J.M.J. Today is the last day of the liturgical year. How fitting that we conclude it with Mary.
The morning Mass on Saturday, unless there is a Solemnity, Feast or Obligatory Memorial, fittingly uses the Collection of Masses of the Blessed Virgin Mary, published during the Pontificate of Saint John Paul II (1978-2005).
Would that the Saturday morning Mass return to our Parishes!
We desperately need more veneration of the sinless Ever-Virgin, not less.
Of the twenty-nine seminarians listed in the Directory 2015-2016 of the Diocese of Sioux Falls, fifteen are from Parishes or Newman Centers where there is a Saturday morning Mass.
Let us pray that the Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception, a Holy Day of Obligation, which is to be commemorated in little more than a week, is the catalyst for renewed love, devotion and service of the Mediatrix of All Graces.
Thank You, Mother, for all that Your Divine Son through You did for us this Year of Grace 2015.
