A Beginning of A New Year





It is necessary to keep it a holy year with full purity and chastity. Let us start a new demeanor as St. Paul the Apostle said: 

Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; 
old things have passed away; behold, all things 
have become new.  Now all things are of 
God, who has reconciled us to Himself through 
Jesus Christ, and has given us the ministry of reconciliation.
(2 Corinthians 5:17-18) 
Isaiah the prophet said:

“The Spirit of the Lord God is upon Me,
Because the Lord has anointed Me
To preach good tidings to the poor;
He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted,
To proclaim liberty to the captives,
And the opening of the prison to those who are bound;
To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord,
And the day of vengeance of our God;
To comfort all who mourn.

(Isaiah 61:1-2)

David the prophet said: 

You crown the year with Your goodness,
And Your paths drip with abundance.

(psalms 65:11)

We ask the Lord to forgive us our sins and help us according to His will with the intercessions of our holy mother Saint Mary and all the Martyrs and saints.
Amen
