Into The Breach - an online video series for Catholic men (https://www.kofc.org/en/campaigns/into-the-breach.html )
St. Theresa Parish Knights of Columbus invites all men in the parish to a series of on-line (zoom) discussions beginning in September,  based on twelve short videos concerning three pressing questions: What does it mean to be a Catholic Man? How does a Catholic man love? Why is fatherhood, fully understood, so crucial for every man?  For many of us, home-isolation provides an opportunity to benefit from these videos by growing in the understanding of our faith and fulfilling our role as Catholic men in the family, the Church and society, and to devise a personal plan of spiritual battle.  Contact Gord Doonan at g.doonan@zoho.com

Prayer to make Spiritual Communion:

People who cannot communicate now make spiritual communion:

At your feet, O my Jesus I bow down and offer you the repentance of my contrite heart, which abysses itself into its nothingness and Your holy presence. I adore you in the Sacrament of Your love, the ineffable Eucharist. I wish to receive you in the poor home that my heart offers you. In anticipation of the happiness of sacramental communion, I want to possess you in spirit. Come to me, oh my Jesus, that I may come to you. May Your love inflame my whole being, for life and death. I believe in you, I hope in you, I love you. So be it. Amen
