May, (Month of Mary Prayer)
O Most Holy Virgin Mary, Queen of the most holy Rosary, you were pleased to
appear to the children of Fatima and reveal a glorious message. We implore you,
inspire in our hearts a fervent love for the recitation of the Rosary. By meditating
on the mysteries of the redemption that are recalled therein may we obtain the
graces and virtues that we ask, through the merits of Jesus Christ, our Lord and
Redeemer. Our Lady of Fatima, Pray for us!
This Month of May, Pray the Rosary with your family!

May 24- Pentecost Sunday: one of the most ancient feasts of the Church,
celebrated early enough to be mentioned in the Acts of the Apostles (20:16)
and St. Paul's First Letter to the Corinthians (16:8). When the Holy Spirit
descended upon the Apostles, they were granted the gifts of the Holy Spirit.
Those gifts helped them to fulfill their mission to preach the Gospel to all
nations. For us, too, those gifts are granted through our baptism infusing us with
sanctifying grace and the life of God in our souls guiding us to live a Christian life.
Prayer: Come Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful and kindle in them the fire of
your love. Send forth your Spirit and they shall be created. And You shall renew the
face of the earth.

24 De Maio – Domingo de Pentecostes: uma das mais antigas festas da
Igreja. Para nós católicos, o Dia de Pentecostes celebra a descida do
Espírito Santo sobre os apóstolos e seguidores de Cristo. Os discípulos
estavam reunidos em oração com a presença da Virgem Maria e em um
dado momento a Bíblia afirma que repousou sobre suas cabeças como se
fossem línguas de fogo e esta presença do Espírito Santo deu-lhes uma nova guinada
em suas vidas e sobretudo em seus ministérios. Para nós, esses dons são concedidos
através de nosso batismo infundindo-nos com a graça santificante em nossas almas
guiando-nos a viver uma vida cristã.
Oração: Vinde Espírito Santo, enchei os corações dos vossos fiéis e acendei neles o
fogo do Vosso Amor e enviai o Vosso Espírito e tudo será criado e renovareis a face da
terra.
