PROPHECY WARNINGS MEDITATIONS FOR ORIENTAL BRANCHES OF BLACK CATHOLIC CHRISTIANS--LATIN, COPTIC, AND ORTHODOX RITES IN THE AFRICAN HISTORIC AND GEOLOGIC DIASPORA.

 


METAPHYSICAL PROPOSAL ON THE MODE OF USING HAWTHORN


FOR THE COMING PLAGUES…HAWTHORN


(QUESTION FOR DISCERNMENT- Is this swine flu h1n1 sars? Bird flu? You do the research!)


As given by our BLESSED MOTHER MARYAM, August 5, 1880: "There will be a grave illness which human science will not be able to alleviate. This illness will attack firstly the heart, then the spirit, and at the same time, the tongue. It will be horrible.


The heat accompanying it will be a devouring fire insupportable and so intense that the members of the body affected will be red -- an unendurable fiery red. At the end of seven days this disease, sown like a seed in the field (incubation period) will spread everywhere rapidly and make great progress."


"My children, here is the ONLY remedy which could save you. You are familiar with the Hawthorn which grows practically in all hedges.


The leaves of the Hawthorn, not the wood, can arrest the progress of this disease."


"You will gather the leaves, not the wood. Even dry, they will keep their efficacy.


You will put them into boiling water and leave them there for 14 minutes, covering the receptacle so that the steam remains therein.


At the onset of this disease, one must use this remedy three times a day."


"This disease will produce a continual vomiting and nausea. If the remedy is taken too late, the part of the body affected will become black and in the black there will be seen a sort of pale, yellow streak."


NO ONE HAS TO BELIEVE ANYTHING! TEST. DISCERN THE SPIRIT!


A SLIGHT CHANGE FOR CHILDREN- 8 MINUTES)


Note: It is a tradition that the Hawthorne was the plant from which Pilate’s Roman soldiers wove the CROWN OF THORNS.

Daily Consecration to the Eternal Father


For the greater glory of God and for the salvation of all, I consecrate myself to You, O' Eternal Father, as one of Your faithful remnant. Behold, I come to do Your Will. With the help of Your Grace, I will keep Your Commandments. I will love and reverence You with all my heart, soul, mind and strength. I will love my neighbor as You love me.


I make this Consecration through the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary and the Sacred Heart of Your beloved Son, Jesus.


O' Eternal Father, send forth Your Holy Spirit to restore my/our broken image and likeness of You. Send forth also Your entire Heavenly Court, all the celestial choirs of Your angels and all Your Saints, to aid me/us in my/our struggle against all the forces of evil in this present darkness. Amen. (Adapted from the Father of All Mankind Apostolate).


The Lord's Prayer


How many of us have said the “Our Father” with so little thought, so little reverence, and so little fruitfulness? However, when we are open to the Holy Spirit within us and pray from the heart, look at what can happen:"


Our Father, (“Our” Father—not “My” Father - all of God’s children of all races, all colors & all creeds)


Our Father, (Abba, “Daddy” God)


Who art in Heaven, (and Who art in me)


Hallowed be Thy Name. (Holy be Thy Name, praised be Thy Name, thanks be to Thy Most Holy Name)


Thy Kingdom come. (now - on earth and in me)


Thy Will be done, (now - on earth and in me)


on earth as it is in Heaven. (at the Throne of God, with the Trinity, Our Lady and all the Angels and Saints)


Give us this day our daily bread. (the Bread of your Divine Will, the Bread of Life in the Eucharist, and the bread we need to eat to sustain our bodies)


And forgive us our trespasses(forgive us our sins, our imperfections and our hesitancies in the face of temptation)


As we forgive those (or as we choose not to forgive those) who trespass against us.


And lead us not into temptation,(for we are weak, we are worthless, we are wretched & we are nothing)


But deliver us from evil.(for it is only through your grace, not by our works alonenor our merit that we can escape eternal damnation)


Amen. (So I hope. So be it).




Prayer to the Blessed Virgin Mary Protectress of Africa


Holy Mary, Mother of God, Protectress of Africa, you have given to the world the true Light, Jesus Christ. Through your obedience to the Father and the grace of the Holy Spirit, you have given us the source of our reconciliation and our justice, Jesus Christ, our peace and our joy.


Mother of Tenderness and Wisdom, show us Jesus, your Son and the Son of God. Guide our path of conversion, so that Jesus might shine his glory on us in every aspect of our personal, familial and social lives.


Mother, full of Mercy and Justice, through your docility to the Spirit, the Counselor, obtain for us the grace to be witnesses of the Risen Lord, so that we will increasingly become the salt of the earth and the light of the world.


Mother of Perpetual Help, we entrust to your maternal intercession the preparation and fruits of the Second Special Assembly for Africa. Queen of Peace, pray for us! Our Lady of Africa, pray for us!

"All are to praise the Father"


Dear Friends,


Rules and Orders


So what is to be done, brothers? When you assemble, one has a psalm, another an instruction, a revelation, a tongue, or an interpretation. Everything should be done for building up. If anyone speaks in a tongue, let it be two or at most three, and each in turn, and one should interpret. But if there is no interpreter, the person should keep silent in the church and speak to himself and to God.


Two or three prophets should speak, and the others discern. But if a revelation is given to another person sitting there, the first one should be silent. For you can all prophesy one by one, so that all may learn and all be encouraged. Indeed, the spirits of prophets are under the prophets' control, since he is not the God of disorder but of peace. ... If anyone thinks that he is a prophet or a spiritual person, he should recognize that what I am writing to you is a commandment of the Lord. If anyone does not acknowledge this, he is not acknowledged. So, my brothers, strive eagerly to prophesy, and do not forbid speaking in tongues, but everything must be done properly and in order. 1 Cor 14:26-33, 37-40



Below you will find a message of Our Lord and Savior given to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him these words,


"The Holy Spirit is at work among many believers in the world. As it was in the time of St. Paul, the Holy Spirit gives gifts to various people. One might received the gift of tongues, another the gift to interpret tongues, and another might be given the gift of prophecy.


When people assemble to pray, let them use these gifts to enlighten and to encourage the people present and to give honor to the Father. All are to praise the Father for all the wonderful things He does for every person. Thank Him for your life, your health, for all the food you have to eat every day, thank Him for the air you breathe and for the sunshine that makes everything grow.


There are so many things you need to thank and praise the Lord for. So when you gather to pray give thanks to your heavenly Father and read psalms, a passage from the Bible, sing a hymn and give a prophecy and do it all in a proper and orderly way.


I thank all those who use the gifts given to them by the Holy Spirit and I bring them peace. I bless you all."

"Spend time with Me today"


Dear Friends,


The Gospel Teaching


Now I am reminding you, brothers, of the Gospel I preached to you, which you indeed received and in which you also stand. Through it you are also being saved, if you hold fast to the word I preached to you, unless you believed in vain. For I handed on to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the scriptures; that he was buried; that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the scriptures; that he appeared to Kephas, then to the Twelve.


After that, he appeared to more than five hundred brothers at once, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep. After that he appeared to James, then to all the apostles. Last of all, as to one born abnormally, he appeared to me. For I am the least of the apostles ... because I persecuted the church of God.


But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me has not been ineffective. Indeed, I have toiled harder than all of them; not I, however, but the grace of God that is with me. Therefore, whether it be I or they, so we preach and so you believe. 1 Cor 15:1-11


This morning the sun is shining bright but it is cool. It will go up past 20 degree Celsius this afternoon. We might get some rain later on.


I celebrated Holy Mass last evening at 7:00 p.m. at the little shrine of Our Lady of Prince Edward Island. I will celebrate Holy Mass today at the same time and tomorrow Holy Mass will be at 9:30 a.m. A good number of people are expected tomorrow morning. The Newsletter is ready and I hope to have it duplicated today and tomorrow and send it out next week.


Below is the message given by Our Lord and Savior and received by Joseph. Jesus spoke to him these words,


"My brothers and sisters, I am in great pain as I hang upon the cross for your salvation. They have pierced my hands and my feet and blood is flowing from my many wounds. The crown of thorns driven into my head causes Me great suffering and the blood is flowing into My eyes and all over My face.


I can hardly breathe in this position and I am offering Myself to the Father in sacrifice for all your sins. I am calling you from the cross to leave your sins behind and to come and follow Me. I suffered this horrible death because I love you and I want you with Me forever.


Come and look at Me on the cross today. See what your sins have done to Me and repent. I am the Son of God who came down to earth to show you the way to heaven. I opened the doors of heaven, which were closed after the great sin of Adam and Eve. I won for you many graces by My suffering and I give them to you if you ask for them. You need them because without those graces you cannot do anything good. Spend time with Me today."

[Fr. Doucette: 307] Mon, Aug 24, 2009: "Work at it every day

"Work at it every day"


Dear Friends,


The Way of Love


If I speak in human and angelic tongues but do not have love, I am a resounding gong or a clashing cymbal. And if I have the gift of prophecy and comprehend all mysteries and all knowledge; if I have all faith so as to move mountains but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give away everything I own, and if I hand my body over so that I may boast but do not have love, I gain nothing.


Love is patient, love is kind. It is not jealous, love is not pompous, it is not inflated, it is not rude, it does not seek its own interests, it is not quick-tempered, it does not brood over injury, it does not rejoice over wrongdoing but rejoices with the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.


Love never fails. If there are prophecies, they will be brought to nothing; if tongues, they will cease; if knowledge, it will be brought to nothing. For we know partially and we prophesy partially, but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away. When I was a child, I used to talk as a child, think as a child, reason as a child; when I became a man, I put aside childish things. At present we see indistinctly, as in a mirror, but then face to face. At present I know partially; then I shall know fully, as I am fully known. So faith, hope, love remain, these three; but the greatest of these is love. 1 Cor 13:1-13v


Here is a message from Our Lord and Savior given to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him these words,


My dear friends, you know the commandment that I gave you: Love one another as I have loved you. All your obligations towards God and your neighbour are fulfilled if you love them with all your heart. You are not to be jealous of your neighbour.


You will forget about yourself and love the other, as there is no self-love in true love. You will be ready to help all those who are suffering or in need of food or clothes. You will also pray for the sick, the handicapped and all those in need. You will be ready to forgive all those who hurt you in any way. You will study My life as it is given in the Gospels and work with My grace to follow Me. Remember, love is the perfection of all law but it takes a lifetime of work with My help to achieve this. Work at it every day. I love you.

Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 26 - FASTING WITH THE HEART


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 26 - FASTING WITH THE HEART


ITS TIME for a Faith Lift


"For on that day when her death was so close, she was not concerned that her body should be sumptuously wrapped or embalmed with spices, nor with any thought of choosing a monument or even for burial in her own country.


Of such things she gave us no command, but only desired to be remembered at Thy altar, which she had served without ever missing so much as a day, on which she knew that the Holy Victim was offered, by whom the handwriting is blotted out of the decree that was contrary to us, by which offering too the enemy was overcome who, reckoning our sins and seeking what may be laid to our charge, found nothing in Him, in Whom we are conquerors. Who shall restore to Him His innocent blood? Who shall give Him back the price by which He purchased us and so take us from Him? To this sacrament of our redemption


Thy handmaid had bound her soul by the bond of faith." (St. Augustine, writing of his mother St. Monica)


Mother Teresa - I for God and God for me. I live for God and give up my own self, and in this way God lives for me.


Meditations by Padre Pio - If you succeed in over coming temptations it has the effect of soap on dirty linen (AdFA, 158).


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - The less said the better sometimes!


