son in our behalf, so that spared from the calamities common
to this area and animated with a true spirit of gratitude,
we will walk in the footsteps of Your Divine Son to reach
the Heavenly Jerusalem where a storm-less eternity awaits
us. Amen .

Traveling During the Summer?

It can be a challenge for Catholics to find Masses in unfamiliar areas when traveling. There are several resources available to help Catholics find a home away from home anywhere in the world. Also many churches have their own websites. For more information log on to: http://www.masstimes.org.
