For many, as I have often told you and now tell you even in tears, conduct themselves as enemies of the cross of Christ. Their end is destruction. Their God is their stomach; their glory is in their “shame.” Their minds are occupied with earthly things. Phil 3:17-4:1
(1) A Pastoral Letter from Bishop Philip Egan (Bishop of Portsmouth)
“The churches of Italy were kept open day and night for prayer and sacraments; Christians were asked to undertake a deep, personal renewal and conversion of life, with prayer, self-denial and charity. Above all, everyone was encouraged to recite the Rosary, to invoke the help of the Blessed Virgin Mary.”
