Prayer for Grace for Election and 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. Sin brings disorder
God works in purity.

When Adam and Eve
sinned, disorder entered
the world.

Sin has consequences.
Spread the blood of Jesus,

Cast the devil out.
Consecrate your hearts,
your homes, the Church
and the world to Jesus
and Mary.

Sin brings disorder.

God brings harmony
and peace, unity and
love.

God builds a home, a
family, order brings
peace and love. (You
are welcome here)
Disorder, tearing apart
tears apart the home,
brings destruction, no
one is welcome,
demons want division,
isolation, destruction,
chaos.

Putting God First.

Consecration to Jesus
and Mary is the right
order.

God must be first, not
the other way around.

Order.
 

Do 9 Hail Marys

Don’t try to make
yourself equal to God
God is first
This is order
Don’t live in disorder
God is above
We are under God
Order brings tranquility,

Disorder chaos,
confusion, destruction,
disorder, things break,
Disorder - sin - willful

Putting your will before
God’s
Disorder!!!

First Commandment

  1. I, the Lord, am your God. You shall not have other gods besides me.

 
The devil went to Eve in
the Garden to tempt her

I’ve been watching you
the devil said.
Sin isn’t sin anymore,
the devil says.
So Eve listened and sin
entered the world.
Disorder entered the world.
Disease entered the world.
Death entered the world.

Consecrate your hearts,
homes, places to the
Sacred Heart and
Immaculate Heart,
Mary and Jesus.

Sin brings disorder.
Consecrate to Mary and
Jesus.

Consecrate Your Churches, Home, and Workplace to Our Hearts

Jesus: I want you to consecrate the human race to Sacred Heart of Jesus. I want to be enthroned in all homes, churches, and businesses.

June is the month of the Sacred Heart. I want to be king and center of all hearts. I will keep My promises given to St. Margaret Mary of Alacoque. I promise all this from My most Sacred Heart. Consecrate your chapter to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Consecrate the church or room in which you hold your meeting.

Today is First Friday. I want you to circulate the message I gave to you on consecrating your homes to My Sacred Heart. Make booklets available for people to be able to consecrate their homes and businesses easily. Use the message I gave to you when you consecrated your home.

The Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph. Consecrate all homes and businesses to Our Two Hearts. Tell all to have displayed and honored, pictures of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. May and June are the months of Mary and the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Tell all to consecrate their homes to Our Two Hearts. I am the Sacred Heart of Jesus. On this day, the 5th of May, 1995, First Friday, I request that you spend the next two months encouraging all to do this consecration.

Gather your friends and say the prayers I have instructed you to say. Sing "To Jesus Heart All Burning" and "Immaculate Mary." May these Two Hearts of love give all members of the human race peace, joy and love in their hearts.

R. Jesus said He desires to be honored by men in the Blessed Sacrament.

Jesus: Circulate the Blue Book messages. They promote this devotion. How My Heart is filled with happiness by the souls who come to the tabernacle and sit with Me. I am Jesus Christ, I wait and long and thirst for My precious souls to come. The souls of men have turned cold. I want souls to come to daily communion and be with Me in front of the tabernacle.

Men's hearts have turned cold. They do not know what love really means. I want hearts that are filled with fire for love of God. Men's hearts have turned to stone.

You are to promote devotion to My most Sacred Heart. I want hearts that burn with love for My Heart. It is through Me that you will know the Father's love. I am the Way, I am the Truth, I am the Life.

Offer a holy hour for the indifference, ingratitude, and sacrileges committed against Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, the Sacrament of His greatest love.

R. He promises great graces to those who give reparation to His Sacred Heart and who tell others about offering reparation to Him.  end of May 5, 1995

 
R. Discern the spirits
Spread the Blood of Jesus

Cast the devil out
Make spiritual
Communions.


Sin brings disorder
God works in purity.

When Adam and Eve
sinned, disorder entered
the world.

