Prayer to Mary, Spouse of the Holy Spirit:

The Holy Spirit dispenses His choicest graces to those who have a tender love and devotion to Mary, His Immaculate Spouse. Mary, on her part, obtains the richest blessings for souls who honor and invoke her as the Spouse of the Holy Spirit.

O MARY, thou spotless Bride of the Holy Spirit, thou art the glory of Jerusalem, the joy of Israel, the honor of our nation! Thou, as the Valiant Woman, didst crush the head of the serpent when thou didst offer thy Divine Son to the Heavenly Father, in the love of the Holy Spirit, for the salvation of the world. Through the merits of this precious Sacrifice and through the sufferings of thy Son, obtain for us the Gifts of the Holy Spirit. I thank the Holy Spirit that He has chosen thee as His Bride and constituted thee the dispenser of His graces. Look upon me with thy compassionate eyes; look upon my distress and needs. Help me, that I may never lose the grace of God nor defile the temple of the Holy Spirit, but that my heart may ever remain His holy dwelling, and that with thee I may eternally praise and bless the Holy Spirit in Heaven.  Amen. 

 

Our Lady of Light, Spouse of the Holy Spirit, pray for us.

]]> Ave Maria,
As we celebrate Pentecost, may we call down the Holy Spirit with the Franciscan Friars of the Immaculate!

 

VENI, Sancte Spiritus,
et emitte caelitus
lucis tuae radium.		 COME, Holy Ghost,
send down those beams,
which sweetly flow in silent streams
from Thy bright throne above.
Veni, pater pauperum,
veni, dator munerum
veni, lumen cordium.		 O come, Thou Father of the poor;
O come, Thou source of all our store,
come, fill our hearts with love.
Consolator optime,
dulcis hospes animae,
dulce refrigerium.		 O Thou, of comforters the best,
O Thou, the soul’s delightful guest,
the pilgrim’s sweet relief.
In labore requies,
in aestu temperies
in fletu solatium.		 Rest art Thou in our toil, most sweet
refreshment in the noonday heat;
and solace in our grief.
O lux beatissima,
reple cordis intima
tuorum fidelium.		 O blessed Light of life Thou art;
fill with Thy light the inmost heart
of those who hope in Thee.
Sine tuo numine,
nihil est in homine,
nihil est innoxium.		 Without Thy Godhead nothing can,
have any price or worth in man,
nothing can harmless be.
Lava quod est sordidum,
riga quod est aridum,
sana quod est saucium.		 Lord, wash our sinful stains away,
refresh from heaven our barren clay,
our wounds and bruises heal.
Flecte quod est rigidum,
fove quod est frigidum,
rege quod est devium.		 To Thy sweet yoke our stiff necks bow,
warm with Thy fire our hearts of snow,
our wandering feet recall.
Da tuis fidelibus,
in te confidentibus,
sacrum septenarium.		 Grant to Thy faithful, dearest Lord,
whose only hope is Thy sure word,
the sevenfold gifts of grace.
Da virtutis meritum,
da salutis exitum,
da perenne gaudium,
Amen, Alleluia.		 Grant us in life Thy grace that we,
in peace may die and ever be,
in joy before Thy face.
Amen. Alleluia.

In the homily for the memorial of St. Gregory the Great (Pope, Sept 3, 2019), Fr. Andre offers a catechesis on adult obligations toward youth, especially that of parents and ministers. Primarily they must arm youth with the truth about worthy Communion, received in awareness about the “last things” and the real dangers of sin and sacrilegious Communion—danger to their immortal soul; they must direct them to sacramental Confession, where they will experience the “baptism of fire” in the Holy Spirit, as preparation for receiving Holy Communion. Adults, especially ministers, must also teach youth about the critical importance of walking with Mary, the Mother of God, in their journey toward holiness and eternal life.

Ave Maria!
