2017 Guest Speakers – Thank You Miriam Horrocks & Paul Isenberg
The Six Three Group would like to extend our gratitude to Miriam Horrocks and Paul Isenberg (“Ice” LOL) for sharing their powerful message of love with us on our 2017 Six Three Group Retreat! It is by your example we are brought closer to the calling of our Lord. God bless both of you, your beautiful family and may souls of Michael and Nichole rest in peace. We will keep you all in our prayers.
——————————–
On 9/11 our whole world was traumatized by sin and death. When Michael Horrocks’ plane crashed into the second tower, his wife Miriam and her two small children suffered in shock. At the same time Paul and his two children cared for his wife who was dying of cancer. We will listen as Miriam and Paul witness how their faith in Jesus Christ offered them the miracle of hope and healing. Just as Jesus offered hope and healing by raising his friend Lazarus from the tomb of death, Miriam and Paul experienced the grace of God to help them live and love again.

A Reminder to Keep Christ In Christmas
You may recall a couple years ago when a fellow Six Three Man, Joe McAvoy , wrote and recorded a spiritually inspired Christmas tune to remind us to keep Christ in Christmas. Joe circulated his work around the internet to help raise money for the families of victims involved in the Sandy Hook shooting in New England.
We thought it would be nice to repost Joe’s song to remind us again of the true meaning of Christmas.
Please enjoy the music and consider doing something special for a neighbor in need this season. Then share this link on facebook. |

How to Pray – Fr. Michael Shea, C.M.
If you find it difficult to pray, you might simply imagine God speaking to you. His words might sound something like this:
You don’t have to be clever to please me; all you have to do is want to love me. Just speak to me as you would to anyone of whom you are very fond.
Are there people you want to pray for? Tell me their names, and ask as much as you like. Trust me to do what I know best.
Is there anything you want for your soul? Tell me if you feel guilty about anything. I will forgive you, but you have to accept my forgiveness.
Tell me about your self–centeredness, and your laziness. I love you in spite of your faults. Do not hesitate to ask me for blessings for mind and body. I can give everything you need for a happier, holier life.
Are you afraid of anything? Trust yourself to me. I am here. I see everything. I will never leave you.
Have you any joys to share with me? What has happened recently to cheer and comfort you?
Are temptations bearing heavily upon you? Yielding to them always disturbs the peace of your soul. Ask me, and I will help you to overcome them.
Well, go along now. Come back to me soon. Tomorrow I shall have more blessings for you.
This was presented by Fr. Michael Shea, C.M. the Associate Director of The Central Association of the Miraculous Medal during our 2014 retreat. Fr. invites everyone to visit the Miraculous Medal Shrine at 500 E. Chelton Avenue in Philadelphia and to visit the association’s website to learn more about the Miraculous Medal.
