23rd Sunday After Pentecost 2020
This week is the feast of the heroic pope, St. Martin, who defended the integrity of the Faith at the cost of much suffering and his own life. The Gospel for today gives the moving story of the woman, believed to be Veronica, who was cured by simply touching with faith the hem of Our Lord’s cloak. This month of November is dedicated to the Holy Souls in Purgatory and an opportune time to recall the teaching on indulgences and the sacrament of Penance. By this alone we can see how much God wants to forgive us our sins and we should run to Him in this sacrament. Practical instructions are given for confessions of necessity and devotion.