"There are moments when it is very difficult to express one's views, for example, when a husband is asked how he likes his wife's new hat, or how he likes her new Italian haircut - which to him resembles unstrung spaghetti. Women, when faced with something they do not like, generally go into ecstasies of praise in order to cover up their real mind. Men generally descend to monosyllables or a long grunt. When a man gets mad at his wife at cards he generally calls her `dear' but with such a coolness as to make her think she is a `Frigidear'. Tact, in such difficult moments, does not mean lying, nor smoothness at the expense of truth, but it does mean circumspection."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -


At eleven o'clock Jesus said to me, My host, you are refreshment for My tormented Heart. I thought, after these words, that my heart would burn up. And He brought me into such close intimacy with Himself that my heart was espoused to His Heart in a loving union, and I could feel the faintest stir of His Heart and He, of mine.


The fire of my created love was joined to the ardor of His eternal love. This one grace surpasses all others in its immensity. His Trinitarian Being enveloped me entirely, and I am totally immersed in Him.


My littleness is, as it were, wrestling with this Immortal Mighty One. I am immersed in incomprehensible love and incomprehensible torture because of His Passion. All that concerns His Being is imparted to me also. (1056)


Up to now, Jesus has been bringing me to know about, and to have a presentiment of, this grace, but today He granted it to me. I would not even dare to dream about it. My heart is in ceaseless ecstasy, as it were, although outwardly nothing disturbs my contacts with my neighbor or my attending to various matters. Nothing is capable of interrupting my ecstasy, nor can anyone suspect it, because I have asked God to protect me from detection by people. And, together with this grace, there entered my soul a whole ocean of light, enabling me to understand God and myself. Amazement overwhelms me entirely and leads me as if into a new ecstasy [aroused by the fact] that God has deigned to descend to me, who am so little. (1057)

Icons are Byzantine-style paintings or representation of Christ, the Blessed Mother and other saints. Icons are a dominant religious artistic form in Eastern Churches. Icons often take the places of statutes when they are used.


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 28 - ST. AUGUSTINE


Mother Teresa - To possess God we must allow Him to possess our souls. How poor we would be if God had not given us the power of giving ourselves to Him; how rich we are now!


Meditations by Padre Pio - Padre Pio's Prayer After Holy Communion


Stay with me, Lord, for it is necessary to have You present so that I do not forget You. You know how easily I abandon You.


Stay with me, Lord, because I am weak and I need Your strength, that I may not fall so often.


Stay with me, Lord, for You are my life and without You I am without fervor.


Stay with me, Lord, for You are my light and without You I am in darkness.


Stay with me, Lord, to show me Your will.


Stay with me, Lord, so that I hear Your voice and follow You.


Stay with me, Lord, for I desire to love You very much and always be in Your company.


Stay with me, Lord, if You wish me to be faithful to You.


Stay with me, Lord, as poor as my soul is I want it to be a place of consolation for You, a nest of Love.


Stay with me, Jesus, for it is getting late and the day is coming to a close and life passes, death, judgment and eternity approaches. It is necessary to renew my strength, so that I will not stop along the way and for that, I need You. It is getting late and death approaches, I fear the darkness, the temptations, the dryness, the cross, the sorrows.


O how I need You, my Jesus, in this night of exile! Stay with me tonight, Jesus, in life with all its dangers, I need You. Let me recognize You as Your disciples did at the breaking of the bread, so that the Eucharistic Communion be the Light which disperses the darkness, the force which sustains me, the unique joy of my heart.


Stay with me, Lord, because at the hour of my death, I want to remain united to You, if not by Communion, at least by grace and love.


Stay with me, Lord, for it is You alone I look for, Your Love,Your Grace, Your Will, Your Heart, Your Spirit, because I love You and ask no other reward but to love You more and more. With a firm love, I will love You with all my heart while on earth and continue to love You perfectly during all eternity. Amen.


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - True passion takes guts and courage


"To revive passion in hearts, one must first understand it. Passion signifies receiving or suffering something or submitting to something. From this, follow two indispensable conditions for passion: knowledge, and some organic or physical change in our sensible nature."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - August 1937. After Holy Communion, I saw the Lord Jesus in all His majesty, and He said to me, My daughter, during the weeks when you neither saw Me nor felt My presence, I was more profoundly united to you than at times [when you experienced) ecstasy. And the faithfulness and fragrance of your prayer have reached Me.


After these words, my soul became flooded with God's consolation. I did not see Jesus, and there was only one word I could utter and that was: "Jesus." And after pronouncing that Name, my soul was again filled with light and deeper recollection, which lasted uninterruptedly for three days. However, outwardly I could still carry out my usual duties.


My whole being was stirred to its most secret depths. God's greatness does not frighten me, but makes me happy. By giving Him glory, I myself am lifted up. On seeing His happiness, I myself am made happy, because all that is in Him flows back upon me. (1246)

Quote of the Day - He who faithfully prays to God for the necessaries of this life is both mercifully heard, and mercifully not heard. For the physician knows better than the sick man what is good for the disease. -St. Augustine


Today's Tidbit - Late have I loved Thee, O Lord; and behold, Thou wast within and I without, and there I sought Thee. Thou was with me when I was not with Thee. Thou didst call, and cry, and burst my deafness. Thou didst gleam, and glow, and dispel my blindness. Thou didst touch me, and I burned for Thy peace. For Thyself Thou hast made us, and restless our hearts until in Thee they find their ease. Late have I loved Thee, Thou Beauty ever old and ever new. Thou hast burst my bonds asunder; unto Thee will I offer up an offering of praise. St. Augustine


MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY


for a day are taken from a daily meditation book based on the Messages of Our Lady of Medjugorje by Father Richard J. Beyer, Ave Maria Press.


AUGUST 28 - ST. AUGUSTINE


The following is Our Lady's monthly message for May, 1990:


Dear children, I wish to help you grow in renunciation


and mortification. In this way you will be able to understand the beautiful life of those who especially give themselves to me. Dear children, God blesses you day after day and wishes to change your life. Therefore, pray that you may have the strength to change it (Monthly Message May 25, 1990).


John the Baptist also called the people to change their live by turning from sin:


In those days John the Baptist appeared in the wilderness of Judea, proclaiming, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near"(Mt 3:1-2).


Reflection:


St. Augustine was born in Africa in 354. His young adulthood was a stormy period, including fathering a child out of wedlock. In his twenties he moved to Milan, Italy, where he became a professor of rhetoric, but his personal life continued to be stormy and wayward.


While in Milan, two things happened to him. First, he became increasingly unhappy with his personal life, and second, he became attracted to Christianity. It was in this frame of mind that he sat down one day and began to ponder his life. Suddenly de broke into tears and began to cry out to God: "and you, Lord! How long will you be angry with me? Forever? Why not at this very hour put an end to my life?"


Augustine said later:


I was crying out like this when, suddenly, I heard the voice of a child. It seemed to say, "Take and read! Take and read!" I stood up, for now the voice seemed like a command to read the Bible. I got a Bible and opened it, and the first words my eyes fell upon were from the letter of Paul to the Romans. They read: "Throw off the works of darkness and put on the armor of light; let us conduct ourselves properly as in the day, not in orgies and drunkenness. not in rivalry and jealousy. But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the desires of the flesh"(Rom 13:12-14).


When Augustine read this, he stopped. There was not need to go on. He says: "My heart was suddenly flooded with a light that erased all my doubts. And my soul was filled with a deep peace."


Application:


Today, as Our Lady asks, pray for the strength to continue your ongoing conversion


MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY


These thoughts for a day are taken from a daily meditation book based on the Messages of Our Lady of Medjugorje by Father Richard J. Beyer, Ave Maria Press.


AUGUST 26 - FASTING WITH THE HEART


Today Our Lady speaks of fasting "with the heart":


Dear children, today I call you to begin fasting with the heart. There are many people who fast only because everyone else is fasting. It has become an empty practice. And so I ask the parish to fast out of gratitude to God for allowing me to remain so long with you. Dear children, fast and pray with the heart (Weekly Message September 20, 1984).


In Luke's gospel, Jesus fasts in the wilderness:


Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit in the wilderness, where for forty days he was tempted by the Devil. He ate nothing at all during those days, and when they were over, he was famished (Lk 4:1-2).


Reflection:


At times, Our Lady of Medjugorje speaks of "fasting with the heart," a term meaning, first of all, accepting the invitation to fast with confidence in God, who will bring forth beautiful fruits from our efforts.


Second, it means to anticipate and welcome the spiritual dynamic that will begin to reshape our lives; this includes a deeper sense of repentance, a joyous realization of God's forgiveness, and a growing love, faith and hope.


Fasting with the heart also means experiencing a new freedom from material things, for we will begin to see the essential in life and not be mired in the superfluous. It means growing in a profound love for God and neighbor, a deepening joy in Christ, and new eyes to see as the Lord sees. Ultimately, to fast with the heart is a gift of grace, not a penance, from the heavenly Father.


Application:


Can you identify any changes that have happened to you since you began fasting? What changes would you like to see?


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 25 - ST. JOSEPH CALASANCTIUS


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 25 - ST. JOSEPH CALASANCTIUS


"Love the Immaculate with all your heart, fly often to Her by means of ejaculations, or simply with the thought of Her, and She will teach you how to return to Jesus a love without measure for the love which He showed on the Cross and in the most Blessed Sacrament of the altar." (St. Maximilian Kolbe)


Mother Teresa - There is no limit to God's love. It is without measure and its depth cannot be sounded.


Meditations by Padre Pio - My children, we can never prepare ourselves too much for Communion


Archbishop Fulton Sheen -


Honesty and innocence are lost too soon in growing out of childhood


"In regards insincerity, children do not have this duplicity because they are natural and it is acquired. If their mother tells them to tell a stranger at the door that she is not at home, they will invariably say, `My mother told me to tell you that she is not at home.' I know of a mother who, after an introduction to several ladies who had dropped in for tea, asked her child, `Now which one did I say was my best friend?' The child in the presence of all answered, `The one with the big teeth.' It takes some falling away from the childlike simplicity that purchases Heaven, before one develops the film of dishonesty."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -


Today, the Majesty of God enveloped and transpierced my soul to its very depths. The greatness of God is pervading my being and flooding me so that I am completely drowning in His greatness. I am dissolving and disappearing entirely in Him as in my life-source, as in perfect life. (983)


My Lord and my God, You know that it is You alone whom my soul has come to love. My soul is entirely drowned in You, O Lord. Even if I did not accomplish any of the things that You have made known to me, O Lord, I would be completely at peace because I would have done what I could. (989)


This evening, when I heard the hymn, "Good night, Holy Head of my Jesus," on the radio, my spirit was suddenly swept away to God's mysterious bosom, and I knew in what the greatness of a soul consists and what matters to God: love, love, and once again, love. And I understood how all that exists is saturated with God, and such a love of God inundated my soul that I am at a loss to describe it. Happy the soul that knows how to love unreservedly, for in this lies its greatness. (997)


Aug 25


Quote of the Day - In order to avoid discord, never contradict anyone except in case of sin or some danger to a neighbor; and when necessary to contradict others, do it with tact and not with temper. -St. Louis IX



MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY



AUGUST 25 - ST. JOSEPH CALASANCTIUS


We are called to evangelize through the Madonna's words and miracles at Medjugorje:


I am anxious for people to know what is happening in Medjugorje. Speak about it so that everyone will be converted (Special Message 1985).


And in Matthew's gospel, the risen Christ also gives his disciples a special charge:


Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you (Mt. 28:19-20).


Reflection:


St .John Calasanctius took this commission of Christ to heart in his evangelization and teaching of the young.


