Reflection

  • The consecration of Mary to God presented all the conditions of the most perfect sacrifice: it was prompt, generous, joyous, unregretted, without reservation. How agreeable it must have been to God! May our consecration of ourselves to God be made under Her patronage, assisted by Her powerful intercession and united with Her ineffable merits.

Parting is such sweet sorrow! We had to say goodbye and cuddle and kiss so many times you'd think that they were leaving home for good.

Prayer for Priests

  • Download mass60.gif (58.9K)
    Keep them; I pray Thee, dearest Lord. Keep them, for they are Thine The priests whose lives burn out before Thy consecrated shrine. Keep them, for they are in the world, Though from the world apart. When earthly pleasures tempt, allure -- Shelter them in Thy heart. Keep them and comfort them in hours Of loneliness and pain, When all their life of sacrifice For souls seems but in vain. Keep them and remember, Lord, they have no one but Thee. Yet, they have only human hearts, With human frailty. Keep them as spotless as the Host, That daily they caress; Their every thought and word and deed, Deign, dearest Lord, to bless. By the late John J Cardinal Carberry
