Submit
your intentions 9 Holy Masses, April 20-28
Dear Friend,
Today, we begin our meditation and
prayers to Our Lady and St. Gianna Molla. Here are the Day One prayers.
As a lay person, St. Gianna
exemplified holiness at every level inside her triple vocation as
wife, mother and doctor. In each of those seemingly ordinary roles,
she exercised virtue to a heroic degree. Because of this, St. Gianna
is often called the “saint of the ordinary.” Even her husband, Pietro
Molla affectionately said of her when he discovered his wife’s cause
for canonization was opened, “Look, I know I married a fantastic
woman. But she was so normal!”
St. Gianna had such an unwavering
trust in the Blessed Virgin Mary, in every circumstance of her
life. Therefore, during these enriching nine days, we will also
reflect on Our Lady of Good Counsel – Feast Day, April 26 and Our Lady
of Montserrat – Feast Day, April 27. It was no coincidence that two of
Our Lady’s feast days fell during the last two days of St. Gianna’s
final agony, before her death on April 28, 1962.
If you haven’t had a chance
to submit your intentions or would like to
update them, for the Nine
Holy Masses, from April 20-28, please do so now. After
Day Three, only those who submitted their intentions and signed up to
receive the novena will receive Days 4-9.
Together, let us storm heaven to
ask Our Lady and St. Gianna to intercede for all the desires of our
hearts, and most especially for that many graces be bestowed upon
Cardinal Burke.
Yours in the Sacred Heart of Jesus
and the Immaculate Heart of Mary,