Born in 1557, he was ordained a priest and later dedicated himself to caring for poor children, founding a religious order pledged to that work. "This ministry," he once wrote, "is directed to the well-being of body and soul. At the same time that it shapes behavior, it also fosters devotion and Christian doctrine."


Application:


Deeply devoted to the Blessed Virgin, St. Joseph Calasanctius wrote this Trinitarian Prayer of Praise to Mary. Let us offer it now for all children that live in poverty:


Let us offer praise and thanksgiving to the Most Holy


Trinity who has shown us the Virgin Mary,


Clothed with the sun, the moon beneath her feet, and on her head a mystic crown of 12 stars.


Let us praise and thank the divine Father who elected her for His daughters. Our Father.


Praised be the divine Father who predestined her to be the Mother of his divine Son. Hail Mary.


Praised be the divine Father who preserved her from all stain in her conception. Hail Mary.


Praised be the divine Father who adorned her at her birth with his most beautiful gifts. Hail Mary.


Praised be the divine Father who gave her St. Joseph to be her companion and chaste spouse. Hail Mary. Glory be..


Let us praise and thank the divine Son who chose her for his Mother.


Our Father.


Praised be the divine Son who became incarnate in her bosom and there abode for 9 months. Hail Mary.


Praised be the divine Son who was born of her and was nourished by her. Hail Mary..


Praised be the divine Son who in his childhood was taught by her.


Hail Mary.


Praised be the divine Son who revealed to her the mystery of the redemption of the world. Hail Mary. Glory be.


Let us praise and thank the Holy Spirit who took her for his spouse.


Our Father.


Praised to the Holy Spirit who took her for his spouse. Our Father.


Praised to the Holy Spirit who revealed first to her his name of Holy Spirit. Hail Mary.


Praised to the Holy Spirit by whose miracle she was at once Virgin and Mother. Hail Mary.


Praised to the Holy Spirit by whose power she was the living temple of the ever blessed Trinity. Hail Mary.


Praised to the Holy Spirit by whom she was exalted in heaven above every living creature. Hail Mary. Glory Be.

PROPHECY WARNINGS MEDITATIONS FOR ORIENTAL BRANCHES OF BLACK CATHOLIC CHRISTIANS--LATIN, COPTIC, AND ORTHODOX RITES IN THE AFRICAN HISTORIC AND GEOLOGIC DIASPORA.

 


METAPHYSICAL PROPOSAL ON THE MODE OF USING HAWTHORN


FOR THE COMING PLAGUES…HAWTHORN


(QUESTION FOR DISCERNMENT- Is this swine flu h1n1 sars? Bird flu? You do the research!)


As given by our BLESSED MOTHER MARYAM, August 5, 1880: "There will be a grave illness which human science will not be able to alleviate. This illness will attack firstly the heart, then the spirit, and at the same time, the tongue. It will be horrible.


The heat accompanying it will be a devouring fire insupportable and so intense that the members of the body affected will be red -- an unendurable fiery red. At the end of seven days this disease, sown like a seed in the field (incubation period) will spread everywhere rapidly and make great progress."


"My children, here is the ONLY remedy which could save you. You are familiar with the Hawthorn which grows practically in all hedges.


The leaves of the Hawthorn, not the wood, can arrest the progress of this disease."


"You will gather the leaves, not the wood. Even dry, they will keep their efficacy.


You will put them into boiling water and leave them there for 14 minutes, covering the receptacle so that the steam remains therein.


At the onset of this disease, one must use this remedy three times a day."


"This disease will produce a continual vomiting and nausea. If the remedy is taken too late, the part of the body affected will become black and in the black there will be seen a sort of pale, yellow streak."


NO ONE HAS TO BELIEVE ANYTHING! TEST. DISCERN THE SPIRIT!


A SLIGHT CHANGE FOR CHILDREN- 8 MINUTES)


Note: It is a tradition that the Hawthorne was the plant from which Pilate’s Roman soldiers wove the CROWN OF THORNS.

Daily Consecration to the Eternal Father


For the greater glory of God and for the salvation of all, I consecrate myself to You, O' Eternal Father, as one of Your faithful remnant. Behold, I come to do Your Will. With the help of Your Grace, I will keep Your Commandments. I will love and reverence You with all my heart, soul, mind and strength. I will love my neighbor as You love me.


I make this Consecration through the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary and the Sacred Heart of Your beloved Son, Jesus.


O' Eternal Father, send forth Your Holy Spirit to restore my/our broken image and likeness of You. Send forth also Your entire Heavenly Court, all the celestial choirs of Your angels and all Your Saints, to aid me/us in my/our struggle against all the forces of evil in this present darkness. Amen. (Adapted from the Father of All Mankind Apostolate).


The Lord's Prayer


How many of us have said the “Our Father” with so little thought, so little reverence, and so little fruitfulness? However, when we are open to the Holy Spirit within us and pray from the heart, look at what can happen:"


Our Father, (“Our” Father—not “My” Father - all of God’s children of all races, all colors & all creeds)


Our Father, (Abba, “Daddy” God)


Who art in Heaven, (and Who art in me)


Hallowed be Thy Name. (Holy be Thy Name, praised be Thy Name, thanks be to Thy Most Holy Name)


Thy Kingdom come. (now - on earth and in me)


Thy Will be done, (now - on earth and in me)


on earth as it is in Heaven. (at the Throne of God, with the Trinity, Our Lady and all the Angels and Saints)


Give us this day our daily bread. (the Bread of your Divine Will, the Bread of Life in the Eucharist, and the bread we need to eat to sustain our bodies)


And forgive us our trespasses(forgive us our sins, our imperfections and our hesitancies in the face of temptation)


As we forgive those (or as we choose not to forgive those) who trespass against us.


And lead us not into temptation,(for we are weak, we are worthless, we are wretched & we are nothing)


But deliver us from evil.(for it is only through your grace, not by our works alonenor our merit that we can escape eternal damnation)


Amen. (So I hope. So be it).




Prayer to the Blessed Virgin Mary Protectress of Africa


Holy Mary, Mother of God, Protectress of Africa, you have given to the world the true Light, Jesus Christ. Through your obedience to the Father and the grace of the Holy Spirit, you have given us the source of our reconciliation and our justice, Jesus Christ, our peace and our joy.


Mother of Tenderness and Wisdom, show us Jesus, your Son and the Son of God. Guide our path of conversion, so that Jesus might shine his glory on us in every aspect of our personal, familial and social lives.


Mother, full of Mercy and Justice, through your docility to the Spirit, the Counselor, obtain for us the grace to be witnesses of the Risen Lord, so that we will increasingly become the salt of the earth and the light of the world.


Mother of Perpetual Help, we entrust to your maternal intercession the preparation and fruits of the Second Special Assembly for Africa. Queen of Peace, pray for us! Our Lady of Africa, pray for us!

"All are to praise the Father"


Dear Friends,


Rules and Orders


So what is to be done, brothers? When you assemble, one has a psalm, another an instruction, a revelation, a tongue, or an interpretation. Everything should be done for building up. If anyone speaks in a tongue, let it be two or at most three, and each in turn, and one should interpret. But if there is no interpreter, the person should keep silent in the church and speak to himself and to God.


Two or three prophets should speak, and the others discern. But if a revelation is given to another person sitting there, the first one should be silent. For you can all prophesy one by one, so that all may learn and all be encouraged. Indeed, the spirits of prophets are under the prophets' control, since he is not the God of disorder but of peace. ... If anyone thinks that he is a prophet or a spiritual person, he should recognize that what I am writing to you is a commandment of the Lord. If anyone does not acknowledge this, he is not acknowledged. So, my brothers, strive eagerly to prophesy, and do not forbid speaking in tongues, but everything must be done properly and in order. 1 Cor 14:26-33, 37-40



Below you will find a message of Our Lord and Savior given to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him these words,


"The Holy Spirit is at work among many believers in the world. As it was in the time of St. Paul, the Holy Spirit gives gifts to various people. One might received the gift of tongues, another the gift to interpret tongues, and another might be given the gift of prophecy.


When people assemble to pray, let them use these gifts to enlighten and to encourage the people present and to give honor to the Father. All are to praise the Father for all the wonderful things He does for every person. Thank Him for your life, your health, for all the food you have to eat every day, thank Him for the air you breathe and for the sunshine that makes everything grow.


There are so many things you need to thank and praise the Lord for. So when you gather to pray give thanks to your heavenly Father and read psalms, a passage from the Bible, sing a hymn and give a prophecy and do it all in a proper and orderly way.


I thank all those who use the gifts given to them by the Holy Spirit and I bring them peace. I bless you all."


Father Melvin August 26, 2009

"Spend time with Me today"


Dear Friends,


The Gospel Teaching


Now I am reminding you, brothers, of the Gospel I preached to you, which you indeed received and in which you also stand. Through it you are also being saved, if you hold fast to the word I preached to you, unless you believed in vain. For I handed on to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the scriptures; that he was buried; that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the scriptures; that he appeared to Kephas, then to the Twelve.


After that, he appeared to more than five hundred brothers at once, most of whom are still living, though some have fallen asleep. After that he appeared to James, then to all the apostles. Last of all, as to one born abnormally, he appeared to me. For I am the least of the apostles ... because I persecuted the church of God.


But by the grace of God I am what I am, and his grace to me has not been ineffective. Indeed, I have toiled harder than all of them; not I, however, but the grace of God that is with me. Therefore, whether it be I or they, so we preach and so you believe. 1 Cor 15:1-11


This morning the sun is shining bright but it is cool. It will go up past 20 degree Celsius this afternoon. We might get some rain later on.


I celebrated Holy Mass last evening at 7:00 p.m. at the little shrine of Our Lady of Prince Edward Island. I will celebrate Holy Mass today at the same time and tomorrow Holy Mass will be at 9:30 a.m. A good number of people are expected tomorrow morning. The Newsletter is ready and I hope to have it duplicated today and tomorrow and send it out next week.


Below is the message given by Our Lord and Savior and received by Joseph. Jesus spoke to him these words,


"My brothers and sisters, I am in great pain as I hang upon the cross for your salvation. They have pierced my hands and my feet and blood is flowing from my many wounds. The crown of thorns driven into my head causes Me great suffering and the blood is flowing into My eyes and all over My face.


I can hardly breathe in this position and I am offering Myself to the Father in sacrifice for all your sins. I am calling you from the cross to leave your sins behind and to come and follow Me. I suffered this horrible death because I love you and I want you with Me forever.


Come and look at Me on the cross today. See what your sins have done to Me and repent. I am the Son of God who came down to earth to show you the way to heaven. I opened the doors of heaven, which were closed after the great sin of Adam and Eve. I won for you many graces by My suffering and I give them to you if you ask for them. You need them because without those graces you cannot do anything good. Spend time with Me today."


Father Melvin


[Fr. Doucette: 307] Mon, Aug 24, 2009: "Work at it every day

"Work at it every day"


Dear Friends,


The Way of Love


If I speak in human and angelic tongues but do not have love, I am a resounding gong or a clashing cymbal. And if I have the gift of prophecy and comprehend all mysteries and all knowledge; if I have all faith so as to move mountains but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give away everything I own, and if I hand my body over so that I may boast but do not have love, I gain nothing.


Love is patient, love is kind. It is not jealous, love is not pompous, it is not inflated, it is not rude, it does not seek its own interests, it is not quick-tempered, it does not brood over injury, it does not rejoice over wrongdoing but rejoices with the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.


