2021 Masses Begin at Mother of Mercy Chapel

The Immaculate Heart of Our Lady,
The Immaculate Virgin, Patroness of AmericaThis chapel is recognized as the birthplace of the devotion to Our Lady, the Immaculate Virgin, Patroness of America (in short – Our Lady of America). Mass will be offered by Fr. Osman Ramos. The chapel has been allowed by Bishop Kevin Rhoades to offer the Holy Sacraments under the guidance of the local pastor and to promote this private devotion to Our Lady.  The Mass will also be live streamed.

The Mother of Mercy Foundation which owns the chapel is renovating it and the associated grounds. See the statue of Our Lady of America on display in the west wing of the chapel.

First Saturday Devotion

This Mass will be offered on the First Saturday of the month in keeping with The First Saturday Devotion to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. The devotion arose out of the apparitions of Our Lady of Fatima. It is in reparation for offenses against the Immaculate Heart.

Please see PatronessOfAmerica.org for more details.

(state your petitions)

“Saint Michael the Archangel, defend us in battle, be our protection against the wickedness and snares of the devil. May God rebuke him, we humbly pray; and do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly host, by the power of God, thrust into hell Satan and all the evil spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls." Amen

In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. Amen

St. Michael the Archangel is mentioned a few times in the Bible and is venerated as the ‘Prince of Angels.’ He is known for interceding for us for protection from evil and for healing. In Christian art, he is often depicted wearing armor, wielding a sward or spear and slaying a dragon, a serpent or satan.

More About St. Michael the Archangel

The Catholic church refers to Michael the Archangel as St. Michael even though he is an angel, and not a saint whose recognition resulted from canonization. He is believed to be the prince of all of God’s angels, and the protector of the church.

There were several instances when St. Michael is believed to have appeared in the Bible, among them: 

In the Book of Daniel, St. Michael is referenced as the “Great Prince and defender of your people”
• As a sword-wielding angel who introduced himself to Joshua just before the fall of Jericho, as commander of the army of the Lord.
• As the leader of the Angels who banished Satan and his minions according to the Book of Revelations
• As an Archangel in the Epistle of Jude
• In the Epistle to the Thessalonians, mention is made of an archangel who will announce the second coming of Christ. Though not identified, it is believed to be referring to St. Michael.

St. Michael is venerated as a healer, and protector of the Catholic Church. His feast day is celebrated on Sept. 29 but we are praying the novena in February.

St. Michael the Archangel is the patron saint of grocers, mariners, paratroopers, police, and sickness.

Never Say this About St. Joseph - Fr. Mark Goring

 

It's All About Love

My love has taken possession of your soul, and I want you to be confirmed in it. Bring your ear close to My Heart, forget everything else, and meditate upon My wondrous mercy. My love will give you the strength and courage you need in these matters. (Jesus to St. Faustina, Diary, 229)

I often felt the Passion of the Lord Jesus in my body, although this was imperceptible [to others], and I rejoiced in it because Jesus wanted it so. But this lasted for only a short time. These sufferings set my soul afire with love for God and for immortal souls. Love endures everything, love is stronger than death, love fears nothing... (Diary, 46)
