Let us pray that children suffering from incurable diseases and their families receive the necessary medical care and support, never losing strength and hope.

Today, we reflect on how true compassion requires noticing the needs of others and responding with both time and care, as shown in the life of Fr. Flavie Villanueva and in the way Jesus ministered to the crowds. Acts of genuine service flow from seeing people as human beings, not just numbers or obligations.

Today, we reflect on how truth-tellers are often silenced by fear and abuse of power, as seen in the story of Saint Paul Miki and the fate of John the Baptist. Both reveal that faithfulness to truth can threaten those who cling to authority without conscience.
Reflection Date: February 06, 2026

Today, we reflect on how faith moves forward through courage and simplicity, as seen in the life of Saint Agatha and the mission of the Twelve. Both stories show that God’s power works best when witnesses rely on His mighty providence.
Reflection Date: February 05, 2026

Today we reflect on how sacred spaces and sacred persons can be dishonored when reverence is lost. The closure of a chapel and the rejection of Jesus in his hometown reveal how disbelief and disrespect wound both faith and community.
Reflection Date: February 04, 2026

Today, we reflect on healing that happens when faith persists despite fear, delay, and public scrutiny. The story of Saint Blaise and the gospel of Mark reveal that trust in God can bring life where sickness and despair seem final.

Today, we echo the Presentation of the Lord, where a child carried into the Temple becomes the light for all nations. Like Simeon in the gospel, the story invites Asia to recognize salvation by lives offered humbly to God.

Let us pray that praying with the Word of God be nourishment for our lives and a source of hope in our communities, helping us to build a more fraternal and missionary Church.

Let us pray that Christians living in areas of war or conflict, especially in the Middle East, might be seeds of peace, reconciliation and hope.

Let us pray that those who are struggling with suicidal thoughts might find the support, care, and love they need in their community, and be open to the beauty of life.
