July 13, 2025, Third Apparition in Fatima, Holy Rosary (Glorious Mysteries)


Listen Later

Friends of the Rosary,

Today, Sunday, the 13th, when we remember the third apparition of Fatima, the Gospel of Luke (St. Luke 10:25-37) tells the parable of the Good Samaritan, a powerful lesson about mercy toward those in need.

St. Augustine identifies the good Samaritan with our Lord, and the wounded man with Adam, the symbol of all fallen mankind.

Christ Jesus, seeing man’s wounds and moved by compassion and piety, comes down to earth to cure man's wounds, making them his own (Is 53:4; Mt 8:17; 1 Pet 2:24; 1 Jn 3:5).

St. John explained that God sent His only Son into the world so that we might live through Him, love one another, and see our sins expiated.

This parable leaves no doubt about who our neighbor is (anyone who needs our help) and how we should love them, not by having the right feelings, but by taking pity, being compassionate, and serving their spiritual or corporal needs.

Christians should never distance themselves from others' needs. One way to express love for one's neighbor is to perform the "works of mercy.”

There are fourteen such works, seven spiritual and seven corporal.

• To convert the sinner;
• To instruct the ignorant;
• To counsel the doubtful;
• To comfort the sorrowful;
• To bear wrongs patiently;
• To forgive injuries;
• To pray for the living and the dead.

The Corporal Works of Mercy are:

• To feed the hungry;
• To give drink to the thirsty;
• To clothe the naked;
• To shelter the homeless;
• To visit the sick;
• To visit the imprisoned;
• To bury the dead.

Ave Maria!
Jesus, I Trust In You!

Come, Holy Spirit, come!
To Jesus through Mary!

Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.
Please give us the grace to respond with joy!
