I feel that I say that each month. There is so much new information to read about the saints and our catholic faith. It is often overwhelming and a bit challenging to keep up. There are notable feasts during the month of September to help us achieve an intimate relationship with our Lord, Jesus Christ; they are as follows:
- St. Gregory the Great
- St. Teresa of Calcutta (Mother Teresa), foundress of the Missionaries of Charity order
- St. Peter Claver
- St. John Chrysostom
- St. Matthew, the apostle
- St. Pio of Pietrelcina who received the signs of the stigmata
- St. Vincent de Paul
- The Archangels–St. Michael, St. Gabriel & St. Raphael
Wow! However, let us not forget the most important events of the month of September, on which dates you should make every effort possible to go to mass:
- The Nativity of the Blessed Virgin Mary on September 8
- The Most Holy Name of Mary on September 12
- The Exaltation of the Holy Cross on September 14
- Our Lady of Sorrows on September 15
Remember to participate in the First Friday adoration. Try not to skip this one. Enjoy your month of September.
