The Latin phrase written in their halos, “SS Mater Boni Consilii, Ora Pro Nobis Jesum Filium Tuum” means “Most Blessed Mother of Good Counsel, Pray for Us to Your Son Jesus” in English.
Our blessed mother prays for us. She is our intercessor, our mediator, who pleads on our behalf to her son…. Don’t be afraid to go to her with your needs and your heart’s desire. Pray to her. Ask her for help in anything you may want or need. She will gladly intercede for you.
Remember the wedding feast at Cana? It was the blessed Mother who saw the need and went to Jesus for help when there was no more wine. And even though Jesus told her it was not His time, she instructed the servants to do whatever He told them to do. Jesus is a good obedient son. He will not refuse His mother of what she asks.
“Remember, O most loving Virgin Mary, that never was it know that anyone who fled to your protection, implored your help, or sought your intercession, was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence we fly unto you, O virgin of virgins, our mother. To you we come, before you we stand, sinful and sorrowful. O Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not our petitions, but in your mercy hear and answer us. Amen.”

"The very rote-ness of his interaction in the sacrament stirred me to tears. When I had confessed, he didn’t give me counsel or talk to me. This was a tired old human priest. He gave me my penance, absolved me, and asked me to pray for him as he had asked thousand of other penitents to do. Nothing different, nothing unique. I burst into tears." ... See MoreSee Less

Born on September 27, 1696, in Marianella, near Naples, Italy, St. Alphonsus was the eldest of seven children. He was baptized two days after his birth with the name Alphonsus Mary Anthony John Cosmas Damian Michael Gaspard de’ Liguori.
He was a child prodigy who excelled in everything he did. He learned to ride and fence at an early age, and also had a keen interest in music and art. He composed his first musical piece at the age of nine and painted several portraits of his family members. He also had a great love for learning and studied languages, literature, philosophy, and theology.
He entered the University of Naples at the age of 12 and graduated with doctorates in civil and canon law at the age of 16. He then began to practice law at the Neapolitan courts under the guidance of his father, who wanted him to have a successful career and marry into a wealthy family.
Our St. Paul logo was designed by fellow parishioner Lori Brechtel, a graphic designer. Lori put great thought and detail into its design. She began by seeking out a symbol of our church that would be readily identifiable to all of our members - the circular, quartered round window on our building.
The yellow, starbust portion represents the light of Christ that blinded Paul, and that light which we show to each other among our congregation, and others. it is "bursting" from the confines of our own church and radiating into the world.
