Rev. Mark Mlay was born on September 9, 1956 on the slopes of Mt. Kilimanjaro in Tanzania - East Africa. Born to parents Michael and Agnes Mlay. He is a middle child of twelve surviving siblings and three who died in childhood. Fr. Mark’s parents died of old age – his dad at 104 in 1997 and his mom at 84 in 2010. Thanks to their love and wonderful up-bringing he became a priest. Three of his sisters are nuns belonging to three of different orders – one to Our Lady of Mt. Kilimanjaro, another to Precious Blood Sisters and another to Benedictine Sisters.

We are happy to be having Fr. Mark join us in August. Father Mark was ordained June 27, 1984 and is a Religious Priest from the Apostolic Life Community of Priests in the Opus Spiritus Sancti, ALCP. Father comes to us from St. Peter Church in Jupiter. We all look forward to Fathers arrival here at St. Clare.

Prayer to Avert HurricanesThe Most Reverend Gerald M. Bishop is asking all parishes and schools in the diocese to join him a united prayer effort in thanksgiving for the past several calm hurricane seasons and for our protection from devastating storms in the 2015 season. Below is a prayer to avert storms that you and your families can use throughout the hurricane season.

Thank you for your support of our prayer effort to ask God to keep us safe from hurricanes in this upcoming season.

Suggested Prayer For Protection From Storms

God our Father, Creator of the Universe and Lord over all creation,

we humbly stand before you as your children in thanksgiving for

your loving care and protection. We ask that you keep us safe from

all hurricanes which may threaten us in the coming seasons. Protect

us from all fear and anxiety of storms and give us an ardent trust and hope

in Your love and mercy. You alone have the power to command the sea, the

wind and the rain. You alone bring peace, calm, and safety. Father, we thank you in

advance, for you are our only Refuge. We ask this through Christ, Your Son, Who

lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, forever and ever. Amen. Mary,

Queen of the Apostles, and Patroness of our Diocese, pray for us.
