What am I looking for in life?
What is the meaning of my life?
How can I be a better person?
What can I do about the loneliness I feel?
How can I come to know God’s love?
How can I know the right path God has in store for me?
I was once Catholic and I would like some help finding my
way back.
If you are asking these question, or questions like them, the
Catholic way of life awaits you. For centuries, people have

ministry to aid the
Community Help Center.
On Sunday, Sept. 11, mem-

Prayers Needed
Prayers are needed for Father George Carlin, who was
taken to the hospital Sunday, July 10. He is in rehab after
amputation of his leg last month due to an Infection. He
has requested prayers from his Harper friends and former
parishners. Father George is back in rehab after returning
to the hospital with pneumonia.
A Prayer
for Rain
Almighty God, we are in need of rain. We realize now,
looking up into the clear, blue sky above, what a marvel
even the least drop of rain really is. To think that so much
water can fall out of the sky, which now is empty and clear!
We place our trust in You. We are sure that You know our
needs. But You want us to ask You anyway, to show You •
that we know we are dependent on You. Look on our dry
hills and fields, dear God, and bless them with the living
blessing of soft rain. Then the land will rejoice, and the
rivers will sing your praises, and the hearts of men will be
made glad. Amen.
(Editor’s note: Correction—This prayer was vyritten in
the drought of the 1950s by Fr. W. Schneider of St. Mary’s
in Fredericksburg, not by Fr. Gitter as has been reported in
this paper before. The correction was submitted by Paul
Lang as reported In the Aug. 26, 2011 issue of
Today’s Catholic.)
