The Octave of Christmas

Christmas is one of two feasts the Church celebrates for an octave, i.e, 8 days. The other is Easter. Each of these unfathomable mysteries is too great to relegate to only 1 day. Let us celebrate and honor Our Savior, Immanuel, God with us.

Novena to the Holy Spirit

"Wait for the promise of the Father...you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you." Acts 1:5,6

Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful and enkindle in them the fire of your love. Send forth your Spirit, and they shall be created, and you shall renew the face of the earth.

Let us pray.

O, God, who by the light of the Holy Spirit, did instruct the hearts of the faithful, grant that by the same Holy Spirit we may be truly wise and ever enjoy His consolations. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
