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.

Excerpt from Blue Book 6B
February 11, 1995
Feast of Our Lady of LourdesThis rosary was prayed before the statue of Our Lady of Sorrows. Rita, Cathy, Joe and Marty were present. Mary appeared — she was so beautiful, so gorgeous.
Glorious Mysteries
The Resurrection
1. R. Jesus was locked in the tomb after His death and on the third day He rose triumphant from the dead. Death has no power over Jesus!
2. R. He came to give us life that we might have it to the full!
3. John 3: 16
For this is how God loved the world:
he gave his only Son,
so that everyone who believes in him
may not perish
but may have eternal life.4. R. It is in living in the Father's will that we will be the happiest.
5. R. The Father sent His Son to this world. We are sons of the Father! The Father loves us with such immense love.
6. R. They locked Jesus in the tomb and He rose on the third day. He rose triumphant. We live the Paschal Mystery of death/resurrection.
7. R. The Church is the Body of Christ. We are living in communities. The Trinity is the most perfect community. God intends us to walk hand-in-hand with each other.
8. R. We share in His life through the sacraments. He gave the Apostles the power to baptize and to forgive sins. In Baptism we are made children of God and heirs of Heaven.
9. R. Our human nature is elevated through baptism.
10. R. Our knowing and loving capacity is elevated.
Song between decades: Come Holy Spirit
The Ascension
1. Then he took them out as far as the outskirts of Bethany, and raising his hands he blessed them. Now as he blessed them, he withdrew from them and was carried up to heaven. Luke 24: 50-51
2. As he said this he was lifted up while they looked on, and a cloud took him from their sight. They were still staring into the sky as he went, when suddenly two men in white were standing beside them, and they said, ‘Why are you Galileans standing here looking into the sky? This Jesus who has been taken up from you into heaven will come back in the same way as you have seen him go to heaven.’ Acts 1: 9-11
3. R. The Apostles were fearful. They were so close to Jesus! They saw Jesus! They lived with Jesus! But they were so filled with fear that they went and locked themselves in the upper room. Think of Peter as he denied Jesus three times after he had just told Jesus how He would always be faithful to Him. When we stumble and when we fall and we feel that we are not faithful to Jesus, think of the Apostles and how close they were to Him and how they were still filled with fear and doubt! They were blind. We are human. We are blind. We do not see. Holy Spirit impart to us Your vision. Help us to see more clearly. Give us the gifts of wisdom, understanding, counsel, fortitude, knowledge, piety and fear of the Lord to know more all that we need to know to be drawn ever closer to You and know more Your Divine Love.
4. R. Jesus has not gone! He remains with us this day out of greatest love in the Eucharist.
Song: I Love You Jesus
5. R. Jesus gives us Himself in the Eucharist.
6. R. How can we love and not love our brothers? For God is truly love and to know Him is to love! We are to love one another.
7. He is the image of the unseen God, the first–born of all creation, for in him were created all things in heaven and on earth: everything visible and everything invisible, thrones, ruling forces, sovereignties, powers—all things were created through him and for him. He exists before all things and in him all things hold together, and he is the Head of the Body, that is, the Church. He is the Beginning, the first–born from the dead, so that he should be supreme in every way; because God wanted all fullness to be found in him and through him to reconcile all things to him, everything in heaven and everything on earth, by making peace through his death on the cross. Colossians 1: 15-20
8. R. These are truly the Glorious Mysteries. Jesus rose triumphantly from the dead and He ascended into Heaven!
9. R. Jesus showed them His Power and His Might when He rose from the dead and then ascended into Heaven!
10. R. Jesus Christ, the Son of God, came to this earth a little baby. Out of greatest love for us, God comes into the world a little baby, He died on the cross, He rose from the dead and He ascended into Heaven.
Sing: A Song From Jesus
Song between decades: Come Holy Spirit
Descent of the Holy Spirit
1. John 16: 12-17
I still have many things to say to you
but they would be too much for you
to bear now.
However, when the Spirit of truth comes
he will lead you to the complete truth,
since he will not be speaking
of his own accord,
but will say only what he has been told;
and he will reveal to you
the things to come.
He will glorify me,
since all he reveals to you
will be taken from what is mine.
Everything the Father has is mine;
that is why I said:
all he reveals to you
will be taken from what is mine.In a short time you will no longer see me,
and then a short time later
you will see me again.Then some of his disciples said to one another, ‘What does he mean, "In a short time you will no longer see me, and then a short time later you will see me again," and, "I am going to the Father"?
2. John baptised with water but, not many days from now, you are going to be baptised with the Holy Spirit.’ Acts 1: 5
3. "When Pentecost day came round, they had all met together, when suddenly there came from heaven a sound as of a violent wind which filled the entire house in which they were sitting; and there appeared to them tongues as of fire; these separated and came to rest on the head of each of them. They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak different languages as the Spirit gave them power to express themselves. Acts 2: 1-4
4. R. They were transformed from fear to fearlessness and they went out to preach the Gospel and all understood!
