October 20, 2019 Twenty-Ninth Sunday in Ordinary Time
Praying actualizes and deepens our communion with God. Our prayer can and should arise above all from our heart, from our needs, our hopes, our joys, our sufferings, from our shame over sin, and from our gratitude from the good. It can and should be a wholly personal prayer. Pope Benedict XVI
