JULY IS THE MONTH DEDICATED TO
THE PRECIOUS BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST

“This blood, when worthily received, drives away demons and puts them at a distance from us, and even summons to us angels and the Lord of angels. This blood, poured out in abundance, has washed the whole world clean. This is the price of the world; by it Christ purchased the Church.”
~ St. John Chrysostom

EL MES DE JULIO ES DEDICADO A
LA PRECIOSA SANGRE DE JESUCRISTO

“Esta sangre, dignamente recibida, ahuyenta a los demonios y los aleja de nosotros, e incluso convoca a los ángeles y al Señor de los ángeles. Esta sangre, derramada en abundancia, ha purificado al mundo entero. Este es el precio del mundo; con ella, Cristo compró a la Iglesia.”
~ San Juan Crisóstomo

For formation in discernment

Let us pray that we might again learn how to discern, to know how to choose paths of life, and reject everything that leads us away from Christ and the Gospel.
