Dear CMCS Men and Friends,  Ww want to inform you that once again we’ll be pausing our writing for the CMCSMEN Blog and Catholic Man Moment during the month of July. This break serves as a perfect opportunity to rest, reflect, and prepare for our return.  Throughout July, we will share some cherished reflections from the past year, as well as selections from our archives. Whether they’re a first-time read for you or worth revisiting, we hope they inspire and uplift you.  We’ll resume new reflections in August. Thank you for being a part of our community, and may your summer bring you moments to slow down and connect with God.

Vision: To Foster Catholic Men's Spirituality in Chicago Southland
A Prayer For Employment
(from the archives)
Most Reverend Joseph N Perry

Pray this each day, whether or not you are employed. It will impact your perspective as a Catholic man. 

O God, Father of us all, You bestow on us gifts and talents to develop and use in accord with your Will and to advance your kingdom on earth. 

Grant to me, through the intercession of Saint Joseph, the man chosen by God to care for you in your childhood and youth, employment and work that I may with dignity provide for my family.

Grant me the opportunities to use my energy and abilities for the good of those who depend upon me for care and support.  You placed me in charge of this family.  I beseech your assistance in helping me provide for them as you would have me do.

You are our God and head of this family. 


Amen



Bishop Joseph N Perry

“All of man’s misfortune comes from one thing, which is not knowing how to sit quietly in a room.”
