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.

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.

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.

Reflections

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.

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.
