Morning Prayer - MONDAY, 1 Aug 2022

LISTEN | Morning Prayer - August 1, 2022 | Memorial of St. Alphonsus Liguori, Bishop and Doctor of the Church

"The past is no longer yours; the future is not yet in your power. You have only the present wherein to do good." - St. Alphonsus Liguori

St. Alphonsus de Liguori (1696-1787) was a great preacher of the Gospel to the poor. His charity and apostolic spirit led him to found the Congregation of the Most Holy Redeemer to carry on this work. He sent his Redemptorists, as our Lord did the Apostles, into the countryside and the market towns and villages, to announce the Kingdom of God. He became Bishop of Sant' Agata dei Goti, near Naples, and died at the age of ninety, in 1787. For his great works on Moral Theology, he has been declared a Doctor of the Church.
