Blessing for Catechetical Leaders Good and gracious God, your truth is revealed in your word, and your love is shown forth in your mighty acts as you care for your people, guiding them with your providential care. Bless those who share the story of our faith. May their teaching be filled with the power of your Spirit. May their lives be an example of love poured out in service to our brothers and sisters. May the students they teach be receptive to the knowledge they impart and the faith that is a gift from you. Make us all witnesses to the command of your Son to teach all nations until he comes again. Amen. Calendar9-19: First Rel. Ed.

As a young Christian woman, St. Monica was married to a pagan. Early in their marriage, he was bitter and critical. After nearly 20 years, Monica's holy example led to his conversion to Christianity. In the meantime, Augustine was a teenager beginning to live a wild life of self-indulgent excess. This lifestyle would continue into his adulthood. Like with her husband, Monica prayed and fasted for the conversion of her son. Augustine met another future saint, the bishop Ambrose of Milan, who greatly influenced his perspective on life. Augustine was baptized a Christian! Augustine later became a bishop and one of the most influential thinkers in Christian history. How's that for the power of patience and intercessory prayer? A closed mouth gathers no foot. Calendar9-5: Confirmation student/parent/sponsor
