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.

Mysteries of Light in Petition
The Baptism of Jesus
1. Mark 1:7-11
In the course of his preaching he said, ‘After me is coming someone who is more powerful than me, and I am not fit to kneel down and undo the strap of his sandals. I have baptised you with water, but he will baptise you with the Holy Spirit.’
Jesus is baptised
It was at this time that Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptised in the Jordan by John. And at once, as he was coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens torn apart and the Spirit, like a dove, descending on him. And a voice came from heaven, ‘You are my Son, the Beloved; my favour rests on you.’
2. Ephesians 1:17-18
May the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, give you a spirit of wisdom and perception of what is revealed, to bring you to full knowledge of him. May he enlighten the eyes of your mind so that you can see what hope his call holds for you, how rich is the glory of the heritage he offers among his holy people,
3. God the Father endorsed Jesus, at the baptism of Jesus, Jesus is the Son of God.
We are to grow more and more in the image of Jesus, be sons and daughters pleasing to our Heavenly Father.
4. Do I see the light of the Holy Spirit working in me, am I docile to the touch of the Spirit of God - co-operating with God's plan for me in the building of the Kingdom of God?
5. Am I at peace with myself because I honestly am living as God intends me to be?
6. Do I do what I say I am going to do?
7. Are my hours and days lived to serve God's will in love? Am I loving myself in the good I do that God wants of me?
8. In the Prayer for Union it says - help me not to give into the distractions of the devil to take me from your work.
9. God has a Plan for our lives. Are we the sons and daughters that are pleasing to our Heavenly Father?
10. First to thine own self be true. I must develop as a mature, responsible, honest, person under the Plan of God - Being accountable for my actions and living in love as God commands us in the commandments.
The Wedding at Cana
1. Jesus began His public life at the Baptism of Jesus. Jesus performed His first miracle of His public life at the wedding Feast of Cana.
2. Jesus turned water into wine at the intercession of His Mother.
3. This was a wedding Feast. Jesus is the Bridegroom of our soul. Jesus gives Himself to us in the Eucharist. We eat His Body, we drink His Blood.
4. Jesus performed many miracles in His public life. The Mass is the sacrifice of Calvary, sacramentally made present.
5. Jesus wants us to focus on His power and ask Him for help.
6. God is All powerful.
7. God is All-Good.
8. Jesus is the Lamb of God.
9. Jesus is truly present in the Eucharist: Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity.
10. Jesus held nothing back, He gave the last drop of His Blood and the last beat of His Heart for our sins. Jesus loves us so much.
The Kingdom of God
1. Jesus is the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords.
2. Jesus was mocked as a King and crowned by thorns.
3. Jesus suffered for us, because He loves us so much.
4. Jesus wants us to love Him.
5. God is worthy of our praise and honor.6. Prayer for Strength and Light
We adore You, oh Holy Spirit. Give us strength, give us light, console us. We give ourselves entirely to You. Oh Spirit of light and grace, we want to only do the will of the Father. Enlighten us that we may live always in the Father's will.
Eternal Spirit fill us with Your Divine Wisdom that we may comprehend more fully insight into Your Divine Mysteries.
Give us lights, Oh Holy Spirit that we may know God. Work within the heart, the spiritual womb of the Virgin Mary, to form us more and more into the image of Jesus.
7. Prayer to Be One with God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit
We long for You, Oh Spirit of Light, we long to know God, we want to be one with Him, our Divine God. We want to be one with the Father, know Him as a Person most intimately. We want to know the beloved One, the Sacred Heart of Jesus, and live and dwell in Him at all times, every moment of our lives. We want to be one with You, Oh Spirit of Light, that You move in us in our every breath.
8. Prayer to Be One in Jesus
Let us experience life in the Sacred Heart of Jesus, so we can say as Saint Paul, "I have been crucified with Christ and yet I am alive; yet it is no longer I, but Christ living in me...." Let us live, united to the Mass, all through the day being one in Him. Let us be able to love and know in this elevated state of oneness with our God. We long for Thee, oh beauteous God, we love You, we love You, we love You. We praise You, worship You, honor You, adore You, and thank You, our beloved God, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
9. Prayer to Dwell in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary
We seek to be one in God, to live and dwell in the Hearts of Jesus and Mary, our little heaven on earth, to experience life in the all perfect, pure, sinless heart of our Mother. We want the Holy Spirit to move in us and to be united to Jesus as the Bridegroom of our souls and be a most perfect sacrifice offered to the Father at every moment as we unite in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass around the world to help in the salvation of souls.
