Morning prayer with the Oblate family: Monday September 12th

With Mary Ryan

Today we join Mary Ryan in Sacred Heart Church, Kilburn once again for morning prayer.

Today we reflect on the gospel reading which features a centurion who has been told about Jesus and asks him to heal his servant who is sick. The humility of the centurion is profound. Jesus is moved by the humility of this man. He said ‘I tell you, not even in Israel have I found faith like this.’

We say similar words to the centurion during the consecration at mass; “Because I am not worthy to have you under my roof; and for this same reason I did not presume to come to you myself; but give the word and let my servant be cured.”

Thank you for joining us this morning.
