Monday 22 Sept Day 7: The Coming of the Holy Spirit Intention: For reconciliation and the unity of all Christ's people and for increased faith Meditation The apostles all "joined in continuous prayer, together with several women, including Mary, the Mother of Jesus" (Acts 1:14). "On the Day of Pentecost they were all together in one place" (Acts 2:1). The Holy Spirit is the source of unity, and the author of prayer. In a remarkable way He inspired both Catholics and Anglicans, divided since the Reformation, to restore devotion and pilgrimage to Our Lady of Walsingham. Brought together by Our Lady, Christians grown here in faith and reconciliation. Prayer: Lord Jesus Christ, you gathered your apostles together in prayer with Mary, the Mother of Jesus, and you filled them with the Holy Spirit. Grant that through their prayers for us today we may all rejoice in reconciliation, and that Christians in Walsingham and everywhere may be one in heart and mind, and grow together in unity. Prayer to the Holy Spirit: Holy Spirit, soul of my soul, I adore you; enlighten, guide, strengthen and console me; tell me what I ought to do and command me to do it. I promise to be submissive in everything that you ask of me and to accept all that you permit to happen to me, only show me what is your will. (Cardinal Mercier) O God, our Father, through the Holy Spirit You prepared the body and soul of the glorious Virgin Mother, Mary, to be a fit dwelling place for Your Son. As we recall with joy her appearing at Walsingham, grant that through her motherly intercession we may be preserved from evil and given health of soul and body. This we ask through Christ our Lord. Amen. |
