My Jesus, 
I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament. 
I love You above all things, 
and I desire to receive You into my soul. 
Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally, 
come at least spiritually into my heart. 
I embrace You as if You were already there 
and unite myself wholly to You. 
Never permit me to be separated from You.  Amen.

A PRAYER FOR PEACE BY POPE FRANCIS
 
Lord God of peace, hear our prayer!
We have tried so many times and over so many years
to resolve our conflicts by our own powers and by the force of our arms.
How many moments of hostility and darkness have we experienced?
how much blood has been shed?
how many lives have been shattered?
how many hopes have been buried?
But our efforts have been in vain.
 
Now, Lord, come to our aid!
Grant us peace, teach us peace;
guide our steps in the way of peace.
Open our eyes and our hearts,
and give us the courage to say: "Never again war!"; "With war everything is lost".
Instill in our hearts the courage to take concrete steps to achieve peace.
 
Lord, God of Abraham, God of the Prophets, God of Love,
you created us and you call us to live as brothers and sisters.
Give us the strength daily to be instruments of peace;
enable us to see everyone who crosses our path as our brother or sister.
Make us sensitive to the plea of our citizens
who entreat us to turn our weapons of war into implements of peace,
our trepidation into confident trust,
and our quarreling into forgiveness.
Keep alive within us the flame of hope,
so that with patience and perseverance
we may opt for dialogue and reconciliation.
In this way may peace triumph at last,
and may the words "division," "hatred," and "war"
be banished from the heart of every man and woman.
 
Lord, defuse the violence of our tongues and our hands.
Renew our hearts and minds,
so that the word which always brings us together will be "brother,"
and our way of life will always be that of: Shalom, Peace, Salaam!
Amen.

LITTLE LIGHT OF MINE, January 22nd - 29TH, 2023

Picture


On February 2nd we will celebrate the Feast of the Presentation of the Lord, also known as Candlemas. This feast day commemorates Mary and Joseph taking their firstborn son to the Temple to be dedicated to the Lord, in accord with the ancient customs of their people. There was a ritual of purification for the mother who had given birth and a dedication of the newborn child. Every firstborn son had to be “redeemed” before the Lord because God had a special claim on the firstborn male of all the animals of the field, but also from among his people. There was a customary offering made for this event: either a lamb or, if they cannot afford a lamb, two doves or pigeons. Being poor, Mary and Joseph offered the birds when the brought Jesus for this occasion.
 
Historically, this feast became a common day for men and women in training with religious orders to take their vows. This was to draw a parallel between Jesus being offered completely to God, His life in service of his Father, and the way a religious’ vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience are meant to make of their lives a total offering to God. Not all communities keep this particular day for this purpose any more, but in 1997, Pope St. John Paul II declared that Candlemas would also be observed as World Day of Prayer for Consecrated Life—both to pray for vowed religious and to pray for more vocations to these ways of life.
 
The theme of light, which has been prominent in the Christmas and Epiphany liturgies of the past weeks, is again strongly present in this feast, hence its close association with candles and the blessing and lighting of candles for use at church and in the homes of the faithful. Christ is the Light of the World, and at each of our baptisms, our own baptismal candles are lit from the Paschal Candle which represents Christ. Godparents are told, “this light is entrusted to you to be kept burning brightly” for the sake of the baptized person themselves, but also to help share the light of the Gospel with the world. Taking blessed candles home from church is a reminder of our mission to share the Light of Christ with others in the world, not just inside the four walls of our churches.
