In Humble Gratitude: Update from the Karrick Family
The Karrick Family would like to express our deepest thanks for the love and support Saint Olaf has shown us through this difficult time with our daughter Emily and her health struggles.
After many misdiagnoses, we have discovered she has a chronic autoimmune disease in which the bile ducts in her liver are slowly destroyed. All of this has progressed to complete cirrhosis of her liver. Her medical team is currently working to stabilize Emily by attempting to slow down the progression of the disease in hopes she might qualify for a liver transplant in the near future.
Our family, especially Emily, are humbled and grateful for the prayers and support. Nothing can happen to me that God doesn’t want. And all that He wants, no matter how bad it may appear to us, is really for the best.” ~ St. Thomas More
Our Condolences
We would like to express our sympathy and prayers to Joanne Dean and her family on the death of her sister, Benedictine Sister Annette (Margaret Mary) Brophy.
May her soul, and the souls of all the faithfully departed, through the mercy of God...Rest in Peace.

Our Mission
PRAYER TO MAKE A “SPIRITUAL COMMUNION”
Saint Teresa of Avila wrote: “When you cannot receive Communion and cannot attend Mass, you can make a spiritual communion, which is a most beneficial practice; by it the love of God will be greatly impressed on you.”
My Jesus,
I believe that you are present
in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love you above all things,
and I desire to receive you into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment
receive you sacramentally,
please come spiritually into my heart.
I embrace you now
as if you were already there
and I unite myself wholly to you.
Never permit me
to be separated from you.
Amen
