He prepares, He invites...

Once, St Teresa (of Avila) was overwhelmed with God's Goodness
and asked Our Lord, "How can I thank You?"  
Our Lord replied, "Attend one Mass."

 

"Our Lord knew well that we were too weak to walk courageously
along the road of life that is often very difficult.  So His prophet
who saw from afar all the treasures hidden in the Church
of Jesus Christ said, "Thou hast prepared a table before me,
against them that afflict me" (Psalm 23:5). 

The food of this table is Jesus Christ Himself,
His Divine Flesh, His precious Blood. 
It is He who prepares the feast and invites us to it."

St Madeleine Sophie Barat




RESPOND to the invitation of Jesus Christ Himself. 
Consider attending Holy Mass daily during the season of Lent. 
If this is already your routine - add a daily Holy Hour.
This year Lent begins Feb 14, 2018.
He has prepared the Table - and invited YOU!
