Feast of the Most Precious Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ

July 1st
First Class Feast
Red

This Precious Blood was shed in the Circumcision, the Agony, the Scourging, the Crowning with thorns, and supremely in the Crucifixion of our Savior. It is offered daily in the Sacrifice of the Altar. 



Redemisti nos, Domine in sanguine tuo, ex omni tribu, et lingua, et populo, et natione, et fecisti nos Deo nostro regnum.

Thou hast redeemed us, O Lord, in Thy Blood, out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation, and hast made us to our God a kingdom. 

Epistle: Heb. 9:11-15
Gospel: Jn. 19:30-35

Hymn: Pange Lingua

Feast of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus


Cor Jesu Sacratissimum, Miserere Nobis!
Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy on us!

There will be a High Mass at St. John the Baptist Catholic Church in Front Royal, VA this evening at 5:30PM in honor of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus.

Act of Consecration to the Sacred Heart O Sacred Heart of Jesus, to Thee I consecrate and offer up my person and my life, my actions, trials, and sufferings, that my entire being may henceforth only be employed in loving, honoring and glorifying Thee. This is my irrevocable will, to belong entirely to Thee, and to do all for Thy love, renouncing with my whole heart all that can displease Thee.
I take Thee, O Sacred Heart, for the sole object of my love, the protection of my life, the pledge of my salvation, the remedy of my frailty and inconstancy, the reparation for all the defects of my life, and my secure refuge at the hour of my death. Be Thou, O Most Merciful Heart, my justification before God Thy Father, and screen me from His anger which I have so justly merited. I fear all from my own weakness and malice, but placing my entire confidence in Thee, O Heart of Love, I hope all from Thine infinite Goodness. Annihilate in me all that can displease or resist Thee. Imprint Thy pure love so deeply in my heart that I may never forget Thee or be separated from Thee.
I beseech Thee, through Thine infinite Goodness, grant that my name be engraved upon Thy Heart, for in this I place all my happiness and all my glory, to live and to die as one of Thy devoted servants.

Amen.
. -- St. Margaret Mary Alacoque

A Blessed All Saints and All Souls!

Today, November 1st, we commemorate all the Righteous and Just who have left this world and continue to pray for us in Heaven. All you Holy Saints, pray for us!


We ask for special intercession of All the Saints to pray for the Poor Souls in Purgatory, whose souls we will especially pray for tomorrow on the Feast of All Souls.
All you Holy Saints, pray for us!
