In our world so broken by abuses of technology and which so often ignores or attacks human dignity, please intercede for us to God the Father so we may see the human dignity of everyone we encounter and ask for guidance from the Lord whenever we may be tempted to violate that dignity in our online interactions. Blessed Carlo Acutis, pray that we may treat our ever-evolving connections with developing technology as an opportunity to see the grace of God at work, even in the complexities of our modern world.

So I never miss a base, God, please guide my feet, bring me home safely, so my job is complete. When I help younger players, let me always give praise, so they’ll see You in me, in all my ways. God please guide our coach, to be fair and smart, to teach us to be good, let it come from his heart. Let me take a loss, just as well as a win, to do any less is surely a sin. As long as I play, let me make my parents proud, as proud as I am, when they yell MY name out loud. However my games end, let me always have fun and if Heaven has All Stars, I want to be one. When my games here are over and my seasons are done, let me play on Your team, God, Just like your Son. ***** RECIPES FROM RITA: Chicken Tinga with Lime Crema and Blistered tortillas Ingredients:1 medium yellow or white onion, chopped – 1 good cup2 cloves garlic, minced, or more to taste1/3 cup chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (about 3 peppers)1 teaspoon dried oregano3/4 teaspoon ground cumin, or more to taste3/4 cup fire roasted tomatoes, crushed, or more to taste1/4 to 1/2 cup chicken brothSalt to tasteShredded cooked chicken – about 4 cups8 six inch tortillas, flour or corn Filling InstructionsFilm a skillet with olive oil over medium heat.Add onion and cook until fairly translucent.Stir in garlic and cook a minute or so.Stir in chipotles in adobo. Start with half of the amount, and then after cooking, add more if you like since these are pretty hot.Add oregano, cumin, tomatoes and broth. Start with 1/4 cup broth and add more at the end if mixture is too thick. Bring to a boil, then to a simmer and cook about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.Pour mixture into blender. Careful now, mixture is hot and tends to spatter upwards. I place a paper towel on the top. Blend until smooth.Taste and add more chipotles in adobo if you like.Put blended sauce back into the pan, then stir in chicken and cook over low heat until chicken is hot and well coated, about 5 minutes or so.Add more broth if you like – I usually don’t since we like a thicker Tinga. Tortilla Instructions:Easy peasy: turn burner on stove to medium, then place tortilla on top, turning after a few seconds to blister it a bit. I used flour tortillas but you can use corn tortillas. Don’t linger while blistering the tortillas as they will get dry fairly quick. Lime crema:1 cup sour cream1 cup mayonnaiseChipotles in adobo, to taste (puree first)Lime juice to tasteSalt to tasteChopped parsley – optional Instructions:Just mix everything together. More garnishes:Chopped cabbage, guacamole or avocado, fresh cilantro, green or red onion or onion chives, crumbled Cotija cheese or Mexican blend cheese To serve:Top tortillas with chicken and garnish as desired. Serve with wedge of lime. ***** Brady Stiller, author of Your Life is a Story: GK Chesterton and the Paradox of Freedom Full list of guestsSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
