Teardrops

Teardrops is a ministry dedicated to praying for loved ones who have wandered away from the Catholic Church.

Just as we have cried for our loved ones, many tears were shed by St. Monica for her son Augustine and her husband, Patricius. Just as those tears helped convert Patricius and bring Augustine back to the Church, so we believe that our prayerful “teardrops” will help our loved ones return as well.

St. Monica met Ambrose, the local bishop who would later be canonized a saint. Ambrose became a spiritual guide to her and promised, “Surely the son of so many tears will not perish.” St. Ambrose also told Monica to “Speak less to Augustine about God and more to God about Augustine.”
 

Teardrops - A St. Monica Prayer Ministry at St. Denis 

A prayer ministry is an essential aspect to a church and when many people come together to pray for the same thing, the power of prayer makes a significant impact on the community. We invite you to join us for our newest St. Monica Ministry where we will pray by name for our loved ones who have fallen away from their Catholic faith.

Join us on March 16th, 2022 at 6:00 pm for a special Holy Hour dedicated to our loved ones who have left the Catholic Church for whatever reason.