Love never fails. If there are prophecies, they will be brought to nothing; if tongues, they will cease; if knowledge, it will be brought to nothing. For we know partially and we prophesy partially, but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away. When I was a child, I used to talk as a child, think as a child, reason as a child; when I became a man, I put aside childish things. At present we see indistinctly, as in a mirror, but then face to face. At present I know partially; then I shall know fully, as I am fully known. So faith, hope, love remain, these three; but the greatest of these is love. 1 Cor 13:1-13v


Here is a message from Our Lord and Savior given to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him these words,


My dear friends, you know the commandment that I gave you: Love one another as I have loved you. All your obligations towards God and your neighbour are fulfilled if you love them with all your heart. You are not to be jealous of your neighbour.


You will forget about yourself and love the other, as there is no self-love in true love. You will be ready to help all those who are suffering or in need of food or clothes. You will also pray for the sick, the handicapped and all those in need. You will be ready to forgive all those who hurt you in any way. You will study My life as it is given in the Gospels and work with My grace to follow Me. Remember, love is the perfection of all law but it takes a lifetime of work with My help to achieve this. Work at it every day. I love you.


Father Melvin

ITS TIME for a Faith Lift


"For on that day when her death was so close, she was not concerned that her body should be sumptuously wrapped or embalmed with spices, nor with any thought of choosing a monument or even for burial in her own country.


Of such things she gave us no command, but only desired to be remembered at Thy altar, which she had served without ever missing so much as a day, on which she knew that the Holy Victim was offered, by whom the handwriting is blotted out of the decree that was contrary to us, by which offering too the enemy was overcome who, reckoning our sins and seeking what may be laid to our charge, found nothing in Him, in Whom we are conquerors. Who shall restore to Him His innocent blood? Who shall give Him back the price by which He purchased us and so take us from Him? To this sacrament of our redemption


Thy handmaid had bound her soul by the bond of faith." (St. Augustine, writing of his mother St. Monica)


Mother Teresa - I for God and God for me. I live for God and give up my own self, and in this way God lives for me.


Meditations by Padre Pio - If you succeed in over coming temptations it has the effect of soap on dirty linen (AdFA, 158).


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - The less said the better sometimes!


"There are moments when it is very difficult to express one's views, for example, when a husband is asked how he likes his wife's new hat, or how he likes her new Italian haircut - which to him resembles unstrung spaghetti. Women, when faced with something they do not like, generally go into ecstasies of praise in order to cover up their real mind. Men generally descend to monosyllables or a long grunt. When a man gets mad at his wife at cards he generally calls her `dear' but with such a coolness as to make her think she is a `Frigidear'. Tact, in such difficult moments, does not mean lying, nor smoothness at the expense of truth, but it does mean circumspection."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -


At eleven o'clock Jesus said to me, My host, you are refreshment for My tormented Heart. I thought, after these words, that my heart would burn up. And He brought me into such close intimacy with Himself that my heart was espoused to His Heart in a loving union, and I could feel the faintest stir of His Heart and He, of mine.


The fire of my created love was joined to the ardor of His eternal love. This one grace surpasses all others in its immensity. His Trinitarian Being enveloped me entirely, and I am totally immersed in Him.


My littleness is, as it were, wrestling with this Immortal Mighty One. I am immersed in incomprehensible love and incomprehensible torture because of His Passion. All that concerns His Being is imparted to me also. (1056)


Up to now, Jesus has been bringing me to know about, and to have a presentiment of, this grace, but today He granted it to me. I would not even dare to dream about it. My heart is in ceaseless ecstasy, as it were, although outwardly nothing disturbs my contacts with my neighbor or my attending to various matters. Nothing is capable of interrupting my ecstasy, nor can anyone suspect it, because I have asked God to protect me from detection by people. And, together with this grace, there entered my soul a whole ocean of light, enabling me to understand God and myself. Amazement overwhelms me entirely and leads me as if into a new ecstasy [aroused by the fact] that God has deigned to descend to me, who am so little. (1057)

-- Remember that the Christian life is one of action; not of speech and daydreams. Let there be few words and many deeds, and let them be done will. -St. Vincent Pallotti


Icons are Byzantine-style paintings or representation of Christ, the Blessed Mother and other saints. Icons are a dominant religious artistic form in Eastern Churches. Icons often take the places of statutes when they are used.


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 28 - ST. AUGUSTINE


Mother Teresa - To possess God we must allow Him to possess our souls. How poor we would be if God had not given us the power of giving ourselves to Him; how rich we are now!


Meditations by Padre Pio - Padre Pio's Prayer After Holy Communion


Stay with me, Lord, for it is necessary to have You present so that I do not forget You. You know how easily I abandon You.


Stay with me, Lord, because I am weak and I need Your strength, that I may not fall so often.


Stay with me, Lord, for You are my life and without You I am without fervor.


Stay with me, Lord, for You are my light and without You I am in darkness.


Stay with me, Lord, to show me Your will.


Stay with me, Lord, so that I hear Your voice and follow You.


Stay with me, Lord, for I desire to love You very much and always be in Your company.


Stay with me, Lord, if You wish me to be faithful to You.


Stay with me, Lord, as poor as my soul is I want it to be a place of consolation for You, a nest of Love.


Stay with me, Jesus, for it is getting late and the day is coming to a close and life passes, death, judgment and eternity approaches. It is necessary to renew my strength, so that I will not stop along the way and for that, I need You. It is getting late and death approaches, I fear the darkness, the temptations, the dryness, the cross, the sorrows.


O how I need You, my Jesus, in this night of exile! Stay with me tonight, Jesus, in life with all its dangers, I need You. Let me recognize You as Your disciples did at the breaking of the bread, so that the Eucharistic Communion be the Light which disperses the darkness, the force which sustains me, the unique joy of my heart.


Stay with me, Lord, because at the hour of my death, I want to remain united to You, if not by Communion, at least by grace and love.


Stay with me, Lord, for it is You alone I look for, Your Love,Your Grace, Your Will, Your Heart, Your Spirit, because I love You and ask no other reward but to love You more and more. With a firm love, I will love You with all my heart while on earth and continue to love You perfectly during all eternity. Amen.


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - True passion takes guts and courage


"To revive passion in hearts, one must first understand it. Passion signifies receiving or suffering something or submitting to something. From this, follow two indispensable conditions for passion: knowledge, and some organic or physical change in our sensible nature."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - August 1937. After Holy Communion, I saw the Lord Jesus in all His majesty, and He said to me, My daughter, during the weeks when you neither saw Me nor felt My presence, I was more profoundly united to you than at times [when you experienced) ecstasy. And the faithfulness and fragrance of your prayer have reached Me.


After these words, my soul became flooded with God's consolation. I did not see Jesus, and there was only one word I could utter and that was: "Jesus." And after pronouncing that Name, my soul was again filled with light and deeper recollection, which lasted uninterruptedly for three days. However, outwardly I could still carry out my usual duties.


My whole being was stirred to its most secret depths. God's greatness does not frighten me, but makes me happy. By giving Him glory, I myself am lifted up. On seeing His happiness, I myself am made happy, because all that is in Him flows back upon me. (1246)

Quote of the Day - He who faithfully prays to God for the necessaries of this life is both mercifully heard, and mercifully not heard. For the physician knows better than the sick man what is good for the disease. -St. Augustine


Today's Tidbit - Late have I loved Thee, O Lord; and behold, Thou wast within and I without, and there I sought Thee. Thou was with me when I was not with Thee. Thou didst call, and cry, and burst my deafness. Thou didst gleam, and glow, and dispel my blindness. Thou didst touch me, and I burned for Thy peace. For Thyself Thou hast made us, and restless our hearts until in Thee they find their ease. Late have I loved Thee, Thou Beauty ever old and ever new. Thou hast burst my bonds asunder; unto Thee will I offer up an offering of praise. St. Augustine


MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY


for a day are taken from a daily meditation book based on the Messages of Our Lady of Medjugorje by Father Richard J. Beyer, Ave Maria Press.


AUGUST 28 - ST. AUGUSTINE


The following is Our Lady's monthly message for May, 1990:


Dear children, I wish to help you grow in renunciation


and mortification. In this way you will be able to understand the beautiful life of those who especially give themselves to me. Dear children, God blesses you day after day and wishes to change your life. Therefore, pray that you may have the strength to change it (Monthly Message May 25, 1990).


John the Baptist also called the people to change their live by turning from sin:


In those days John the Baptist appeared in the wilderness of Judea, proclaiming, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near"(Mt 3:1-2).


Reflection:


St. Augustine was born in Africa in 354. His young adulthood was a stormy period, including fathering a child out of wedlock. In his twenties he moved to Milan, Italy, where he became a professor of rhetoric, but his personal life continued to be stormy and wayward.


While in Milan, two things happened to him. First, he became increasingly unhappy with his personal life, and second, he became attracted to Christianity. It was in this frame of mind that he sat down one day and began to ponder his life. Suddenly de broke into tears and began to cry out to God: "and you, Lord! How long will you be angry with me? Forever? Why not at this very hour put an end to my life?"


Augustine said later:


I was crying out like this when, suddenly, I heard the voice of a child. It seemed to say, "Take and read! Take and read!" I stood up, for now the voice seemed like a command to read the Bible. I got a Bible and opened it, and the first words my eyes fell upon were from the letter of Paul to the Romans. They read: "Throw off the works of darkness and put on the armor of light; let us conduct ourselves properly as in the day, not in orgies and drunkenness. not in rivalry and jealousy. But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the desires of the flesh"(Rom 13:12-14).


When Augustine read this, he stopped. There was not need to go on. He says: "My heart was suddenly flooded with a light that erased all my doubts. And my soul was filled with a deep peace."


Application:


Today, as Our Lady asks, pray for the strength to continue your ongoing conversion


MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY


These thoughts for a day are taken from a daily meditation book based on the Messages of Our Lady of Medjugorje by Father Richard J. Beyer, Ave Maria Press.


AUGUST 26 - FASTING WITH THE HEART


Today Our Lady speaks of fasting "with the heart":


Dear children, today I call you to begin fasting with the heart. There are many people who fast only because everyone else is fasting. It has become an empty practice. And so I ask the parish to fast out of gratitude to God for allowing me to remain so long with you. Dear children, fast and pray with the heart (Weekly Message September 20, 1984).


In Luke's gospel, Jesus fasts in the wilderness:


Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit in the wilderness, where for forty days he was tempted by the Devil. He ate nothing at all during those days, and when they were over, he was famished (Lk 4:1-2).


Reflection:


At times, Our Lady of Medjugorje speaks of "fasting with the heart," a term meaning, first of all, accepting the invitation to fast with confidence in God, who will bring forth beautiful fruits from our efforts.


Second, it means to anticipate and welcome the spiritual dynamic that will begin to reshape our lives; this includes a deeper sense of repentance, a joyous realization of God's forgiveness, and a growing love, faith and hope.


Fasting with the heart also means experiencing a new freedom from material things, for we will begin to see the essential in life and not be mired in the superfluous. It means growing in a profound love for God and neighbor, a deepening joy in Christ, and new eyes to see as the Lord sees. Ultimately, to fast with the heart is a gift of grace, not a penance, from the heavenly Father.


Application:


Can you identify any changes that have happened to you since you began fasting? What changes would you like to see?


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 25 - ST. JOSEPH CALASANCTIUS


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 25 - ST. JOSEPH CALASANCTIUS


"Love the Immaculate with all your heart, fly often to Her by means of ejaculations, or simply with the thought of Her, and She will teach you how to return to Jesus a love without measure for the love which He showed on the Cross and in the most Blessed Sacrament of the altar." (St. Maximilian Kolbe)


Mother Teresa - There is no limit to God's love. It is without measure and its depth cannot be sounded.


