Feast of St. Anthony the Abbot
Greetings! We’ve had a little snow here in Saint Louis, it wasn’t really that much snow, but it certainly caused enough trouble. I tried not to go anywhere for most of the day and was glad of it. I heard people spent hours trying to get to work and school. I think it was mostly bad timing, though. Today the weather is fabulous. The temperatures are very mild and it really makes you want to get outside, knowing that days like this will probably be few over the next couple of months.
February will soon be here, and we will begin the Lenten season on Ash Wednesday, the 22nd. We have about a month to determine how we can best use our Lenten time of preparation. I really want to study the faith more this Lent. I’m not exactly sure how I’m going to accomplish it, but that will definitely be one of my Lenten practices this year. Have you begun to think of how you will use your Lent this year? I’d love to hear your ideas.
Does listening to Catholic radio change you? Does it help you pray? Does it inspire you? Does it teach you? I hear many different comments about Catholic radio from people and I was thinking about how it affects me as I listen. I really feel that depending on my day, or the state I’m in, it changes for me. Sometimes, there is something that I hear that seems was meant just for me, at other times I just need the peace and calm that the rosary can bring. Quite often, it is really helping me to strengthen my ability to communicate the profound truths of the faith. May God bless everyone who shares their knowledge and love with us on Catholic radio!
Do you need a new bumper sticker? Please give us a call or email and we will send one to you. Your car just might be the next best tool for evangelization!
Would it be possible for you to assist Covenant Network and your Catholic radio station? We need your support. Every gift is important, and we really need you. This apostolate operates on the generosity of some very faith- filled people and your donation helps us share this work with many. We must all make an effort to know our faith today in order that we can share it with others. I don’t think there is an easier way than Catholic radio to learn your faith in the world today. God bless you!
Sincerely in Christ,
Teresa M. Holman
