Dear Parish Friends,
I declare and invite you to “A Day of Adoration and Prayer.” With the world on lockdown and dealing with a GLOBAL PANDEMIC, it is a very common feeling of being over-powered and frightened by all the waves of coronavirus news at this moment. There is a substantial need for some inspiration to move forward, even if it is in a small way. In this time when we are all affected by the coronavirus, whether directly or indirectly, whether physically, biologically, psychologically, spiritually, and for many economically, it may be helpful to remember that we are all in this together.
We are painfully aware that many of our Catholic people are troubled and hurt by the loss of the Eucharist, and the consolation of the Sacraments. We all deeply feel this bitter affliction. We ache with our people, and we long for the day when we can be reunited around the altar of the Lord to celebrate the sacred mysteries.
We are all part of the family of God, bigger than our biological families, bigger than our immediate families, bigger than our congregations, bigger than our dioceses, bigger than our cities, our states, and our nation. We are in a time when remembering our place in the family of God is important for all of us. We are in this together!
Therefore, on Friday, April 17, let us spend time in Adoration and Prayer, from 9:00 AM to 3:00 PM, and then conclude the day with the Novena to Divine Mercy at 3:00 PM. As you remain in your homes, nursing homes or assisted living, we invite you to join us in Adoration and Prayer.
