I was shocked to learn that one of our faithful daily Mass-goers suddenly died yesterday. He himself was at Mass yesterday, with his wife. Understandably, she wasn't there today. You just don't know the day or the hour. How humbling this is. Please pray for the repose of his sou…

Before I start I just wanted to say that I always identified myself as a Christian but I never really had a relationship with God. I am 28 years old and I have finally giving my life to the Lord. Before my encounter with God I actually had an encounter with a demon at the age of…
