Little Way: Catholic Prayer

THE GALLERY — the Inner Room, Gospel-first “And it was heard that he was in the house.” — Mark 2:1 The Inner Room now opens on today’s place in the Gospel. Every scene is a door named for where it happened and in which book — Capharnaum · Mark 2, Cana · John 2, Tiberias · John 21 — and a door’s threshold shows the passage’s first words, cited, before anything else. • THE GOSPEL, PRAYED FROM INSIDE IT — a corridor of lit doors at the top of the hall: the Paralytic (free, always), the Wedding at Cana, the Shore Fire, the Sun and the Moon, the Morning Watch. Read the passage, then step inside it, carrying the people you pray for. • TODAY’S GOSPEL GROWS A DOOR — on days the Mass reading is one of the scenes, the daily Gospel offers the house it happened in: read the plaque, then pray it here. • THE DOVECOTE — a place in the Little Souls for those who keep a little time with God each day. Ten minutes, nothing vowed. Enter at the First Door’s close; your emblem, the bell for prayer, and Teresa’s four lines wait in the hall and in Settings. • THE SCHOOL OF MENTAL PRAYER, named under every Gospel door on Home and Interior — and, once every door is walked, the way back to any of them. • The Chapel’s Vigil now offers the Paralytic to those who carried others tonight, with the souls you prayed for on the mat; returning a prayer through the Inner Room carries the one who prayed for you straight in. • Tiberias has its plaque. The Over My Heart widget opens today’s Gospel. Small fixes to the Prayer Shield and the Home rows.
