Readings: Phlm 7-20 / Lk 17:20-25

Missionary Cenacle Intentions: We dedicate Thursdays to the Mystery of the Eucharist. Today we pray:

That we grow in our hunger and thirst for the Body and Blood of the Lord, we pray.

For a spirit of hospitality among all races, cultures and peoples of our world, we pray.

For an increase in vocations to the priesthood, we pray.

For the members of the Missionary Cenacle Apostolate of Resurrection, Dothan, AL, we pray.

For the members of the Missionary Cenacle, especially Sr. Beth Molnar, MSBT; Fr. Julenord Clervil, ST we pray.

For the deceased members of the Missionary Cenacle, especially Amy Lackett, MCV, 1992; Sr. Eileen McLoughlin, MSBT, 2023, we pray.

Reading: Our spirit is taken from the practice of our devotions. There is nothing comparable to these devotions. What is comparable to the Mystery of the Holy Trinity? What is comparable to the Mystery of the Incarnation, to the abiding of the Holy Spirit in the Church and in the souls of the faithful? What is comparable to the Mental Sorrows of Jesus? (MCM, p. 314)
