June: Faithfulness  
Faithfulness is the concept of unfailingly remaining loyal to someone or something, and putting that loyalty into consistent practice regardless of extenuating circumstances.

Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer.
-Romans 12:12

 

St. Raymond of Penafort, whose feast we celebrate on January 7, was a Spanish Dominican friar in the 13th century, who compiled the Decretals of Gregory IX, a collection of canon laws that remained a major part of Church law until the 20th century. He is the Patron Saint of Canonists.


 

St. Agnes, although you were only a child, you believed that Jesus was always with you; help us to remember that he is always with us, and to remain true to his presence.

St. Agnes, you refused to give up your faith; help us to be proud of our faith, to love it, to be strong in it, and to give witness to it daily.

St. Agnes, patron saint of children, watch over the children of the world; keep them safe from harm; be with them in their hour of need; and always pray for them. 

-Amen
