St Philip Neri in the 16th century would gather those each day who were desirous of seeking Christian perfection. He would read from a spiritual book and then discourse on the meaning of what was read. This podcast (and the nightly prayer group from which it springs) seeks to carry on St Philip’s method of helping people become holy, even saints, in their own homes.

What are some good thoughts at the moment of Communion and then after receiving?
The second and third sections of Chapter 54 of the Spiritual Combat give advice on what to be praying about just before receiving Communion, and then in our time after communion.
Last episode we read about various ways to prepare for Holy Communion.
-
Cleanse ourselves: if we have committed a mortal sin, let us go to confession.
-
Offer Ourselves: let us offer all our faculties and all the good we have done to the Lord in response to his great gift. He is offering us all that He is and all that He has done for us.
-
Meditate: Let us think over, ponder, consider, meditate on the fact that Christ has an ardent desire to join himself with us to help us in the spiritual combat. He wants to help us overcome our sins.
