September 17, 2024 — Tuesday, Twenty-fourth Week in Ordinary Time — A great prophet has arisen in our midst and God has visited his people — Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke (Lk 7: 11-17)

Catechesis on the prayer of petition, in collaboration with Fr Mamiarisoa Modeste Randrianifahanana.
