Isaiah 61:1-4

The Lord has anointed me, on me his spirit has fallen; he has sent me to bring good news to men that are humbled, to heal broken hearts, promising the release of captives, the opening of prison doors, proclaiming the year of the Lord’s pardon, the day when He, our God, will give us redress. Comfort for every mourner; Sion’s mourners, what decree should I make for them, what gift offer them? Heads shall be garlanded, that once were strewn with ashes; bright with oil, the faces that were marred with grief; gaily they shall be clad, that went sorrowing. Sturdy growths (men will say) that fulfil hope reposed in them, pride of the Lord’s planting! Theirs to rebuild what long has lain desolate, repair the ruins of past days, restore the forsaken cities that were lost, we thought, for ever.

Mark 1, 40-42

Then a leper came up to Him, asking for His aid; he knelt at His feet and said, "If it be Thy will, Thou hast power to make me clean." Jesus was moved with pity; He held out His hand and touched Him, and said, "It is My will; be thou made clean." And at the word, the leprosy all at once left him, and he was cleansed.

Cor Iesu, fons totíus consolatiónis, miserére nobis!

Consolátrix afflictórum, ora pro nobis!
