August 3, 2013 With Blessed Father Alberione and With Father Tom

Saturday, August 3

OF THE DAY

First Saturday of the month—Mary, Queen of Apostles

Lv 25: 1-17

Mt 14: 1-13

The Eucharist is under the appearances of bread and wine: not only humble but also very meaningful (FSP 225)

From Father Tom: Why? Because bread = crushed kernels of wheat and wine = crushed grapes. We need not lose our natural dignity in everyday life-- much of what we do and say is fine-- but neither should we defend ourselves angrily or bluntly.

Please Pray for our Deceased: Sr M. Stella Zappalorto FSP (1944)
