One of the characteristics of Jesus' prayer is its solitude.

September 1, 2024 — Twenty-second Sunday in Ordinary Time — The Father willed to give us birth by the word of truth that we may be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures — Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Mark (Mk 7: 1-8, 14-15, 21-23)

Prayer opens our hearts and souls to an openness with God. Catechesis on Jesus, a man of prayer, in collaboration with Fr Justolat Rafaralahimboa.
