MARY, QUEEN OF MARTYRS,
PRAY FOR US.
Saint Paul writes this in his Letter to the Ephesians: "For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus for good works that God has prepared in advance, that we should live in them" (Eph 2:10). Pope, now Saint John Paul II, wrote this in his 1999 Letter to Artists: "Not all are to be called artists in the specific sense of the term. Yet, as Genesis has it, all men and women are entrusted with the task of crafting their own life; in a certain sense, they are to make of it a work of art, a masterpiece." May we live in good works and make our lives works of art. We go by the grace of God and "seek the things that are above" (Col 3:1).
May we never boast, except in the Cross of Our Lord Jesus Christ. For the word of the Cross is the power of God to us who have been saved.
(Entrance Antiphon, Mass)
SAINTS JOHN DE BREBEUF, ISAAC JOGUES, AND COMPANIONS,
PRAY FOR US.
