July: Month of the Most Precious Blood of Our Lord
As we begin the month of July during which it is traditional to focus devotion on the Most Precious Blood of Our Lord Jesus Christ, it is worthwhile reading the Apostolic Letter of St John XXIII from 1960:
Unlimited is the effectiveness of the God-Man’s Blood — just as unlimited as the love that impelled him to pour it out for us, first at his circumcision eight days after birth, and more profusely later on in his agony in the garden,[12] in his scourging and crowning with thorns, in his climb to Calvary and crucifixion, and finally from out that great wide wound in his side which symbolizes the divine Blood cascading down into all the Church’s sacraments.

Your Prayers are requested
For the retired South African Archbishop Desmond Tutu, who has cancelled his attendance in Rome at a meeting of Nobel Laureates due to his undergoing new treatment for prostate cancer.
Archbishop Tutu works so hard, even at the age of 83, to promote the message of forgiveness that the late President Nelson Mandela promoted so eloquently and humbly following his release from prison. He works tirelessly to promote forgiveness, justice, peace and equality and we pray that he may continue this work for many years to come.
Saint Michael the Archangel and Saint Luke, Patron of Physicians, pray for him.
