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.

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.

R. Dear Jesus,
If you ask us to do
something, why would
somebody willfully argue,
and do something else?
When God created Adam
and Eve, He gave them a
free will to obey His will or
disobey His will.
Eve listened to Satan and
disobeyed God’s
commands to them, then
she coaxed
Adam to disobey too.
With this sin entered the world.
But God loved us so much
He sent His Son Jesus, our
Savior and Redeemer.
We have a free will to love
God and follow Jesus or
disobey God who created us.
God the Father is the Creator,
we are His creatures.!!!
God created us to receive
love and give love.
God wants us to love Him.
Life goes on in petty pace.
Live in the moment.
Rejoice every day with life.
Oh God, thank You for gifts
and miracles.
Thank You for healing and
loving us so much.
Remember the joys of
laughter and the happiness
of a job well done.
Think of the gifts God has
given us.
Oh God, nothing is
impossible with God.
Trust in God, turn to Him.
Dear God I am dependent
on You.
I love You, adore You, praise
You.
Dear Holy Spirit fill me with
Your gifts and Your grace.
Amen.
R. Fr. Carter believed the
calling Jesus gave Him to
the end.
Mary was strong during the
Passion and Mary stood
strong by Jesus’ cross.
Mary was so strong by the Cross.
R. Think of the freshness of a
new morning, the sunlit day,
the radiant sky, the sweet
birds that sing - God gives
us so much
and how He cares for all of
these.
Praise Our Father,
Be thankful for God’s
blessings,
Open your heart to the
splendor of His precious
gifts He gives us in our
lives.
Children can see,
sometimes, simple things,
sunny days, the rainbow,
little flowers, butterflies,
pretty waters -
God calls us to be pure like
little ones, Child-like.
Matthew 11: 25
At that time Jesus exclaimed, 'I bless you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, for hiding these things from the learned and the clever and revealing them to little children.
R. Have we realized that we
are to appreciate the beauty
and gifts of God and be
thankful?
God cares for the lilies of
the earth, the birds of the
sky, the fish of the sea.
Dear God,
Help us to see with the eyes
of a child, love with the
heart resting in Jesus, our
Savior.
Jesus is kind and gentle in
heart.
Father, help us to trust GOD
WITH ALL OUR HEARTS
AND PUT GOD FIRST.
Lead us to Your loving
hands, God, we beg You
Amen.
R. God paints the earth and
gives us a beautiful sky.
Glorious Mysteries
The Resurrection
1. Mark 16: 1-11When the Sabbath was over, Mary of Magdala, Mary the mother of James, and Salome, bought spices with which to go and anoint him. And very early in the morning on the first day of the week they went to the tomb when the sun had risen.
They had been saying to one another, ‘Who will roll away the stone for us from the entrance to the tomb?’ But when they looked they saw that the stone—which was very big—had already been rolled back. On entering the tomb they saw a young man in a white robe seated on the right–hand side, and they were struck with amazement. But he said to them, ‘There is no need to be so amazed. You are looking for Jesus of Nazareth, who was crucified: he has risen, he is not here. See, here is the place where they laid him. But you must go and tell his disciples and Peter, "He is going ahead of you to Galilee; that is where you will see him, just as he told you." ’ And the women came out and ran away from the tomb because they were frightened out of their wits; and they said nothing to anyone, for they were afraid.
Having risen in the morning on the first day of the week, he appeared first to Mary of Magdala from whom he had cast out seven devils. She then went to those who had been his companions, and who were mourning and in tears, and told them. But they did not believe her when they heard her say that he was alive and that she had seen him.2. Sing: Glory, Glory, Glory Lord

