Dear Friends,
I give my heart to Jesus and Mary with you in love.
When Mary's image was knocked out what remained was an old grand piano someone who is now dead (old age) gave that was there grandma's. It did not work then.
It was painted and very, very old and I would worry about the legs giving out.
Jesus told me to replace it a while ago.
We had someone come and it never got out of here yet..
Jesus told me to buy a new piano by the alter, behind where Mary's image is to play when we have the services up there.
I can only do this if we have the money He says.
We will begin a fund for the piano behind where Mary's image was destroyed on March 1, 2004.
This is a lasting honor to contribute to this.
Thanks, RitaCall Doris – 513-477-4242

Dear Friend,
I give my heart to Jesus and Mary with you in love.
Jesus asked us to finish one room in the priest house, so a priest could stay there. We have been working on this room for 6 months. We need $3,000 for the carpet, shades and furniture. Could anyone help us with a donation for the priest house to complete this room?We have been working on the priest house for 6 years. Jesus would like a priest be able to stay there.
Thanks

Celebrating the Feast of the Annunciation Isaiah 7:
10-14; 8: 10 Yahweh spoke to Ahaz again and said: Ask Yahweh your God for a sign, But Ahaz said, ‘I will not ask. I will not put
Yahweh to the test.’ Listen now, House of David: Devise plans as you may:
either in the depths of Sheol
or in the heights above.
He then said:
are you not satisfied
with trying human patience
that you should try
my God’s patience too?
The Lord will give you a sign in any case:
It is this: the young woman is with child
and will give birth to a son
whom she will call Immanuel.
they will come to nothing!
Make what pronouncements you like;
it will not come about!
For God is with us!’
Hebrews 10: 4-10
Bulls' blood and goats' blood are
incapable of taking away sins,
and that is why he said, on coming into the world:
You wanted no sacrifice or cereal
offering,
but you gave me a body.
You took no pleasure in burnt offering'
or sacrifice for sin;
then I said, 'Here I am, I am coming,'
in the scroll of the book it is written of me,
to do your will, God.
He says first You did not want what the Law lays down as the things to be offered, that is: the sacrifices, the cereal offerings, the burnt offerings and the sacrifices for sin, and you took no pleasure in them; and then he says: Here I am! I am coming to do your will. He is abolishing the first sort to establish the second. And this will was for us to be made holy by the offering of the body of Jesus Christ made once and for all.
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.
R. Annunciation celebrated today –
In baptism we were
claimed by God to be a child
of God.
We must go through this time
and prepare for heaven.
God is asking us to trust Him,
put our faith in Him –
in the unseen God and walk on.
God tells us He will be with us.
When we suffer we are to come
before the cross and wait, not
punish others or hurt others,
but to endure as God is
calling us in suffering.
All of our ultimate satisfaction
is in filling the will of God –
We must play our lives
according to the Father's
Plan in love, not rebel
against God's will –
We must be faithful to God, love
and trust God.
We pray for the personal
intentions of all of us.

Adam and Eve disobeyed God –
Jesus came and paid the price for our sins.
Our ancestors offended God –
We have original sin on our souls.
Jesus gives us baptism, it takes away original
sin, but we have a wounded human nature –
Because of this there is tension
between men and women.
Man has tendencies toward anger and
jealousy, envy, pride,
covetousness –
If we want to go to heaven we
show God we have developed
virtue –
We were created in the image and likeness
of God
able to go to heaven –
We are here to grow in the
Spirit
Grow in the Spiritual life
Be faithful to the Spirit of God.
Be full of virtue.
OR we don't get the reward – of heaven.
Unrepented mortal sin can take a soul to hell.
Acting in pride, not growing in the
spiritual life, being jealous –
not loving and
Learning to work against love
in unloving ways
can lead us in the wrong direction
away from our heavenly reward.
We were created to love and live
harmoniously with each other.
Not give into tension we may feel
against our brothers.
Peace comes from
having Peace with God
If we don't have Peace with
God – we don't have peace
Peace I leave with you, My peace I give
to you – then He breathed on them
and gave them confession –
So they could confess and have
peace with God –
Jesus had peace on the cross
Tension between men and women –
Pride etc. – giving into the
deadly sins –
means we are going in the
wrong direction
R. We are here to
prepare ourselves
for heaven
Being FAITHFUL
to the Holy Spirit
not being tempted like
Eve to the evil spirit.

Reflect on the Word
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 - 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 - 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 - 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 |
