The following are the prayer intentions for the new quarter.  Please share them with your courts.  The intentions can be remembered in many ways such as in the opening or closing prayers of your meetings, at corporate communions, by your prayer ministry, and hopefully by each individual member in her daily prayers.  Jesus tells us in Matthew 21:22, "Whatever you ask for in prayer with faith, you will receive.

Let us place our trust in Him as we lift up the following intentions:

• For our CDA courts, that the new year will bring growth in membership and that we will continue to be united in our efforts of love and charity.
• That this Christmas the Lord’s love, joy, and peace will reign in all hearts.
• For all who are ill and suffering, may they find hope through faith in our Lord, Jesus Christ.
• For the Holy Father and His intentions.

"The members of the Texas State Court love Christ and His Church and are dedicated to leading others to Christ and to His service through The Catholic Daughters of the Americas."

With the help of our Patroness Mother Mary, we strive to uphold our Motto of "Unity and Charity". Please feel free to visit our site often and do not hesitate to contact us.
