June 30 – Feast of the Most Holy Icon (Spoleto, Italy, 1185)

An immediate response obtained by praying the Rosary

I was on a three-day business trip for a work conference in Barcelona, Spain, a city I had never been to before. On Wednesday evening, we had two hours of free time, so I went to get an antigenic Covid test needed for the return flight the next day.

Afterwards, I walked around the Sagrada Familia Basilica, then in the direction of the restaurant where I had to go, while meditating on the luminous mysteries... At the end of the 4th mystery I realized that it was not Thursday but Wednesday, and that the glorious mysteries would have been more appropriate. Oh well... I continued on my way and at the 5th mystery, the Institution of the Eucharist, I asked that all her children would be able to attend daily Mass. Just as I finished this last decade of my Rosary, I found myself in front of a church. I went in: it was 7:35 pm, and a Mass was starting! So I quietly joined the congregation!

Mary was waiting for me there: she heard the prayer I had just said, and made it possible for me to attend daily mass, showing me that she hears us when we pray the Rosary. I had felt a little disoriented in a foreign city where I didn't speak the language, with work and travel worries on my mind. I had prayed that this trip would go well, but I had forgotten to ask to be able to attend Mass!

My guardian angel inspired me to make that prayer by directing my thoughts to the luminous mysteries!
