EIGHTEENTH SUNDAY ORDINARY TIME - August 01, 2020
Draw near to your servants, O Lord, and answer their prayers with unceasing kindness,
that, for those who glory in you as their Creator and guide,
you may restore what you have created and keep safe what you have restored.
Through our Lord Jesus Christ, you Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, for ever and ever.

AUGUST IS DEVOTED TO THE IMMACULATE HEART OF MARY
The main difference between the devotions to the hearts of Jesus and Mary is that the one
concerned with Jesus emphasizes his divine heart as being full of love for mankind, but with this love for the most part being ignored or rejected. Devotion to Mary's heart is essentially concerned with the love that her heart has for Jesus, for God. Therefore, it is not an end in itself, so the love of her heart is meant to be a model for the way we should love God. The fact that her heart is immaculate, that is sinless, means that she is the only fully human person who is able to really love God in the way that he should be loved.
