SUNDAY COLLECT. In Thy tender mercy, direct our hearts, we beseech Thee, O Lord, because without Thee we are not able to

please Thee. Through our Lord.

SUNDAY EPISTLE: 1 Corinthians 1: 4-8 Brethren, I give thanks to my God always for you, for the grace of God that is given you in Christ Jesus, that in all things you are made rich in Him, in all utterance and in all knowledge, as the testimony of Christ was confirmed in you, so that nothing is wanting to you in any grace, waiting for the manifestation of our Lord

Jesus Christ. Who also will confirm you into the end without crime, in the day of the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. ..

SUNDAY GOSPEL: St. Matthew 9: 1-8 At that time, Jesus entering into a boat, passed over the water and came into His own city. And behold they brought Him one sick of the palsy lying in a bed: and

Jesus seeing their faith, said to the man sick of the palsy: Be of good heart, son, thy sins are forgiven thee. And behold some of the scribes said within them-

selves: He blasphemeth. And Jesus seeing their thoughts said: Why do you think evil in your hearts? whether is it easier to say: Thy sins are forgiven thee; or to say: Arise and walk? But that you may know that the Son of man hath power on earth to forgive sins (then said He to the man sick of the palsy): Arise, take

up thy bed, and go into thy house. And he arose, and went into his house. And the multitude seeing it, feared, and glorified God who had given such power to men.

parishes and families saying in the Catholic Sun:

“Along with the diocesan consecration, I also encour-age our priests to consecrate their parishes and our families to consecrate their homes to the Immaculate

Heart of Mary.”

We hope many of you can come to celebrate such a great occasion for Our Lady.

Family Prayer of Consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary

for the Centenary of Our Lady of Fatima

M other Mary, we consecrate our entire family to your Immaculate Heart. We desire to renew the

promises of our baptism and place each mem-ber of our family, through this consecration, into loving union with your Holy Family.

At Fatima, dear Mother of God, you appeared with St. Joseph and the Child Jesus, blessing the world. Inter-cede for our family that each of us grow in the virtues

and joy which you lived as a family. Help us to grow as faithful disciples of Jesus; help our domestic church to grow as a light which gives your Son glory from our home.

Our Lady of Fatima, pray for Jesus’ peace to fill each member of our family. (You may wish to name each family member, or a particular family member, at this

point if it seems right to do so.) Never permit any member of our family to stray from the Catholic Faith. For any member of our family who is beset by doubts, we beseech you to be their guide through the darkness back to the light of your Son. Watch over our persever-ance so that we may all one day be reunited with you and the whole family of God in our Father’s house.

Amen.
