The Eucharistic Miracles of the World
Saturday, October 23 and Sunday, October 24
(weather permitting)
10 AM - 4:00 PM
An International Exhibition Designed and created by Carlo Acutis
In the entire history of the Catholic Church, there have been numerous Eucharistic miracles approved by the Catholic Church as truly worthy of belief. The Vatican Eucharistic Miracles Photographic Exhibition faithfully recounts for us many well documented miraculous occurrences. Knowledge of these miracles strengthens our faith in Christ and His Church. They are visible proof of Jesus Christ’s Real Presence in the Holy Eucharist.
The Exhibit was created by Blessed Carlo Acutis, a 15 year old from Milan, Italy who was just Beatified on October 10, 2020.
Students of Mount St. Mary's University and National Shrine Grotto staff have put together a selection of 25 of these inspiring posters to share with our visitors.
This incredible exhibit will be available for viewing at the Grotto on October 23. We highly encourage you to come view the exhibit this as a way to celebrate the Year of the Eucharist.
ST. JOSEPH: Our Father in Faith Retreat Day
with Our Chaplain, Father Ted Trinko
Saturday, November 6
During this year in honor of St. Joseph, join us at the National Shrine Grotto for a day of reflection on the husband of the Mother of God. Mary would have loved her husband dearly and wants us to see him as our father just as she is our mother. By pondering what the Sacred Scriptures, Tradition, and the Church's Magisterium have to say about the Savior's foster-father, we will discover who this man of silence really was. His way of life speaks volumes to us about how we are to live as disciples of his son, Jesus Christ.
Schedule
Talk-10:00 a.m.
Adoration- 10:45 a.m.
Holy Mass-12:00 p.m.
Lunch- 1:00 p.m.
Talk- 1:45 p.m.

Cost including lunch: $20.00 per person/ $5.00 student rate

All Saints Day
Monday, November 1
Holy Mass, 11 a.m. in St. Mary's Glass Chapel
We will have relics present in the Chapel for veneration.
Today the Church celebrates all the saints: canonized or beatified, and the multitude of those who are in heaven enjoying the beatific vision that are only known to God. Centuries ago, November 1 was set as the day for commemorating all the Saints. We are all called to the same holiness as the Saints. We are all called to "follow in His footsteps and conform [our]selves to His image seeking the will of the Father in all things. [We] must devote [our]selves with all [our] being to the glory of God and the service of [our] neighbor. In this way, the holiness of the People of God will grow into an abundant harvest of good, as is admirably shown by the life of so many saints in Church history"
(Lumen Gentium, 40).
All Saint's Day Prayer
Almighty ever-living God, by whose gift we venerate in one celebration the merits of all the Saints, bestow on us, we pray, through the prayers of so many intercessors, an abundance of the reconciliation with you for which we earnestly long. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. R/. Amen
All Souls Day
Tuesday, November 3
Holy Mass, 11 a.m. in St. Mary's Glass Chapel
All Souls' Day is dedicated to remembering the faithful who have passed from earthly life to eternal life, praying for their souls, and celebrating their union with Christ.
Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.
Send to the National Shrine Grotto the names of the souls of your loved ones, your dearly departed, and they will be remembered at Mass on All Souls Day and throughout the month of November.