Sin has consequences.
Spread the blood of Jesus,

Cast the devil out.
Consecrate your hearts,
your homes, the Church
and the world to Jesus
and Mary.

Sin brings disorder.

Can you imagine how
stress presses on us. If
someone is sick, we
can worry about them.
We can worry about our
children. We can worry
about bills and work
and trips and many
things going on. Now
we can imagine how
Jesus suffered in the
garden, knowing what
He knew.

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. So much of our agony
    many times is decision
    making, especially
    when someone has an
    illness.
3. We have to go
    through a process of
    discerning, if it’s illness,
    report the best we can
    to doctors and then
    trust in the diagnosis or
    not, maybe go for a
    second opinion.
4. Can you imagine if
    you knew everybody's
    sin and rejection and
    besides all that, having
    to suffer mental,
    physical and
    heartbreaking pain to
    pay for what everybody
    else did in their sins.
5. Jesus knew
    everybody's sins from
    the ugliest sin of malice
    and Gaul, and His love
    was so great for us, and
    His love for the Father’s
    will, He was willing to
    suffer for all these sins
    in abuse to His body,
    mind and heart
    because of His love.
6. What a friend we
    have in Jesus.
7. Jesus gives us Divine
    love.
8. In baptism, our
    knowing and loving
    capacity is elevated. Fr.
    Carter said we share in
    God’s knowing and
    loving activity.
9. But it’s a capacity
    God gives us and the
    virtues of supernatural
    faith and hope and love.
    But we have a free will
    to say “yes” to growth
    being more like Jesus,
    or saying "no" to these
    gifts.
10. It’s a capacity we
    are given, and grace
    which is His life in us.

 

The Scourging at the Pillar

1. Matthew 27: 24-26

Then Pilate saw that he was making no impression, that in fact a riot was imminent. So he took some water, washed his hands in front of the crowd and said, ‘I am innocent of this man’s blood. It is your concern.’ And the people, every one of them, shouted back, ‘Let his blood be on us and on our children!’ Then he released Barabbas for them. After having Jesus scourged he handed him over to be crucified.

2. Jesus' love for us is
    so great. They whipped
    Jesus and tore His
    flesh, He willingly paid
    for our sins, because
    He loves us so much.
    What a friend we have
    in Jesus.
3. Jesus knew all He
    would suffer before He
    suffered and for love of
    us He did it!!
4. He loves us so much,
    He would endure it for
    us.

5. 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.

6. Jesus said in the
    bitter passion, He is
    comforted by our
    prayer and acts of love
    today.

7. Act of Contrition

"O my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended Thee, and I detest all my sins, because I dread the loss of Heaven and the pains of Hell, but most of all because they offend Thee, my God, Who art all-good and deserving of all my love. I firmly resolve, with the help of Thy grace to confess my sins, to do penance and to amend my life. Amen."

8. Jesus sweat blood in
    the Garden, Jesus was
    a bloody mess beaten
    at the pillar, standing in
    His own blood.
9. Jesus wore the stripes
    for our sins.
10.They beat Jesus'
    precious face, His
    head, they beat Him
    tied to the pillar from
    head to toe.

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. Jesus was mocked
    as King of the Jews.
3. They loved harassing
    Jesus, spitting on Him,
    treating Him in disgust.
4. These men made a
    crown of thorns to
    mock Him as King of
    the Jews, then
    pounded on His head
    to put it on.
5. Jesus had holes in
    His head.
6. Oh Jesus I am so
    sorry, We have sinned
    doing our own will.
7. I love you Jesus, I
    love you so, so much.
8. Jesus is the King of
    heaven and earth.
9. Jesus' Heart is on fire
    for love of us.
10. God the Father
    created us to be with
    Him forever in heaven,
    God wants us to be
    more and more like
    Jesus. Jesus shows us
    love.
 

