August 16th Holy Spirit Novena
Scripture selection is 
Day 2 Period II.

 

The Novena Rosary Mysteries 
for August 16th are Sorrowful.

Pray for Bob, Mike, Fr. Joe and Ken & other 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 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.   

 

August 15, 2023 - The Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary
 

Mary's sufferings were turned into joy!!
 


 

R. We are thankful to the
priest for bringing Jesus to
us in the Mass.

Mary brought Jesus to
Elizabeth in the Visitation.
Mary, Mother of God brought
Jesus to us.

Mary is Mother of the Church.
Mary is our spiritual Mother.
Mary is Mother of the
Eucharist.
 


 

R. Mary is perfect handmaid of
Jesus, obeying God's will.

When we go to her heart,
she takes us to Jesus' Heart.
 



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.

Mysteries of Light

The Baptism of Jesus in the Jordon

1. Mark 1: 9-11

It was at this time that Jesus came from Nazareth in Galilee and was baptised in the Jordan by John. And at once, as he was coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens torn apart and the Spirit, like a dove, descending on him. And a voice came from heaven, ‘You are my Son, the Beloved; my favour rests on you.’

2. Building the Kingdom of
    God, that is what it is all
    about.
3. Jesus came to this earth
    to spread the Good News.
4. Jesus' public life began
    with St. John the Baptist,
    baptizing Jesus in the
    Jordon.
5. John the Baptist
    prepared the way for Jesus.
6. The voice of the Father
    was heard.
7. This is My beloved Son in
    whom I am well pleased.
8. The Father showed His
    endorsement for Jesus, as
    the Son.
9. Jesus perfectly obeyed
    the will of the Father.
10. God is love. Heaven is
    for lovers.
 

The Marriage at Cana

1. John 2: 1-10  

On the third day there was a wedding at Cana in Galilee. The mother of Jesus was there, and Jesus and his disciples had also been invited. And they ran out of wine, since the wine provided for the feast had all been used, and the mother of Jesus said to him, ‘They have no wine.’ Jesus said, ‘Woman, what do you want from me? My hour has not come yet.’ His mother said to the servants, ‘Do whatever he tells you.’  There were six stone water jars standing there, meant for the ablutions that are customary among the Jews: each could hold twenty or thirty gallons. Jesus said to the servants, ‘Fill the jars with water,’ and they filled them to the brim. Then he said to them, ‘Draw some out now and take it to the president of the feast.’ They did this; the president tasted the water, and it had turned into wine. Having no idea where it came from—though the servants who had drawn the water knew—the president of the feast called the bridegroom and said, ‘Everyone serves good wine first and the worse wine when the guests are well wined; but you have kept the best wine till now.’ 

2. Jesus is the Bridegroom
    of our soul.
3. At Mass we receive Jesus.
4. Jesus performed the first
    miracle of His public life at a
    wedding.
5. Jesus changed water into
    wine.
6. At Mass God gives us the
    Body and Blood of Jesus.
7. The miracle is this gift in
    the Mass.
8. Jesus is our Savior.
9. We were created in the
    image and likeness of
    Jesus.
10. Sing: I am the Bread of Life


Building the Kingdom of God

1. John 18: 36-37

Jesus replied, ‘Mine is not a kingdom of this world; if my kingdom were of this world, my men would have fought to prevent my being surrendered to the Jews. As it is, my kingdom does not belong here.’ Pilate said, ‘So, then you are a king?’ Jesus answered, ‘It is you who say that I am a king. I was born for this, I came into the world for this, to bear witness to the truth; and all who are on the side of truth listen to my voice.’

2. God helps us build the
    Kingdom of truth and love
    and obedience.
3. Building God’s Kingdom
    takes relationship with God
    and God’s Plan.
4. Obeying God’s will means
    living God’s will in an
    interior commitment of
    living in surrender to God’s
    will, everyday, always.
5. Then we have God’s
    strength behind what we do.
6. Then God is operating in
    us in our lives, God is life.
7. Help me God to love in
    suffering and joy and as I
    meditate on this rosary,
    realize my strength and
    ability to live as you desire
    comes in my union with
    You.
8. Help me God. Help me to
    grow in love and surrender
    to Your will in my life.
    Help me God in the
    sufferings and joys to put
    Your will, always first, even
    in my weariness and trials.
    Help me to know it depends
    on You and not me.
    I love You with all my heart,
    Jesus, thank You for
    everything. I love You, so
    much, My God. Amen.
9. Come to me Lord and
    possess my soul… Sing
10. Building the Kingdom of
    God depends on me
    surrendering to God’s will in
    everything in great love.
    Look at Jesus carrying the
    cross and dying for love of
    us.
 

