Pray for Special Intentions
Consecration Prayer for Peace
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.
LIVE VISION OFMay 28, 2022
Matthew 12: 46-50
He was still speaking to the crowds when suddenly his mother and his brothers were standing outside and were anxious to have a word with him. But to the man who told him this Jesus replied, 'Who is my mother? Who are my brothers?' And stretching out his hand towards his disciples he said, 'Here are my mother and my brothers. Anyone who does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.'
R. We are to live as members of the family
of God – living His will –
living and dying in Him.
Carrying our cross.Deny yourself and follow Me - Jesus says –
Whoever wishes to save His life
will lose it –Matthew 18: 1-4
At this time the disciples came to Jesus and said, ‘Who is the greatest in the kingdom of Heaven?’ So he called a little child to him whom he set among them. Then he said, ‘In truth I tell you, unless you change and become like little children you will never enter the kingdom of Heaven. And so, the one who makes himself as little as this little child is the greatest in the kingdom of Heaven.
R. Humble yourself as a little child.The more we die to ourselves –
the more we become
as a little child –More childlike we are –
the more we are dependent
on God.
R. We should live each day –
as if it is our last!LOVE, LOVE, LOVE
The Christian life must be considered
as response to God's love!
Love of God, love of neighbor
love of self. 3 loves.Our salvation depends on how
we loved God, neighbor
and self.The 3 loves go together –
We can't leave one out!!
My ultimate goal is salvation –
I can't do this if I don't love
my neighbor –The devil tells us - see others as
enemies - pride, jealousy,
envy etc!The thing about human suffering
is – not that there is
too much –
So much is WASTED.Death / Resurrection
the Pascal Mystery –Suffering always leads to greater life.
We must die to the ways that are not
the Father's will – Live by
the Father's will.Transition to enter into glory –
we must die to those ways
not like Him.We must LOVE
God, neighbor, self!
They work together toward
what God wants of us!Denial of reality.
Some can live their whole life –
escaping - in morbid flight
from painful reality –ESCAPISM – immature flight from
painful reality –
Denial –Refuse the truth about reality
past, present, futureLiving is, living the truth –
Humility is truth –
truth about good and bad in us
Accountable for actions
Responsible for our vocation
before God –Not lying about deadly sins
we practice –
Living in virtue –Loneliness can come on how I
inflicted isolation on myself –Loneliness can be caused
by not properly relating
to God and others –We were created for more –
to have the fullness of life
in heaven –
there will always be some
loneliness on earth because
we were created for more – IN HeavenWe aren't satisfied here below –
Those who live escaping reality –
WASTE precious moments from God!God calls us to live in the moment –
Holding out, punishing others –
sitting on a pity-pot is SINFULWe are to live more and more –
the life of resurrection –
Being accountable for our time –
Being responsible to love –
God
Others
Self –I don't take a vacation from
God and His LAW –Every day is a gift to live the
Father's will in love –Every day to be alive –
not deny reality of my actions –
punishing others
hold out –Jesus says:
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
We must to live a holy life, LIVE in the –
Christian virtues

3. Love –We have a GOAL

1 Corinthians 13 Read entire chapter
Read First Letter of John
GOD IS LOVE
God LIKE
1 Corinthians 13
1st Letter of John
The Virtue of love is
participation in God's
loving activity –
above our human nature!
Romans 8: 5-9
Those who are living by their natural inclinations have their minds on the things human nature desires; those who live in the Spirit have their minds on spiritual things. And human nature has nothing to look forward to but death, while the Spirit looks forward to life and peace, because the outlook of disordered human nature is opposed to God, since it does not submit to God's Law, and indeed it cannot, and those who live by their natural inclinations can never be pleasing to God. You, however, live not by your natural inclinations, but by the Spirit, since the Spirit of God has made a home in you. Indeed, anyone who does not have the Spirit of Christ does not belong to him.
R.

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.

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.

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 |
