a note from our pastor
Many thanks to the Jolley Family and those who worked with them last weekend to resume our Annual Baby Shower to support the Friends of the Unborn in Quincy. Thank you to all those who contributed diapers, other gifts, cash, and gift cards. You make it possible for women facing challenging pregnancies to have the means to choose life for their unborn children!
Also last Sunday we had our own sacramental prelude to Pentecost as 44 of our parishioners in High School received the Sacrament of Confirmation, sealed with the Gift of the Holy Spirit, thanks to Helen Waring and those who work with her in preparing the Confirmation candidates, and Fr. Bob Connors our Vicar for the South Region of our Archdiocese who was the celebrant of the Sacrament of Confirmation. -

prayer to st. agatha
O Heavenly Father, who raised Agatha to the dignity of Sainthood,
we implore Your Divine Majesty by her intercession to give us health
of mind, body and soul. Free us from all those things which hold us
bound to this earth, and let our spirit, like hers, rise to your heavenly courts. Through Jesus Christ, Your Son, our Lord, who lives and reigns with You, forever. Amen. -

Prayer to end covid-19 byPope Francis
Pope Francis’s Prayer to Mary during Coronavirus Pandemic
O Mary, you always shine on our path as a sign of salvation and of hope. We entrust ourselves to you, Health of the Sick, who at the cross took part in Jesus’ pain, keeping your faith firm.
You, Salvation of Your People, know what we need, and we are sure you will provide so that, as in Cana of Galilee, we may return to joy and to feasting after this time of trial.
Help us, Mother of Divine Love, to conform to the will of the Father and to do as we are told by Jesus, who has taken upon himself our sufferings and carried our sorrows to lead us, through the cross, to the joy of the resurrection. Amen.
Under your protection, we seek refuge, Holy Mother of God. Do not disdain the entreaties of we who are in trial, but deliver us from every danger, O glorious and blessed Virgin. Amen.
