If any alms are to be gathered,, our wish is that tho money should be entirely devoted to the succour of the Belgian people, who are as illustrious by reason of their nobility and their piety as they are today worthy of all sympathy. ''Amid the difficulties 1 and; anxieties of the present hour wo would remind, the sons who aTe so dear to us that the arm of God is not'shortened, that He is <*>ver able to-save, that His ear is not deaf to prayer. •. . ~ . "Let the hope of Divine aid increase with the approaoh of the _ festival of Christmas and of the mysteries that celebrate the birth "of our Lord, and recall that peace which God proclaimed to mankind by His angels. _ "May tho souls of tho suffering and afflicted find comfort and consahtion in the assurance of the paternal tenderness that prompts our' prayers.' Ves, may God take pity upon the Belgian people, and grant them the abundance of all good. "As a pledge of these prayers and. good wishes, we now grant to all, and in -the first place to you. Our dear son, the Apostolic Benediction. "Given in Rome, by St. Peters, on tJ: feast of the Immaculate Conception of Our Lady, in the year MCMXIV, tho first of Our Pontificate.' "BENEDICT XV, POPE." One last word, my dearest brethren. At the outset of those troubles I said to you that in the day of the liberation of our territory we should dive to the Sacred Heart and to the Blessed 'Virgin a public testimony of our gratitude. Since that date .I havo been able to consult my colleagues in -the Episcopate, and, in agreement with them, I now ask you to make, as soon as possiblo, a fresh effort: to hasten the construction of the national basilica, promised by Belgium in honour of the Sacred Heart. . As soon as the sun of peace shall shine upon our country, we shall redress our ruins, wo shall restore shelter to those who havo none, wo shall rebuild our churches, we shall reconstitute our libraries, mid we shall hope to crown this work of reconciliation by raising, upon the heights of tho capital of Belgium, free and Catholic, that national basilica of the Sacred Heart. Furthermore, every year we shall make it our duty to celebrate solemnly on the Friday following Corpus Christi, the festival of tho Sacred Heart. Lastly, in every region of the diocese the clergy will organise an annual pilgrimage of thanksgiving to. one of the privileged sanctuaries of the Blessed Virgin, in order to pay especial honour to tho Protectress of our national independence and universal Mediatrix of tho Christian commonwealth. The present loiter shall bo rsad .cu the following dates—on tho first day of tho year and on the Sundays following the day on which it shall severally reach jrii. Accept, my dearest brethren. my wishes and prayers for you, and for Ihe happiness of your fainiiic< and receive, I pray you, toy paternal benediction. " D. J. MERGIKR, ■ • ,
