Deus, qui beatissimum Confessorem tuum Benedictum omnium iustorum spiritu replere dignatus es: concede nobis famulis tuis, eius Solemnitatem celebrantibus; ut, eiusdem spiritu repleti, quod te donante promisimus, fideliter adimpleamus. Per Dominum nostum.

The Gimong of the Christ of the Desert Monastery offered the 2nd Day of Novena to Right Reverend Abbot Santos R. Rabang.

BENEDICITE!

For those who have extended their sympathy, condolences and most especially, prayers, the whole of Christ of the Desert Monastery, together with Abbot Rabang's immediate family, wants to give our sincerest thanks. We cannot thank you enough. The Abbot, before he died, asked us only one thing, and It's a ver simple thing..."When I die, a simple yet sincere "Hail Mary", I would appreciate". Almost all of you prayed more than one.


In his last Faith Education, he asked us all to rate ourselves on our ralationship with Christ... whatever our personal "grades" are, he urged us to make it higher and higher, that is closer and closer to Christ. Do this wherever we go and whatever we do so THAT IN ALL THINGS, GOD MAY BE GLORIFIED.

The Abbot's here.
