Czy będę miał więcej czasu? Czy ustąpią w jednej chwili wszelkie choroby i problemy? Zapewne, nie! Ale otworzą się moje oczy i uszy, otworzy się moje serce i zobaczę, że nie jestem ślepo poddany okolicznościom życia, nie jestem niewolnikiem popędów ciała i wydarzeń wokół mnie. Zdam sobie sprawę, że Bóg ofiarował mi już wystarczającą ilość łaski i możliwości, bym swe życie przeżywał pracując nad sobą, nad swoimi myślami i uczuciami; bym pielęgnując miłość i zdrowe relacje z braćmi i siostrami stawał się człowiekiem świadomym swojej wartości, a ciesząc się z każdego spełnionego postanowienia, widział, że nie jest to moje własne zwycięstwo, ale radował się, że jestem, tak jak kobieta kananejska i jej córka, kochany przez Boga i on chce kształtować moje życie. UWAGA!! W czasie wakacji, zapraszamy na Mszę św. od poniedziałku do soboty o godz. 8:00 rano.
