恭讀聖瑪竇福音 8:1-4
當耶穌從山上下來,有許多群眾跟隨他。看,有一個癩病人前來叩拜耶穌說:「主!你若願意,就能潔淨我。」耶穌就伸手撫摸他說:「我願意,你潔淨了吧!」他的癩病立刻就潔淨了。耶穌對他說:「小心,不要對任何人說!但去叫司祭檢驗你,獻上梅瑟所規定的禮物,給他們當做證據。」
—基督的福音。

A Reading from the Holy Gospel according to Matthew 8:1-4
1 When he came down from the mountain, great crowds followed him; 2 and behold, a leper came to him and knelt before him, saying, “Lord, if you will, you can make me clean.” 3 And he stretched out his hand and touched him, saying, “I will; be clean.” And immediately his leprosy was cleansed. 4 And Jesus said to him, “See that you say nothing to any one; but go, show yourself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a proof to the people.”
—The Gospel of the Lord.

收到Andrew Yeung自默主哥耶發出的電郵,得知最近有大量的意大利人到默主哥耶朝聖,原因是經醫生診斷那患有癌病只有五天生命的意大利籍兩歲小童,由父母帶到默主哥耶將他交在聖母手中後,小童奇蹟地痊癒,使同時期到那地找尋證據以駁斥聖母顯現的電視新聞記者Paolo Brosio 皈依;由於Paolo在傳媒廣泛報導,吸引不少人踏足此靈聖之地!
我的媽媽告訴我她數月前大病了一場,當時被送到醫院。在她矇矓中,她被帶到一個很黑的房,那裡很冷、很黑和很怕人;不久有位修女帶她脫離黑暗、寒冷和懼怕,把她帶到光明中;之後她好轉了,也返回老人院。我告訴她那位不是修女,是聖母! 在媽媽重病時,有不少人為她祈禱! 聖母媽媽接納了兄弟姊妹們的轉求! 我提她在危難痛苦中,定必要求聖母媽媽幫助﹗
在此默主哥耶聖母顯現開始第三十個年頭的第一天,感謝聖母多年來的苦口婆心和細語叮嚀,並默默地照顧她鍾愛的子女,引導迷途者回歸父家。但求聖母媽媽繼續在我們臨終時,為我們罪人祈求天主。亞孟﹗
