A new time pressing on the threshold of the world: “To inaugurate tangibly in the Church, the true house of adoration, a universal ‘Upper Room’. In this way the faithful will be united with the Mother of God who prayed ardently in the Upper Room of Jerusalem and will be able to implore and beg the Holy Spirit, through a ceaseless Come, forth longed-for renewal of the face of the earth.” “Pentecost is not over. In fact it is continually going on in every time and in every place, because the Holy Spirit desires to give Himself to all men, and all who want Him can always receive Him, so we do not have to envy the Apostles and the first believers; we only have to dispose ourselves like them to receive Him well and He will come to us as He did to them” “We need the silence that quietens every voice and enables us to listen to the voice of the Holy Spirit.

In 1895 he exhorted all Catholics to devoutly make this Holy Spirit Novena, suggesting a special formula of prayer: “Send forth your Spirit and renew the world.” With this in mind, in 1896 Blessed Elena Guerra, “the Holy Spirit Apostle of modern times”, composed these invocations to ask the Holy Spirit for the grace of a New Pentecost, which renews the face of the earth. Chaplet: (Sing verses of Abba Father Hymn (2) through the chaplet) ‘O God, come to my assistance, O Lord, make haste to help me. Glory be to the Father...’ (In each mystery ask for a gift of the Holy Spirit) The seven mysteries invoking the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit. 1 - L.

We’ll spend time in prayer and worship and then listen to a short, encouraging real-life testimony from a parishioner about one of nine ways the Holy Spirit works in our life. After that we’ll have quiet time before Jesus in the Eucharist, to ask him and the Father to pour out the Holy Spirit upon us. We’ll end the evening praying the Chaplet of the Holy Spirit together as we intercede for the Church and the world, and for the fulfillment of Jesus’ promise that we would be baptized in the Holy Spirit. What Does The Holy Spirit Want To Do In Us? The Holy Spirit creates a desire and longing for prayer. The Holy Spirit brings us real joy in a world of passing pleasures. The Holy Spirit creates a hunger for reading Scripture. The Holy Spirit stirs up a genuine sorrow for sin and desire for new life in Christ.

  • PRAISE HIM! May/June 2017
    Disciples of the Lord Jesus Christ Publication Volume XLIV No. 3 PRAISE HIM! May/June 2017 Hungering and Thirsting for God by Dr. Tom Curran Blessed Elena Guerra “Missionary of the Holy Spirit” by Christof Hemberger The Duquesne Weekend by Patti Gallagher Mansfield A Note From Mother Juana Teresa Chung, DLJC Superior General Dear Friends, Jesus loves you! It is a great joy to continue to celebrate the Jubilee of Catholic Charismatic Renewal! One of the things that I have been meditating upon is, the double portion of the Spirit that Elisha asked Elijah in 2 Kings 2:9. As I read these words, I was inspired to ask the Lord for more of the Holy Spirit, for an increase of the Sanctifying gifts and charisms for the service of the Church. Let me share with you some of the things that I have been doing to be better disposed to receive more of His Holy Spirit. First, for the increase of the Sanctifying gifts, I have been meditating upon and have been more aware of God’s grace in my life in day-to-day situations. In addition, I have decided to increase my visits to the Blessed Sacrament because He is the source of these gifts. God has given us these beautiful gifts so that we may be more like Him. What a joy and consolation is to know that we can rely on His mighty and powerful gifts to grow in His likeness. Secondly, for the increase of the charism for the service of the Church, I have been studying, asking questions about the gifts from those people who manifest the charisms, and then praying for these gifts.

    Weekly Publication of the Diocese of Miami - •*** *THE VOICE 1 Covering the 16 Counties of South Florida P.O. Box 52-684, Miami 52, FJs. I Return Postage Guaranteed I Volume 1, No. 2 Price $5 a year ... 15 cents a copy March 27, 1959 itdeet. cut Diocese to Observe April As Vocation Prayer Month To the Priests, Religious arid Faitllfal of the Diocese: Ths month of April is to be observed as Vocation Month in the Diocese. During these four weeks, we will concentrate, first of all, on fervent prayers for a great increase in the numbers of priests and sisters; and then on frequent, simple instructions, so that each may understand the meaning and dignity of a vocation and be aware of his responsibility in encour- aging young people to dedicate themselves to the service of God. If all of our people come to an understanding of the critical shortage of priests, I am confident they will be impressed with the obligation of cooperating in every way possible in this most noble work of pro- viding the Church in the Diocese of Miami with priestly laborers for Christ. The full program of activity during Vocation Month will be curried weekly in THE VOICE. The prayer for Vocations is to be said after every Mass on weekdays and Sundays. I earnestly commend to ever;- family the most praiseworthy practice of pray- ing fas vocations immediately after the evening meal arid begging God to bless them and their relatives and neighbors with the privilege of having a son a priest, a daughter a nun.

    May 9, 2021 Sixth Sunday of Easter A New Pentecost From 1895 to 1903 Pope Leo XIII received 12 confidential letters from a nun named Sister Elena Guerra. Elena, who had founded a religious community called the Oblates of the Holy Spirit, appealed to the Pope to lead the Church back to the Upper Room in order to bring about a renewed life in the Spirit. Elena believed that the experience of the MASS INTENTIONS AND READINGS apostles in the Upper Room at Pentecost wasn’t simply an event of the Monday, May 10 past but an experience that is perpetually available to every Christian of St Damien de Veuster, Priest every age. Inspired by Sister Elena ’ s letters, Pope Leo issued a document Acts 16:11-15; Jn 15:26-16:4a in 1895 in which he asked the faithful to pray a solemn novena to the Holy Spirit every year between the feasts of the Ascension and 8:15 am Gary Pierron (Pierron) Pentecost. As commendable as this was, Elena kept writing and Tuesday, May 11 encouraged the Pope to teach more on the Holy Spirit.
