Saturday, July 1, 2017:(St. Junipero Serra, 1st Saturday)

Jesus said: “My people, in today’s readings you see how important it is to have faith in My power to do the impossible. I promised Abraham that he would be a father of many nations, and his descendants would be as numerous as the stars in the sky. I waited until Sarah was beyond her childbearing years to have Isaac to show My miraculous power. In the Gospel I met a centurion and he requested that I heal his sick servant from a distance. He amazed Me with his faith when he said: (Matt. 8:8) ‘Lord, I am not worthy that Thou should come under my roof; but only say the word, and my servant will be healed.’ This quotation is recited right before Holy Communion is given out during the Mass. Today is first Saturday, and My Blessed Mother also had faith that she could be the Mother of God.”