The Carrying of the Cross

1. Matthew 27: 32-34

The crucifixion

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. Jesus carried the
    heavy cross laden with
    the sins of the world.
3. It was so heavy
    Jesus fell under the
    cross 3 times.
4 They poked at Jesus,
    kicked Him, trying to
    force Him to get up.
5. Jesus was so weak,
    but His love for us is
    what helped Him
    endure the bitter
    passion.
6. Oh Jesus, I am sorry
    for our sins.
7. We identify our
    suffering with Jesus
    and unite it to the Mass.
8. This can help bring
    down great grace for all
    our needs and for the
    priests, the Church and
    the world.
9. They made Simon
    help Jesus carry the
    cross, Jesus could
    hardly do it, laden with
    the sins of the world.

10. A 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.

The Crucifixion

1. Mark 15: 24-38

Then they crucified him, and shared out his clothing, casting lots to decide what each should get. It was the third hour when they crucified him. The inscription giving the charge against him read, ‘The King of the Jews’. And they crucified two bandits with him, one on his right and one on his left.

The passers–by jeered at him; they shook their heads and said, ‘Aha! So you would destroy the Temple and rebuild it in three days! Then save yourself; come down from the cross!’ The chief priests and the scribes mocked him among themselves in the same way with the words, ‘He saved others, he cannot save himself. Let the Christ, the king of Israel, come down from the cross now, for us to see it and believe.’ Even those who were crucified with him taunted him.

When the sixth hour came there was darkness over the whole land until the ninth hour. And at the ninth hour Jesus cried out in a loud voice, ‘Eloi, eloi, lama sabachthani?’ which means, ‘My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?’ When some of those who stood by heard this, they said, ‘Listen, he is calling on Elijah.’ Someone ran and soaked a sponge in vinegar and, putting it on a reed, gave it to him to drink saying, ‘Wait! And see if Elijah will come to take him down.’ But Jesus gave a loud cry and breathed his last. And the veil of the Sanctuary was torn in two from top to bottom.  

2. They crucified Jesus
    with a thief on each
    side.
3. One thief was sorry
    and asked Jesus to
    remember him when he
    came into His Kingdom.
    The other thief was not
    nice and told Jesus if
    he was God to save him
    and Himself. That thief
    called the bad thief
    would not repent.
4. God is above us. The
    first commandment
    says: "I am the Lord thy
    God, thou shalt not
    have any Gods besides
    Me."
    Order - God is over, God
    is the Creator, we are
    the creatures. We are to
    obey God's Laws.
5. We have a free will,
    we can obey God or
    disobey God.
    There are 2 paths to
    follow, like the Good
    and Bad thief.
6. Jesus shows us, He
    obeyed His Father's will
    to His death on the
    cross.
    We have greater unity
    with God, the more our
    will is aligned with
    God's will. "He must
    increase, we must
    decrease.”
7. Jesus hung for 3
    agonizing hours to His
    death on the cross,
    Jesus paid for our sins,
    Jesus loves us so much.
8. The Mass is the
    sacrifice of Calvary,
    sacramentally made
    present.
9. As baptized Catholics,
    we can unite all we do
    all day to the Holy
    Sacrifice of the Mass.
10. Dear Father, we offer
    up all we do all day
    united to the Holy
    Sacrifice of the Mass,
    in the name of Jesus,
    in the Holy Spirit,
    with all the angels and
    saints and the souls in
    purgatory, through the
    powerful intercession
    of Our Mother Mary,
    we pray for all our
    intentions and for the
    priests, the Church
    and the world. Amen.

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

The night before Mary’s image head was destroyed.

Notes

    1. The Two Hearts and the Mass

(To be read by leader or a family member)

Jesus:

"My beloved friend, tell My people that they are living in the Age of the Two Hearts - that of My Heart and Mary's Heart. My people live in the initial stages of this great era. I call My people to take up their refuge in My Heart and My Mother's Heart. In Our Hearts they will become more and more transformed into My likeness.

"The greatest source for growth in devotion to Our Hearts is the Eucharist. I wish My people to attend Mass often, daily if possible. What a great gift I have given to My people in the Eucharist! Yet many of My people are indifferent to the treasures contained in the Mass. Think of it! My people are privileged to offer the Sacrifice of the Mass together with Me! And yet how many prefer to do other things rather than attend Mass. How this attitude offends My Sacred Heart!

