St Philomena Devotions at MQP Friday 8/11 after 6:15am & 8am Masses

St Philomena truly is the saint for our times.  She was called "the wonder worker" by St John Vianney and "the princess of heaven" by Padre Pio.  St Damien of Molokai, the missionary priest who cared for the lepers, was so devoted to St Philomena that he named his chapel after her.  Mother Cabrini always carried a small statute of St Philomena on her journeys.  She was beloved by many more of our saints and great popes including Pope Pius X. And so, the Diocese of Cleveland is tremendously blessed this Friday, August 11 to have a parish, Mary Queen of Peace, celebrating this great saint with special devotions after Mass.  These devotion to our beloved Wonderworker will include the Miraculous prayer of St Philomena, the Chaplet of St Philomena, the Novena of St Philomena, and a blessing with the oil of St Philomena.  These devotions will take place after both the 6:15 am Traditional Latin Mass and the 8am Novus Ordo Mass.  The heroic Father Brown has done it again.
