MONTH OF PRAYER FOR THOSE SUFFERING RELIGIOUS PERSECUTION

Because of the number of persecuted Christians in the world who are being denied their undamental rights, Bishop Serratelli has designated the month of August as a diocesan-wide Month of Prayers for Those Suffering Religious Persecution. In an attempt to support this intention, our parish will do the following: 1. Include this petition in the Prayers of the Faithful at all Masses. 2. Offer a votive Mass for the persecuted hristians” as often as possible at daily Masses during August. 3. Devote Eucharistic Adoration & Benediction August 7th to persecuted Christians. 4. Pray the rosary on first Saturday, August 1st for this intention. 5. Encourage parishioners to pray, sacrifice and perform acts of charity during August for our suffering brothers and sisters. 6. Pray for those suffering religious persecution daily
