A LETTR FROM THE ARCHDIOCESE�
COVID�19�
We all continue to monitor with concern the ques-
tions that are arising about the spread of the corona-
virus (COVID�19) in China and the urging that we
should prepare for its spread in communities across
the country. If and when it becomes necessary to
take preventative steps with regard to the celebration
of the liturgy, we will communicate that to you. �
�
STATUE ROOM AND SHRINES�
In an effort to keep the Statue Room and Shrine are-
as clean, we ask that you do not write personal mes-
sages, fold them up and place them in the crevices of
the statues, or leave novena pages or religious mail
that you do not want in these areas. At each of the
shrines there is a book for you to write your inten-
tions so that the community can pray for your and
their intentions as well.�
�
CATHOLIC RELIEF SERVICES�
Next week, our parish will take up The Catholic Re-
lief Services Collection (CRSC). Funds from this
collection provide food to the hungry, support dis-
placed refugees, and bring Christ’s love and mercy
to all people here and abroad. Next week, please give
generously to the CRSC and help Jesus in disguise.
Learn more about the collection at www.usccb.org/

On Prayer �
� See, my children, we are poor people who have
been taught to beg spiritually, and we do not beg. We
are sick people, to whom a cure has been promised, and
we do not ask for it. The good God does not require of
us fine prayers, but prayers which come from the bot-
tom of our heart.
� St. Ignatius was once travelling with several of
his companions; they each carried on their shoulders a
little bag, containing what was most necessary for them
on the journey. A good Christian, seeing that they were
fatigued, was interiorly excited to relieve them; he
asked them as a favor to let him help them to carry their
burdens. They yielded to his entreaties. When they had
arrived at the inn, this man who had followed them,
seeing that the Fathers knelt down at a little distance
from each other to pray, knelt down also. When the Fa-
thers rose again, they were astonished to see that this
man had remained prostrate all the time they were pray-
ing: they expressed to him their surprise, and asked him
what he had been doing. His answer edified them very
much, for he said: “I did nothing but say, Those who
pray so devoutly are saints: I am their beast of burden:
O Lord! I have the intention of doing what they do: I
say to You whatever they say.” These were afterwards
his ordinary words, and he arrived by means of this at a
sublime degree of prayer. Thus, my children, you see
that there is no one who cannot pray � and pray at all
times, and in all places; by night or by day; amid the
most severe labors, or in repose; in the country, at
home, in travelling. The good God is everywhere ready
to hear your prayers, provided you address them to Him
with faith and humility.
� �
On the Love of God
� “If you love Me, keep My Commandments.”
� Nothing is so common among Christians as to say,
“O my God; I love You,” and nothing more rare, perhaps,
than the love of the good God. Satisfied with making out-
ward acts of love, in which our poor heart often has no share,
we think we have fulfilled the whole of the
precept. An error, an illusion; for see, my
children, St. John says that we must not
love the good God in word, but in deed.
Our Lord Jesus Christ also says, “If anyone
love Me he will keep My Word.” If we
judge by this rule, there are very few Chris-
tians who truly love God, since there are so
few who keep His Commandments. Yet
nothing is more essential than the love of
God. It is the first of all virtues, a virtue so
necessary, that without it we shall never get
to Heaven; and it is in order to love God
that we are on the earth. Even if the good
God�did not command it, this feeling is so
natural to us, that our heart should be
drawn to it of its own accord.� TBC...�
