The month of July is dedicated to the Most Precious Blood of the Redeemer

DEVOTION TO THE PRECIOUS BLOOD

“As we now approach the feast and month devoted to honoring Christ's Blood - the price of our redemption, the pledge of salvation and life eternal - may Christians meditate on it more fervently, may they savor its fruits more frequently in sacramental communion. Let their meditations on the bondless power of the Blood be bathed in the light of sound biblical teaching and the doctrine of the Fathers and Doctors of the Church. How truly precious is this Blood is voiced in the song which the Church sings with the Angelic Doctor (sentiments wisely seconded by our predecessor Clement V)”: 

"Blood that but one drop of
has the world to win
All the world forgiveness
of its world of sin"

St. Peter's in Rome,
Eve of the feast of Our Lord Jesus Christ's Most Precious Blood