The Ascension
1. We are called to spread the
Good News.
Acts 1: 6-9Now having met together, they asked him, 'Lord, has the time come for you to restore the kingdom to Israel?' He replied, 'It is not for you to know times or dates that the Father has decided by his own authority, but you will receive the power of the Holy Spirit which will come on you, and then you will be my witnesses not only in Jerusalem but throughout Judaea and Samaria, and indeed to earth's remotest end.'
As he said this he was lifted up while they looked on, and a cloud took him from their sight.2. Jesus says: "I'm alive, I'm
alive, I'm alive."
3. Jesus tells us to follow Him.
4. Give thanks to God for all
He has given to us.
5. "The stone the builders
rejected has become the
cornerstone."
Ref. Psalm 118:22
6. Jesus ascended into
heaven, but He remains
truly present in the
Eucharist.
7. Jesus gives us His Body
and Blood in the Eucharist!
8. Knowing this great gift,
how can we stop telling
others.
9. Without the priest there
is not the Eucharist.
10. Why isn't everyone
praying for the priests?
Prayer for Priests!!!
Lord Jesus, Chief Shepherd of the Flock, we pray that in the great love and mercy of Your Sacred Heart You attend to all the needs of Your priest-shepherds throughout the world. We ask that You draw back to Your Heart all those priests who have seriously strayed from Your path, that You rekindle the desire for holiness in the hearts of those priests who have become lukewarm, and that You continue to give Your fervent priests the desire for the highest holiness. United with Your Heart and Mary's Heart, we ask that You take this petition to Your heavenly Father in the unity of the Holy Spirit. Amen.
The Descent of Holy Spirit on the Apostles and the Virgin Mary
1. Acts 2: 1-4When Pentecost day came round, they had all met together, when suddenly there came from heaven a sound as of a violent wind which filled the entire house in which they were sitting; and there appeared to them tongues as of fire; these separated and came to rest on the head of each of them. They were all filled with the Holy Spirit and began to speak different languages as the Spirit gave them power to express themselves.
2. Let us be of one mind and
one heart.
3. Dear Holy Spirit outpour
Your grace to us.
4. Dear Holy Spirit, give us
Your gifts.
Come Holy Spirit come.
5.God the Father sent Jesus,
our Savior.
6. John 3:16For this is how God loved the world:
he gave his only Son,
so that everyone who believes in him
may not perish
but may have eternal life.7. Seek what is above!!
8. Holy Spirit infuse in our
intellects: wisdom,
knowledge and
understanding.
9. God we need Your grace,
we are sinners!! Help us.
10. Dear Holy Spirit help us
to know God the Father's
will.
Mary is so real.
So beautiful.The Assumption
1. Luke 1: 46-56And Mary said:
My soul proclaims
the greatness of the Lord
and my spirit rejoices
in God my Saviour;
because he has looked upon
the humiliation of his servant.
Yes, from now onwards
all generations will call me blessed,
for the Almighty
has done great things for me.
Holy is his name,
and his faithful love extends age after age
to those who fear him.
He has used the power of his arm,
he has routed the arrogant of heart.
He has pulled down princes
from their thrones
and raised high the lowly.
He has filled the starving with good things,
sent the rich away empty.
He has come to the help
of Israel his servant,
mindful of his faithful love
—according to the promise
he made to our ancestors—
of his mercy to Abraham
and to his descendants for ever.2. Call upon Mary.
3. Mary has powerful
intercession.4. Song: See the Eyes That Look at Mary

8. Mary pondered all these
things in her heart.
9. Mary was taken body and
soul into heaven.

without sin.

