Consecration Prayer for Peace

I consecrate Russia and the Ukraine to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

I further consecrate the priests, the Church and the world to the Sacred Heart of Jesus and Immaculate Heart of Mary.

I do this in the name of Jesus in as far as I am able, united to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, praying to the Father, in the Holy Spirit, with all the angels and saints and the souls in purgatory through the powerful intercession of Mary, Queen of Peace. Amen.

I further consecrate myself, all members of my family and ask the Holy Spirit to fill us. I spread the Blood of Jesus on all above, I cast the devil into hell away from all of us and consecrate all persons, in as far as I am able,  to the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart.

     

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.

Sorrowful Mysteries

The Agony in the Garden

1. Luke 22: 39-46

The Mount of Olives

He then left to make his way as usual to the Mount of Olives, with the disciples following. When he reached the place he said to them, ‘Pray not to be put to the test.’

    Then he withdrew from them, about a stone’s throw away, and knelt down and prayed. ‘Father,’ he said, ‘if you are willing, take this cup away from me. Nevertheless, let your will be done, not mine.’ Then an angel appeared to him, coming from heaven to give him strength. In his anguish he prayed even more earnestly, and his sweat fell to the ground like great drops of blood. When he rose from prayer he went to the disciples and found them sleeping for sheer grief. And he said to them, ‘Why are you asleep? Get up and pray not to be put to the test.’


2. Jesus teaches the priest to be prepared for suffering and to be able to endure as He did.
3. Jesus saw everything that would happen in the Garden and He teaches us to endure suffering when we have to, to live God’s will in love.
4. Jesus' anguish was so great He sweat blood, but He kept going on to do His Father’s will.

5. Hebrews 4:15
    “For we have not a high priest who cannot have compassion on our infirmities, but one tried as we are in all things except sin.”

6. In times of desolation and suffering we must continue to pray and ask for God’s help, but not change direction from God’s will, wait until God shows us in favor the way to take.
    Don’t change direction when being attacked in desolation. PRAY, hold steady to God, even in suffering.
7. Jesus asked the Apostles to pray and not sleep. Three times He went to them.
8. Are we sleeping, not seeing when God may be answering us to keep praying, and enduring suffering and being patient. Is Christ strengthening our spiritual muscles in the suffering?

9. From the Red Rosary Book

August 11, 1994

I Watched You  

(Rosaries from the Hearts of Jesus and Mary pp. 8-10)

Jesus:  Oh, how I watched you, child. I watched you as I gave you each little sign of My love. I watched you grow in your faith and trust in Me. I watched you suffer and stood so close you could have touched Me, but you didn't know that this suffering would be that which led you to My tender love for you.

    I watched you when you surrendered and turned your will over to Me and I watched you cry, knowing this was the most joyous day of your life. I watched you see visions of doors and knew you would want to go through those doors, but they were not the doors you thought, they were the doors I gave you for greater union with Me. I watched you, child, when you wrote down My first letter to you and I saw your confusion and joy, knowing what these letters would do to touch so many hearts.

    I watched you, child. I watched you when I showed you My Heart and you were so warmed by this Heart and so awed by its vision, but you didn't know what this vision would mean for many to draw their hearts to My burning love.

    I watched you surrender each time as you let go of each little thing, as you were dying to self. I watched you through this surrender grow closer to Me. I watched you grow in this deep love for Me, step by step. I watched our love grow as you gave more of yourself in prayer. I watched you, child, and I loved being ever closer to you.

    I watched you struggle in such trials that you thought tomorrow would never come, knowing that this trial was what would give you more freedom and love for Me. I watched you learn each lesson through hard tests and I was so close while you struggled, but did not remove the struggle, knowing you would not learn your lesson if I had.

    I watched you, child, through each joy and pain and I loved you silently, always with you, and you never knew how close I truly was to you.

Song: From the day you were born…

    From the day you were born, I watched you. Forever by your side, I guarded you, I loved you. I know the most secret desire of your heart far better than you yourself know. I know the Father's plan for you. I know the Father's love for you. I know the love poured on you from the Holy Spirit and how Mary is forever by your side.

    I watch you, child, constantly guarding you and your ways and you do not know the love I have for you. You do not know how My Heart burns for love of you. And, someday, My beautiful child, you will know what I have in store for you, My beloved.

    Come and be with Me. Grow in your love with Me. I never leave you, My beloved. Remember, I am forever watching you.


10. From Tell My People by Fr. Edward J. Carter, S.J.

The Cross Leads to Life

Jesus: “My beloved priest-companion, tell My people that they must keep the lesson of the cross fresh in their consciousness. Remind them that I am the Christ of the Cross as well as the Christ of the Resurrection. I suffered tremendously on My way to death on the cross. My sacred flesh was so cruelly lacerated by the scourging. My sacred head was so cruelly and mockingly crowned with thorns. I was spat upon and made fun of. Exhausted by terrible suffering, I still had to carry the heavy cross to Calvary. There My sacred hands and feet were mercilessly pierced with nails. Oh! what pain this caused Me!

