In today's Morning Offering, Fr. Kirby reflects on the importance of patience as a powerful act of penance and charity.

—Morning Offering with Fr. Kirby, August 30, 2024—

————————

Every morning, join Father Jeffrey Kirby as he begins the day with prayer and reflection. In a few short minutes, Father Kirby guides you in prayer, shares a brief reflection grounding your day in the Church’s rhythm of feast days and liturgy, and provides you with the encouragement necessary to go forward with peace and strength.

Let us do as the saints urge and begin our days in prayer together so as a community of believers we may join the Psalmist in saying, “In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait expectantly.” (Psalm 5:3-4)

Fr. Kirby, you are a blessing. Our Lord and Savior led me to find you during a difficult time when my husband was sick and many of my loved ones passed away. Your morning offering would prepare me each morning, and the day's message was timely for my setting. In addition, I've found many of your podcasts and studied alongside you and your parishioners. Although my heart is saddened you are leaving the Morning Offering, I know God will continue to provide.

Fr. Kirby, thank you for all of your holy, genuine and inspirational commentary on a plethora of subjects that pertain to our Catholic faith. It has been a daily experience to listen to your relevant thoughts on the readings, the saints, our fallen nature, and all of the Holy, loving, pious and virtuous acts, words and deeds that we, as Catholic Christians can share with a needy world.
May God bless you in all of your endeavors, may He give you strength, peace and the joy only our Lord can truly provide.
