LEARN HOW TO PRAY THE MASS WITH YOUR HEART: A virtual life-changing opportunity
The next Friendship Group meeting will be held on Thursday, October 19 at 7 p.m. Eastern Time via Zoom. Father Leland Thorpe, OMV will talk with us about the book A Biblical Way of Praying the Mass by Father Tim Gallagher, OMV and answer your questions.
To help you fully tap into the abundance of grace offered at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, Father Gallagher resurrects the teachings of Venerable Bruno Lanteri. A holy priest seeking to root himself in prayer during the turbulence of war and persecution in northern Italy, Venerable Bruno developed a biblical way of praying the Mass that transforms it into a true prayer of the heart.
Through a selection of biblical figures, he invites you to live each part of the Mass with these figures' sentiments and hearts. In these pages he shows you how to:
*Humbly seek forgiveness like the tax collector
*Give glory to God like the angels
*Listen to God's Word with the hunger of a disciple
*Profess the Faith with the courage of the martyrs
*Receive communion with the heart of a lover
*Go forth from the Mass with the zeal of an Apostle
To fruitfully pray the Mass from the heart is a gift of grace. The biblical way of praying the Mass method is a means to dispose your soul to receive this grace.
If you have ever attended Mass and desired that it more fully touch your heart, this book is for you.
If you haven't signed up for the Friendship Groups, here is the link: https://mailchi.mp/sophiainstitute/friendship-groups
Once you have signed up, you will receive updates, including the Zoom link and discussion questions, about a week prior to the meeting.
The book may be ordered at sophiainstitute.com For more information, please contact Mary Beth Bracy at: mbracy@sophiainstitute.com
