Fr. Tom writes...
I serve as one of the spiritual directors of the World Apostolate of Fatima in this country and was asked to give a talk recently on the idea of making daily sacrifices for the conversion and salvation of sinners, one of the central themes of the Portuguese apparitions. It’s a deep (and deeply unfashionable!) subject, and one that appears to have been mostly the orbit of monks and nuns until the late Middle Ages. While most believers could understand the importance of making penance for confessed sins, or praying for the souls of a friend or family member who might be being purified in purgatory for heaven, the idea of deliberately forsaking one’s comfort on behalf of people one did not know, and might never know this side of the grave, was not widespread until people like St Margaret Mary Alocoque began to promote making reparation on behalf of others generally in the 17th century, as part of her devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The messages at Fatima pressed this theme, urging us to become what C S Lewis called ‘little Christs,’ offering up daily sacrifices for the good of the world.

AUGUST
For evangelization in the city.
Let us pray that in large cities often marked by anonymity and loneliness we find new ways to proclaim the Gospel, discovering creative paths to build community.
Please remember in your prayers those of our parish who are sick and those who care for them.
Father of goodness and love, hear our prayers for the sick members of our community and for all who are in need. Amid mental and physical suffering may they find consolation in your healing presence. Show your mercy as you close wounds, cure illness, make broken bodies whole and free downcast spirits. May these special people find lasting health and deliverance, and so join us in thanking you for all your gifts. We ask this through the Lord Jesus who healed those who believed. Amen.
