I am humbly asking for prayer for my upcoming colonoscopy. Please pray that the procedure will go flawlessly.

I want to offer a prayer of thanksgiving and praise for our parish's recent Men's Emmaus Retreat at St. Leo Abbey in St. Leo, Florida. God blessed our retreat team as we traveled with 25 men to encounter Jesus on the Road to Emmaus. I would also like to ask for prayers for my wife Celeste and the women's retreat team as they prepare a Women's Emmaus Retreat at the Franciscan Center in Tampa this March.
