The church needs to have the stucco replaced
and also the community building.
It is about $38,000 to repair it.
People pray in the church 24 hours a day.
We have prayed in there for 11 years.
The archdiocese gave the church to us
for this purpose for a small price.
Can you help us?

if we acknowledge our sins,
he is trustworthy and upright,
so that he will forgive our sins
and will cleanse us from all evil.
If we say, ‘We have never sinned,’
we make him a liar,
and his word has no place in us.
2 Peter 3: 1-9
My dear friends, this is the second letter I have written to you, trying to awaken in you by my reminders an unclouded understanding. Remember what was said in the past by the holy prophets and the command of the Lord and Saviour given by your apostles.
First of all, do not forget that in the final days there will come sarcastic scoffers whose life is ruled by their passions. 'What has happened to the promise of his coming?' they will say, 'Since our Fathers died everything has gone on just as it has since the beginning of creation!' They deliberately ignore the fact that long ago there were the heavens and the earth, formed out of water and through water by the Word of God, and that it was through these same factors that the world of those days was destroyed by the floodwaters. It is the same Word which is reserving the present heavens and earth for fire, keeping them till the Day of Judgement and of the destruction of sinners.
But there is one thing, my dear friends, that you must never forget: that with the Lord, a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. The Lord is not being slow in carrying out his promises, as some people think he is; rather is he being patient with you, wanting nobody to be lost and everybody to be brought to repentance.
1 John 3: 10
This is what distinguishes
the children of God
from the children of the devil:
whoever does not live uprightly
and does not love his brother
is not from God.

Come to Me in Your Pain
Jesus: Do not go only to man, most especially come to Me. I am the only One Who can completely minister to you when your heart is broken. The worst pains are the pains of the heart. Stay plugged into My source. Know I am here with you every minute, every second of your life, and I will be there always.
Come unto Me all who are weary and I will comfort you. Do not be afraid for I will gently show you the way of the Lord.
I will be your rock. I will be your fortress. I will not leave you ever. I am there. My Heart is an undying source of fire and warmth and power.
I am your power. I am your strength. I am your God. I am there every instant of your life.
R. I can never live the moments of this day again. When I go to bed, today is gone forever. I must choose to treasure each moment because it is the only moment I have and it only lasts one moment.
February 21, 1992
R. He told me - let go, relax, and let Him run the show. My most important job is being a light to the world - no tension, no anxiety.
January 17, 1992
Jesus: I am all
powerful
I am your strength
I am your God
I am there every breathe you take!!
You must stay plugged into My Power.
Without Me life is void, empty and
unproductive.
They wander a valley
of pain,
hiding —
they give their power to satan —
they think they are in charge and
yet they can be enslaved
to satan —
because of their pride
As "you" stay plugged into My power —
"They" give into satan
They weave a web of
their own making —
a web they are caught in
fallacious reasoning from the evil
one
impurities keeps them stuck.
They want power
because they feel a
loss of power — so they want
power over innocent others
How can you trust a liar —
What is a promise
from a man
who rocks with untruths —
full of sin
Some seek power over
others so
they like watching others
suffer.
You are plugged into My source —
You are plugged into
an endless
source —
You know My light —
You know the fire of
My love,
You know My warmth,
You know My ever vigilant heart —
My Heart is burning
for love of you —
I am your God —
You should have no gods before Me
I am here with you
now in your
heart —
I love you so much —
Come Holy
Spirit
Beg for the gift of Wisdom —
Beg the Spirit of God to fill you —
The devil wants your power —
Some people want to be
over authority,
but authority under God
is to be respected —
People who seek power
over
authority — seek problems —
they are challenging structure —
God has put in place —
DISORDER —
Where I put order —
Fallen man
DISORDER
My power never runs out!
It is an endless source of power
February 21, 1992
My dear Jesus,
Jesus: LET GO! RELAX — I am there
to run the show. Your most important
job in life is being the light to the
world — no tension, no anxiety —
look at your jaw, look at your
voice — pulled taunt like a
string pulled too tight — you
have pulled your throat tight
you are so tensed — you are GOOD
ENOUGH — LET GO — enjoy what
you do — no anxiety — do the same thing
without the pressure — walk and ride
the bike, it is good for you.
You are creating your own
anxiety and tension and taking it out
on your throat. What ever you
do is enough.
You have not taken the time
to write to Me because you have
not wanted to. You are being anxious
I can do more things in a minute
than you can in a week.
