Intention of the Day
For an end to world hunger.
For an end to world hunger.
Today's Gospel
They ate as much as they wanted, and they collected seven basketfuls of the scraps left over.
Mark 8:1-10
Breaking Open The Word
Scholastica and Benedict fed each other with the Word of God, an example we could all imitate—and the leftovers will no doubt feed others!
Taken from: Give Us This Day
For an end to world hunger.
Marist Source
By relating to young people in a Marial manner, we become the face of Mary to them.
For an end to world hunger.
To Ponder
'Nothing to eat'- try a day of 'eating', being nurtured by mystery and spirit - a 'no things' fast!
Where has the Spirit drawn you in today's prayer?
Closing Prayer
All Loving God
Cultivate in us a spirituality that flows out of Marian simplicity, humility and modesty.
Release in us wellsprings of refreshment, inspiration and excitement for your work in which we share.
Help us set our gaze on those people and places most in need of Christlife,
Impel us to respond together,
And lead us to be in communion with one another, and with you.
Like Mary, we listen for your invitation,
Like Mary, we set out joyfully and in haste to the hill country of the lives of young people,
Like Mary, we build communities in ways that are Christ-centred.
All Loving God, come and live in our hearts.
Amen
