So this is the series everyone has been super excited about? How did I miss all the buzz about it?
Anyway, prayers for you and yours and for Earl to keep truckin’ right on out to sea!
*****************************
O God, Master of this passing world, hear the humble voices of your children. The Sea of Galilee obeyed your order and returned to its former quietude. You are still the Master of land and sea. We live in the shadow of a danger over which we have no control: the Gulf, like a provoked and angry giant, can awake from its seeming lethargy, overstep its conventional boundaries, invade our land and spread chaos and disaster.
During this hurricane season we turn to you, O Loving Father. Spare us from past tragedies whose memories are still so vivid and whose wounds seem to refuse to heal with the passing of time. O Virgin, Star of the Sea, Our Beloved Mother, we ask you to plead with your Son in our behalf, so that spared from the calamities common to this area and animated with a spirit of gratitude, we will walk in the footsteps of your Divine Son to reach heavenly Jerusalem where a stormless eternity awaits us. Amen.

Now that’s what I call hurricane preparedness!!!
Do you tend to get hit pretty bad out there on Long Island? We’re far enough inland that all we get is a lot of wind and rain.
Now that’s my kind of hurricane preparedness. The only other thing I’d include are my rosary beads, since after praying the rosary, I could really just relax and enjoy the wine, the books, and the candlelight. But,then, yours are probably right there in your pocket, always at the ready. Praying that all my family and friends on L.I. will be safe from harm.
