The Blessed Sacrament.

We are all sinners. But God heals us with an
abundance of grace, mercy and tenderness.
~Pope Francis

All Saints' Day All Saints' Day is a celebration of all Christian saints, particularly those who have no special feast days of their own, in many Roman Catholic, Anglican and Protestant churches. In many western churches it is annually held November 1 and in many eastern churches it is celebrated on the first Sunday after Pentecost. It is also known as All Hallows Tide, All-Hallomas, or All Hallows' Day.


All Souls' Day
All Souls’ Day is a day of alms giving and
prayers for the dead. The intent is for the
living to assist those in purgatory. Many
western churches annually observe All
Souls’ Day on November 2 and many
eastern churches celebrate it prior to Lent
and the day before Pentecost.
Please Note All Catholics are to pray at least five decade of the rosary for the faithful departed and attend the holy mass.



MAY THE SOULS OF ALL THE FAITHFUL DEPARTED, THROUGH THE MERCY OF GOD REST IN PEACE AMEN.

A team from the United States assisted with
the first operation
Heart surgeries are now being performed at
the University College Hospital, UCH, Ibadan,
with the first one being on a 19-year-old
boy, on Monday.
The boy’s surgery, which lasted three hours,
was among the three slated for the
commencement of the operations.
It was done in collaboration with a team of
heart surgeons from the United States of
America.
Head of the medical team from the U.S., Paul
Davids, from Delaware, disclosed that they
had replaced the bad valves in the boy’s
heart.
He also confirmed that U.C.H was now well-
equipped to carry out heart surgeries.
Also speaking, the Chief Medical Director of
UCH, Tope Alonge, said the project would be
run in collaboration with the Cardiovascular
Institute, where Mr. Davids works.
A professor and head of the Department of
Paediatrics, Samuel Omokhodion, who led
the cardiovascular team from the UCH, said
the cost of the operations in Nigeria would
not be different from what is obtainable in
other developing countries of the world.
According to him, heart problems are
common among children and usually occur
from birth.

TODAY IS THE MEMORIAL OF ST. THERESA OF AVILA. DOCTOR, RELIGIOUS AND MARTYR.

St. Teresa of Jesus, virgin
St. Teresa (1515-1582) was born in Avila
and died in Alba, Spain. When only a child of
seven, she ran away from home in the hope
of being martyred by the Moors; in this way,
she said she could come to see God. At the
age of eighteen she joined the Carmelite
Order and chose Christ as her heavenly
Spouse. With the help of St. John of the Cross
she reformed most of the Carmelite
convents and founded new ones. She
reached the highest degree of prayer and
through prayer obtained such knowledge of
divine things that in 1970 Pope Paul VI
named her the first woman Doctor of the
Church.
St. Teresa of Jesus
St. Teresa of Jesus, honored
by the Church as the "seraphic
virgin," virgo seraphica, and
reformer of the Carmelite
Order, ranks first among
women for wisdom and
learning. She is called doctrix
mystica, doctor of mystical
theology; in a report to Pope
Paul V the Roman Rota
declared: "Teresa has been
given to the Church by God as
a teacher of the spiritual life. The mysteries
of the inner mystical life which the holy
Fathers propounded unsystematically and
without orderly sequence, she has
presented with unparalleled clarity." Her
writings are still the classic works on
mysticism, and from her all later teachers
have drawn, e.g., Francis de Sales, Alphonsus
Liguori. Characteristic of her mysticism is the
subjective-individualistic approach; there is
little integration with the liturgy and social
piety, and thus she reflects the spirit of the
sixteenth and following centuries.
Teresa was born at Avila, Spain, in the year
1515. At the age of seven she set out for
Africa to die for Christ, but was brought
back by her uncle. When she lost her mother
at twelve, she implored Mary for her
maternal protection. In 1533 she entered
the Carmelite Order; for eighteen years she
suffered physical pain and spiritual dryness.
Under divine inspiration and with the
approval of Pope Pius IV, she began the
work of reforming the Carmelite Order. In
spite of heavy opposition and constant
difficulties, she founded thirty-two reformed
convents.
Truly wonderful were the exterior and
interior manifestations of her mystical union
with God, especially during the last decade
of her life. These graces reached a climax
when her heart was transfixed
(transverberatio cordis), an event that is
commemorated in the Carmelite Order by a
special feast on August 27. She practiced
great devotion to the foster-father of Jesus,
whose cult was greatly furthered
throughout the Church through her efforts.
When dying she often repeated the words:
"Lord, I am a daughter of the Church!" Her
holy body rests upon the high altar of the
Carmelite church in Alba, Spain; her heart
with its mysterious wound is reserved in a
precious reliquary on the Epistle side of the
altar.
St. Teresa composed the following well-
known lines:
Let nothing affright thee,
Nothing dismay thee.
All is passing,
God ever remains.
Patience obtains all.
Whoever possesses God
Cannot lack anything
God alone suffices.
—Excerpted from The Church's Year of
Grace, Pius Parsch.