"I long for My people to participate in the Mass and to receive Me worthily! Think of it! I, Who am your God, long to come to you each day! In the Eucharist I come to you in My Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity. Present within you, I long to take you close to My Sacred Heart, this Heart which is truly within you. The more you allow Me to do so, the more closely I press you to this Heart. I shower you with its riches. I abundantly give you great graces which increasingly form you in My likeness.

"I am Lord and Master! Please listen to My words. Pray, pray for a deeper understanding of the Mass. In union with Mary, approach Me daily in the Eucharist. I, your God, long to come to you. How much do you long to receive Me?"¹

2. SONG: I Love You Jesus

3. PROCESSION - to the enthroning of the Sacred Heart Picture

(All in attendance can be lead by the leaders and family to the place of the Sacred Heart picture.)

4. SONG: To Jesus Heart All Burning or I Love You, Jesus

5. PRAYER: Apostles Creed

All: I believe in God, the Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth; and in Jesus Christ, His only Son, our Lord; who was conceived by the Holy Spirit, born of the Virgin Mary, suffered under Pontius Pilate, was crucified, died and was buried. He descended into hell; the third day he arose again from the dead; he ascended into heaven; sits at the right hand of God the Father Almighty; from thence he shall come to judge the living and the dead. I believe in the Holy Spirit, the Holy Catholic Church, the communion of Saints, the forgiveness of sins, the resurrection of the body, and life everlasting. Amen.

6. Enthronement of My Sacred Heart

    (To be read by leader or family member)

We are gathered here to honor our King, Jesus Christ, the Son of God. He is our most honored guest. He loves us so ardently and wants to be King of our home and King of our hearts. We all join together and most graciously welcome Him in our midst. We love You, dear Sacred Heart of Jesus. We honor You this day and are privileged that You, God, love us so much.

Please help us all grow in our knowledge and love of You. We honor You. We praise You. We adore You, and we love You.

We ask You to come and dwell in our hearts. As our King and the center of our lives, we forever want to be with You, most Sacred Heart of Jesus, we love You so much.

Come and be with every member of this family in a special way. Guard us in our undertakings. Dear Holy Spirit, lead us to the on-fire love of Jesus' Heart.

Mary, our most loving Mother, as you carried Jesus in your womb, you who cared for Him as a child, you who forever stood by Him and walked with Him on Calvary, you, dear Mary, as you stood under His cross and suffered so for love of Him and us, you who held His lifeless body under the cross, you who saw His glorified Body after the resurrection and watched Him ascend into heaven, you, dear Mary, you who know this most Sacred, tender, loving Heart, place us so gently into His most Sacred Heart.

Protect and lead every person present and their families to this intense union with your Son. We pray for the priests the world over, Your special anointed sons, to lead all children to the love of Your most Sacred Heart.

May the Sacred Heart of Jesus forever reign in the hearts of all people through the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

We praise You, we honor You, our beloved Jesus. We tenderly love Your Heart so!

Dear Father, thank You for Your beloved Son. Thank You for Your gifts to us. We thank You for giving us a sharing in Your divine life through baptism. We are Your beloved children. Draw us ever closer to union with God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit and Mary, in communion with the angels and saints. Amen. ²

7. Images of the Hearts of Jesus and Mary

    (To be read by leader or family member)

Jesus:

"My beloved friend, tell My people that I desire them to have pictures or statues of the Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart in their homes. This will greatly help them to give honor to Our Hearts. All My churches and chapels should also have these images. I will bestow great blessings on all who heed My request. I am your Lord and Master. Please do as I ask." ³

8. Find Refuge in My Most Sacred Heart

    (To be read by leader or family member)

Jesus:

My dear child, I bless your home in a special way. May the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary ever reign in your hearts. I am the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Please spread devotion to My most Sacred Heart. Tell people to hang pictures of My Sacred Heart and My Mother's heart throughout their homes. I will bless in a special way any home that hangs My picture and that of My Mother, her Immaculate Heart and My Sacred Heart.

