Sunday, May 29, is the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ—Corpus Christi. Devotion to the Holy Eucharist is one of the hallmarks of the Redemptorists, and our founder, St. Alphonsus, wrote a great deal about the Eucharist.

Join our novena in honor of Our Lady, starting June 27

| Every year the Redemptorists celebrate the feast day of Our Mother of Perpetual Help on June 27. But this year’s celebration will be extraordinary! That’s because we’re marking 150 years since Pope Pius IX entrusted Our Lady’s holy and miraculous icon to us and asked us to “make her known throughout the world.”
May we pray for you and yours during our novena of Masses this jubilee year? The Masses will be celebrated at the altar of our church in Rome, in front of the original icon of Our Mother of Perpetual Help. Click the link below to send us your prayer intentions and make a gift to help the poor.

| As part of our celebration of Our Mother of Perpetual Help this jubilee year, we’re planning a very special event in Washington, D.C., on September 17, and we hope you’ll join us. The festivities begin with the Perpetual Help novena and tours of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception, followed by Mass at 2:30, and a gala reception afterward on the adjacent Catholic University of America campus.
