Today’s ✠Challoner Meditation
Dr Robert Wilson’s weekly Sunday sermon…
Carissimi: Today’s Mass; Sunday within the Octave of the Ascension

I will give him the Holy Ghost Who will make him blessed in this life and in the next. Riga quod est aridum! O my Jesus, I beseech Thee, give me the water of Thy love which will make me forget the earth, and live for Thee alone Who art the infinitely amiable One!