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.

-God's Blue Book, January 17, 1994

 

The Transfiguration

1. Mark 9: 2-8

Six days later, Jesus took with him Peter and James and John and led them up a high mountain on their own by themselves. There in their presence he was transfigured: his clothes became brilliantly white, whiter than any earthly bleacher could make them. Elijah appeared to them with Moses; and they were talking to Jesus. Then Peter spoke to Jesus, ‘Rabbi,’ he said, ‘it is wonderful for us to be here; so let us make three shelters, one for you, one for Moses and one for Elijah.’ He did not know what to say; they were so frightened. And a cloud came, covering them in shadow; and from the cloud there came a voice, ‘This is my Son, the Beloved. Listen to him.’ Then suddenly, when they looked round, they saw no one with them any more but only Jesus.

2. Jesus gave them a great
    gift to see this. We walk by
    faith, but such a gift as this
    helps us so much.
3. Help me God, help my
    unbelief, help me,
    strengthen me, Oh my God I
    need You.
    You give me strength,
    without Your help I cannot
    do this most important task,
    You call me to do.
    I am Yours, Lord, I want to
    have my life in You. I want to
    do the will of the Father.
    Strengthen my faith, God,
    please, send Your angels to
    help me through trials Satan
    makes very difficult
    sometimes. Teach me to
    love and put You first.
4. Jesus appeared
    transfigured, such a gift.
5. Our work depends on our
    surrendering to God.

6. Galatians 2: 19-20

...I have been crucified with Christ and yet I am alive; yet it is no longer I, but Christ living in me.

7. Sing: Give me your heart, Oh Jesus

8. From Pre-Blue Book I

32 Years Ago

November 1991

R. Dear Jesus,

Jesus: ...Listen to Me, be attentive for My voice and
I will speak and you will know it is Me. I will
give you your direction and you will not be
afraid and you will know what to do.

9. God the Father said:
    …Listen to Him!!!!


10. From Pre-Blue Book 1

Above April 16,1992
31 Years Ago

– hiding the truth is what allows it to
go on. Say for example: in an alcoholic or
dysfunctional family you are not protecting
the person but enabling them to continue
their problem.

Jesus: Be of a clean heart and you will not
have to cover things up – love one another
and try honestly to give each their just due
and there will be nothing to hide. All evils
shall be brought to light and all goods shall
be revealed in the day of reckoning. Fight

a good fight live a good life, love, be kind
and be ever attentive to the needs of those
around you and you will be blessed with
ever lasting happiness.

For I say unto you, many are called
but few are chosen, it is up to you to follow
the path of right. You can do My will or
reject My will. My will is the WAY, the
TRUTH and the life. The way to a long
lived happy life and to experience life is
through the truth. The truth in all things.
Do unto others as you would want them
to do unto you. Love one another and
cherish your precious moments you
have together.

 

Institution of the Eucharist

1. Mark 14: 22-25

And as they were eating he took bread, and when he had said the blessing he broke it and gave it to them. ‘Take it,’ he said, ‘this is my body.’ Then he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he handed it to them, and all drank from it, and he said to them, ‘This is my blood, the blood of the covenant, poured out for many. In truth I tell you, I shall never drink wine any more until the day I drink the new wine in the kingdom of God.’

2. From the Pre-Blue Book 1

April 30, 1992

R. Dear God, help me to do Your will, fill me
with Your love and Your goodness so

I can be like You and give myself
to others as You intend.

3. From the Pre-Blue Book 2

30 Years Ago

August 30, 1993 Before Mass

I Am Truly Present in the Eucharist

R. We have Christ truly present in the Eucharist, Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity. He is to be honored. He is to be loved and worshipped. Give honor and glory to God.

