Cor jesu chapel 20th anniversary

On June 30 we celebrated the 20th anniversary of the Dedication of our Cor Jesu Chapel! The 12 dedication candles are lit for celebrating the anniversary to remind us that our faith is based on the 12 Apostles. We sang the beautiful Liturgy of the Hours for a Dedication of a Church. The opening prayer of the Mass for the Anniversary of the Dedication of a Church sums up our hearts' desires:

O God, who year by year renew for us the day when this your holy temple was consecrated, hear the prayers of your people and grant that in this place for you there may always be pure worship and for us, fullness of redemption. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, your Son, who lives and reigns with you in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever.
