- It was with great joy and gratitude that I offered the Eucharistic Sacrifice and made our sacred Consecration to Our Lady of Guadalupe with you, which was the culmination of our Nine-Month Novena.
- The crucifix is the great sign of our hope that we who die with Christ in baptism will also rise to everlasting life with Him. Seeing the cross, we rightly pray, in the words of the ancient Christian hymn, Vexilla Regis, “Ave Crux Spes Unica – Hail the Cross, Our Only Hope.”
