act of Spiritual communion

My Jesus,
I believe that You
are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.
I love You above all things,
and I desire to receive You into my soul.
Since I cannot at this moment
receive You sacramentally,
come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You.
Amen.
call to prayer

On Friday, March 27 at 12pm CST, Pope Francis presided at St. Peter's which concluded with an Urbi et orbi Blessing.

"Like the disciples, we will experience that with him on board there will be no shipwreck. Because this is God's strength: turning to the good everything that happens to us, even the bad things. He brings serenity into our storms, because with God life never dies." -Pope Francis

  Pastoral Reflection
```
Palm Sunday, April 05, 2020
Jesus gave Himself into our hands and suffered cruelly for our sins. In His passion and death, Jesus obeyed the will of the Father. We might prefer the kind of victory represented in the Palm Sunday procession- the crowds proclaiming the glory of God and honoring Jesus as a worldly king. The victory, however, was not won in that parade, nor does the adulation by great crowds of people constitute the redemption of our souls. It was won by Jesus cross and passion, through which our Lord did not take away death itself, but rather conquered it, emptied it of its power, and made it the means of our sharing His divine life. In this week we all need to meditate on these events and stand in awe of the love of God and what the Lord Jesus is willing to do for us, that we might live.
