Prayer for Grace for our Country
Dear Father united to Jesus in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the Sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present, celebrated around the world, in the Holy Spirit. We offer up all we do united to the Mass. We unite in one mind and one heart as members of the mystical body of Christ, with Christ our head in the pure and holy Hearts of Jesus and Mary, through the powerful intercession of Mary with all the angels and saints and souls in purgatory, and we beg for the saving grace, for our country, the United States. Please help us. We further pray for unity to always do the will of God in love. We spread the Blood of Jesus on the leaders and people of the United States and cast the devil into hell. We consecrate our country to the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart and all our dioceses, and beg for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit. God help us. We pray for our families, the priests, the Church and the world. In the Name of Jesus please hear us, we pray. We pray for our president and leaders. We pray that we are united as one nation under God to work together in love as God wants.

R. We help in the work of redemption by our lives loved to serve Him.
God is good all the time.
Moses led God’s people through the desert.Exodus 17: 8-13
The Amalekites then came and attacked Israel at Rephidim. Moses said to Joshua, ‘Pick some men and tomorrow morning go out and engage Amalek. I, for my part, shall take my stand on the hilltop with the staff of God in my hand.’ Joshua did as Moses had told him and went out to engage Amalek, while Moses, Aaron and Hur went up to the top of the hill. As long as Moses kept his arms raised, Israel had the advantage; when he let his arms fall, the advantage went to Amalek. But Moses’ arms grew heavy, so they took a stone and put it under him and on this he sat, with Aaron and Hur supporting his arms on each side. Thus his arms remained unwavering till sunset, and Joshua defeated Amalek, putting their people to the sword.
R. Albert Einstein said
Insanity is doing the same thing over and over
and expecting different results.
This is like addictive behavior.

Please come to China 12 noon
102nd Anniversary of Fatima's 6th apparition.3 ways we can approach prayer
even when we feel God is not
listening.Theological – may be praying for
something that isn't good.
Maybe God wants us to know
He is God and we are children
and we need Him –When we think we can do a
better job than God
we get in trouble.We must operate on God's clock.
God runs His clock
slower than ours –People give up because
they have to keep praying.In prayer we activate an
energy and when we stop
praying – the energy stops.Go your way, your faith has
saved you –
We pray for world peace –
Jesus tells us we should
pray without getting
tired –

2 Timothy 3: 14- 4:2
You must keep to what you have been taught and know to be true; remember who your teachers were, and how, ever since you were a child, you have known the holy scriptures—from these you can learn the wisdom that leads to salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. All scripture is inspired by God and useful for refuting error, for guiding people’s lives and teaching them to be upright. This is how someone who is dedicated to God becomes fully equipped and ready for any good work.
Before God and before Christ Jesus who is to be judge of the living and the dead, I charge you, in the name of his appearing and of his kingdom: proclaim the message and, welcome or unwelcome, insist on it. Refute falsehood, correct error, give encouragement—but do all with patience and with care to instruct.
Luke 18: 1-8
Then he told them a parable about the need to pray continually and never lose heart. ‘There was a judge in a certain town,’ he said, ‘who had neither fear of God nor respect for anyone. In the same town there was also a widow who kept on coming to him and saying, "I want justice from you against my enemy!" For a long time he refused, but at last he said to himself, "Even though I have neither fear of God nor respect for any human person, I must give this widow her just rights since she keeps pestering me, or she will come and slap me in the face." ’
And the Lord said, ‘You notice what the unjust judge has to say? Now, will not God see justice done to his elect if they keep calling to him day and night even though he still delays to help them? I promise you, he will see justice done to them, and done speedily. But when the Son of man comes, will he find any faith on earth?’
29th Sunday of Ordinary Time
October 16, 2016
– (Exodus 17, 8-13; 2 Timothy 3,14 – 4,2; Luke 18, 1-8) As Moses led God's people from slavery in Egypt, through the desert, to the Promised Land, they encountered numerous threats to their lives: the army of Pharaoh, the Reed Sea they had to cross, the lack of water and food in the desert. One such threat was opposition from those peoples whose lands they had to pass through to get where they were going. Today’s reading speaks of an attack by Amalek, a desert tribe living south of the Dead Sea. Moses positioned himself on a nearby hill to pray for success in battle. He prayed with his arms held high in petition. As long as he prayed, his prayer was powerful and effective. This story is an encouragement to us to persevere in our prayer, which is also the lesson in today’s gospel.INTRODUCTION
HOMILY
– Albert Einstein said the definition of insanity is “doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.” Einstein was a very intelligent man and his definition of insanity may be true in many instances. I’ve used this definition in counseling, especially with addictive behavior. But there are exceptions to Einstein’s definition of insanity. Jesus is giving us one exception in today’s gospel. The widow woman was in need of receiving a just settlement in a claim. She kept pleading with the judge that she be treated fairly, and eventually he gave in because he thought she might cause him some harm. In desperation the judge wanted to get rid of the widow, and her persistence paid off. Despite the wisdom of Albert Einstein, prayer is also something we cannot discontinue. Why is that? That is a question for which everyone wants the answer.“Why must we not stop praying, even and especially when it seems God is not listening?” Maybe what we are praying for is not good for us and God in his wisdom and love is protecting us. Maybe we will develop into spoiled children thinking we should always have our way. Maybe God wants to give us something better. Maybe if we are praying for someone else to change, which is a more complicated kind of prayer, God is trying to move them to a better place, but they are opposing God’s grace. My best answer is maybe God wants us to know that he is God and we are not. He wants us to stay aware of our fundamental relationship with God: that he is our Father and we are his children and we need him at all times. Now this is an important lesson that all of us have to learn. When we start thinking we are God, or we could do a better job than God does, then we get into big trouble. Adam and Eve could testify to that.
God, it seems to us, runs his clock a little slower than we do. I believe having to wait for an answer to prayer accounts for about 90% of the reason why people don’t pray. Even if it’s not the exact blessing we have decided we need, every prayer will bring some blessing to us
I could talk a lot more about prayer, but I’m afraid it would get very complicated. Yet it’s not complicated at all. The simple answer of why we should keep on praying without growing tired is because that’s how Jesus tells us we should pray. Amen.

Guiding Light
- Reflect on the Word
Guiding Light homily series - Reflect on the Word - Cycle
B — The Word leaves an impression on our souls. In my thoughts and
reflections are born a more tangible understanding of these eternal
concepts presented in the Gospels and the readings. Anyone can read a
sentence, but not anyone can absorb it's true meaning. Truth, in this
day and age, is almost a matter of opinion or individual entitlement. We
believe that Christ's truth is our Roman Catholic Church. We, as
priests, champion it's teachings; we are ambassadors for the Pope and
Christ to those faces looking at us. We are the light by which our
congregation reads to reflect upon real truth and we do it hand in hand.

Guiding Light homily series - Steadfast to the Son - Cycle A — The sunflower is a great example of how we should be steadfastly guided by light. What a powerful thought that this exceptional plant is not stuck in one pose day in and day out, yet adaptable and magnetized to the sun. We feel the same about our Son. Our heads turns to face Christ as each day presents its challenges to find light. We join together like plants in a field and soak up the Son through the pulpit. We are a warm circle of strength using the wind of our breath to carry our priests' words, Christ's words, to new rich soil. $15 | ||
|
|
Guiding Light - Feed My Soul - Cycle C — In a world rapidly advancing and encouraging personal gain, we are faced with modern problems. There is a challenge to find time in our busy schedules for Sunday Mass or a family meal. We are able to research, shop, bank and even work without hearing one human voice. It is no wonder that we may often feel disconnected and famished at our week's end. In Fr. Joe's third book of homilies from Cycle C, we are reminded of the charity that Christ intended us to show each other. We have a calling to turn the other cheek and be the Good Samaritan to others. We are rewarded with the Father's kingdom and love when we are not worthy. We are not left alone or hungry. $15 |
Guiding Light - Focusing on the Word - Cycle B — At times we may feel that our path to Christ is a bit "out of focus". Like the disciples in the Book of Mark, this ordinary life clouds our vision of Christ's Divinity. We may doubt the practicality or possibility of applying His teachings and example to our modern life. Cycle B's homilies are a "guiding light" to help us realize Jesus' Messianic greatness and His promise of better things to come. $15 |
