My brother Marc just passed the Series 7 exam and is now a licensed broker. He’s been studying hard for the last few months and he’s come a long way. He beat the odds the other week by passing the Greenlight exam (only 1/3 of past participants have passed) in order to take the Series 7. Needless to say, I’m very happy for him.
Say a prayer for Marc as he has one more exam this coming week to get his Series 63 license.
…begins today….
God, our Father, you have granted to your church the gift of Gianna Beretta Molla. In her youth she loveingly sought you and drew other people to you, involving them, through apostolic witness and Catholic Action, in the care of the sick and aged, to help and comfort them. We thank you for the gift of this young woman, so deeply committed to you.
Through her example, grant us the grace to consecrate our life to your service, for the joy of our brothers and sisters. May we become generous Christians at the service of our brothers and sisters, especially those with whom you design to share your Cross. We beg you to grant to our families the serene and Christian presence of mothers committed to transform them into cenacles of faith and love, rich with generous activity and sanctifying service.
Grant us the grace we seek… and the joy to find an inspiration in Saint Gianna who, as model spouse and mother, after the example of Christ, gave up her life for the life of others.
We offer this Novena for the sanctity of all life and for the intentions of all those who are praying with us.
Glory Be…
Hail Mary…
