Submit Your Intentions for Ten Holy Masses, Sept. 6-15

Dear Friend, 

How often do we make the sign of the Cross? Gaze upon our Crucified Lord on the cross? Kiss a Crucifix? Is it once daily or several times during the day and night? 

Pope Benedict XVI said in a 2006 homily: “Christians, however, do not exalt just any cross but the Cross which Jesus sanctified with his sacrifice, the fruit and testimony of immense love. Christ on the Cross pours out his Blood to set humanity free from the slavery of sin and death. Therefore, from being a sign of malediction, the Cross was transformed into a sign of blessing, from a symbol of death into a symbol par excellence of the Love that overcomes hatred and violence and generates immortal life.”

How important the Cross is today, in this upside-down world – take hold of it, so that you and your family are not swept away from the one, true Catholic Church. 

Christ has triumphed over death. That victory is not for us alone but extended to all who humble themselves and come beneath the Cross to find redemption. 

More and more, society disregards that Sundays are holy days in which we worship God, Our Creator and are to thank Jesus at Holy Mass for dying on the cross for our sins.

Remember, as the world spirals downward, out of control, the Cross stands firm! 

Let us bring our personal petitions, for those of the world to the foot of the Cross, where Our Lady of Sorrows stays close to her Son.
