A Blessed and Happy New Year!
Today marks the last day of the Christmas octave and the Solemnity of Mary, the Most Holy Mother of God.

Prayer for the Solemnity:
Father, source of light in every age, the virgin conceived and bore your Son who is called Wonderful God, Prince of Peace. May her prayer, the gift of a mother’s love, be your people’s joy through all ages. May her response, born of a humable heart, draw your Spirit to rest on your people. Grant this through Christ our Lord.
Amen.

At their November General Assembly, the U.S. bishops approved the consecration of the United States to the Sacred Heart of Jesus on the Solemnity of the Sacred Heart in June 2026, as part of the Church’s commemoration of the 250th anniversary of the United States.

The initiative will include prayer resources, a novena leading up to the solemnity, and opportunities for dioceses and parishes to engage the faithful through adoration and works of mercy.

Through this act of consecration, the bishops seek to renew devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and to recognize the kingship of Christ, perfecting the temporal order with the spirit of the Gospel.

St. Carlo Acutis and St. Pier Giorgio Frassati, pray for us.

Today, Pope Leo XIV canonized St. Carlo Acutis and St. Pier Giorgio Frassati at St. Peter’s Basilica.

Their devotion to the Eucharist, their service to those in need, and their joyful witness continue to inspire people of all ages.

These new saints continue to inspire young people and the whole Church. We give thanks to God for these new saints, shining examples of holiness for our time.

May their example guide us closer to Christ.
