Icon of Our Lady of Persecuted Christians at Annunciation of the Lord Parish, Ottawa, ON


Thanks to our Knights of Columbus, Council 2008, the Icon of Our Lady of Persecuted Christians will be present in our Church for veneration from Monday November 19th, to Sunday, November 25th. All are welcome to spend time with the Icon during the week. Prayer cards are available.




 
When I arrived at our Church for our Monday evening Prayer Meeting last evening around 7:10, I noticed the  beautiful icon was already installed in the Church and there were several parishioners from Nazareth Family Living  praying before Our Lord Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, so I stayed for a short time and prayed as well.  A young lady was singing and playing lovely worship music on the piano and Father Dan Dubroy was hearing confessions. It was all very beautiful

Our Prayer Meeting is every Monday at 7:30 so last night Joan our Leader suggested we pray silently in the Church with the Nazareth Group who had organized  this time of adoration . This is an opportunity you just don't want to pass up.

Thank you Lord for this very special time