“I suffered all this most willingly—out of love for My Father and for all My people! Through My cross, through My suffering, I obtained new life for My people. Through My cruel and brutal death, I achieved Resurrection for Myself and all My people. My suffering was not an end in itself. It was a necessary passageway to obtain the life I came to give.

“My people must share in My cross—so that they may share more and more in My life. Remind My people, My dear friend, that suffering, when embraced according to My Father’s will, leads to greater life here and hereafter. The cross, properly carried, always leads to a greater share in My Resurrection.

“Tell My people that the more they are united with Me in love, the easier is the carrying of the cross. The more one dwells in Me, the more I help that person to carry the cross. In this way, even the heaviest cross becomes relatively light.

“Carrying the cross does not mean to be in misery. Carrying one’s cross in union with Me always allows a person to remain in peace. The cross does not take away peace and joy. Despite the pain involved, the cross gives increased peace and joy. I am Lord and Master. I eagerly desire that all listen to My words and live them! “My people, come each day to My Heart and I will give you the light and strength to carry your cross according to Father’s will! I love My people with an overwhelming love, and in this great love I give them this message.”
 
 

The Scourging at the Pillar

1. Luke 23: 15-19, 22

...As you can see, the man has done nothing that deserves death, so I shall have him flogged and then let him go.' But as one man they howled, 'Away with him! Give us Barabbas!' (This man had been thrown into prison because of a riot in the city and murder.)

And for the third time he spoke to them, 'But what harm has this man done? I have found no case against him that deserves death, so I shall have him flogged and then let him go.'


2. We see the Apostles filled with fear, fled from Christ as He endured the bitter passion.
3. Oh Jesus, how often we, too, fled from our calling and duty because of spiritual weakness and giving into the deadly sins of pride, anger, jealousy, envy, slothfulness, etc. that offend God. And Jesus, You suffered for our weakness giving into sin.
4. Oh Jesus, help us to follow You and pray for strength not to give into evil temptation.
5. And they beat Jesus, tearing His precious flesh for our sins.
6. Trying to have a strong body takes exercise, we need discipline and virtue to strengthen our spiritual weaknesses and tendencies toward pride, anger, jealousy, envy, slothfulness, etc.
7. Jesus we are sorry we put the whips to Your back that tore Your flesh for our sins.
We are sorry, please forgive us, thank You for suffering for our sins, and teaching us how You endured.
8. Oh God, I love You.

Prayer for Union with Jesus

Come to me, Lord, and possess my soul. Come into my heart and permeate my soul. Help me to sit in silence with You and let You work in my heart.

    I am Yours to possess. I am Yours to use. I want to be selfless and only exist in You. Help me to spoon out all that is me and be an empty vessel ready to be filled by You. Help me to die to myself and live only for You. Use me as You will. Let me never draw my attention back to myself. I only want to operate as You do, dwelling within me.

    I am Yours, Lord. I want to have my life in You. I want to do the will of the Father. Give me the strength to put aside the world and let You operate my very being. Help me to act as You desire. Strengthen me against the distractions of the devil to take me from Your work.

    When I worry, I have taken my focus off of You and placed it on myself. Help me not to give in to the promptings of others to change what in my heart You are making very clear to me. I worship You, I adore You and I love You. Come and dwell in me now.

-God's Blue Book, January 17, 1994

The Crowning with Thorns

1. Matthew 27: 27-31

Then the governor’s soldiers took Jesus with them into the Praetorium and collected the whole cohort round him. And they stripped him and put a scarlet cloak round him, and having twisted some thorns into a crown they put this on his head and placed a reed in his right hand. To make fun of him they knelt to him saying, ‘Hail, king of the Jews!’ And they spat on him and took the reed and struck him on the head with it. And when they had finished making fun of him, they took off the cloak and dressed him in his own clothes and led him away to crucifixion.


2. How much has the Passion touched hearts that need repentance? These rosaries can tell people of Jesus’ love as they pray the Hail Marys and the Holy Spirit works to help them through God’s love in their prayers.
3. Pride that gets in hearts, that want to always be right or try to prove wrong is right and right wrong, hurts the spiritual life. Truth is best.
4. Jesus: I am the way, the truth and the life.
5. Jesus was humiliated, mocked, beaten, spit on, lied to for our sins, and He endured it to His death on the cross for our sins.
6. They mocked Jesus as a King. They stripped Him of His garments and crowned Jesus with a crown of thorns. They put a purple dirty cloak on Him and gave Him a scepter.
7. They pounded the thorns on His Head and His head bled profusely.
8. They were mean men mocking Jesus as King of the Jews.
9. They spit on Jesus as they mocked Him.
10. Jesus was the innocent lamb led to the slaughter.

