December 8th - Hour of Grace A full hour of prayer from noon - 1pm as requested by Our Lady during an apparition to Sister Pierina in 1947. Start the hour by reciting Psalm 51 three times. The rest of the hour is spent in prayer, meditation, adoration, etc. For details go to the link below. This is what Our Lady said about this hour of grace: "I come here to Montichiari because it is my wish to be appealed to and venerated as "Rosa Mystica". I wish people to celebrate each year on December 8th at noon the hour of grace for the whole world. With this exercise, one will receive numerous spiritual and bodily graces. Our Lord, my Divine Son Jesus, will be abundantly merciful so long as good men go on praying for their fellow men." "This Hour of Grace will produce great and numerous conversions. Hardened and cold hearts resembling this marble will be touched by divine Grace, and they will become faithful to Our Lord in loyal love." http://catholic-church.org/grace/marian/mystical-rose.htm
What a beautiful and wonderfully mystically Feast Day we will be celebrating tomorrow (well technically it's moved to Monday this year) of the Immaculate Conception of Our Blessed Mother! God's plan of Salvation - coming to us in the person of His Son, through the perfect vessel of Mary, who God allowed to be conceived without original sin. She brought Jesus to us over 2000 years ago and she continues to do so today. O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee
