The Feast of St. Blasé is one where traditionally the priest blesses the throats of those who desire it, praying to ward off any sickness of the throat such as flu or pneumonia. This Feast falls in the middle of the cold Northern Hemisphere winter. Let us modify things a little and pray for the deliverance from all illnesses and sicknesses and ask Blasé to intercede for us in this regard.
ALLELUIA
R: Alleluia, alleluia
The Kingdom of God is at hand; repent and believe in the Gospel.

Mark 6:7-13
7 Jesus summoned the Twelve and began to send them out two by two and gave them authority over unclean spirits. 8 He instructed them to take nothing for the journey but a walking stick — no food, no sack, no money in their belts. 9 They were, however, to wear sandals but not a second tunic. 10 He said to them, “Wherever you enter a house, stay there until you leave from there. 11 Whatever place does not welcome you or listen to you, leave there and shake the dust off your feet in testimony against them.” 12 So they went off and preached repentance. 13 They drove out many demons, and they anointed with oil many who were sick and cured them.
