Many began to believe

Theme: I will forgive their evildoing and remember their sin no more. (Jer 31:34)
Grace: Abandonment
Scripture: John 10:31-42

Jesus carried our sins in his own body on the cross so that we could die to sin and live in holiness; by his wounds we have been healed. (1Peter 2:24)

"Our meditation, if it is true prayer, will keep us alert in the face of the enemy who never sleeps. And it will make us strong so as to endure and defeat temptations and difficulties. If we were to neglect it we would find ourselves in the hands of the enemy. We would lose our joy and we would be left without the strength to accompany Jesus." (from In Conversation With God, vol. 2, p. 238)

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.
