17. Oktober
Hl. Margareta-Maria Alacoque, Jungfrau
Samstag nach dem 20. Sonntag nach Pfingsten
Am heutigen Tag feiert der traditionelle römische Kalender von 1962 das Fest der heiligen Margareta-Maria Alacoque, Jungfrau. Die 1647 in Burgund geborene Margareta-Maria trat in jungen Jahren dem Orden der Heimsuchung Mariens (Salesianerinnen) bei. Sie ist besonders bekannt für die ihr zuteil gewordenen Visionen, in denen ihr das Heiligste Herz Jesu erschien. Durch diese mystischen Erfahrungen wurde sie zur großen Verbreiterin der Herz-Jesu-Verehrung, die seitdem in der gesamten katholischen Kirche fest verankert ist. Trotz vieler Widerstände, auch innerhalb ihres eigenen Klosters, hielt sie standhaft am Auftrag fest, die Liebe und Barmherzigkeit Christi durch die Verehrung seines Herzens zu verkünden.
Das 19. und frühe 20. Jahrhundert sah eine besondere Blüte der Herz-Jesu-Frömmigkeit als Zeichen der Hoffnung und als geistliches Gegengift zur Säkularisierung. Die Aufnahme ihres Festes in den römischen Kalender, zunehmend ab dem 19. Jahrhundert, spiegelt diese Entwicklung wider und ehrt ihren Beitrag zum geistlichen Leben der Kirche. Ihr Gedenktag, der 17. Oktober, wurde im traditionellen Kalender als dritter Rang (III. Klasse) festgelegt und steht so in besonderer Nähe zum Herz-Jesu-Freitag sowie anderen Festen, die die Liebe Gottes betonen. Die liturgische Farbe Weiß unterstreicht die Freude und Reinheit, mit denen Margareta-Maria ihre Berufung lebte.
Das Fest im traditionellen Kalender lädt alle Gläubigen dazu ein, sich erneut der barmherzigen Liebe des Herzens Jesu zu öffnen und Margareta-Marias geistlichem Beispiel nachzufolgen, das von Demut, Opfergeist und Treue gegenüber göttlichen Eingebungen geprägt ist.

Lesson from the letter of St. Paul the Apostle to the Ephesians
Eph 3:8-9, 14-19
Brethren: To me, the very least of all saints, there was given this grace to announce among the Gentiles the good tidings of the unfathomable riches of Christ, and to enlighten all men as to what is the dispensation of the mystery which has been hidden from eternity in God, Who created all things. For this reason I bend my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, from Whom all fatherhood in heaven and on earth receives its name, that He may grant you from His glorious riches to be strengthened with power through His Spirit unto the progress of the inner man; and to have Christ dwelling through faith in your hearts: so that, being rooted and grounded in love, you may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know Christ’s love which surpasses knowledge, in order that you may be filled unto all the fullness of God.
℟. Thanks be to God.

℟. Glória tibi, Dómine.
Matt 11:25-30
In illo témpore: Respóndens Iesus, dixit: Confíteor tibi, Pater, Dómine cæli et terræ, quia abscondísti hæc a sapiéntibus et prudéntibus, et revelásti ea párvulis. Ita, Pater: quóniam sic fuit plácitum ante te. Omnia mihi trádita sunt a Patre meo. Et nemo novit Fílium nisi Pater: neque Patrem quis novit nisi Fílius, et cui volúerit Fílius reveláre. Veníte ad me, omnes, qui laborátis et oneráti estis, et ego refíciam vos. Tóllite iugum meum super vos, et discite a me, quia mitis sum et húmilis corde: et inveniétis réquiem animábus vestris. Iugum enim meum suave est et onus meum leve.

℟. Glory be to Thee, O Lord.
Matt 11:25-30
At that time, Jesus spoke and said, I praise You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You hid these things from the wise and prudent, and revealed them to little ones. Yes, Father, for such was Your good pleasure. All things have been delivered to Me by My Father; and no one knows the Son except the Father; nor does anyone know the Father except the Son, and him to whom the Son chooses to reveal Him. Come to Me, all you who labor and are burdened, and I will give you rest. Take My yoke upon you, and learn from Me, for I am meek and humble of heart; and you will find rest for your souls. For My yoke is easy, and My burden light.
