WHY LEARN THE LORD'S PRAYER IN LATIN?
PREPARE TO PRAY WITH THE UNIVERSAL CHURCH THIS SUMMER!
We began practicing the Our Father in Latin during Sunday Mass beginning, June 26, 2022, something that is desired by Holy Mother Church, so that when the faithful come together from different countries, they can sing together at least some of the parts of the Ordinary of the Mass in Latin, at the minimum, the Lord’s Prayer and the Creed. You can read more about this in the General Instruction of the Roman Missal (check out number 41), which is found in the beginning of every Roman Catholic altar missal and contains instructions for the Mass.
INCREASE PEACE WITH A PASTORAL VISIT
ANNUAL FAMILY BLESSINGS FROM A PRIEST
When Jesus sent leaders out into the villages he gave them authority to heal the sick and increase peace in homes (Luke 10). Priests still exercise this authority today for your benefit! According to the Book of Blessings, the annual visitation and blessing of families is one of the primary pastoral duties of priests and deacons. If it has been longer than a year since a clergyperson has been to your home and blessed your family, please contact Office@StJamesCC or 904-999-1423 to schedule a visit and receive your annual family blessing.