Meditations by Padre Pio - My children, we can never prepare ourselves too much for Communion


Archbishop Fulton Sheen -


Honesty and innocence are lost too soon in growing out of childhood


"In regards insincerity, children do not have this duplicity because they are natural and it is acquired. If their mother tells them to tell a stranger at the door that she is not at home, they will invariably say, `My mother told me to tell you that she is not at home.' I know of a mother who, after an introduction to several ladies who had dropped in for tea, asked her child, `Now which one did I say was my best friend?' The child in the presence of all answered, `The one with the big teeth.' It takes some falling away from the childlike simplicity that purchases Heaven, before one develops the film of dishonesty."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -


Today, the Majesty of God enveloped and transpierced my soul to its very depths. The greatness of God is pervading my being and flooding me so that I am completely drowning in His greatness. I am dissolving and disappearing entirely in Him as in my life-source, as in perfect life. (983)


My Lord and my God, You know that it is You alone whom my soul has come to love. My soul is entirely drowned in You, O Lord. Even if I did not accomplish any of the things that You have made known to me, O Lord, I would be completely at peace because I would have done what I could. (989)


This evening, when I heard the hymn, "Good night, Holy Head of my Jesus," on the radio, my spirit was suddenly swept away to God's mysterious bosom, and I knew in what the greatness of a soul consists and what matters to God: love, love, and once again, love. And I understood how all that exists is saturated with God, and such a love of God inundated my soul that I am at a loss to describe it. Happy the soul that knows how to love unreservedly, for in this lies its greatness. (997)


Aug 25


Quote of the Day - In order to avoid discord, never contradict anyone except in case of sin or some danger to a neighbor; and when necessary to contradict others, do it with tact and not with temper. -St. Louis IX



MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY



AUGUST 25 - ST. JOSEPH CALASANCTIUS


We are called to evangelize through the Madonna's words and miracles at Medjugorje:


I am anxious for people to know what is happening in Medjugorje. Speak about it so that everyone will be converted (Special Message 1985).


And in Matthew's gospel, the risen Christ also gives his disciples a special charge:


Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you (Mt. 28:19-20).


Reflection:


St .John Calasanctius took this commission of Christ to heart in his evangelization and teaching of the young.


Born in 1557, he was ordained a priest and later dedicated himself to caring for poor children, founding a religious order pledged to that work. "This ministry," he once wrote, "is directed to the well-being of body and soul. At the same time that it shapes behavior, it also fosters devotion and Christian doctrine."


Application:


Deeply devoted to the Blessed Virgin, St. Joseph Calasanctius wrote this Trinitarian Prayer of Praise to Mary. Let us offer it now for all children that live in poverty:


Let us offer praise and thanksgiving to the Most Holy


Trinity who has shown us the Virgin Mary,


Clothed with the sun, the moon beneath her feet, and on her head a mystic crown of 12 stars.


Let us praise and thank the divine Father who elected her for His daughters. Our Father.


Praised be the divine Father who predestined her to be the Mother of his divine Son. Hail Mary.


Praised be the divine Father who preserved her from all stain in her conception. Hail Mary.


Praised be the divine Father who adorned her at her birth with his most beautiful gifts. Hail Mary.


Praised be the divine Father who gave her St. Joseph to be her companion and chaste spouse. Hail Mary. Glory be..


Let us praise and thank the divine Son who chose her for his Mother.


Our Father.


Praised be the divine Son who became incarnate in her bosom and there abode for 9 months. Hail Mary.


Praised be the divine Son who was born of her and was nourished by her. Hail Mary..


Praised be the divine Son who in his childhood was taught by her.


Hail Mary.


Praised be the divine Son who revealed to her the mystery of the redemption of the world. Hail Mary. Glory be.


Let us praise and thank the Holy Spirit who took her for his spouse.


Our Father.


Praised to the Holy Spirit who took her for his spouse. Our Father.


Praised to the Holy Spirit who revealed first to her his name of Holy Spirit. Hail Mary.


Praised to the Holy Spirit by whose miracle she was at once Virgin and Mother. Hail Mary.


Praised to the Holy Spirit by whose power she was the living temple of the ever blessed Trinity. Hail Mary.


Praised to the Holy Spirit by whom she was exalted in heaven above every living creature. Hail Mary. Glory Be.

METAPHYSICAL PROPOSAL ON THE MODE OF USING HAWTHORN


FOR THE COMING PLAGUES…HAWTHORN


(QUESTION FOR DISCERNMENT- Is this swine flu h1n1 sars? Bird flu? You do the research!)


As given by our BLESSED MOTHER MARYAM, August 5, 1880: "There will be a grave illness which human science will not be able to alleviate. This illness will attack firstly the heart, then the spirit, and at the same time, the tongue. It will be horrible.


The heat accompanying it will be a devouring fire insupportable and so intense that the members of the body affected will be red -- an unendurable fiery red. At the end of seven days this disease, sown like a seed in the field (incubation period) will spread everywhere rapidly and make great progress."


"My children, here is the ONLY remedy which could save you. You are familiar with the Hawthorn which grows practically in all hedges.


The leaves of the Hawthorn, not the wood, can arrest the progress of this disease."


"You will gather the leaves, not the wood. Even dry, they will keep their efficacy.


You will put them into boiling water and leave them there for 14 minutes, covering the receptacle so that the steam remains therein.


At the onset of this disease, one must use this remedy three times a day."


"This disease will produce a continual vomiting and nausea. If the remedy is taken too late, the part of the body affected will become black and in the black there will be seen a sort of pale, yellow streak."


NO ONE HAS TO BELIEVE ANYTHING! TEST. DISCERN THE SPIRIT!


A SLIGHT CHANGE FOR CHILDREN- 8 MINUTES)


Note: It is a tradition that the Hawthorne was the plant from which Pilate’s Roman soldiers wove the CROWN OF THORNS.

Daily Consecration to the Eternal Father


For the greater glory of God and for the salvation of all, I consecrate myself to You, O' Eternal Father, as one of Your faithful remnant. Behold, I come to do Your Will. With the help of Your Grace, I will keep Your Commandments. I will love and reverence You with all my heart, soul, mind and strength. I will love my neighbor as You love me.


I make this Consecration through the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary and the Sacred Heart of Your beloved Son, Jesus.


O' Eternal Father, send forth Your Holy Spirit to restore my/our broken image and likeness of You. Send forth also Your entire Heavenly Court, all the celestial choirs of Your angels and all Your Saints, to aid me/us in my/our struggle against all the forces of evil in this present darkness. Amen. (Adapted from the Father of All Mankind Apostolate).


The Lord's Prayer


How many of us have said the “Our Father” with so little thought, so little reverence, and so little fruitfulness? However, when we are open to the Holy Spirit within us and pray from the heart, look at what can happen:"


Our Father, (“Our” Father—not “My” Father - all of God’s children of all races, all colors & all creeds)


Our Father, (Abba, “Daddy” God)


Who art in Heaven, (and Who art in me)


Hallowed be Thy Name. (Holy be Thy Name, praised be Thy Name, thanks be to Thy Most Holy Name)


Thy Kingdom come. (now - on earth and in me)


Thy Will be done, (now - on earth and in me)


on earth as it is in Heaven. (at the Throne of God, with the Trinity, Our Lady and all the Angels and Saints)


Give us this day our daily bread. (the Bread of your Divine Will, the Bread of Life in the Eucharist, and the bread we need to eat to sustain our bodies)


And forgive us our trespasses(forgive us our sins, our imperfections and our hesitancies in the face of temptation)


As we forgive those (or as we choose not to forgive those) who trespass against us.


And lead us not into temptation,(for we are weak, we are worthless, we are wretched & we are nothing)


But deliver us from evil.(for it is only through your grace, not by our works alonenor our merit that we can escape eternal damnation)


Amen. (So I hope. So be it).

 

 


Prayer to the Blessed Virgin Mary Protectress of Africa


Holy Mary, Mother of God, Protectress of Africa, you have given to the world the true Light, Jesus Christ. Through your obedience to the Father and the grace of the Holy Spirit, you have given us the source of our reconciliation and our justice, Jesus Christ, our peace and our joy.


Mother of Tenderness and Wisdom, show us Jesus, your Son and the Son of God. Guide our path of conversion, so that Jesus might shine his glory on us in every aspect of our personal, familial and social lives.


Mother, full of Mercy and Justice, through your docility to the Spirit, the Counselor, obtain for us the grace to be witnesses of the Risen Lord, so that we will increasingly become the salt of the earth and the light of the world.


Mother of Perpetual Help, we entrust to your maternal intercession the preparation and fruits of the Second Special Assembly for Africa. Queen of Peace, pray for us! Our Lady of Africa, pray for us!

"Work at it every day"


Dear Friends,


The Way of Love


If I speak in human and angelic tongues but do not have love, I am a resounding gong or a clashing cymbal. And if I have the gift of prophecy and comprehend all mysteries and all knowledge; if I have all faith so as to move mountains but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give away everything I own, and if I hand my body over so that I may boast but do not have love, I gain nothing.


Love is patient, love is kind. It is not jealous, love is not pompous, it is not inflated, it is not rude, it does not seek its own interests, it is not quick-tempered, it does not brood over injury, it does not rejoice over wrongdoing but rejoices with the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.


Love never fails. If there are prophecies, they will be brought to nothing; if tongues, they will cease; if knowledge, it will be brought to nothing. For we know partially and we prophesy partially, but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away. When I was a child, I used to talk as a child, think as a child, reason as a child; when I became a man, I put aside childish things. At present we see indistinctly, as in a mirror, but then face to face. At present I know partially; then I shall know fully, as I am fully known. So faith, hope, love remain, these three; but the greatest of these is love. 1 Cor 13:1-13

 


Here is a message from Our Lord and Savior given to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him these words,


My dear friends, you know the commandment that I gave you: Love one another as I have loved you. All your obligations towards God and your neighbour are fulfilled if you love them with all your heart. You are not to be jealous of your neighbour. You will forget about yourself and love the other, as there is no self-love in true love. You will be ready to help all those who are suffering or in need of food or clothes.


You will also pray for the sick, the handicapped and all those in need. You will be ready to forgive all those who hurt you in any way. You will study My life as it is given in the Gospels and work with My grace to follow Me. Remember, love is the perfection of all law but it takes a lifetime of work with My help to achieve this. Work at it every day. I love you.

"I am praying for you"


Dear Friends,


Unity and Variety


There are different kinds of spiritual gifts but the same Spirit; there are different forms of service but the same Lord; there are different workings but the same God who produces all of them in everyone. To each individual the manifestation of the Spirit is given for some benefit.


To one is given through the Spirit the expression of wisdom; to another the expression of knowledge according to the same Spirit; to another faith by the same Spirit; to another gifts of healing by the one Spirit; to another mighty deeds; to another prophecy; to another discernment of spirits; to another varieties of tongues; to another interpretation of tongues. But one and the same Spirit produces all of these, distributing them individually to each person as he wishes. 1 Cor 12:4-11

 

 


Here is the message of Our Blessed Mother addressed to Joseph Melvin. She spoke to him in these words,


I bless you, My son, on this Feast of Mine. Today you celebrate the Queenship of your Blessed Mother. After My Assumption into heaven, the Father crowned me as Queen of heaven and earth. My Son Jesus is the King and I am the Queen. I am working together with Him to help you all to reach heaven one day.


The Holy Spirit has been poured upon all those who believe in My Son Jesus. All who receive the Spirit receive different spiritual gifts and different services. Some are given the gift of wisdom, others knowledge according to the same Spirit.


Others receive faith, or the gift of healing or others prophecy, the discernment of spirits, others the gift of tongues or the interpretation of tongues. Open your heart to the Spirit and receive these wonderful gifts that come from Him. Use the gifts the Holy Spirit gives you for the glory of God and for the growth of the Church of My Son.


