St. Francis' Prayer Before the Crucifix

Most High
glorious God,
enlighten the darkness
of my heart.
Give me
right faith,
sure hope
and perfect charity.
Fill me with understanding
and knowledge
that I may fulfill
your command.

I think in the Latin Church, in addition to today being the feast day of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross, Lesser Lent begins. I think Lesser Lent is mostly celebrated by Monks, and involves fasting, prayer, etc, and stays in effect until Great Lent. Though I can't figure out how or why the Advent season doesn't suspend Lesser Lent?

Mmmm. September 13.

September 14 is thankfully another day we all celebrate together, The Exaltation of The Cross.
