annual per capita donation to the region, we also had the expense of our Jubilee celebration. Contributions can be made to our

Common Fund basket at our meetings, or mailed to our treasurer – Lori Moran, 103 Bay Point, Peachtree City, GA 30269. Make

checks payable to “Immaculate Conception Fraternity.” This is our official account name.

Raymond Lull was born in Palma in the Balearic Islands about the year 1235. Divesting himself of all wordly possessions he

joined the Third Order as tradition reports. In his zeal for souls he was instrumental in founding a college to give suitable

training for missionaries. Because of his writing on almost all branches of human learning he was called Enlightened Doctor.

After his arrival in Bougie in Africa he suffered imprisonment and was almost stoned to death. Put on board a ship half dead

he reached Majorca and died on June 29, 1315.

Pope Benedict XVI has declared a “Year for Priests” beginning with the Solemnity of the Sacred Heart of Jesus on June 19, 2009.

The year will conclude in Rome with an international gathering of priests with the Holy Father on June 19, 2010.

With the announcement of this Year for Priests, the Pope has declared St. John Vianney the Universal Patron of Priests on

the occasion of the 150th anniversary of the death of the Curé d’Ars. At http://www.usccb.org/yearforpriests/index.shtml, you will

find a number of resources to aid your parish’s celebration of the year for priests. There is also information regarding events for priests

that will occur throughout the Year for Priests.

Please pray for our priests that they might always be faithful to their sacred calling.

Dear friends, the last word I wish to leave you with is the same word that the Risen Jesus consigned to his disciples:

"Go!" (cf. Mt 28: 19); Mk 16: 15). Go, and continue to "repair the house" of the Lord Jesus Christ, his Church. A

few days ago the earthquake that struck the Abruzzo seriously damaged many churches and you of Assisi know well

to renew yourselves in the spirit of the Gospel you will continue to help the Pastors of the Church to make her face

as Christ's Bride ever more beautiful. This is what the Pope expects of you, today, as at the outset. Thank you for

coming! Go now and take the peace and love of Jesus Christ the Saviour to all. MayMary Immaculate, "the Virgin

made Church" (cf. Greeting to the Blessed Virgin Mary, 1: FF, 259), always go with you. And may the Apostolic

Blessing which I warmly impart to all of you present here and to the entire Franciscan Family sustain you always.
