One of the distressing effects of the current global pandemic has been the inability of believers to gather as a community for prayer and worship. Fortunately, there have been successful efforts to “gather” while in our own homes through the use of social media. Redemptorist Missionaries of the Baltimore Province will join these efforts through an online mission with the theme: “A Time for . . . ”
Some of the reflections we will offer are:
• A time for prayer • A time for mercy • A time for Mary
and several others that draw from the deep well of our Catholic Christian faith tradition. Our hope is that hearing the Good News during this time of crisis will nourish our faith, inspire hope, and encourage us to love.
The Mission will begin on Monday, March 30th, and will conclude on Wednesday, April 8th. To join us, “like” and “follow” the Redemptorist Facebook Page (The Redemptorists) and on the day of the mission, around 10am, you will receive a notification that a live “watch party” has begun with an invitation to join. Please feel free to share your prayer requests in the chat, where a Redemptorist missionary will be present and praying for all who join us and, indeed, for the whole world.
You can also share this invitation with those who are not on Facebook with the following link:

Blessing to all, and May Our Mother of Perpetual Help intercede for and watch over us!
In the Spirit of the Redeemer,
