Pray for Special Intentions
Prayer to be said at Noon Mass March 25th Feast of the Annunciation
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.

The Father said, "This is My beloved Son in whom I am well pleased, Listen to Him".
R. If a person doesn't know how to read, shouldn't they learn how to read. But those who couldn't read probably came from families that didn't know how to read and got by.
A baby has to learn to walk, it takes getting up when they fall. Sometimes they hit their head as they "wobble" around, but the child keeps trying until they learn.
When one learns much dysfunction in childhood they need to tell the truth about what needs to change in their learning to grow in relationships and love.
We were put here to learn how God has called us in our vocation. God intends us to help build His Kingdom and move ahead in love, in our vocation to grow more and more in the image of God.
God uniquely created us to give this love to the world. The devil said I will not serve.
We have a free will. A person that loves God like Mary, always says. "I will serve", "I will serve",
"I will serve".Jesus shows us the colors of the rainbow. It is so beautiful. Is God teaching us how important it is to see all the colors of the rainbow in our lives?
What if all we saw was black and white? What if everything was Yellow-tinted or pinkish-red?A person that is compulsive destructive in their behavior sees life in one way.
A "normal" person knows he is social and has relationships with many people, intimate, at the grocery, children, at church, at work.
A "normal" person wears many hats. They can be a mother, a teacher, drive a car, make food, make clothes, plant a garden, draw pictures. They are multi-functional and proceed ahead in accomplishing things.A person having compulsive destructive behavior can give into creating drama and more drama,
and never move to solve any problems or move ahead, if they refuse to socialize they can say to themselves "I need nobody to help me".When the great flood was over, there was the sign of the rainbow and God promised never to destroy the earth like that again.
Have we learned the message from the colors of the rainbow, that in our lives - we need to socialize and have relationships with God and others and live to help build the Kingdom of God.We need to see all the colors of the rainbow in our lives.
In baptism we receive an elevation of the capacity to love and know.
To love and know, supernaturally, to share in God's loving and knowing activity. This can be shown in seeing all the colors of the rainbow. The rainbow is a mystery, how beautiful it is. It usually comes after a storm. Think of the storm that flooded the earth at the time of Noah. The rainbow was a sign from God. Are we even recognizing Our Lady of the Rainbow–we are in a big storm!!!!Mary appeared in rainbow color in Clearwater. Clearwater looks very clean, I would think it is pure.
Mary showed herself in so many different ways and called herself "Our Lady of Clearwater".
In Baptism, we receive a sharing in God's life, our knowing and loving capacity is elevated, the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit dwells in our graced, baptized soul, we receive the supernatural virtues of faith, hope, and love.What do you think it is to have insight into the Divine Mysteries? The more we are filled with His life, the more we can see the colors of that mysterious rainbow in our lives, in the spiritual life.
What an opportunity we have, having been baptized.Question?
Can you see all the colors of the rainbow, can you see them there?
Who wants a black and white rainbow?If you couldn't read would you try and learn or would you be more and more stubborn to not even try and live, in this day and age, without reading.
Jesus came to earth to teach us about growing to be more and more in His image and likeness.
Jesus came to teach us.
The devil tells people they know it all!!Humility says let God fill you with His light. The Holy Spirit infuses wisdom, and counsel, and knowledge, and understanding, in our intellect, when we seek to have a relationship in unity with the Holy Spirit!!!
We have a free will!!
We can choose to see all the colors of the rainbow by letting God fill us - or seeing one way in black and white - or maybe not opening our heart and eyes at all.

R. There is mystery in the colors of the rainbow. The rainbow showed after the purification with Noah.
Old dysfunctions from generations past are like chains that need to be broken.Jesus: Know yourself man, let the truth be in you that you will live a holy life, dying to the ways not like Me.
A man had an ox that was chained to his door way. He could not go out to see the vastness of creation.
Mary Lou is stuck in the window, should she stay there?