LET GO - TRUST in ME — be
with Me and turn it over — I will
not leave you orphaned. I will
be with you that is My Promise.
By name I have called you —
You don't need a doctor for your
throat — you need to relax and
let go — what does it profit a man
if he gains the whole world and
loses his soul.
I have worked miracles in your
life — LET GO — BE YOU —
love everyone around you and
take time for them. I will help you —
just take it slow, steady, and relaxed.
When you are tired rest — don't push
you are important. I will help you —
I love you. LET GO.
To sit by a quiet brook and listen
to God's birds chirp in the trees and
smell the freshness of the outdoor and
let go of school, of church, of work,
of the mess and just be with God and
feel the breeze on your face. You can
do that — I want you to — you are
choosing to not be serene —
You are choosing to ignore the
nurturing you need and I will give —
the warmth of the sun, the sound of
birds, the beauty of the trees — these
visions are alive in your mind — go
there, be there for a little while and
enjoy these things — they will nurture
you. See your children and spend the time
with them — these moments are gone
forever. LOVE them. I will
help you — I heal your chest —
your throat — if you want it
healed, let go, you are attacking
yourself — SO TIGHT are you —
LET GO and LOVE and RELAX —
Love

What is in the heart?
Is it pure?
Are we trying to have hearts like
Jesus and Mary?
Or have we given into the concupiscence
of the flesh to be clogged
vessels — hiding our impurities
and manipulating others to try
to teach others our impurities?
Christ was wounded for our sins.
We can hide our wounds like
trophies we hold onto and
hurt others in our impure
ways.
Jesus shows us His Heart that we
will sing the song
Give Me Your Heart Oh Jesus
Give Me a Heart like Yours.
A saying at dysfunctional recovery
groups is — "You are as sick
as your secrets"
Jesus died on the cross bare —
He came "Bare baby" into
the world
January 5, 1997
Jesus: BABY, BARE BABY, LAID BARE
Bare, Bare Baby, Laid Bare
Open yourself, Oh Jerusalem, your time is come you will be a light to the people in darkness, many will walk whence you come and the earth will be shakened and the light will come across a dark sky and enlighten their minds.
Oh stiff-necked people, you are so stiff in your ways, let the Spirit envelope you and lead you on your way.
A country of stiffs, a people of planning and prodding, of deliberating and wondering—you lack faith, Jerusalem, you lack faith in God.
Oh walk naked into the cold night, you are cold in your hearts and naked in your clothing—I clothe you with glory, I light your face with light, but you turn your cheeks to the darkness and stay stiff-necked in your hearts. Oh cold and dark hearts, reach for the light that you may know the glory that awaits the sinners and enlightens their minds.
end of January 5, 1997
The connection is in the heart —
There is perfect obedience,
chastity and poverty in heaven —
Obedience to God's will in love is
the key of the spiritual life —
The fault of the impure heart is
seeking dominance for dominance
sake —
Where as we see all must be
under God's feet as
in the scripture
1 Corinthians 15
1 Corinthians 15:20-28
In fact, however, Christ has been raised from the dead, as the first-fruits of all who have fallen asleep. As it was by one man that death came, so through one man has come the resurrection of the dead. Just as all die in Adam, so in Christ all will be brought to life; but all of them in their proper order: Christ the first-fruits, and next, at his coming, those who belong to him. After that will come the end, when he will hand over the kingdom to God the Father, having abolished every principality, every ruling force and power. For he is to be king until he has made his enemies his footstool, and the last of the enemies to be done away with is death, for he has put all things under his feet. But when it is said everything is subjected, this obviously cannot include the One who subjected everything to him. When everything has been subjected to him, then the Son himself will be subjected to the One who has subjected everything to him, so that God may be all in all.
For they will be all under His
feet in the end —
When we seek dominance over
authority we hurt ourselves
and our participation in God's
Plan — His grand design —
where in the end — all will
be under His feet as it says
in 1 Corinthians 15
Unity is in the heart.
