St. Martin of Tours Parish in the Bronx has a healing prayer grotto dedicated to Our Lady Undoer of Knots.

It is a Catholic devotion that has become popular in recent years, particularly due to the support of Pope Francis who has recommended it several times during this pontificate.

The parish, in collaboration with the Archdiocese’s Office for Family Life, hosted an evening of hope and healing on October 5th to underline how families can benefit from this devotion.

Today, Jesus reminds us of something important about fasting. Jesus is always with us, but we sometimes close ourselves off to Him. Fasting is a way to return our focus to Him.