R. Mary was conceived without sin.
Mary is the New Eve.
Sin entered the world with Adam and Eve.
Eve said "yes" to the devil.
She wanted to be equal to God.God has called handmaids, the spouse of Jesus.
They are to be servants like Mary.
Have "I will serve You, Lord" always on your lips.Baptism gives us a sharing in His life.
Our Knowing and Loving capacity is elevated in baptism.
We have a greater capacity to love.Mary said "I am the Immaculate Conception".
Disorder came through Eve's sin.
Distorted thinking came through this.
We need to Consecrate the world to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, Our Mother, conceived without sin.Revelation 12:1-2
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. She was pregnant, and in labour, crying aloud in the pangs of childbirth.
Mary crushes the head of the serpent.
Genesis 3: 14-15
Then Yahweh God said to the snake, 'Because you have done this,
Accursed be you
of all animals wild and tame!
On your belly you will go
and on dust you will feed
as long as you live.
I shall put enmity
between you and the woman,
and between your offspring and hers;
it will bruise your head
and you will strike its heel.'
Joyful Mysteries in Thanksgiving
The Annunciation
1. Luke 1: 26-38
In the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a town in Galilee called Nazareth, to a virgin betrothed to a man named Joseph, of the House of David; and the virgin’s name was Mary. He went in and said to her, ‘Rejoice, you who enjoy God’s favour! The Lord is with you.’ She was deeply disturbed by these words and asked herself what this greeting could mean, but the angel said to her, ‘Mary, do not be afraid; you have won God’s favour. Look! You are to conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you must name him Jesus. He will be great and will be called Son of the Most High. The Lord God will give him the throne of his ancestor David; he will rule over the House of Jacob for ever and his reign will have no end.’ Mary said to the angel, ‘But how can this come about, since I have no knowledge of man?’ The angel answered, ‘The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will cover you with its shadow. And so the child will be holy and will be called Son of God. And I tell you this too: your cousin Elizabeth also, in her old age, has conceived a son, and she whom people called barren is now in her sixth month, for nothing is impossible to God.’ Mary said, ‘You see before you the Lord’s servant, let it happen to me as you have said.’ And the angel left her.
2. At the right time in salvation history, God sent the angel Gabriel to come to Mary and ask her to be the Mother of God.
3. Mary was told "Be not afraid".
4. Mary always did the will of the Father, Mary loved the will of God. This was the Plan Mary lived by.
5. God gives us Mary, our spiritual Mother.
6. Mary is the spouse of the Holy Spirit.
7. We need to be more and more filled with the Holy Spirit. We pray to the Holy Spirit to work in us and fill us with Himself.
8. Mary loves us more than any earthly mother.
9. Mary is Our Lady of Clearwater.
10. We are baptized and water is poured over us. Dear God I surrender, do to me what you want. That is what Mary said. Mary is the most perfect handmaid of the Lord. Dear God, I am sorry for my sins. We don't know when God will call us from our place.
The Visitation
1. Luke 1: 39-45
Mary set out at that time and went as quickly as she could into the hill country to a town in Judah. She went into Zechariah’s house and greeted Elizabeth. Now it happened that as soon as Elizabeth heard Mary’s greeting, the child leapt in her womb and Elizabeth was filled with the Holy Spirit. She gave a loud cry and said, ‘Of all women you are the most blessed, and blessed is the fruit of your womb. Why should I be honoured with a visit from the mother of my Lord? Look, the moment your greeting reached my ears, the child in my womb leapt for joy. Yes, blessed is she who believed that the promise made her by the Lord would be fulfilled.’
2. Mary said." I am the Immaculate Conception".
3. God gives us free will, nobody can take away our free will, God wants us to freely love Him, to give ourselves to God.
4. Come to me Lord and Possess my soul.
5. Mary always put God first. Mary never sinned.
6. Mary is Mother of God, Mother of the Church.
7. Mary went to visit her cousin Elizabeth and Mary cried out the Magnificat.
8. "My soul doth magnify the Lord and my spirit rejoices in God, my Savior."
9. The child in Elizabeth's womb leapt for joy in Elizabeth's womb at the sight of Mary and Jesus in her womb.
10. God calls Handmaids and Servants of the Good Shepherd.
The Birth of Our Lord
1. Mary: Your Redeemer lives.
2. Mary: Jesus is your Savior.
3. Mary: Sing shouts of joy, let your hearts burst with joy at the great gift God has given to men.
4. Mary: Joy is NOT FOUND in the ugly things men have formed on this earth to eat my children’s hearts.
5. Mary: Joy is not found in sin.
6. Mary: Oh, people of the earth, He is the King. Jesus is the King of the Earth.
7. Mary: Oh, my children, in praying the rosary and using my meditations, Our meditations from Our Hearts, your hearts will burn with love of God.
8. Mary: Oh, my children, THIS IS JOY.
9. Mary: Oh, my children, let your hearts sing of the glory of God.
10. Jesus was wrapped in swaddling clothes and was laid in the manger.
Mary: My children, there was not room for my Son in the Inn and there is not room for my Son in your hearts. My children, open your hearts to Jesus.
The Presentation
1. R. Quote from Luke 2:33-35.
Luke 2:33-35 - The prophesy of Simeon
As the child’s father and mother were wondering at the things that were being said about him, Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother, ‘Look, he is destined for the fall and for the rise of many in Israel, destined to be a sign that is opposed–and a sword will pierce your soul too–so that the secret thoughts of many may be laid bare.’
2. Mary: You are waiting, you are searching, you are barren, my earth, for you have put your hope in that which will not bring you joy.
3. Mary: Many have banked on a sinking ship.
4. Mary: Sin has run rampant.
5. Mary: I cry out to my children. You do not hear me.

2. Mary: When will you find what you are looking for?
3. Mary: God is with you.
4. Mary: 2,000 years later, how is the real joy in your hearts?
5. Mary: My Son loved you to His death on the cross.
6. Mary: You smite Him, you ignore Him.
7. Mary: When will you find Him?
8. Mary: Your journey must be rooted in God’s will.
9. Mary: A plan, that of the Father.
10. Mary: A fallen race.
Mary: The joy: God the Father sends a Redeemer. 2,000 years later, you are so lacking in spiritual vision, my children.

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 |
