The Pope has called for prayer and the Cenacolo Community has made a definitive response to that call by holding Thursday 14th August as a day of prayer in all Cenacolo Houses throughout the world. The request was that in every House Holy Mass should be celebrated and then, where possible, a visit to a Shrine should be undertaken for a further period of prayer. Ladyewell at Fernyhalgh was where the British Fraternity gathered for a period of adoration and prayer at the statue of Mary.
Cenacolo has 60 Houses on 3 continents, each have prayed at Mass for a cessation of violence in the Middle East, particularly in Gaza and especially for the Christian minority in Iraq who have been under constant attack for week by militant Islamists. They prayed too, for the continent of Africa suffering the Ebola outbreak remembering in a special way the Cenacolo House in Liberia.
