Oh, Lord of mercy and compassion, free us from the bonds of sin as we prepare for the coming feast of the resurrection. You are the Lord of light and liberty, by remaining in your Word, we may continually be reformed to be able to live in the light of your divine love and be able to serve you as true and faithful disciples. Today’s Gospel shows us Jesus continually offering us the grace of freedom from the slavery of sin. I believe my freedom is in penance and prayer. I ask this in Jesus' name. Amen.

The Grotto has been a special destination for millions of people throughout the world for generations. The good work of The Grotto has only been possible through the generous support of individuals and organizations who want to see The Grotto continue its mission of being a place of solitude, peace and prayer.

The cost of maintaining a 54-acre shrine, open daily, is immense. We need your help now more than ever.

Our Friends of The Grotto program is a wonderful way to help The Grotto and to enjoy special events and benefits.
