Our Lord appeared to St. Margaret Mary Alocoque (1647- CANDLE INTENTIONS: 1690), a French nun in the Visitation Order, and gave her the special task to spread devotion to His Most Sacred Heart at a “A peaceful passing for my Nana” time when religion was growing cold in the hearts of mankind. He said to her: “ Behold this heart which, not withstanding the “Mary & Joseph Damato” burning love for men with which it is consumed and exhaust- ed, meets with no other return from most Christians than sac- “Patience!” rilege, contempt, indifference and ingratitude, even in the sac- rament of my love [the Eucharist]. But what pierces my heart “Blessings for our special needs children” most deeply is that I am subjected to these insults by persons especially consecrated to my service.” “For all going back to school” Jesus asked for special prayers and practices to make amends (reparation) for this great neglect to the proper rever- “For perseverance” ence owed to God. For those who did this faithfully, he made what St. Margaret Mary referred to as the “Great Promise” “For Christians facing hatred and persecution” which was the last and greatest of the Twelve Promises of the Sacred Heart of Jesus: O Most Holy Trinity, I adore Thee; my God, my God! “I promise you in the unfathomable mercy of my heart that my omnipotent love will procure the grace of final penitence for all I love Thee in the Blessed Sacrament!” those who receive communion on nine successive first Fridays of the month; they will not die in my disfavor [the grace of final repentance], or without having received the sacraments, since my divine heart will be their sure refuge in the last moments of Scripture their life.” READINGS FOR THE W EEK OF A UGUST 27, 2017 THINKING ABOUT BECOMING Sunday : Is 22:19-23/Ps 138:1-3, 6, 8/Rom 11:33-36/Mt A FULL MEMBER OF THE CATHOLIC CHURCH? 16:13-20 RCIA STARTS WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 13, AT 6:00 PM Monday : 1 Thes 1:1-5, 8b-10/Ps 149:1b-6a, 9b/Mt 23:13-22 We are offering a weekly program which prepares persons for Initiation into the Catholic Church.
