As Marian Sisters devoted to living the "fullness of the Liturgical life," prayer and worship spill over from the Chapel to effect all we do and say. Click "Read in Browser" to view the photo journal of our commemoration of "Burying the Alleluia." “Let us amend for the better in those things in which we have sinned through ignorance: lest suddenly overtaken by the day of death,
we seek space for repentance and are not able to find it." “Attend, O Lord, and have mercy: for we have sinned against Thee." “Help us, O God, our Savior: and for the glory of Thy name, O Lord, deliver us.” -Responsory (Ps. 78:9) for the Blessing of the Ashes It has been two months now since our last “Month in Review” – what a full and grace-filled time it has been for us Sisters! Lent and Easter brought a time of deeper prayer and conversion of heart for each of us, but also a time of fervent apostolic activity.
After a hiatus, we return to our document study of Pope St. John Paul II’s encyclical: Ecclesia de Eucharistia. Read parts I, and II.
Advent is the season of Our Lady. During the first Advent, Mary carried the Christ-child next to her heart and waited in joyful expectation for His birth.
Let us resume our document study of Pope St. John Paul II’s encyclical: Ecclesia de Eucharistia. In his Introduction the Holy Father expressed his intent of rekindling in the faithful our amazement at the gift of the Eucharist. In Chapter One was emphasized the presence of the entire Paschal Mystery of Jesus Christ – Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity – in every Eucharistic consecration at Holy Mass. From this foundation St. John Paul II then looks to how the Eucharist “Builds the Church” and at its “Apostolicity”.
