Our Lady of the Cenacle

The Mission presently worships at St. Thomas the Apostle Catholic Church and other locations while raising funds and praying for its own church property. The prayer titled "Our Lady of the Cenacle" (for insight into the historic meaning of the "Cenacle," see, e.g., here, here, and Acts 1:14) has been adopted by the Mission and is regularly prayed for furtherance of this intention:

Most holy Virgin of the Cenacle, Our Mother, Mary Immaculate obtain for us, we humbly pray, the gifts of the Holy Spirit, that we may live in charity and persevere with one accord in prayer, under thy guidance and teaching, to the greater glory of God, and that we may labor both by word and work for the salvation of souls and may deserve to enter into everlasting life.

Graciously be near us, O our Lady of the Cenacle, in our present needs, and succor us by they power that Almighty God may be pleased to grant us, through thy pleading, the favor for which we earnestly pray. Amen.
