Memorial of St. Maximilian Kolbe, Priest and Martyr

Morning Offering:

O Jesus, through the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I offer You my prayers, works, joys, and sufferings of this day in union with the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass throughout the world, for the salvation of souls, the reparation of sins, the reunion of all Christians, and in particular for the intentions of the Holy Father this month.  Amen

Holy Father’s Intention for August 2025: For mutual coexistence

Let us pray that societies where coexistence seems more difficult might not succumb to the temptation of confrontation for ethnic, political, religious, or ideological reasons.

Gospel Reading of the Day:  Matthew 18:21-19:1

Daily Prayer:

Merciful Lord, You remind me that forgiveness isn’t a one-time thing—it is something I need to keep doing. Please help me forgive from deep within, even when it is difficult and the pain remains. Let Your grace soften my pride and open my heart to healing. Teach me what real mercy looks like, like St. Maximilian Kolbe, who gave everything out of love. Now and always, lead me every step of the way. Amen
