My brothers and sisters, Christ our Lord is risen from the dead, so let us show our risen Lord to the world today by renewing our lives in Him; by being His light in the world today; and by carrying His light to others when we spread His love, joy and happiness to the world.
Behold, Jesus Christ crucified, who is the only foundation of our hope; He is our mediator and advocate; the victim and sacrifice for our sins.
The central action of being Christians is the Eucharist: gratitude for having been gratified, the joy for the new life that He (God) gives us.
Enjoy God's amazing opportunities bestowed on us. Have faith in Him always.
Saint Paternus, you dedicated your life to the Christian faith by your preaching, charity, and life of mortification…, please pray for us to be dedicated in our call to tirelessly spread the gospel and to inspire others to become powerful forces for good in the world. Amen.
Grief is a portion of one's heritage taken in advance from Purgatory.
So my dear friends in Christ, let us avoid and fight our spiritual inconstancy and fickleness by praying frequently, by mortifying ourselves through fasting; and by exemplifying God’s love to others through Almsgiving.
God, Light and Shepherd of souls, you established St. Julius as Pope over Your Church to feed Your flock by his word and form it by his example. Help us through his intercession to keep the Faith he thought by his word and follow the way he showed by his example. Amen.
Saint Stanislaus, your life of virtue, courage, and charity was a gift to the Church of Poland. Please pray for us that we will become true witnesses of Christ and sources of inspiration to others by never backing away from opposition, always preferring persecution over sin, and a holy life over fear of death. Amen!
O God, who mercifully brought Blessed Anthony back to the Light of Truth, and made him a glorious Martyr, grant, through his intercession, that we may always be faithful in the performance of good works. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
Saint Casilda pray for us that we will find peace in our hearts loving and helping all of God’s children regardless of their age, gender, race, beliefs or status.
Nothing happens by chance; it is always the disposition of God.
The more you devote yourself in prayer the more you will do well in your work.
So my brothers and sisters in Christ, let us learn to be compassionate and forgiving as God is to us and as Jesus was to the woman caught in adultery in today’s gospel reading, by not judging people, by letting go of the hurt we have experienced from others; and by truly trusting in God’s mercy, grace and love, as we repent from our sins and reconcile ourselves with Him.
Whatever you do, think not of yourself, but of God.
