Fr Young will say Mass at 8:00 at St Al’s (NOM) followed by the Novena to Our Lady of Perpetual Help.

With God there are only individuals
The person who renounces seems weak to the person incapable of renunciation
To depend on God alone is our true autonomy
Yes- say, “I believe in God”. Rather still- say, “God believes in me!”

Adoration before Mass




Is there any sorrow like unto thy sorrows, O dear Mother of the Incarnate Word?


“All the suffering, and all the mysteries which the Father decreed from all eternity that I should suffer and carry out, as He ordered from My very birth, and willed, moreover, that the prophets should foretell concerning Me. There remains only the final issue of death, to complete My course of suffering, to expiate thereby the penalty of death, which Adam incurred by sin, and to restore mankind to life. I therefore embrace it, and resign My spirit into the hands of My Father.” Fr Lapide
