Pope Benedict XVI has declared a “Year for Priests” beginning with the Solemnity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus on June 19, 2009. The year will conclude in Rome with an international gathering of priests with the Holy Father from June 9-11, 2010.
Thought for This Week:
"If John the Baptist trembled and did not touch the holy head of God; ... how holy, just and fitting must be he who touches with his hands, receives with his heart and mouth, and offers to others to be received the One Who is not about to die but Who is to conquer and be glorified, upon Whom the angels longed to gaze."
St. Francis of Assisi
