OUR LADY ACADEMY MORNING ANNOUNCEMENTS

Monday, October 21 2024 

Good Morning OLA!  Today is Monday, October 21 2024.  

Morning Offering and Special Intentions:

Please stand for our morning prayer as we remember that we are in the presence of God.   

Proverbs 10:19
When words are many, sin is not absent, but he who holds his tongue is wise.

Thoughts on Today's Verse.... 
With YouTube®, Instagram®, Snapchat®, Facebook® and the ever-growing new and emerging social media, we can fill our days with noise, information, and entertaining distractions.  Unfortunately, all too often, we say things that are harmful, hurtful, incendiary, or foolish.  God's wisdom reminds us to learn to hold our tongue and let silence rule over more of our time rather than generate the noise of our words that clutter our world. 


Holy God, please give us wisdom so that we can keep our mouths shut more often, the noise around us turned down, and our ears attentive to your guidance and the needs of others around us.  Purify our hearts and cleanse our speech so that our words will be helpful to others and bring glory to you.  In Jesus' name, we pray….

Our Father, Who art in heaven Hallowed be Thy Name; Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.  Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil. Amen.

 

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.


Please remain standing for the Pledge:

I pledge Allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation, under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

Celebrating their birthday today is Addyson Podlin.  Happy Birthday Addyson!
