September 30 - Prayer to St. Jerome (opens the original)
Read excerpt
O great interpreter of holy Scripture, seeking the wisdom and power of God you listened to what the Lord says in His Word and so served to dispel ignorance of Christ; from your hermitage you came to serve the Church just so, to enlighten the minds of the faithful – pray the Lord shall send forth today the light of His wisdom and grace upon those who turn to the pages of the Word of God in prayer, that He may be understood in truth, that Jesus may walk amongst us again… that knowing the Christ we
September 30 - Wednesday of the 26th Week in Ordinary Time, Year II (opens the original)
Read excerpt
(Job 9:1-12,14-16; Ps.88:3,10-15; Lk.9:57-62) "Why, O Lord, do you reject me; why hide from me your face?" The cry of our psalmist certainly reflects that of Job, who in his travails asks, "How can a man be justified before God?" who realizes that the Lord "does great things past finding out" and that "should He come near [us], [we] see Him not." But it also reflects Jesus' treatment of those who might follow Him, and could easily be their cry as well. "If I appealed to Him and He answered my ca

Read excerpt
O mighty messengers of the Lord, ministers of His will, bringing His word and His power to all poor souls on earth, you serve to lead us unto Heaven… you who do the bidding of God, you who are first among those who stand around His throne and sing His praise, you who are so faithful in defending His Kingship and keeping us from harm – cast the devil from our midst, instill the word of Jesus' coming in our hearts, bring His healing to the lost sheep, and see that we join you on His holy mountain
September 29 - Sts. Michael, Gabriel, and Raphael (opens the original)
Read excerpt
(Dn7:9-10,13-14 or Rv.12:7-12; Ps.138:1-5; Jn.1:47-51 I shall treat of both first readings) "You shall see the sky opened and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man." And who shall see such visions? He whose own vision is pure, he who is as Nathanael – he who has "no guile in him." Such is the case both with Daniel and John the Evangelist, of whose visions we hear in either first reading. The angels are with them, indeed, and they lift them up to look upon the Most High God
September 28 - Prayer to St. Lawrence Ruiz and Companions (opens the original)
Read excerpt
O simple and devout layman, husband and father and clerk, suddenly you were forced to flee your homeland and family with your missionary companions, but death for the faith each one of you met without wavering upon disembarking in a foreign land – pray, O blessed martyrs, our faith shall be strong as your own, that should we be called to witness even with our lives to the faith which gives us life, we will be ready to enter eternity with Christ our Lord and Savior. If tortures threaten our bodie
