Blessed is she who believed



"In few but most excellent words, she [Mary] poured forth from her sacred lips honey and precious balm! For what could she pour out save what she was filled with? --she was full of Jesus" St. Francis de Sales (quoted by Cardinal Carlo Maria Martini, SJ, in The Gospel Way of Mary)

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.