4. August 30, 1993 Before Mass continues

    Jesus: I am what you need. Do not fret or fume or be bothered. Come to Me. You must stay fixed in My most precious Heart. I am truly present in the Eucharist. I want to be honored. I want you to realize how blessed you are to have Me here in your midst. I am always here with you waiting, waiting, know what a treasure you have. Make Me the center of your life. Come to Me first and then be about your life. Many forget Me and wonder why their souls are so troubled. I am the way, the truth, the life. All your actions must have meaning in Me first. I am your top priority, other things should wait and I take priority over other things in your life. This is the key to peace and joy. If you want to unlock all I have to give you, you must make time for Me first, above all else. I am your God and you shall have no gods before Me, nothing should be before Me. Make Me the center of your life. I am the Alpha and the Omega. I am that for which you were created, any other order is out of order. Come to Me first and I will make your work light. All else is easy when I am guiding you. You walk a road in which I am your personal guide and you will not falter though the worst goes before you. Play for My honor, My child, I love you.

5. From the Pre-Blue Book 2

August 30, 1993 Monday

If They Only Knew of My Intense Love

Jesus: My child, I am the way, the truth and the life. He that abides in Me will have the light of life and the life I will give is My body and My blood in the Eucharist. All you who labor and are heavily burdened, come to Me and I will give you rest.

6. August 30, 1993 Monday continues

    I am waiting for My children to come and receive My precious gifts. They are so busy about their lives and don’t realize that I, God, am truly present in the tabernacle. Come to Me. All will work out. I am God and I wait for you. You My precious little ones. Where are you? What do you do? Oh, if they only had the whole picture. If they only knew of My intense love. The world cannot give you what you need. You fumble in darkness in this barren land. Come to Me and be filled, then do your tasks. All tasks should be rooted in My work. Your ultimate goal is to show others My love. My love can only be obtained from Me. When you are filled you have My love to give. I will fill you. Come and let Me make you whole. I have so much love for you. I long to be with you and share this love with you. Your love is intense, it is real, it is unconditional. I love you with all your faults and shortcomings. I pick you up when you are down and put you on solid ground. I lick your wounds and hold your little body in My arms. I am the tenderest of all Hearts. I never leave. I am always waiting for you to talk to Me and tell Me your heart’s desires. I love you as no lover ever has because I am the one true God.

7. August 30, 1993 Monday continues

    Why do you look elsewhere for your answers? Why do you not realize how real I am? I am a Person who longs to be with you but you do not come to Me. I stay by your side and you do not talk to Me. I love you My children. Come to Me, come always to Me. I am there My little ones. You look in dark corners for the light. You must go to the light to find the light. I am always there. You move from Me. I do not move from you. I am the God of your Fathers. I created the world. Why would you go to man for your answers when I am God who waits for you? You fumble around and are never satisfied. Man will never satisfy you. You were created for Me and I will fill your hungry soul. I am your God.

8. August 30, 1993 Monday continues

    I walk everywhere you go. You never go alone. Cling to the God who loves you with the Heart of God. No man can even come close to God’s love. Look no more to this barren desert for what you seek. Turn your hearts over to Me and let Me fill you with My love. My love is not the love the world gives. The world cannot love like Me. God loves you with Divine love.

9. August 30, 1993 Monday continues

    You are indeed favored My little ones to be loved by God with such intensity. Why do you look elsewhere for that which only I can give?

10. A Prayer for Intimacy with Lamb, the Bridegroom of the Soul

     Oh Lamb of God, Who take away the sins of the world, come and act on my soul most intimately. I surrender myself, as I ask for the grace to let go, to just be as I exist in You and You act most intimately on my soul. You are the Initiator. I am the soul waiting Your favors as You act in me. I love You. I adore You. I worship You. Come and possess my soul with Your Divine Grace, as I experience You most intimately.

 

A Prayer before the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass

    Let me be a holy sacrifice and unite with God in the sacrament of His greatest love.

    I want to be one in Him in this act of love, where He gives Himself to me and I give myself as a sacrifice to Him. Let me be a holy sacrifice as I become one with Him in this my act of greatest love to Him.

    Let me unite with Him more, that I may more deeply love Him. May I help make reparation to His adorable Heart and the heart of His Mother, Mary. With greatest love, I offer myself to You and pray that You will accept my sacrifice of greatest love. I give myself to You and unite in Your gift of Yourself to me. Come and possess my soul.

    Cleanse me, strengthen me, heal me. Dear Holy Spirit act in the heart of Mary to make me more and more like Jesus.

    Father, I offer this my sacrifice, myself united to Jesus in the Holy Spirit to You. Help me to love God more deeply in this act of my greatest love.

    Give me the grace to grow in my knowledge, love and service of You and for this to be my greatest participation in the Mass. Give me the greatest graces to love You so deeply in this Mass, You who are so worthy of my love.

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
