That St. Joseph, patron of happy deaths, be with those who will die today, we pray.

That men and women in formation in the Missionary Cenacle persevere in their vocations, we pray.

That the love nourished in families be an image of God's love for all, we pray.

For the members of the Missionary Cenacle Apostolate of Nuestra Señora de La Victoria, East Los Angeles, CA, we pray.

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

For the deceased members of the Missionary Cenacle, especially Sr. Mary Brendan Kenny, MSBT, 1964; Sr. George Chrysostom Barker, MSBT, 1994; Sr. Eucharista Pomales, MSBT, 1996, we pray.

Reading: Blessed are those whose minds, whose hearts, whose affections are detached from the things of the world, and therefore. whose spirit can soar on high. Only those, I say, are able to go to. God without the clod of earth. for they have liberty of spirit. (MCM, p. 216)