10. Prayer for the Holy Spirit and His Gifts
Come Holy Spirit, come, come into our hearts, inflame all people with the fire of Your love.
Leader: Send forth Your Spirit and all will be reborn.
All: And You will renew the face of the earth.We pray for the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit, we ask for perfection in our souls to make us holy, holy souls likened to God.
Dear Holy Spirit, we give ourselves to You soul and body. We ask You to give us the Spirit of Wisdom, Understanding, Counsel, Fortitude, Knowledge, Piety, and Fear of the Lord.
Prayer for the Word Alive in Our Hearts
We know, dear Holy Spirit, the Word in His human nature was brought forth within the womb of the woman. We pray that His word will be brought forth in our hearts as He lives and dwells in us. We want the incarnation to go on in our lives. Dear Holy Spirit, work in us.
The Transfiguration
1. Jesus took Peter, James and John up Mt. Tabor and He was transfigured before them. They saw Jesus He was in the brightest Light.
2. The voice of the Father was heard: "This is My beloved Son in whom I am well pleased, Listen to Him." We see what the Father said at the Baptism of Jesus - "This is My beloved Son in whom I am well pleased."
3. Like matched bookends we see these words of the Father. First at the Baptism of Jesus, when Jesus started His public life, then toward the end of His Public Life, after the Miracles and Teachings of Jesus, the Father added - "Listen to Him (Jesus)".
4. The Father tells us, after all Jesus did, He is well pleased with His Son, and the Father said: "Listen to Jesus".
5. God wants us to grow more and more in the image of Jesus, we must try to be more and more like Jesus, we do this by studying Jesus' life, what He did and said.
6. We study the lives of Jesus and Mary in the rosary. Mary is the New Eve; Jesus is the New Adam!!!! In the rosary we have the mysteries of Their lives, we meditate on the mysteries of Their lives, we pray to the Holy Spirit to inspire us. We pray to the Holy Spirit to understand insight into the mysteries.7. Romans 8:14-17
All who are guided by the Spirit of God are sons of God; for what you received was not the spirit of slavery to bring you back into fear; you received the Spirit of adoption, enabling us to cry out, 'Abba, Father!' The Spirit himself joins with our spirit to bear witness that we are children of God. And if we are children, then we are heirs, heirs of God and joint-heirs with Christ, provided that we share his suffering, so as to share his glory.
8. The Apostles never saw Jesus like this. Seeing Jesus transfigured may have helped
them when they saw Jesus glorified after the Resurrection.
9. Moses and Elijah appeared talking to Jesus. God gives us His Love, His Sacred
Heart is burning and on fire for love of men. We cannot even imagine the beauty of our
own graced, baptized soul.
10. God's love fills my heart - He is Light. We must carry this love to others so they can
see His life in us.
The Institution of the Holy Eucharist
1. Jesus gathered at the Last Supper with His Apostles.
2. Luke 22: 19-20
Then he took bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to them, saying, ‘This is my body given for you; do this in remembrance of me.’ He did the same with the cup after supper, and said, ‘This cup is the new covenant in my blood poured out for you.
3. Jesus gives us the Holy Eucharist today.
4. Jesus is truly present in His Divinity and humanity in the Eucharist.
5. Jesus loves us so much; He gives us Himself in the Holy Eucharist.
6. The Bread of life is the Word and the Holy Eucharist.
7. We receive a sharing in Divine life in baptism, Jesus feeds this life
with Himself in the Holy Eucharist.
Jesus longs for us to come to Him and receive Him.8. A Prayer before the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass
Let me be a holy sacrifice and unite with God in the sacrament of His greatest love.
I want to be one in Him in this act of love, where He gives Himself to me and I give myself as a sacrifice to Him. Let me be a holy sacrifice as I become one with Him in this my act of greatest love to Him.
Let me unite with Him more, that I may more deeply love Him. May I help make reparation to His adorable Heart and the heart of His Mother, Mary. With greatest love, I offer myself to You and pray that You will accept my sacrifice of greatest love. I give myself to You and unite in Your gift of Yourself to me. Come and possess my soul.
Cleanse me, strengthen me, heal me. Dear Holy Spirit act in the heart of Mary to make me more and more like Jesus.
Father, I offer this my sacrifice, myself united to Jesus in the Holy Spirit to You. Help me to love God more deeply in this act of my greatest love.
Give me the grace to grow in my knowledge, love and service of You and for this to be my greatest participation in the Mass. Give me the greatest graces to love You so deeply in this Mass, You who are so worthy of my love.
-Mass Book, December 27, 1995

Patience and a desire to please the Father. Jesus showed us the way.

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 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 — 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 — 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 |
