The Oblate Family Morning Prayer: Tuesday 17th September 2024

With Fr Liam Griffin OMI

Good morning! Today we join Fr Liam Griffin OMI in Lourdes on our third day of our pilgrimage. Gospel | Luke ‘Jesus said to his disciples, “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life and what you will eat, or about your body and what you will wear. For life is more than food and the body more than clothing.”‘ Fr Liam reflects: ‘Y One thing that always strikes me about Lourdes is its simplicity. The simplicity of Bernadette. The simplicity of the message. And then at the same time, the prayerful atmosphere that we have. It is calm… But one of the great signs of Lourdes is water. During our mass today, the pilgrims will perform the same gestures that Bernadette performed on the 25th of February, 1858.”

Thanks for joining us this morning.
