Missionary Cenacle Intentions: We dedicate today to honoring an Apostle of Jesus. Today we pray:
That an apostolic spirit thrive in the Missionary Cenacle, we pray.
That the Missionary Cenacle be a school for apostles in all its works, we pray.
That zeal, the white heat of charity, be abundant in the Church today, we pray.
For the members of the Missionary Cenacle Apostolate of Br. James McPike, Barkhamsted, CT, we pray.
For the members of the Missionary Cenacle, especially our sick, we pray.
For the deceased members of the Missionary Cenacle, especially Sr. Eucharia Nyman, MSBT, 1951; Sr. Matthew McGrath, MSBT, 1953; Sr. Callista Carey, MSBT, 1959; Sr. Angel Guardian Burr, MSBT, 1959; Sr. Mary Calvary Hogan, MSBT, 1979; Fr. Kieran Morrissey, ST, 1995; Helen Quinn, MCA, 2002, we pray.
Reading: The Church apart from teaching us to honor the Apostles in the honor she pays them, teaches us many holy lessons (concerning them,) and first of all, esteem. She cherishes the Apostles with a very particular love and veneration. (MCM, p. 155)
