형제 자매 여러분 기억하십시오. 우리 모두는 말과 행동으로 복음을 전하도록 부름 받았습니다.

Remember brothers and sisters, we are all called to evangelize both verbally and by our actions.

하느님은 주말 방문뿐만 아니라 그분의 자녀들을 완전히 보호하기를 원하십니다. 

“God wants full custody of His children, not just weekend visits.”

Antiphon: “I consider you a co-worker of God and a support of the weak members of His ineffable

Body.” (3 rd Letter to Agnes)


Reading:

As for the sick sisters, let the Abbess be strictly bound to inquire with diligence, by herself and through other sisters, what their illness requires, both by way of counsel as well as food and other necessities, and let her provide them charitably and kindly according to the resources of the place. Because everyone is bound to serve and provide for the sisters who are ill, let them do this as they would wish to be served if they were suffering from some illness. Let each one confidently manifest her needs to the other. For if a mother loves and cherishes her child according to the flesh, how much more diligently should a sister love and cherish her sister according to the Spirit. ~Form of Life of Clare of Assisi, Ch. 8

Antiphon: “I consider you a co-worker of God and a support of the weak members of His ineffable

Body.”



Let us Pray:

You Lord Jesus, went about doing good works and healing sickness and

infirmity of every kind. You commanded your disciples to care for the sick, to

pray for them, and to lay hands on them. In this litany, we entrust our sick

brothers and sisters to your tender and merciful care. While the current

COVID pandemic feels unprecedented, we trust in your plan for us and our

times. We are thankful for doctors, nurses, scientists and caregivers amidst

this pandemic and join our prayers and efforts to theirs. Grant us soon a

vaccine and a cure. Bring health, healing, and wholeness to those afflicted.

Keep our loved ones safe and secure. All this we ask in your holy Name.
