Feast of the Assumption


"Sing of Mary, pure and lowly, Virgin Mother, undefiled. Sing of God's own Son most holy, who became her little child. Fairest child of fairest Mother. God the Lord who came to earth. Word made flesh our very brother, takes our nature by His birth.
Sing of Jesus, Son of Mary, in the home at Nazareth. Toil and labor cannot weary love enduring unto death. Constant was the love He gave her, though He went forth from her side. Forth to preach and heal and suffer 'til on Calvary He died."

Mary our sweetness and our hope, pray for 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.
