At the heart of the Mosaic social laws, we hear God’s expectation for compassion, especially to the most vulnerable among us. Is compassion a virtue that comes easily to you?

SECOND Reading

Paul offers a prayer of thanksgiving for the faith of the Thessalonian community members who are seen as role models for believers throughout the regions of Macedonia and Achaia. Is there someone in your life who models the Faith well?

PRAYER FOR SPIRITUAL COMMUNION



A prayer for those who may wish to, but are unable to receive Communion, for whatever reason.

My Jesus, I believe that You are present in the Most Holy Sacrament.

I love You above all things, and I desire to receive You into my soul.

Since I cannot at this moment receive You sacramentally, come at least spiritually into my heart. I embrace You as if You were already there and unite myself wholly to You. Never permit me to be separated from You.

Amen
