Dear Friends, This week on Tuesday, August 4, we celebrated the memorial of St. John Mary Vianney. He is the patron saint of parish priests, which means that he has an important role to play in the protection and sanctification of parishioners and parishes as well. The next few weeks, I would like to dedicate to the simple advice given through this great saint. Let us start with his advice on the mass. “All good works, taken together, do not equal the sacrifice of the Mass” – he would say – “since they are human works, while the Holy Mass is the work of God.” This is the truth. Therefore, it also matters that our interior disposition be one that is not routine and ordinary, but one that reflects the truth of the mass. Therefore, our interior disposition before, during and after are vital to offering a worship that is pleasing to Him and valuable for the salvation of our souls. Listen to the salient and very practical advice provided for us by the Holy Curé d’Ars in a sermon titled, Clear Your Minds: “If you desire the worship that you give to God to be pleasing to Him and valuable for the salvation of your soul, put it properly into practice. Begin by preparing for holy Mass as soon as you are awake, uniting yourself to all the Masses which are being said at that moment. When the bell rings to call you to the house of God, consider the fact that it is Jesus Christ Himself calling you. Start out immediately, so that you will have a moment to meditate upon the tremendous act at which you are about to assist. Do not say, like those people who have no religion, that you have plenty of time, that you will be there soon enough. But say, rather, with the Holy Prophet: "I rejoice when I am told that we are going into the house of the Lord.” When you come out from your home, think about what you are going to do and what you are going to ask of God. Begin by clearing your mind of earthly matters so that you will be thinking of God only. Avoid all sorts of unnecessary conversations which serve no other purpose than to make you hear Mass badly. When you enter the church, recall to yourself what the holy patriarch Jacob said: How awesome is this place! How holy it is! It is truly the house of God and the gateway to Heaven! When you get to your place, humble yourself profoundly as you think of your own unworthiness and the greatness of your God, Who, nevertheless, in spite of your sins, wishes to suffer you in His holy presence. Make an act of faith with all your heart. Ask God to give you the grace to lose none of the many favors which He grants to those who come here with good dis positions. Open your heart so that the word of God may enter it, take root in it, and bear fruit there for eternal life. Before leaving the church, do not fail to thank God for the graces He has just given you and go straight home, fully occupied with the thoughts of what you have seen and heard. Yes, my dear children, if we conducted ourselves in this manner, we should never come away from the services of the Church without being filled with a fresh desire for Heaven and a new disgust for ourselves and the things of this earth. Our hearts and our minds would be given over altogether to God and not at all to the world. Then the house of God would truly be for us the gateway to Heaven. That is what I desire for you.” And he would urge them: “Come to communion, my brothers and sisters, come to Jesus. Come to live from him in order to live with him…Of course you are not worthy of him, but you need him!”. It is also said that he would recommend to his parishioners daily mass stating, “when you think of going to Mass on working days, it is an impulse of the grace that God wills to grant you. Follow it.” One last thing, as you come to mass, please pray for priests and for vocations to the priesthood. As our Lord Jesus Himself instructed us to do, “The harvest is abundant but the laborers are few; so ask the master of the harvest to send out laborers for his harvest.” There is no better place than before the Blessed Sacrament to ask for more holy priests to offer more masses and hear more confessions throughout the world, something the Church and the whole world could benefit from. Mary, Our Lady of Peace, pray for us, Fr. Brian

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. What is a Spiritual Communion? St. Thomas Aquinas once defined Spiritual Communion as “an ardent desire to receive Jesus in the Most Holy Sacrament and in lovingly embracing Him as if we had actually received Him.” You just need to approach Him with sincerity, humility and a desire to follow in His footsteps in acts of faith and charity. St. Jean-Marie Vianney, a French priest famous for converting countless souls to Christ in his parish of Ars in the 19th century, once said “when we feel the love of God growing cold, let us instantly make a Spiritual Communion. When we cannot go to the church, let us turn towards the tabernacle; no wall can shut us out from the good God.”
