Sisters in Jesus the Lord

A truly wise and blessed friend! Monsignor William Blacet, for many years was pastor at Our Lady of Good Counsel in Kansas City, MO, died last week. He was our community's first confessor in our early years in MO. We now pray asking him to continue to guide us in wisdom, in our mission, and in total love for the Lord.

Our Lady of Lourdes Catholic Church, Raytown, MO, had its annual Corpus Christi procession on Sunday, June 14th. We had the privilege to help organize and to participate.

The Marian Fathers have suggested that everyone consider putting a picture of the Divine Mercy, as seen below, to seal the doorposts of their homes as signs of ...trusting in God’s loving protection. The Israelites in Egypt were told by God through Moses to seal the doors of their homes with the blood of a lamb that they were to sacrifice. Jesus, Lamb of God, through this image that You gave to Saint Faustina, protect our families and homes from all dangers, especially from covid-19. Jesus, we trust in You! Don’t have a copy of the Divine Mercy image? Download your free copy here: https://www.thedivinemercy.org/DivineMercyImage We sealed our convent doorpost two years ago with this Divine Mercy image and we pray daily the Divine Mercy Chaplet! Please share your sealed doorposts with us in the comment section below!
