All praise and honor to Christ! He lives for ever to intercede for us, and he is able to save those who approach the Father in his name.
Sustained by our faith, let us call upon him:
Remember your people, Lord.
As the day draws to a close, Sun of Justice, we invoke your name upon the whole human race,
— so that all men may enjoy your never failing light.
Remember your people, Lord.
Preserve the covenant which you have ratified in your blood,
— cleanse and sanctify your Church.
Remember your people, Lord.
Remember your assembly, Lord,
— your dwelling place.
Remember your people, Lord.
Guide travelers along the path of peace and prosperity,
— so that they may reach their destinations in safety and joy.
Remember your people, Lord.
Receive the souls of the dead, Lord,
— grant them your favor and the gift of eternal glory.
Remember your people, Lord.

Reflection: Jesus Cures Simon Peter’s Mother-in-Law
One of the Gospels for this week is a narrative about Jesus as He begins healing the sick. In this 2018 Post, My Reflection outlines what we can particularly learn from the example of Peter’s mother-in-law, and the example of the prophet Samuel in the First Reading, as well as some reminders about our calling from God.
This first Post to start off the 20’s offers an absorbing My Reflection. I’m sharing with you my heartfelt personal advice on how to let go of the past… the way I did. Many “practicing” Catholics are still carrying the heavy baggages of the past—hurts, wounds, bad choices, wrong decisions, mistakes, regrets. Here is a Catholic perspective on why letting go of the past will enable you to move on, with God, to have a present and a future. I guarantee that there is so much to reflect on and learn in my piece. Happy New Year 2020!
Our aim is to help Catholics strengthen their spiritual life, deepen their understanding of the faith, and intensify their holiness by catechesis and a variety of Catholic information.
