Saint Charles Borromeo Marian Prayer for Holy Priests
O Holy Mother of God, pray for the priests
Your Son has chosen to serve the Church.
Help them by your intercession,
to be holy, zealous, and chaste.
Make them models of virtue
in the service of God’s people.
Help them to be prayerful in meditations,
effective in preaching, and enthusiastic
in the daily offering of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass.
Help them to administer the sacraments with joy. Amen.

RECIPES FROM RITA: BAJA FISH TACOS
Really, these are good any time of year but especially nice for something different during Lent.
Ingredients
Fish:
3 (6-ounce) tilapia fillets
Spice mixture:
Combine and set aside:
1 1/2 teaspoons sweet paprika
1 1/2 teaspoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon dried oregano
3/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/8 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
Tortillas – soft flour tortillas – 4-6 medium
Instructions
Sprinkle about 1 tablespoon spice mixture evenly over both sides of each fish. Film skillet with oil. Over medium high heat add fish and cook 3 minutes each side or until done. Don’t overcook.
Tortillas:
I have an electric stove with coils. To blister the tortilla a tiny bit, I use tongs and place each one on a hot coil for a few seconds, turning over and blistering the other side. Don’t overdo or tortillas won’t be soft enough to fold.
Lime Crema
Mix together:
1 cup sour cream
1 cup mayonnaise
Chipotles in adobo to taste (pureed in food processor first) – this give it some kick
Lime juice to taste – I like a good amount
Salt to taste
To serve: divide fish among tortillas, and top with crema or your favorite salsa, cilantro, sour cream, etc.