Read the promises of the Sacred Heart to people and circulate them among your friends. Tell them to pray to Us all through the day. Such devotion will be the key to your happiness now and in your everlasting life to come.

Tell people to carry pictures of My Sacred Heart and Mary's Immaculate Heart in their pockets and purses and to look at Our pictures when praying to us. When you are having a difficult day, reach for Our pictures and find refuge in My most Sacred Heart.

How deep is the love I and My Mother have for you? Our love is deeper than any human mind can imagine. Come into My Heart and be protected from all kinds of weather. The wind may blow and the fire of love may grow dim in your hearts, but it forever burns brightly when you are sheltered by My most Sacred Heart. If the wind blows and the rain comes, you will never lose the flame of My love if you have taken refuge in My most Sacred Heart.

Mary leads you to the closest union with Me. Go to Mary, see her, let her lead you deeply into My Heart. She loves you so. She is your most loving Mother. She is pure and tender of heart. It is through her you will experience such intimacy with Me. It is through her Heart that you are lead to the deepest union with the one, triune God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

I am your most Sacred Heart. I am Jesus, Son of God. I am a burning furnace of endless love, waiting to shelter you in My Heart. Come to Me, My beloved ones. I love you so. ⁴

(Song: I Am Your Sacred Heart)

9. Consecrate Your Churches, Home and Workplace to Our Hearts

    (To be read by leader or family member)

Jesus:

I want you to consecrate the human race to Sacred Heart of Jesus. I want to be enthroned in all homes, churches, and businesses.

June is the month of the Sacred Heart. I want to be King and Center of all hearts. I will keep My promises given to St. Margaret Mary of Alacoque. I promise all this from My most Sacred Heart. Consecrate your chapter to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Consecrate the church or room in which you hold your meeting.

Today is First Friday. I want you to circulate the message I gave to you on consecrating your homes to My Sacred Heart. Make booklets available for people to be able to consecrate their homes and businesses easily. Use the message I gave to you when you consecrated your home.

The Sacred Heart of Jesus will reign and the Immaculate Heart of Mary will triumph. Consecrate all homes and business to Our Two Hearts. Tell all to have displayed and honored, pictures of the Sacred Heart of Jesus and the Immaculate Heart of Mary. May and June are the months of Mary and the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Tell all to consecrate their homes to Our Two Hearts. I am the Sacred Heart of Jesus. On this day, the 5th of May, First Friday, I request that you spend the next two months encouraging all to do this consecration.

Gather your friends and say the prayers I have instructed you to say. Sing “To Jesus Heart All Burning” and “Immaculate Mary”. May these Two Hearts of love give all members of the human race peace, joy and love in their hearts.

Messenger:

Jesus says he desire to be honored by men in the Blessed Sacrament.

Jesus:

Circulate the Blue Book messages. They promote this devotion. How My Heart is filled with happiness by the souls who come to the tabernacle and sit with Me. I am Jesus Christ, I wait and long and thirst for My precious souls to come. The souls of men have turned cold. I want souls to come daily to Communion and be with Me in front of the tabernacle.

Men’s hearts have turned cold. They do not know what love really means. I want hearts that are filled with fire for love of God. Men’s hearts have turned to stone.

You are to promote devotion to My most Sacred Heart. I want hearts to burn with love for My Heart. It is through Me that you will know the Father’s love. I am the Way, I am the Truth, I am the Life.

Offer a holy hour for the indifference, ingratitude, and sacrileges committed against Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, the Sacrament of His greatest love.

Messenger:

He promises great graces to those who give reparation to His Sacred Heart and who tell others about offering reparation to Him. ⁵

		Guiding Light - Reflect on the Word Inspiring Homilies Covering Cycle B of the Litugical Year (2011/2012) $ 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