I am praying for you that you will be full of the Holy Spirit and be completely renewed by the same Spirit. Be humble and ask for His help every day. Be an example of a person completely united with the Father and Jesus, My Son, through the power of the Holy Spirit. I call you all to pray your rosary every day.


Father Melvin


[Fr. Doucette: 305] Thu, Aug 20, 2009: "This is My Body"

"This is My Body"


Dear Friends,


Tradition of the Institution


For I received from the Lord what I also handed on to you, that the Lord Jesus, on the night he was handed over, took bread, and, after he had given thanks, broke it and said, This is my body that is for you. Do this in remembrance of me. In the same way also the cup, after supper, saying, This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me. For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the death of the Lord until he comes.


Therefore whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord unworthily will have to answer for the body and blood of the Lord. A person should examine himself, and so eat the bread and drink the cup. For anyone who eats and drinks without discerning the body, eats and drinks judgment on himself.


That is why many among you are ill and infirm, and a considerable number are dying. If we discern ourselves, we would not be under judgment; but since we are judged by the Lord, we are being disciplined so that we may not be condemned along with the world. Therefore, my brothers, when you come together to eat, wait for one another.


If anyone is hungry, he should eat at home, so that your meetings may not result in judgment. The other matters I shall set in order when I come. 1 Cor 11:23-34

 


Below you will find the message of Our Lord and Savior given to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words,


St. Paul along with the three Evangelists spoke of the Last Supper with the Apostles. As it is known to you, I took bread and gave thanks and praise to God. I broke the bread, gave it to the Apostles and said, Take this, all of you and eat it: This is My Body which will be given up for you.


When supper was ended, I took the cup. Again I gave thanks and praise to the Father, gave the cup to My disciples and said, Take this, all of you, and drink from it: This is the cup of My blood, the blood of the new and everlasting covenant. It will be shed for you and for all so that sins may be forgiven. Do this in memory of Me.


What I give you to eat and drink is My very self. I am present in the host with My Body and My Blood, soul and divinity. I am present there alive as I live now in heaven on the right of My Father. You are to receive the Eucharist with a repented heart free of any grave sins otherwise you are bringing judgment upon yourself. I bless you all.


Father Melvin


[Fr. Doucette: 304] Wed, Aug 19, 2009: "Live for the glory of God"


Wednesday, August 19, 2009


"Live for the glory of God" Dear Friends,


Seek the Good of Others


Everything is lawful, but not everything is beneficial. Everything is lawful,but not everything builds up. No one should seek his own advantage, but that of his neighbor. Eat anything sold in the market, without raising questions on grounds of conscience, for the earth and it fullness are the Lord’s.If an unbeliever invites you and you want to go, eat whatever is placed before you, without raising questions on grounds of conscience. But if somebody says to you,


This was offered in sacrifice,do not eat it on account of the one who called attention to it and on account of conscience, not your own conscience but the other’s. For why should my freedom be determined by somebody else ‘s conscience? If I partake thankfully, why am I reviled for that over which I give thanks?


So whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do everything for the glory of God. Avoid giving offense, whether to Jews or Greeks or the church of God, just as I try to please everyone in every way, not seeking my own benefit but that of the many, that they may be saved. 1Cor 10:23-33


We had a warm and sunny day yesterday and it was humid. We had some rain during the night and now it is cloudy. I celebrated Holy Mass last evening and I will have Holy Mass this morning at 9:30 a.m. in the little shrine of Our Lady of Prince Edward Island. I hope to go to the prayer meeting this evening at our Church at 8:00 p.m.


Below you will find the message of Our Lord and Savior given to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words,


Is it lawful to accept an invitation to dinner from a non-Catholic or from a non-believer? What if in the room there is a statue of Buddha or something of the occult, would you feel at peace? If this would affect your conscience in any way, then do not go. However, these things will not offend you or cause you any harm.


What you are to do is to do everything for the glory of God. Do not give offense to others even though what you are doing does not offend your conscience.


What you should want above everything else is the salvation of every person. Show them that you love Me and that you love all those you meet. Food and drink have no significance in themselves to help you spiritually but they are needed to nourish our bodies. One can buy food in any market and eat it without any qualms of conscience. You are asked to eat and drink moderately as gluttony is a sin. Many today eat too much and this is not good. Food and drink should be taken in moderation and it will please God. It is good too at times to fast for the remission of sins and to have control of your appetites. Do not let your bodily desires rule you but you should rule them. Alcohol drinks also should be drunk in moderation for abuse of it is very sinful. Live for the glory of God.


Father Melvin

Thursday Adoration, August 20, 2009


Jesus Desires Our Company


Today I spent time alone in adoration with Jesus and prayed for all with special needs and intentions. After making small offerings to Jesus and saying a few decades of the rosary, I prayed saying: speak Lord, Your servant listens.


Jesus responded to my heart saying: My child Eileen, In the beginning I was lonely and desired company. God made man to His own image and likeness. Yet I AM still lonely because man detaches from Me. My people can feel pain when their children detach from them, yet cannot understand how their indifference hurts Me!


I love you because you do not detach from Me! I want all My children to come and spend time with Me in prayer and meditation. Go in peace to love and serve the Lord. Continue to pray for your brothers and sisters. Amen. Message to Sharon Fitzpatrick August 19,2009

Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 24 - THAT THE SPIRIT MAY DESCEND ON YOU


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 24 - THAT THE SPIRIT MAY DESCEND ON YOU


ITS TIME for a Faith Lift


Mother Teresa - Today let us recall the love of God for you and for me. His love is so tender. His love is so great, so real, so living that Jesus came just to teach us that-- how to love.


Padre Pio - God can reject everything in a creature conceived in sin and which bears the indelible impression inherited from Adam. But He absolutely cannot reject the sincere desire to love Him.


Archbishop Fulton Sheen -


In your face often belies honesty!


"Psychologically, those who manifestly are shams are generally known through three techniques: first they shake hands with you up to the elbow, and they thrust their face against your nose with a smile which seems to say, `See how nice I am,' or they shout out their greetings in tones calculated to make volume substitute for honesty."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -


Then I heard the following words spoken thus: I want you to be My spouse. Fear pierced my soul, but I calmly continued to reflect on what sort of an espousal this could be. However, each time fear would invade my soul, a power from on high would give it peace.


After all, I have taken perpetual vows, and I have taken them of my own completely free will. And so I continued to reflect on what this could mean. I sensed, and came to realize, that this was some special kind of grace. Whenever I think about it, I feel faint for God, but in this swooning, my mind is clear and penetrated with light. When I am united to Him, I faint from an abundance of happiness, but my mind is bright and clear and free from all shadows.


You abase Your majesty to dwell with a poor creature. Thank you, O Lord, for this great grace that makes it possible for me to commune with You. Jesus, Your Name is my delight, I have a presentiment of my Beloved from afar, and my languishing soul rests in His embrace; I don't know how to live without Him. I would rather be with Him in afflictions and suffering than without Him in the greatest heavenly delights. (912)


February 19, 1937. Contact with the dying. They ask me for prayer, and I can pray, as the Lord grants me an extraordinary spirit of prayer. I am constantly united with Him, and I am fully aware that I live for souls in order to bring them to Your mercy, O Lord. In this matter, no sacrifice is too insignificant. (971)


http://www.catholic-forum.com/e-pistle.html


Today's Tidbit - Prayer is the raising of the mind and heart in adoration, thanksgiving, reparation and petition. Prayer, which is always mental because it involves thought and love of God, may be vocal, meditative, private, and personal, social and official. The official prayer of the Church as a worshiping community is called the liturgy.


MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY

 

 


AUGUST 24 - THAT THE SPIRIT MAY DESCEND ON YOU


Our Lady addresses Jelena's prayer group:


Why have you stopped saying the prayer to the Holy Spirit? Remember that I have asked you to pray always and at all times that the Holy Spirit may descend upon you. Begin again to pray for this (Locution Jelena & Mirijana Jan 2, 1984).


And in John `s gospel, Christ asks us to drink of the Spirit:


On the last day of the festival, the great day, while Jesus was standing there, he cried out, "Let anyone who is thirsty come to me, and let the one who believes in me drink. As the scripture has said, `Out of the believer's heart shall flow rivers of living water. "Now he said this about the Spirit, which believers in him were to receive; for as yet there was no Spirit, because Jesus was not yet glorified (Jn 7:37-39).


Reflection:


Today the Blessed Mother calls us to "pray always and at all times so that the Holy Spirit may descend upon you. "Yesterday we began a special prayer to the Spirit. Today, taking Our Lady's advice, let us conclude the Prayer of Invocation to the Holy Spirit:


Eternal Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, and through the intercession of the Immaculate Virgin Mary, send to me your Holy Spirit.


Come, Holy Spirit, and grant me the gift of wisdom.


Come, Holy Spirit, and grant me the gift of understanding.


Come, Holy Spirit, and grant me the gift of counsel.


Come, Holy Spirit, and grant me the gift fortitude.


Come, Holy Spirit, and grant me the gift knowledge.


Come, Holy Spirit, and grant me the gift of piety.


Come, Holy Spirit, and grant me the gift of fear of the Lord.


Pause. Then three Glory Bes.


Holy Spirit, Eternal Love,


Fountain of heavenly light,


Come, inflame our hearts.


Application:


Thank God for the gifts of the Spirit which you have received. Reflect on how you are using these gifts for the sake of others


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 21 - IT IS INDISPENSABLE


Honor in Mary, at the foot of the Tabernacle, all the mysteries of her life, for all these were stations, as it were, leading to the Cenacle. In Mary's life there you will find the model and the consolation of your own life. In the Cenacle, this august Queen kneels as adoratrix and servant of the Most Blessed Sacrament: kneel at your Mother's side and pray with her, and in so doing, you will continue her Eucharistic Life on earth." (St. Peter Julian Eymard)


Mary, Queen of Priests, pray for them. Help them to faithfully love and serve Jesus. Help them lead many souls to Jesus in the Eucharist!


Mother Teresa -


" Unless you become like a little child, you cannot enter into heaven. " And what is being a little child?


It is having a clean heart, a pure heart, a heart that holds Jesus, a heart that can say again and again, " Jesus in my heart, I believe in your tender love for me. I love you. "


Meditations by Padre Pio - God can reject everything in a creature conceived in sin and which bears the indelible impression inherited from Adam. But He absolutely cannot reject the sincere desire to love Him. -


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Neurotics are ideal targets for satan's lure!


"Every neurotic is anti-social. Normal persons are liked to society; the abnormal, uprooted through their delusions, are daily confronted with the absurd. They are `naturals' for any anti-social movement opposed to culture, morality and peace. In fact the more absurd a system is, the more it appeals to them.


The connection between the neurotic anti-social traits of a person and the neurotic anti-social wars and revolutions which we see around us in the world today is extremely close. As flies go to honey, so neurotics gravitate to anti-social behavior. They are easy targets for the devil's bait."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -


January 8. On Friday morning, as I was going to the chapel to attend Holy Mass, I suddenly saw a huge juniper tree on the pavement and in it a horrible cat who, looking angrily at me, blocked my way to the chapel. One whisper of the name of Jesus dissipated all that. I offered the whole day for dying sinners.


During Holy Mass, I felt the closeness of the Lord in a special way. After Holy Communion, I turned my gaze with trust toward the Lord and told him, "Jesus, I so much desire to tell You something." And the Lord looked at me with love and said, And what is it that you desire to tell Me?


