The Holy Hour is a liturgy (a set of prayers), intended to be observed in a Church in front of the blessed sacrament.

The Holy Hour– Extract No. 7

The Blessed Mother’s Canticle
"The Magnificat"

My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord, and my spirit rejoices in God, my saviour; for He has looked upon the lowliness of His handmaid.

From now on all generations shall call me Blessed, for the Almighty has done great things for me.

Holy is His Name, and His mercy is on His faithful from generation to generation.

He shows mighty deeds with His Arm: He scatters the proud of heart, He throws down the mighty from their thrones, and raises the lowly to high places.

He fills the hungry with good things, while the rich he sends away empty.

He helps Israel, His servant, ever mindful of His Mercy, as He had promised our fathers, in favor of Abraham and his descendants forever.

Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.

The Writings of Katya Rivas

The Great Crusade of Love and Mercy

Each year as an part of an observance of Lent Scoop.co.nz publishes a serialisation of Katya Rivas's book "The Passion".

Katya Rivas's work was the subject of a documentary made in 1999 by Australian's Ron Tesoriero and Mike Willissee called "Signs from God" ( read a review here ). In the same year the then Bishop of Buenos Aires Jorge Bergoglio - now Pope Francis - requested a scientific investigation of a remarkable and unexplained phenomena involving a discarded host which had started to bleed. In 2013 Ron Tesoriero published a book "Unseen : New Evidence" which addresses what happened with this investigation and its implications for the quest to discover the origin of life.
