Grow in Virtue: Prayer
Ave Maria! Let's pray for the grace to imitate Mary's virtue of Unceasing Prayer! Join us for short daily reflections and a Hail Mary in petition for this virtue.
Month #3: Unceasing Prayer
May 25 - June 24
Prayer can be defined as communication with God. There is no better example in the world, aside from Jesus, with respect to a life of constant prayer than that of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Scripture tells us, 'Mary kept all these things, pondering them in her heart' (Luke 2:19). Perpetually, she thought of God in her mind and loved Him with all her heart; she maintained constant communication with the Blessed Trinity. The devil of laziness can attack us all. May Our Lady inspire us to be constant, fervent, and faithful in prayer! Indeed, prayer is the key to our salvation. What air is to the lungs, prayer is to the soul! Fr. Ed Broom
Hello Friends! During this retreat, we will pray for the grace to grow in the virtue of Prayer by reflecting on a small quote or bible verse. At the end of each reflection, we simply ask Our Lady to make us more like her by praying a Hail Mary for an increase in the virtue of Prayer.
The quotes/images for this retreat run parallel to the 9-month Impossible Novena; however, the Impossible Novena Retreat contains the Impossible Novena prayer, rather than the prayer for a specific virtue. This means that you may join one, some, many, or even ALL of our retreats! We are here to meet you wherever you are in your prayer life and spiritual journey in a way that is simple yet meaningful.
Growing in virtue takes not only time and training, but tons of grace. Together, let's take baby steps to grow in holiness, so that we may find the path closest to Christ by following in the footsteps of Our Blessed Mother.