The Father, Son and Holy Spirit are
3 Persons in One God —
Perfect love —
Thus the scripture
"Be perfect as your heavenly
Father is perfect"
Unity comes as in a body —
the heart pumps life to the
body
Consumed with love Christ
mounted the cross for
His beloved souls
His Heart was pierced and Blood and
water came forth Blood for
the Eucharist and water for
Baptism flowed out —
The life from the Heart of Christ
pumps life into His body —
We baptized Catholics are one graced people —
baptized and fed on His precious
Body and Blood —
The fluid should be so
flowing in us as we are
one in Him — filled
with His life in us —
His precious grace —
He died — Our Savior
Through His pierced
Heart the Church was born —
It is in spreading this devotion
to His Sacred Heart and Mary's
Immaculate Heart we unite to
the Holy Mass — the Sacrifice of
Calvary — Sacramentally made
present and His life flows through
us — uniting us to be this
stable force in the troubled
world —
Unity is in the Hearts of
Jesus and Mary — We live out our
baptismal commitment by
having this devotion of dwelling
deeply in oneness in Their
most pure and perfect Hearts
of love
"You are as sick as your
secrets" —
Jesus died bare on the
cross —
Let us die to our imperfect
ways to be more likened to
Christ "The first fruits" —
So we will help to bring
fruit to the Kingdom of
God
Not for vain glory —
Not to build a kingdom of
selfishness —
being enslaved to satan
When many in the world neglects the King of
Kings there is utter pandemonium.
God has made men unique, but they
are to be joined in this —
they are created by God for His
Holy purpose —
All obedient to His law and
commandments —
Weak people who do not want
authority over them
challenge authority —
they will couple with others
who are weak to fight
what is right —
Some people are against authority itself
If more and more people —
rather than following the
King of Glory begin their
own thing so they are
in control —
they have led people astray.
Listen to 1 Corinthians 15
1 Corinthians 15:20-28
In fact, however, Christ has been raised from the dead, as the first-fruits of all who have fallen asleep. As it was by one man that death came, so through one man has come the resurrection of the dead. Just as all die in Adam, so in Christ all will be brought to life; but all of them in their proper order: Christ the first-fruits, and next, at his coming, those who belong to him. After that will come the end, when he will hand over the kingdom to God the Father, having abolished every principality, every ruling force and power. For he is to be king until he has made his enemies his footstool, and the last of the enemies to be done away with is death, for he has put all things under his feet. But when it is said everything is subjected, this obviously cannot include the One who subjected everything to him. When everything has been subjected to him, then the Son himself will be subjected to the One who has subjected everything to him, so that God may be all in all.
We are to be under His feet —
But when Mary appeared at
Fatima and said you are —
offending God —
obey Him or there will
be World War II
I am the Queen of Peace —
they disobeyed
The devil is sneaky — he works
in secret — like the frog
ie. if a frog is thrown in boiling
water — he jumps out
If a frog is put in warm water
and then the water is made
more warm to boiling,
the frog will die in the water.
If order is constantly challenged
by aggressive people who
must win for their honor
and glory —
not God's will
What have they won?
Man thinks when he is
willful trying to be
over authority
he wins
in fact he loses
if authority is as God desires —
A man can be a slave giving
into satan —
disobeying God's rules
Some people deny that they are
imperfect —
they can become more and
more aggressive —
Seeking dominance for themselves
and then they wake up one
morning knowing —
All those around them in
an unruly world that
has gone astray —
They may think
"The world must be such —
that I am not obeying
authority"
because they don't want
any one over them
So they create confusion to
be in charge
Without rules
Without structure
Without order
There is disorder —
The disorder of the garden
is seen in animals
elements
male and female dominance
Who wins when you will do
passive-aggressive or
aggressive measures
to off set authority —
to control over authority.
The saying goes
"You are as sick as your secrets" —
Secrets against authority
is a ploy for seeking
dominance
Secrets against those in authority
weakens structure
When God has given us the Church
as the authority —
Some in the Church
challenge the teachings in
Rome
The Church in Rome — under
the Holy Father — is
the Pillar of Truth
God is letting us suffer —
When people oppose God's
order — laws —
commandments
We live in a world we make
of disorder and imperfect men
who may want authority
so no one is over them
1 Corinthians 15:20-28
In fact, however, Christ has been raised from the dead, as the first-fruits of all who have fallen asleep. As it was by one man that death came, so through one man has come the resurrection of the dead. Just as all die in Adam, so in Christ all will be brought to life; but all of them in their proper order: Christ the first-fruits, and next, at his coming, those who belong to him. After that will come the end, when he will hand over the kingdom to God the Father, having abolished every principality, every ruling force and power. For he is to be king until he has made his enemies his footstool, and the last of the enemies to be done away with is death, for he has put all things under his feet. But when it is said everything is subjected, this obviously cannot include the One who subjected everything to him. When everything has been subjected to him, then the Son himself will be subjected to the One who has subjected everything to him, so that God may be all in all.