 

The Carrying of the Cross

1. Matthew 27: 32-34

On their way out, they came across a man from Cyrene, called Simon, and enlisted him to carry his cross. When they had reached a place called Golgotha, that is, the place of the skull, they gave him wine to drink mixed with gall, which he tasted but refused to drink.


2. Think of being hit.
    Think of nursing ugly words someone may say.
    Now think of Jesus how He endured the suffering, showing us how to endure in suffering, humiliation, abuse, and persecution.

3. John 19:16
    They gave Jesus a heavy cross laden with our sins. Jesus carried all the sins of the world. Jesus did it for us.

4. Think of World War II
    How men suffered and lost their lives for our freedom.
5. Think of Jesus who carried our sins, the suffering servant. Jesus is our Redeemer and Savior.
6. Jesus suffered in the bitter passion for our sins.

7. 1 Peter 2: 21

    This, in fact, is what you were called to do, because Christ suffered for you and left an example for you to follow in his steps.

8. How can we compare our little crosses to Jesus’ cross?
9. They took Jesus to the hill of Calvary and stripped Him of His garments.
10. Jesus fell 3 times. Three, Jesus asked them 3 times in the Garden to pray.
    Jesus hung 3 hours on the cross. Jesus was lost 3 days.
    There are 3 Persons in the Trinity.
 


The Crucifixion

1. Matthew 27: 35-44

When they had finished crucifying him they shared out his clothing by casting lots, and then sat down and stayed there keeping guard over him. 

    Above his head was placed the charge against him; it read: ‘This is Jesus, the King of the Jews.’ Then two bandits were crucified with him, one on the right and one on the left.

The crucified Jesus is mocked

The passers–by jeered at him; they shook their heads and said, ‘So you would destroy the Temple and in three days rebuild it! Then save yourself if you are God’s son and come down from the cross!’ The chief priests with the scribes and elders mocked him in the same way, with the words, ‘He saved others; he cannot save himself. He is the king of Israel; let him come down from the cross now, and we will believe in him. He has put his trust in God; now let God rescue him if he wants him. For he did say, "I am God’s son." ’ Even the bandits who were crucified with him taunted him in the same way.
 

2. Jesus was nailed to the cross.
3. How would we be if we were told we were dying?
4. We may not know the day we wake up that we could die that day. We should prepare for our death, always by obeying God’s Law.
5. So many today in nursing homes and hospitals are sick or old and know they are dying.
6. Think of Jesus knowing everything that would happen all the way to death on the cross.
7. Some have blood diseases, tumors on the brain that are inoperable, poison, emphysema, kidney or heart failure and they know they are dying.
8. What about if we knew that we would lose our soul, Jesus went through His bitter passion, so we could be saved.
9. Mary appeared in Clearwater, here is what she said "Mary’s Message August 27, 1996."

Mary's Message
from the Rosary of August 27, 1996

Mary:  I stood beneath the cross of my Son, and my Heart was in such pain for I saw Him before my eyes. I saw Him covered with blood. I saw Him die. My Heart, my children, my Heart to watch my Son, but my Heart, my Heart, how I suffered for my little children of the world that give in to this world and give up the love of my Son. O my little children of light, I give you this message. Carry this light into the darkness for your Mother Mary, for I stood beneath the cross and I cried. I cried for the little ones. I cried for the young ones, the ones that do not care and will lose their souls. How do I make you see for you will not listen to me? What can I do? I come. I appear. I beg. I plead. I give you these gifts from my Son, and you reject me. I do not deliver messages very often anymore for I have been ignored. The message is the same. You do not read the messages I have given to you. Please help me. Help the little children. I appear. I appear. I appear, and I am ignored. I stood beneath the cross, and I cried. I cried, and my Heart was in such anguish for my little children, for I am searching for them this day as I searched for the Child Jesus. Please, please help me. I cannot hold back the hand of my Son any longer. I am Mary, your Mother. I ask you to help my children. You are my children of light. end of Mary's Message

10. Time here below is a gift from God to help us do what we need to, to go to heaven.
    Jesus died next to two thieves one was sorry and one refused to repent.
    We have a free will.

 

John 19:26

“Woman behold your Son.”






Heaven is forever.

$ 10.00

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. $10

Guiding Light - Steadfast to the Son
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle A of the Litugical Year
$ 10.00

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. $10

Guiding Light - Focusing on the Word
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle B of the Litugical Year
$ 10.00

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. $10

Guiding Light - Feed My Soul
Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle C of the Litugical Year
$ 10.00

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. $10
