I hope you’re enjoying the tour of my little oratory. Today is the feast of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, which turns my attention to this image of Our Lady of Humility. @thegnewsroom

Here’s an image of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus. You’ve often heard me speak about the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, especially during this month of June dedicated to Him, and especially because today is the feast of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus! This icon is dear to me. @thegnewsroom

Catholics always have statues in our chapels and churches. I’m very fond of the wood carving of St. Paul that I’d like to share with you today on the feast of St. Barnabas, a disciple of Paul. We can’t live the kind of life Jesus wants for us by ourselves! We need Him and the help of others. @thegnewsroom

Welcome to my little chapel! I moved from the archbishop’s residence about four months ago to a parish, and I’m privileged to have my own oratory here. Many of you have “prayer corners” – what a beautiful idea! – and this chapel is sort of my “prayer corner.” For the next week or so, I’d like to share with you some of the sacred spots in the chapel in my home. @thegnewsroom

During May and June, we’ve got all kinds of graduations. Congratulations to our graduates! We’re proud of you. I always say that we have our Catholic schools not just to get you a diploma, or into college, or a good job, but to get you into Heaven! @thegnewsroom

How was your Sunday Mass? I hope it was especially festive, because it happened to be the feast of Corpus Christi, the feast of the body and blood of Christ. One of the customs is the Corpus Christi procession, and here in New York many of our parishes process in the streets. We’re constantly in procession – we are carrying Him! @thegnewsroom

On the first Saturday of every month, we are invited in a particular way to think of our Blessed Mother. There are so many images of our lady, and that’s because she’s our mother. We see our mother from different angles throughout our life. Mater Admirabilis, pray for us! @thegnewsroom

You know that whenever we come to the First Friday, I’m going to talk to you about the beautiful tradition of the Church of Confession, Mass, and Holy Communion on the first Friday of every month! @thegnewsroom

The darkness of winter has passed, and it’s a good time for us to remember that Jesus Christ is the light of the world! @thegnewsroom

Every morning, I try to do two things: pray the divine office and read the paper! The world is filled with trial and trauma, and that’s why we need prayer. Newspaper and prayer. Not a bad way to begin the day. @thegnewsroom

“Sacred Heart of Jesus, I place all my trust in Thee.” You’ve heard me say before that’s one of my favorite prayers. I say it when I get up in the morning, and He never lets me down. I bring that up because it’s June 1stand we’re starting the month of the Sacred Heart. @thegnewsroom

We’re wrapping up the month of May, the month of our Blessed Mother. May is also a month of anniversaries! When we thank almighty God for the blessings of the past, there’s a simple prayer we can say. @thegnewsroom

Today is the feast of Pope Saint Paul VI. Sometimes people ask me if I’ve ever met a saint – I think we all meet a lot of saints, but official saints, I’ve met a few. Every time I got to Rome, I visit the tomb of Pope Saint Paul VI. @thegnewsroom

I’d like to share with you a short prayer that’s perfect for Trinity Sunday. You know why I like it? It’s short, to the point, reminds us of the pivotal doctrine of our faith, and it doesn’t ask God for a darn thing! It simply praises Him. @thegnewsroom

One of the most powerful prayers in the Church’s arsenal is just three words: Come Holy Spirit! Use those three words when you don’t know what to say. The Holy Spirit brings us everything we need. @thegnewsroom

St. Philip Neri is called the second founder of the Church in Rome. When the practice of the faith began to deteriorate in Italy, he was one of those who perked it back up. He did it because he was a man of joy! He taught that it was fun to be Catholic. @thegnewsroom

I hope you had a great Pentecost Sunday! The Monday after Pentecost is the feast of Mary, Mother of the Church. Why? Because the apostles asked her to join them in prayer after the Ascension to ask for the gift of the Holy Spirit. She was there at the birth of the Church! @thegnewsroom

The generous people of New York came together to help Notre Dame rebuild. We often think of France of a secularized country, but as the president of France said to us, when Notre Dame was burning, all of France was on its knees in prayer. @thegnewsroom

It happens to be the 50th anniversary of ordination for my classmates back in the @archstl! I wasn’t able to be ordained with them because I was a student in Rome, but I still consider them my classmates, and they graciously consider me one of theirs. To my classmates home in St. Louis: I love you, I congratulate you, happy 50th, see you soon! @thegnewsroom

Tomorrow will be the feast of St. Rita of Cascia. I love her! She’s a very powerful saint, especially good for family problems. Every family has its difficulties – Rita really had it! If you find yourself with family difficulties, go to Jesus through St. Rita of Cascia. St. Rita of Cascia, pray for us! @thegnewsroom
