OUR LADY OF FATIMA DEVOTIONS

Thank you to all of those people who made the Fatima Devotions possible this year.  We have faithfully honored Our Lady every 13^th of the month from May through October.  We have responded to this pandemic with unity and prayer, compassion and tenderness.  We were able to continue the devotions in our Church this year as well as provide live streaming for those who could not be in attendance.

Renee Boland was devoted to getting the devotions out to the public by learning some very technical expertise and allowing people to participate remotely.

Father Toomey continued these devotions for 15 years after Father Kelly gave his approval in 2005.  Father Andrew continues our tradition of honoring Our Lady along with our Deacon John Jorda.

Helen provides the beautiful music and coordinates every little detail while Renee provides quality control and is always willing to help.

Ed and John made sure everything in the Church was operational and always checked last minute items.

There are so many people who honor Our Lady with their personal touch during these devotions, like Leah who greets you with a smile when you arrive at the Church and John who helps prepare the altar as well a helping the priest leading the devotions.

God bless all of the people who attended or watched the Fatima Devotions and to those responsible for making it happen.

Our Lady of Fatima, pray for us!

Sacrament of Reconciliation: Every Saturday from Noon – 1pm

Confessions are heard at Gate of Heaven during the odd Months (January , March, May, July, September & November) and at Our Lady of Victory during the even months (February, April, June, August, October & December).

We have resumed using the proper confessionals for the Sacrament of Reconciliation.

Monthly Parish Prayer Hour

 MONTHLY PARISH PRAYER HOUR
will be discontinued going forward

Although we will no longer meet to pray,  you may continue to pray for our parishes and parishioners at home.   The Parish is always in need of prayer, but now even more.   Prayer allows us to open ourselves up to God’s action in our lives.   Prayer is a time when we humbly approach our Lord and submit our lives, intentions and plan for his guidance, insights, strength and providence.

In preparation for the live stream of the Holy Mass on Sunday

The following prayer is very important to help you enter into the communion part of the Mass…so as to experience a spiritual communion with the Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament.

You may pray it when I am receiving the Body and Blood of Christ at the altar, just before I purify the vessels. 

Act of Spiritual Communion

My Jesus,
I believe that You
are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love you above all things,
and I desire to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment receive you sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart.
I embrace you as if you were already there
and unite myself wholly to You.
Never permit me to be separated from You.
Amen

After Spiritually receiving the Graces of Holy Communion you may pray the following prayer

Anima Christi

Soul of Christ, sanctify me.
Body of Christ, save me.
Blood of Christ, inebriate me.
Water from the side of Christ, wash me.
Passion of Christ, strengthen me.
O Good Jesus, hear me.
Within your wounds hide me.
Permit me not to be separated from you.
From the wicked foe, defend me.
At the hour of my death, call me
and bid me come to you
That with your saints I may praise you
For ever and ever. Amen.
