On Friday, October 5, at 8:00 a.m. the monthly First Friday Mass will be offered.
The intention for the Mass is for the souls enrolled in the St Gregory Purgatorial Society.

Papal request for us to pray the Rosary –daily
Reminder – the Pope has asked us to pray the Rosary *every day* in the month of October for the defense of the Church against the attacks of the Evil One.
He’s asked us, also, to add the prayer “Sub tuum præsidium” (We fly unto thy protection, O holy Mother of God…) and the Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel at the end.
NB: The Book of Revelation 12 talks about a great battle between the dragon (the Evil One) on one side and St. Michael and “the woman” (the Virgin Mary and the Church) on the other side.
The Church will always be protected by Mary, The Holy Mother of God, and St. Michael the Archangel.

Ember Days after the Cross
Ember Days or the Quatuor Temporas are a traditional time of harvest fasting “four times” per year. The Ember days are the Wednesday, September 19, Friday, September 21 and Saturday, September 22.
This is a time to ask God for the gift of holy priests for the harvest of souls. Let us voluntarily take up the Ember Days, whatever your intention may be.
