Celebrating the Feast of Saint Josemaría in Southeast Asia 2010

Masses to commemorate the feast of Saint Josemaría on June 26th will be celebrated in some cities of Southeast Asia. Below is a list of scheduled Masses.

“I assure you, my sons and daughters, that when a Christian carries out with love the most insignificant everyday action, that action overflows with the transcendence of God. That is why I have told you repeatedly… that the Christian vocation consists of making heroic verse out of the prose of each day. Heaven and earth seem to merge, my sons and daughters, on the horizon. But where they really meet is in your hearts, when you sanctify your everyday lives.” St Josemaría Escrivá, Homily, 8 October 1967.

There will be Masses celebrated in the following cities of Southeast Asia in honour of St Josemaría. Below is a list of the dates and times for each city. Priests will be available for the Sacrament of Reconciliation before the Mass begins.
