Many people think that miracles don’t happen anymore. But, if you focus on the positive, not the negative, focus on your blessings instead of your hardships, miracles will seem common.

Born in Swabia, Germany, he studied at Reichenau under the Benedictines and at Wurzburg before serving as a teacher. He soon entered the Benedictines at Einsiedeln and was appointed head of the monastery school, receiving ordination in 971. He then set out with a group of monks to preach among the Magyars of Hungary, but the following year was named bishop of Regensburg. He brought the clergy of the diocese into his reforms, restored monasteries, promoted education, preached enthusiastically, and was renowned for his charity and aid to the poor. He also served as tutor to Emperor Henry II (r. 1014-1024) while he was still king. Wolfgang died at Puppingen near Linz, Austria. He was canonized in 1052 by Pope St. Leo IX Learn more: www.catholic.org Bring in the Year of Mercy~ Tragedy for Human Life Let’s welcome in the Year of Mercy, which starts WASHINGTON—Cardinal Seán O’Malley officially on December 8, with some special work of of Boston, chairman mercy for our community. of the Committee on Throughout November the whole parish is asked to Pro-Life Activities of bring in canned goods for the Plain City Food Pantry the U.S.
