The Church celebrates the 8th Sunday in Ordinary Time this Sunday, February 27th. The Episcopal Pastoral Commission for Liturgy of the National Conference of Bishops of Brazil (CNBB) offers the "Celebrate as a Family" guide, with the rite for the Sunday celebration of the Word of God.

At the Health and Peace Sanctuary, there are three times when masses are broadcast via... Padre Eustáquio Channel (Saturday at 5 pm and Sunday at 10 am and 7 pm) which we can attend, but living the dignity of the priestly people that our baptism conferred upon us. We can not only attend, but celebrate the Lord's Day with our families.

The Word that the liturgy addresses to the faithful next Sunday brings the warning of the apostle Paul: "in the Lord, our labors will not be in vain." And Jesus, in the Gospel, teaches that "every tree is recognized by its fruit.".

Families are advised to choose a suitable place in their homes to celebrate and pray together. “"Prepare your Bible with the text to be proclaimed, a vase with flowers, a crucifix, an image or icon of Our Lady, and a candle to be lit during the celebration."”, proposes the Commission for the Liturgy.
