Do Little Things Well
PRAYER
“For me, prayer is a surge of the heart;
it is a simple look turned toward heaven, it is a cry of recognition and of love,
embracing both trial and joy.”
St Teresa of Lisieux

Adoration exalts the greatness of the Lord who made us and the almighty power of the Saviour who sets us free from evil
(Catechism of the Catholic Church 2628)
The Exposition and Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament is not only a very old devotion in our Church, but one that highlights the fundamental mystery of the Holy Eucharist that our Lord is truly present, body and blood, soul and divinity, in the Blessed Sacrament.
The priest places the Blessed Sacrament in a monstrance on the altar for adoration. At the end of the period of adoration, the priest then blesses the congregation with the Blessed Sacrament, making the sign of the cross.
This blessing is known as Benediction.
DIVINE MERCY DEVOTIONS
Suspended until further notice because of Covid-19
The message and devotion to Jesus as The Divine Mercy is based on the writings of Saint Faustina Kowalska, an uneducated Polish nun who, in obedience to her spiritual director, wrote a diary of about 600 pages recording the revelations she received about God’s mercy
The message of mercy is that God loves us - all of us - no matter how great our sins. He wants us to recognize that His mercy is greater than our sins, so that we will call upon Him with trust, receive His mercy, and let it flow through us to others.
The chaplet of Divine Mercy is prayed every Friday

PRAYING THE ROSARY

The rosary has been called the preparation for contemplation and the prayer of saints.

SHARING GOD'S WORD
Suspended until further notice because of Covid-19
Lectio Divina is a traditional Benedictine practice of Sharing God’s Word in scriptural reading, meditation and prayer and it is intended to promote communion with God and to increase the knowledge of God’s Word.
It does not treat Scripture as texts to be studied, but as the Living Word.
