Saint Lucy of Syracuse

No one's body is polluted so as to endanger the soul if it has not pleased the mind. If you were to lift my hand to your idol and so make me offer against my will, I would still be guiltless in the sight of the true God, who judges according to the will and knows all things.

-- Saint Lucy of Syracuse

Saint Francis de Sales

God takes pleasure to see you take your little steps; and like a good father who holds his child by the hand, He will accommodate His steps to yours and will be content to go no faster than you.

-- Saint Francis de Sales

Just A Few Shopping Days Left Until Christmas

Well then, rest your tired feet and get Christmas gifts that people will love... and at the same time help support the Carmelite Monks of Wyoming and their monastery located right here in the U.S.A.!

Everyone who loves flavored coffee will especially love the Jingle Bell Java, which the monks describe as:

"Jingle Bell Java is arguably our best flavor, with hints of white chocolate, festive spices and bourbon, which you are sure to enjoy!"

New for this year, in a festive gold bag is their Christmas Blend 2012, which the monks say is:

"Our Christmas Blend 2012 builds upon the success of previous years with this new blend - only available for the 2012 Christmas season!

A selection of beans from all over the world, masterfully roasted and blended, with the end result being a coffee that is complex, fruity, and very smooth.

This special coffee will only be available this Christmas season - don't miss out!"

They also have a great assortment of Gift Packs available including chocolates (like chocolate covered coffee beans), teas, mugs, gift cards, and more as well as their great coffees.

Don't wait too long for the Jingle Bell Java and the Christmas Blend, they are time limited offers, and will be gone before you know it!

Saint John Chrysostom

God assents more when called on by ourselves than by others; and he often delays the giving, not from the wish that we should be utterly perplexed, nor to send us out with empty hands, but in order that he may become the author of greater good things to us.

-- Saint John Chrysostom
