Missionary Cenacle Intentions: We dedicate Mondays to the Mystery of the Holy Spirit. Today we pray:

That we may grow in our knowledge and love of the Holy Spirit, we pray.

That people suffering from addictions receive the grace of God and the help of others to gain freedom and serenity, we pray.

That zeal, the white heat of charity, may flourish in the Church, especially in our hearts, we pray.

For the members of the Missionary Cenacle Apostolate of Sagrada Familia, Ponce, Puerto Rico, we pray.

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

For the deceased members of the Missionary Cenacle, especially Fr. Pierce O=Connell, ST, 1990; Fr. Roderick Keane, ST, 1994; Fr. Philip Bronk, ST, 2011; Sr. Thomas Mary Gore, MSBT, 2015, we pray.

Reading: One reason why we should love God perfectly is this: because of what He did in Mary, because of what He did in the Church through Mary, because of what He did in the human family through Mary. Because of what He did in all of us through Mary. Praise God, then, and extol Him more and more because of Mary. (MCM, p. 31)