The Queenship of Mary
1. Revelation 12:1-2Now 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.
2. Luke 2:19
As for Mary, she treasured all these things and pondered them in her heart.
3. John 19:25-27
Near the cross of Jesus stood his mother and his mother's sister, Mary the wife of Clopas, and Mary of Magdala. Seeing his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing near her, Jesus said to his mother, 'Woman, this is your son.' Then to the disciple he said, 'This is your mother.' And from that hour the disciple took her into his home.
4. Sing: Hail Holy Queen
5. 1 Corinthians 15:54-57And after this perishable nature has put on imperishability and this mortal nature has put on immorality, then will the words of scripture come true: Death is swallowed up in victory. Death, where is your victory? Death, where is your sting? The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin comes from the Law. Thank God, then, for giving us the victory through Jesus Christ our Lord.
6. August 22, 2000
Today is the Queenship of Mary
R. The Queen mounts her throne among shouts of joy The angels surround this heavenly throne Her children love her and worship their God.
The Sacred Heart of Jesus reigns in the hearts of her children.
He is the King of their hearts.
She is the Queen of their hearts.
A New Adam, a New Eve are recognized by the once enslaved children of Adam and Eve.
A trumpet blare for one so fair, a blare of music for our starved ears.
From the Magnificat, Mary speaks with the lilt of the voice of one so pure and holy. (NOTE: Read this with the lightness of the voice of the Virgin filled with the Holy Spirit and in the humility of one so fair.
Among shouts of joy our Lady speaks liltingly in a heavenly voice and we gape at the sound of her sweet voice and behold the beauty of this maiden so sweet and fair.
7. August 22, 2000 continues
God the Father speaks:
Amen, amen I say to you My beloved Apostles of the Sacred Heart. You may worry and struggle now, but a King looks on you with the greatest love as you surrender more and more everyday to do My will that this day will come to your earth, the day of the Reign of the Sacred Heart.
Do not get caught up in the mysteries of the way men act and perceive things, but put your gaze ever more on the mystery of My Divine Son and how much He truly loves you.
You are caught in the wonder of the earth and the firmament. My beloved, so much more glorious is the insight into My Divine Mysteries.
My plan is given here to bring about the Reign of My Son’s Sacred Heart and the triumph of your Mother’s Immaculate Heart.
I am a God of justice and of right.
I am your heavenly Father.
I am the Carpenter, the One with the plan.
8. August 22, 2000 continues
You are but children of Mine, creatures of the earth, and yet My love for you is so great. I gave you My only begotten Son as One offered for your sins and, men, you smite Me, your Father.
You ignore your Mother when I give you such gifts in your churches of her presence forever with you and the Holy Spirit working with her bringing forth your holiness.
I painted with My hand your Mother pleading to her young ones, and she appears everyday, and you ignore this sign and gift I give you.
What more could convince you? You want another sign and another while you sheepishly continue your sinful ways.
My children, My children, help Me to reach your brothers, oh please, they have plugged up their ears and covered their eyes.
How is it your Creator cries to the creatures and they ignore Him?
Now the beauty of one so fair July 5, 2000, I painted as a golden wonder before you and allowed such photography that all might know Our heavenly presence when Mary speaks in the
Rosaries from the Hearts of Jesus and Mary. And My Son delivers, in these rosaries, the message I give to you as your heavenly Father.9. August 22, 2000 continues
Oh children of the earth, be attentive and listen to Me, I plead as your heavenly Father that your wills be aligned to My will and you serve Me.
Oh children of Eve, your Mother Mary cries to Me, for she pleads your case, and I have given in to her requests that the children be spared if they turn from their ways and love their God.
She wanted to come to you as the Woman adorned in sunlight by day and fashioned in a special way by nightfall in golden mystical light in the dark night, as her favored children sing so fervently songs of praise and love to God, and they sing to her, a Mother who has never forgot them.
Oh children, listen to Me and help Me reach your willful brothers through your fervent prayers. My Son gave Himself as a Sacrifice for your sins, meriting the graces available to you the sinful children of Eve, and you will not even pray after I have granted this special gift of Mary on the building.
Your eyes do not see her, or you would have changed your ways by now.
What sign would you respond to, My silly earth?
10. August 22, 2000 continues
I give you My Son with you in the Eucharist, and you do not treasure this gift as you should.
God remains with you today. Jesus, My Son, feeds you with His Body and Blood. He is truly present in His Divinity and Humanity. You need to pray as He has instructed, especially before the tabernacle.
Amen.
I am the Father, I have spoken, I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End.
Jesus speaks:
I am the Son of God, on this glorious feast sing songs of great praise to your God and love Him.
Unite to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit and pray to be possessed by God.
Mary is your Mother, she is the one, pure, spotless, human person. She was conceived without sin, you must listen to her, it is the Father’s will. You must be brought forth from her Immaculate Heart, her spiritual womb, as a child of God, a child of the light.
Let the scales drop from your eyes as you sing praise and see, as never before, the glory and wonder of your God.

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 |
