Saint Catherine of Bologna
Sometimes the devil inspires souls with an inordinate zeal for a certain virtue or some special pious exercise, so that they will be motivated by their passion to practice it more and more. This temptation is more to pride rather than virtue....Sometimes, on the other hand, the devil coaches souls to do less than they can really do. This temptation is more to false humility...In both cases, the devil's goal is to make the soul discouraged when the virtue is found to be unattainable; and to be wearied and disgusted if his efforts are below his abilities. The soul ends up neglecting everything. It is as necessary to overcome the one snare as the other.
-- Saint Catherine of Bologna, from On the Seven Spiritual Weapons

| Mom Knows Best Gift Set |
May means Mother's Day (on Sunday, May 12), and it 's time to think of some gifts for dear old mom.
So, once again, the Carmelite Monks of Wyoming have some Mystic Monk Coffee gift ideas for your mom for this Mother's Day.
First, they have the Mom Knows Best (and she always does, at least mine did) gift set. It has a $25 dollar gift card, along with nine sample packages of the monk's favorite coffees, two bag clips and a stainless coffee scoop. Once mom has sampled her favorite coffee, she can order more with the $25 gift card. You can order it here.
At Mystic Monk Coffee, they have a selection of other Mother's Day Gifts (both wrapped and unwrapped), which you can see and order here.
So let's tell mom she is the best by giving her a gift of the best coffee and tea available online from Mystic Monk Coffee.
And remember, your purchase of Mystic Monk Coffee helps to support the Carmelite Monks of Wyoming!

Saint Quote: Blessed Pope John Paul II
If the agony on the Cross had not happened, the truth that God is Love would have been unfounded. Yes! God is Love and precisely for this he gave his Son, to reveal himself completely as Love. Christ is the One who “loved…to the end.” (John 13.1) “To the end” means to the last breath.
-- Blessed Pope John Paul II from "Crossing The Threshold of Hope"
