DON’T GO BACK TO THE VILLAGE.
In Mark 8, Jesus led a blind man away from the village before restoring his sight. After the miracle, He warned him: “Don’t go back into the village.”
Sometimes, God needs to shift your surroundings before He can transform your perspective. Once you receive that fresh vision, it’s crucial not to slip back into old places, outdated mindsets, or toxic habits—and that includes bad friends.
Some locations were part of your journey, but they don’t define your future. The village might feel comfortable, but just because it’s familiar doesn’t mean it’s beneficial.
Your past is behind you, and your purpose lies ahead. So don’t look back. Keep moving forward.

Morning Prayer for Healing
Dear Lord Jesus, thank You for blessing us with this new day. Through Mary and all the saints, please come close to those who are sick and their caregivers. Shower them with Your healing mercy for their body, mind, and spirit.
“He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.” — Psalm 147:3
“He sent forth his word and healed them, saving them from the grave.” — Psalm 107:20.
Sacred Heart of Jesus, soothe every fear and restore every hope. Mary, Health of the Sick, we ask for your prayers.
Lord, guide us through every challenge and help us place our trust in Your unwavering love.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. #𝐂𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐜𝐅𝐚𝐢𝐭𝐡

St. Faustina

Eternal Father, I offer You the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Your Dearly Beloved Son, Our Lord, Jesus Christ, in atonement for our sins and those of the whole world.

For the sake of His sorrowful Passion, have mercy on us and on the whole world.
I trust in you

Holy God, Holy Mighty One, Holy Immortal One, have mercy on us and on the whole world.
May lord Jesus turn all your troubles around as the Jordan turned back on its course, through his divine mercy.
Psalm 114 Latin: In exitu Israel de Aegypto.
Amen.

WHY HAVE A MASS OFFERED?

Having a Mass offered is a beautiful way to entrust someone—or a particular intention—to God.

The Mass is the Church’s most profound prayer. In the Eucharist, we participate in Christ’s one, perfect sacrifice. As St. John Paul II wrote, “the sacrifice of Christ and the sacrifice of the Eucharist are one single sacrifice.”

WHOM CAN A MASS BE OFFERED FOR?

Anyone, living or deceased.

Canon 901 states:

“A priest is free to apply the Mass for anyone, living or dead.”

A Mass can be offered for the sick, for family and friends, in thanksgiving, for guidance, a particular need, conversion, or in memory of someone who has died.

IS THERE A CHARGE?

The Mass is not something that can be bought, and God’s grace is not for sale.

Canon 945 allows a priest to accept an offering for a particular Mass intention, while also encouraging priests to celebrate Mass for those in need even when no offering is received.

So, if you cannot make an offering, please do not let that stop you from requesting a Mass.

WHAT IS THE OFFERING FOR?

The offering is not a fee for the Mass. Canon 946 explains that it contributes to the good of the Church and supports its ministers and works. Canon 947 states that “any appearance of trading or trafficking” is to be entirely excluded.

The Mass is God’s gift; the offering is a way to support and participate in the life of the Church.

WHEN SHOULD I HAVE A MASS OFFERED?

You don’t need to wait for a special occasion. You can request a Mass for healing, thanksgiving, guidance, a special blessing, a particular need, or in memory of someone who has died.

HOW DO I REQUEST A MASS?

Contact the parish office or speak with a priest. Give the name of the person or your intention, and mention a preferred date if you have one.

Give someone the beautiful gift of prayer. Have a Mass offered for them.