"Jesus, I beg You, by the inconceivable power of Your mercy, that all the souls who will die today escape the fire of hell, even if they have been the greatest sinners. Today is Friday, the memorial of Your bitter agony on the Cross; because Your mercy is inconceivable, the Angels will not be surprised at this."


Jesus pressed me to His Heart and said, My beloved daughter, you have come to know well the depths of My mercy. I will do what you ask, but unite yourself continually with My agonizing Heart and make reparation to My justice. Know that you have asked Me for a great thing, but I see that this was dictated by your pure love for Me; that is why I am complying with your requests. (873)

MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY


These thoughts for a day are taken from a daily meditation book based on the Messages of Our Lady of Medjugorje by Father Richard J. Beyer, Ave Maria Press.


AUGUST 21 - IT IS INDISPENSABLE


Today the Madonna makes her most frequent request:


Pray! I wish to purify your hearts. Pray. It is indispensable, for God gives the greatest graces when you pray (Locution Jelena & Mirijana January 30, 1984).


In the Book of Daniel, we see a man devoted to prayer:


Daniel continued to go to his house. and to get down on his knees three times a day to pray to his God and praise him, just as he had done previously (Dn 6:10).


Reflection:


Our Lady gave one of her most beautiful messages on prayer to Jelena's prayer group in January of 1986.


It is quoted here in its entirety:


Each moment of prayer is like a drop of dew in the morning which refreshes each flower, each blade of grass, the whole earth.


In the same way, prayer refreshes man. Just as he must rest when tired, seek peace when troubled, so he must pray and listen to the Spirit of God to renew himself.


How beautiful the scenery is when we look at nature in the morning, in all its freshness ! But how much more beautiful is someone who conveys peace, love, and happiness to others. Children, if only you knew what prayer does to human beings, especially prayer form the heart ! In this way, you can become a beautiful, fresh flower for God. See how long the drops of dew linger on the flowers before the first rays of sunlight.


In this way, nature is refreshed and renewed. For nature to remain beautiful, it requires a daily renewal and refreshment. In the same way, prayer refreshes man, renewing and strengthening him. Because temptations afflict him again and again, weakening him, he must pray so as to be renewed and empowered to love. Therefore, pray and rejoice in the refreshment God gives you !


Application:


Today, enter into prayer deeply and calmly, asking especially for the grace of renewal and peace


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 22 - THE QUEENSHIP OF MARY

 


St. Rose of Lima: We can go to Jesus in the Most Blessed Sacrament and know that He is our best friend! One day a band of pirates went to attack the village of St. Rose of Lima, in Peru, South America.


They were going to destroy the Church where Jesus was present in the Holy Eucharist. St. Rose loved her friend Jesus in the Sacred Host and did not want these mean men to hurt Him. Often she visited Jesus, in the church, and talked to Him. Little Rose ran to the church and stood before the tabernacle (the little gold house, behind the altar, where Jesus in the Eucharist is reserved).


She would not let the pirates get to Jesus, she was ready to die before letting them hurt Him! When the village people saw how brave she was they stood with her and prevented the pirates from attacking Jesus! In addition to this act of heroic bravery, she started Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration at the Churches throughout her village.


(From the book Adoration for Children, available through us)


Quote of the Day - Having confidence in you, O Mother of God, I shall be saved. Being under your protection, I shall fear nothing. With you help I shall give battle to my enemies and put them to flight; for devotion to you is an arm of salvation. -St. John Damascene

 


Ave, Regina caelorum,
ave Domina angelorum
salve, radix, salve, porta,
ex qua mundo lux est orta.
Gaude, Virgo gloriosa,
super omnes speciosa;
vale, o valde decora,
et pro nobis Christum exora.
Hail O queen of heaven enthroned!
Hail, by angels mistress owned!
Root of Jesse! Gate of morn,
Whence the world's true Light was born:
Glorious Virgin, joy to thee,
Beautiful surpassingly!
Fairest thou where all are fair!
-Translation from "Blessed Sacrament Book" copyright 1913


Mother Teresa -


We must know that we have been created for greater things, not just to be a number in the world, not just to go for diplomas and degrees, this work and that work. We have been created in order to love and to be loved.


Meditations by Padre Pio - May the Mother of Jesus, and your Mother, always smile on your spirit, obtaining for it, from her Most Holy Son, every heavenly blessing (Epist, IV. p. 142).


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Do `Dopes' and Democrats have any semblance here? "Satellites are just plain dupes or `dopes.' They may not be obedient in action, but they are obedient in thought. They see only what they want to see; they love the limelight which certain causes give them, but are incapable of analyzing an historical situation. They are professional signers; they will put their name to anything that identifies liberty with license.


The devil uses them because they are naive and credulous. They belong to every `politically correct' organization, but like the false fronts waiters wear, they are nothing but stuffed shirts - with a tail which the devil twists to his own good pleasure."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -


Nothing disturbs my union with the Lord, neither conversation with others nor any duties; even if I am to go about settling very important matters, this does not disturb me. My spirit is with God, and my interior being is filled with God, so I do not look for Him outside myself. He, the Lord, penetrates my soul just as a ray from the sun penetrates clear glass.


When I was enclosed in my mother's womb, I was not so closely united with her as I am with my God. There, it was an unawareness; but here, it is the fullness of reality and the consciousness of union. My visions are purely interior, but the more I understand them, the less I am able to express them in words. (883)


Jesus, give me the strength and wisdom to get through this terrible wilderness, that my heart may bear patiently this longing for You, O my Lord! I always remain in holy amazement when I sense that You are approaching me, You, the Lord of the awesome throne; that You descend to this miserable exile and visit this poor beggar who has nothing but misery! I do not know how to entertain You, my Royal Prince, but You know that I love You with every beat of my heart.


I see how You lower yourself, but nevertheless Your majesty does not diminish in my eyes. I know that You love me with the love of a bridegroom, and that is enough for me. Although we are separated by a great chasm, for You are the Creator and I am Your creature, nevertheless, love alone explains our union.


Without it, all is incomprehensible. Only love makes it possible to understand these incomprehensible intimacies with which You visit me. O Jesus, Your greatness terrifies me, and I would be in constant astonishment and fear, if You yourself did not set me at peace. You make me capable of communing with You before each approach. (885)


MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY

 

 


AUGUST 22 - THE QUEENSHIP OF MARY


Our Lady speaks of her queenship to Jelena:


I have come to tell the world that God is truth; he exists. True happiness and the fullness of life are in him. I have come here as Queen of Peace to tell the world that peace is necessary for the salvation of the world. In God, one finds true joy form which true peace is derived (Locution Jelena & Mirijana June 16, 1983).


And from a monthly message in 1988:


I am your mother and the Queen of Peace. I give you blessings of joy that God may be everything in your life. (Monthly Message July 25, 1988).


From Revelation:


A great portent appeared in heaven: A woman clothed with the sun, with the moon under her feet and on her head a crown of twelve stars (Rv 12:1).


Reflection:


The crowning glory of Mary's life was her coronation as Queen of Heaven and Earth. The description of her above from the Book of Revelation has inspired artists and poets for centuries.


As Queen of Heaven, Our Lady continues to direct us to the King. In her message of July 25, 1988, she calls us "to a complete surrender to God." "Everything you do," she says, "and everything you possess, give over to God so that he can take control in your life, as King of all that you possess. "In this way, God can then lead us into the depths of the spiritual life.


Our Lady's own surrender to God, as exemplified by the Annunciation and her presence at the cross, inspires us to imitate her dependence on the Father. This trusting dependence harbors a strength, a courage, and peace that belies any power the world can give. As St. Paul says, it is through our "weakness" that the power of God himself bursts forth. And so it is that what the world saw as a lowly maiden was, in the reality of God's power, the Queen of Heaven and Earth.


Application:


Today, pray that you may not rely on your own strength and wisdom, but on the Lord's.


Message to littlest of servants August 20, 2009


I received a message this morning at Mass and JESUS gave me permission to reveal it. JESUS told me that as the world experienced a GREAT FLOOD thousands of years ago the world would again soon experience a GREAT FLOOD, however this flood would be completely different as it would be a GREAT FLOOD OF GRACES.


That the first FLOOD purified the earth and that this FLOOD would also purify but would be different in that it would be a signal that would start the purification of the earth.


That the first flood was of water that covered the earth hundreds of feet deep and that this coming FLOOD OF GRACES would cover the earth thousands of feet deep.


That the world had not experienced the FLOOD OF GRACES THAT IS SOON TO COVER THE EARTH.


That this event was very, very close and that HIS HEAVENLY FATHER WOULD SOON RELEASE THESE GRACES. THE ETERNAL FATHER WHO LOVES HUMANITY SO MUCH THAT HE IS GOING TO OPEN HEAVEN AND POUR OUT UPON A SUFFERING HUMANITY GREAT GRACES OF MERCY AND LOVE. Let us continue to pray, pray, pray, and especially the ROSARY and the DIVINE MERCY CHAPLET giving thanks to the HEAVENLY FATHER, our DAD, for HIS GREAT LOVE FOR US HIS CHILDREN.


Later JESUS said to me continue to pray and work for HIS KINGDOM and leave the results to HIM.

Jesus Tells Us How To Make The Transition From This World


Today we attended our usual 8:00 AM Mass at our parish, Our Lady Of Sorrows where I made small offerings to Jesus and Mary and prayed for all with special needs and intentions, including my own.


Before receiving the most precious Body and Blood of Christ in the Sacrament of Holy Communion, I made an Act Of Contrition. On my knees with the Sacred Host on my tongue, I gave thanks and my heartfelt love to Jesus. I asked Jesus to clear my mind of all noise and sight, except that which comes directly from His heart to mine. Then I prayed, Speak Lord (if it be Your will), Your servant listens.


I began to see the most beautiful shades of blue and felt a strong sense of serenity. Then Jesus spoke to my heart saying: My child Eileen, this life on earth is meant to be used for making the transition into the next life! Those who follow My will are those who will spend eternity with Me and baste in the tranquil senses of peace and tranquility! Go in peace to love and serve the Lord. Continue to pray for your brothers and sisters. Amen.


Sharing by Dory Tan on August 1st 2009 in Marmora


On this First Saturday at the Tenth Station Dory shared this with us:


Dory began by thanking Jesus and Our Blessed Mother because it has been seventeen years since Dory has been coming here to this Holy Place.


Dory shared with us that when Our Blessed Mother appeared to her today it was the first time in seventeen years that She had Her hands folded together. Dory asked Our Blessed Mother if She was closing Her hands on the world. Our Blessed Mother smiled and answered her by saying: " Not yet my child." Dory explained that when Our Blessed Mother said: "Not yet my child", She is telling us that it is coming and because Jesus and Our Blessed Mother love us so much, They are giving us this time to come to Them.


Our Blessed Mother then explained to Dory the meaning of Her folded hands. She said She wants all Her children to be one and to come to Her and Her Son Jesus. She wants every one of us to love one another, families, husbands, wives, children and parents, to all be one and to love our friends and neighbour's all over the world. She said it is time now to save our souls and to come to Her so that we may all be one in Her Crown so She can take us to Heaven to be with Her Son Jesus.


Our Blessed Mother asked Dory to share with us the message She gave to Dory after last First Saturday when Dory revealed the new crown for the statue of Our Blessed Mother. On Sunday July 5th after Dory finished her morning prayers in her home Our Blessed Mother appeared to her and said; " You have changed the way I look but you cannot change My heart. It is a good heart, clean heart, loving heart and a forgiving and simple heart. You My children cannot change the way you look, but you can change your heart to be a good, clean, loving, forgiving and simple heart." This is the way Our Blessed Mother wants us to be to save our souls so She can bring us in Her Hands and Crown to be with Jesus in Heaven.