5. R. The Father loves us so that He has created us in His own image and likeness. Dear Holy Spirit, through the Virgin Mary, transform us more into the image of Jesus. We want to be more one with You God: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
6. Excerpt from Response to God's Love, by Father Edward Carter, S.J.
...In reference to Christianity, God himself is the ultimate mystery. Radically, God is completely other and transcendent, hidden from man in his inner life, unless he chooses to reveal himself. Let us briefly look at this inner life of God.
The Father, in a perfect act of self-expression, in a perfect act of knowing, generates his son. The Son, the Word, is, then, the immanent expression of God's fullness, the reflection of the Father. Likewise, from all eternity, the Father and the Son bring forth the Holy Spirit in a perfect act of loving.
At the destined moment in human history, God's self-expression, the Word, immersed himself into man's world. God's inner self-expression now had also become God's outer self-expression. Consequently, the mystery of God becomes the mystery of Christ. In Christ, God tells us about himself, about his inner life, about his plan of creation and redemption. He tells us how Father, Son, and Holy Spirit desire to dwell within us in the most intimate fashion, how they wish to share with us their own life through grace. All this he has accomplished and does accomplish through Christ. St. Paul tells us: "I became a minister of this Church through the commission God gave me to preach among you his word in its fullness, that mystery hidden from ages and generations past but now revealed to his holy ones. God has willed to make known to them the glory beyond price which this mystery brings to the Gentiles—the mystery of Christ in you, your hope of glory. This is the Christ we proclaim while we admonish all men and teach them in the full measure of wisdom, hoping to make every man complete in Christ" (Col 1:25-28).7. Mold us more and more into the image of Jesus. Jesus Christ became man, the mediator of God and man. Jesus has summarized Christian life as love.
For this is how God loved the world:
he gave his only Son,
so that everyone who believes in him
may not perish
but may have eternal life. John 3: 168. R. Jesus gives us Himself in the Eucharist.
Song: I am the Bread of Life
9. Song: I Love You Jesus
10. Song: Come Holy Ghost
Song between decades: Come Holy Spirit
The Assumption of Mary into Heaven
1. R. Mary is taken body and soul into heaven.
2. R. Imagine the immense joy!
3. R. It is through consecration to these two Most loving Hearts that we will be more able to do God's will and grow in greater holiness. We want to love the Trinity: Father, Son and Holy Spirit more and more.
4. R. The most perfect community is the Trinity.
5. R. It is in joining more and more to the love of the Trinity that we will be filled with love in our hearts.
6. R. Jesus communicates to us His great love in the Eucharist and pours out His grace. Jesus gives Himself to us. Jesus takes us to the bosom of the Father.
7. R. Father, we are Your little children! Help us to have this relationship with You as sons and daughters of God!
8. R. Mary was born a human person conceived without sin. She is the most perfect disciple of Jesus. Dear Holy Spirit, transform us in the Heart of the Virgin Mary to be more like Jesus!
9. R. God loves us so much that He created us in His own image and likeness.
10. R. Outpour Your abundant grace to us that we may be more likened to you and live in deeper love.
Song: Come Holy Ghost
The Coronation of Mary as Queen of Heaven and Earth
1. Now a great sign appeared in heaven: a woman, robed with the sun, standing on the moon, and on her head a crown of twelve stars. Revelation 12: 1
2. Song: Immaculate Mary
3. R. Heaven is our true home! Jesus died so we could go to heaven someday if we love and serve God and keep His commands.
4. R. Death has no power over Jesus.
5. R. Dear Holy Spirit, remove the blinders from our eyes so that we may see. God runs the world and our every breath and our every heartbeat depends on God. Help us to see and know what is real.
6. Song: A Song from Jesus
7. R. As she comes as Our Lady of Light, she comes to tell us that we will light the world through the love of her Most Precious Son.
8. R. Jesus is the Light of the World! He is the source of Life and Love! God has all the power!
9. R. And the light shone brightest in the darkest night! Look to the Light for the light!
10. Song: Hail Holy Queen
Song: Come Holy Spirit

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. $15 |
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 — 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 |
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 — The Word Alive in Our Hearts. — Cycle A (partial) Homilies by the Reverend Joe Robinson given at St. Boniface Church in Cincinnati, Ohio. It is a tremendous honor Fr. Joe has allowed us to share these great gifts with you – for greater holiness and knowing more and more about God. $10 |

Priestly Newsletter — 2000 #1 — CD. — Christ is Our Strength — Fr. Edward Carter, S.J. read it the year he died. It is so beautiful. "This brief passage contains one of the greatest lessons of the spiritual life. As we progress along our spiritual journey, we become increasingly aware of how weak we are in our—selves, but how strong we are in Christ. To experience our weakness involves suffering. The degree and kind of suffering can vary. The suffering can include the experience of the classical dark night of the spirit as described by St. John of the Cross. One of the main purposes of the dark night is to make a person keenly aware of his or her helplessness without God." quote by Fr. Carter from the newsletter $10 |
