Each month has an illustration in color; these are various religious themes painted in our Monastery: scenes from the Old and New Testaments and other pious paintings. Pictures of the Saint for each day are also featured. May this calendar be an instrument of edification and a blessing for the homes and businesses where it is displayed.
To attract the Holy Spirit, let us imitate the Apostles and disciples of Jesus and withdraw into the Cenacle with Mary. The Cenacle signifies a life of recollection, prayers, holy desires. It informs us that we ought to live united to the Mother of our Saviour in a constant heart-to-heart, to think, love and act like Her, to mingle our supplications with Hers and touch the Heart of God.
A novena with a prayer for each day requesting one of the Gifts of the Holy Ghost, concluding on the ninth day with a prayer to receive them through the intercession of Mary, His cherished Spouse. Devotional, instructive, inspirational!