How did the Apostles do it?
What if Peter fought with
John?
What if Peter and Phillip
were co-dependent?
God calls us to be strong
members of the body of Christ —
each empowered under God —
under just authority —
You see the ark of Don Bosco
vision
with the pope
with the Eucharist
with the Blessed Virgin Mary
You much obey God's law —
obedience
to God's commandments —
being under God
Are you willing to get off your
ladder to follow the teachings
coming from Rome in
the Church
"Bend the stubborn heart
and will"
A person growing in holiness
is not rebelling
against God —
Adam and Eve did this —
Look how we have
suffered —
Exodus 34: 6-7
Then Yahweh passed before him and called out, ‘Yahweh, Yahweh, God of tenderness and compassion, slow to anger, rich in faithful love and constancy, maintaining his faithful love to thousands, forgiving fault, crime and sin, yet letting nothing go unchecked, and punishing the parent’s fault in the children and in the grandchildren to the third and fourth generation!’
You are uniquely created --
Every person is different --
In knowing each person we share a new picture --
life in loving each for who they are --
seeing the creation of God
June 1992 - For healing
R Dear Jesus
I offer You my pain
for the sake
of souls —
Please come into my
heart and dispel
all hate, anger, "poor me" and replace
with your healing power of Your love,
please wash me with a bath of
pure water and fill me with
Your grace — help me enjoy my
present moments —
I have this moment and I let
go
and give it to You Jesus —
Jesus I want to cry —
Help me let go of the pain —
Let go — Let go, Cleanse me
with Your precious blood —
drip Your precious blood on me —
on the person or persons who
offended me —
all in the past
ancestors who taught any way that
have been passed on to me.
Bathe our families in Your
blood —
(siblings)
all relatives —
neighbors —
school mates
old relationships (people involved)
people at Church
people at work
people in the U.S.
The Church and the world —
God have mercy on the human
race
for we have sinned.
Help me to let go — to love — to forgive.
Jesus:
Let go, Let go — let go.
R.
I surrender to Thy will,
I give You my heart and
I ask You to hold it with
the fire of Your love and
heal any scars and wounds.
Bathe me in the bath of
spring water —
I give my day to You Jesus!!
I surrender and I know how
precious Your love is for me.
Jesus:
My dear child —
Think of the vast ocean.
See the vast ocean
Think of the water cleaning you
to make you more and more
holy and pleasing to Me —
Feel the gentle sway and listen
to the waves —
I created the ocean — I give
you the beautiful water —
I bathe you —
Know My Power.
Know My Love.
You are My precious child —
look at yourself —
created with such talents by the
Father.
I bathe you in My love
I bless your children
My love is endless
I am the Almighty God.
Focus on My Power.
My Power does not run out.
Let Me work in your heart —
Your job is clear now —
It is to let Me live in you
and minister through you —
to those around 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 in 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.
Jesus:
I am your strength
I hold your hand
I am the power.
I love you with the fire of My
Divine Love.
Recognize your pain —
Don't stuff it
Forgive
Let go — Embrace your pain and
Let go.
Be loving and Be likened to Me
If one person upsets you —
you cannot give into that —
you must think of your
mission, do the Father's will —
otherwise the devil can provoke you
with one individual and disturb
your peace.
Live to love.
You indeed are My child.
I will watch over you.
See the lilies of the field how
they grow
and who watches over them —
You are My child —
Much more precious than
all of these
I have bathed you in My
Blood
I will bring you to a special
place
of ownership of the land —
I am your rock
I am your stronghold.
You don't go alone —
Express the pain — then let go —
Forgive - love
I love you.
I know your pain and your
joy —
I have taught you in suffering —
I have led you to joy.
The Pain and the Joy.
You are loving and giving —
Let go of tension —
You know I love you.
You are precious to Me.
I have chosen you.
I love you with such love —
See the ocean.
Hear the waves.
I know your pain —
Let go to My hands —
Be My Heart to the world
Be My hands.
Love your brothers in the
world —
Be My love — My Heart
beating in the world —
Be Me to your children
Be their loving mother.
I am He who comforts you
Be not afraid
though you walk in raging
waters —
I will be there with My rod and
My staff and
I will hold you up —
You are held up by Me —
I will love through you —
I have put you on this earth today —
I love you, I love you, I
comfort you,
I am He who is your bridegroom
I love you in a special way —
cling to Me
I will be there with you.
I am your Power source.
I love you,
Jesus
