Missionary Cenacle Intentions: We dedicate Sundays to the Mystery of the Most Holy Trinity. Today we pray:

That we grow in our love of God our Father, of his Son Jesus and of the Holy Spirit, we pray.

In gratitude for the gift of Faith and that it may pervade all our decisions, we pray.

That we recognize the providence of God in our everyday lives, we pray.

For the members of the Missionary Cenacle Apostolate of Joyful Trinity, Clark, NJ, we pray.

For the members of the Missionary Cenacle, especially our sick, we pray.

For the deceased members of the Missionary Cenacle, especially Br. David Koessler, ST, 1998, we pray.

Reading: St. John Baptist, sent by Heaven to prepare the way, a divinely sent guide, shows us that we must do penance and be humbled. A spirit of mortification and humility, with much prayer and self examination, should mark all these blessed days of awaiting His coming. (MCM, p. 5)