Dory said that again Our Blessed Mother emphasized that material things are nothing. Even if you have lots of money today, tomorrow it can all be gone. She is asking us to continue with what we are doing and to not get tired. Even though we do not see Her, through our faith we will see Her and She is blessing us in this Holy Place.


Our Blessed Mother will again be giving the Light that is Her Son Jesus through Dory here in Marmora on Our Blessed Mother's Birthday September 8th. Please bring one candle to be lit. The large pillar candles that are not in glass are best.


Dory ends by saying: God Bless us all.

SHORT POWERFUL PRAYER THROUGH ST. JOSEPH


"Glorious St. Joseph, tenderhearted father, faithful guardian of Jesus, chaste spouse of the Mother of God, I ask you to join me in praising God the Father through His Divine Son who died on the cross and rose again to give us sinners new life. Through the Holy Name of Jesus, pray with me that we may obtain from the eternal Father the favor we ask. (here state your intention)."


Say this prayer for nine consecutive days.


Fear not! God is your shelter (the 23rd Psalm and the Lord’s Prayer. God never fails). Don’t fail him. Call on Jesus. Jesus on the mainline, tell him what you want!

METAPHYSICAL PROPOSAL ON THE MODE OF USING HAWTHORN


FOR THE COMING PLAGUES…HAWTHORN


(QUESTION FOR DISCERNMENT- Is this swine flu h1n1 sars? Bird flu? You do the research!)


As given by our BLESSED MOTHER MARYAM, August 5, 1880: "There will be a grave illness which human science will not be able to alleviate. This illness will attack firstly the heart, then the spirit, and at the same time, the tongue. It will be horrible.


The heat accompanying it will be a devouring fire insupportable and so intense that the members of the body affected will be red -- an unendurable fiery red. At the end of seven days this disease, sown like a seed in the field (incubation period) will spread everywhere rapidly and make great progress."


"My children, here is the ONLY remedy which could save you. You are familiar with the Hawthorn which grows practically in all hedges.


The leaves of the Hawthorn, not the wood, can arrest the progress of this disease."


"You will gather the leaves, not the wood. Even dry, they will keep their efficacy.


You will put them into boiling water and leave them there for 14 minutes, covering the receptacle so that the steam remains therein.


At the onset of this disease, one must use this remedy three times a day."


"This disease will produce a continual vomiting and nausea. If the remedy is taken too late, the part of the body affected will become black and in the black there will be seen a sort of pale, yellow streak."


NO ONE HAS TO BELIEVE ANYTHING! TEST. DISCERN THE SPIRIT!


A SLIGHT CHANGE FOR CHILDREN- 8 MINUTES)


Note: It is a tradition that the Hawthorne was the plant from which Pilate’s Roman soldiers wove the CROWN OF THORNS.

Daily Consecration to the Eternal Father


For the greater glory of God and for the salvation of all, I consecrate myself to You, O' Eternal Father, as one of Your faithful remnant. Behold, I come to do Your Will. With the help of Your Grace, I will keep Your Commandments. I will love and reverence You with all my heart, soul, mind and strength. I will love my neighbor as You love me.


I make this Consecration through the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary and the Sacred Heart of Your beloved Son, Jesus.


O' Eternal Father, send forth Your Holy Spirit to restore my/our broken image and likeness of You. Send forth also Your entire Heavenly Court, all the celestial choirs of Your angels and all Your Saints, to aid me/us in my/our struggle against all the forces of evil in this present darkness. Amen. (Adapted from the Father of All Mankind Apostolate).


The Lord's Prayer


How many of us have said the “Our Father” with so little thought, so little reverence, and so little fruitfulness? However, when we are open to the Holy Spirit within us and pray from the heart, look at what can happen:"


Our Father, (“Our” Father—not “My” Father - all of God’s children of all races, all colors & all creeds)


Our Father, (Abba, “Daddy” God)


Who art in Heaven, (and Who art in me)


Hallowed be Thy Name. (Holy be Thy Name, praised be Thy Name, thanks be to Thy Most Holy Name)


Thy Kingdom come. (now - on earth and in me)


Thy Will be done, (now - on earth and in me)


on earth as it is in Heaven. (at the Throne of God, with the Trinity, Our Lady and all the Angels and Saints)


Give us this day our daily bread. (the Bread of your Divine Will, the Bread of Life in the Eucharist, and the bread we need to eat to sustain our bodies)


And forgive us our trespasses(forgive us our sins, our imperfections and our hesitancies in the face of temptation)


As we forgive those (or as we choose not to forgive those) who trespass against us.


And lead us not into temptation,(for we are weak, we are worthless, we are wretched & we are nothing)


But deliver us from evil.(for it is only through your grace, not by our works alonenor our merit that we can escape eternal damnation)


Amen. (So I hope. So be it).

 

 


Prayer to the Blessed Virgin Mary Protectress of Africa


Holy Mary, Mother of God, Protectress of Africa, you have given to the world the true Light, Jesus Christ. Through your obedience to the Father and the grace of the Holy Spirit, you have given us the source of our reconciliation and our justice, Jesus Christ, our peace and our joy.


Mother of Tenderness and Wisdom, show us Jesus, your Son and the Son of God. Guide our path of conversion, so that Jesus might shine his glory on us in every aspect of our personal, familial and social lives.


Mother, full of Mercy and Justice, through your docility to the Spirit, the Counselor, obtain for us the grace to be witnesses of the Risen Lord, so that we will increasingly become the salt of the earth and the light of the world.


Mother of Perpetual Help, we entrust to your maternal intercession the preparation and fruits of the Second Special Assembly for Africa. Queen of Peace, pray for us! Our Lady of Africa, pray for us!

"This is My Body"


Dear Friends,


Tradition of the Institution


For I received from the Lord what I also handed on to you, that the Lord Jesus, on the night he was handed over, took bread, and, after he had given thanks, broke it and said, This is my body that is for you. Do this in remembrance of me. In the same way also the cup, after supper, saying, This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the death of the Lord until he comes.


Therefore whoever eats the bread or drinks the cup of the Lord unworthily will have to answer for the body and blood of the Lord. A person should examine himself, and so eat the bread and drink the cup. For anyone who eats and drinks without discerning the body, eats and drinks judgment on himself.


That is why many among you are ill and infirm, and a considerable number are dying. If we discern ourselves, we would not be under judgment; but since we are judged by the Lord, we are being disciplined so that we may not be condemned along with the world. Therefore, my brothers, when you come together to eat, wait for one another. If anyone is hungry, he should eat at home, so that your meetings may not result in judgment. The other matters I shall set in order when I come. 1 Cor 11:23-34


Below you will find the message of Our Lord and Savior given to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words,


St. Paul along with the three Evangelists spoke of the Last Supper with the Apostles. As it is known to you, I took bread and gave thanks and praise to God. I broke the bread, gave it to the Apostles and said, ˜ Take this, all of you and eat it: This is My Body which will be given up for you. When supper was ended, I took the cup.


Again I gave thanks and praise to the Father, gave the cup to My disciples and said, ˜Take this, all of you, and drink from it: This is the cup of My blood, the blood of the new and everlasting covenant. It will be shed for you and for all so that sins may be forgiven. Do this in memory of Me.


What I give you to eat and drink is My very self. I am present in the host with My Body and My Blood, soul and divinity. I am present there alive as I live now in heaven on the right of My Father. You are to receive the Eucharist with a repented heart free of any grave sins otherwise you are bringing judgment upon yourself. I bless you all.


Father Melvin


[Fr. Doucette: 304] Wed, Aug 19, 2009: "Live for the glory of God"

"Live for the glory of God" Dear Friends,


Seek the Good of Others


Everything is lawful,but not everything is beneficial. Everything is lawful,but not everything builds up. No one should seek his own advantage, but that of his neighbor. Eat anything sold in the market, without raising questions on grounds of conscience, for the earth and it fullness are the Lord’s.If an unbeliever invites you and you want to go, eat whatever is placed before you, without raising questions on grounds of conscience.


But if somebody says to you, This was offered in sacrifice,do not eat it on account of the one who called attention to it and on account of conscience, not your own conscience but the other’s. For why should my freedom be determined by somebody else’s conscience? If I partake thankfully, why am I reviled for that over which I give thanks? So whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do everything for the glory of God. Avoid giving offense, whether to Jews or Greeks or the church of God, just as I try to please everyone in every way, not seeking my own benefit but that of the many, that they may be saved. 1Cor 10:23-33

 


Is it lawful to accept an invitation to dinner from a non-Catholic or from a non-believer? What if in the room there is a statue of Buddha or something of the occult, would you feel at peace? If this would affect your conscience in any way, then do not go. However, these things will not offend you or cause you any harm. What you are to do is to do everything for the glory of God. Do not give offense to others even though what you are doing does not offend your conscience.


What you should want above everything else is the salvation of every person. Show them that you love Me and that you love all those you meet. Food and drink have no significance in themselves to help you spiritually but they are needed to nourish our bodies. One can buy food in any market and eat it without any qualms of conscience.


You are asked to eat and drink moderately as gluttony is a sin. Many today eat too much and this is not good. Food and drink should be taken in moderation and it will please God. It is good too at times to fast for the remission of sins and to have control of your appetites. Do not let your bodily desires rule you but you should rule them. Alcohol drinks also should be drunk in moderation for abuse of it is very sinful. Live for the glory of God.

Medjugorje Day BY Day Aug 20 - ST. BERNARD


Mother Teresa - Our holy faith is nothing but a gospel of love, revealing to us God's love for men and claiming in return man's love for God. We must spread God's love on earth if we want to make souls repent wholeheartedly for sin, to strengthen them in temptation, and to increase their generosity and their desire to suffer for Christ.

 


Meditations by Padre Pio - May the Child Jesus be your guiding star in the desert of this present life (AP).


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - A compassionate man always has time! "The truly compassionate and kind man who gives up his time for others manages to find time. Like the bread, miraculously multiplied, he gives, and yet he gathers up for himself more than he gave."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - The sight of this great majesty of God, which I came to understand more profoundly and which is worshiped by the heavenly spirits according to their degree of grace and the hierarchies into which they are divided, did not cause my soul to be stricken with terror or fear; no, no, not at all! My soul was filled with peace and love, and the more I come to know the greatness of God, the more joyful I become that He is as He is. And I rejoice immensely in His greatness and am delighted that I am so little because, since I am little, He carries me in His arms and holds me close to His Heart. (779)


O my God, how I pity those people who do not believe in eternal life; how I pray for them that a ray of mercy would envelop them too, and that God would clasp them to His fatherly bosom. (780)


In this seclusion, Jesus himself is my Master. He himself educates and instructs me. I feel that I am the object of His special action. For His inscrutable purposes and unfathomable decrees, He unites me to Himself in a special way and allows me to penetrate His incomprehensible mysteries. There is one mystery which unites me with the Lord, of which no one-not even Angels-may know. And even if I wanted to tell of it, I would not know how to express it. And yet, I live by it and will live by it forever. This mystery distinguishes me from every other soul here on earth or in eternity. (824)


MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY


These thoughts for a day are taken from a daily meditation book based on the Messages of Our Lady of Medjugorje by Father Richard J. Beyer, Ave Maria Press.


AUGUST 20 - ST. BERNARD


In a message on love in 1986, the Blessed Mother said:


Dear children, again today I wish to show you how much I love you. But I regret that not everyone understands my love. I call you, then, to prayer and complete surrender to God so that you will be able to comprehend how very much I love you.


Be aware that Satan wants to affect you in everyday affairs and wants to claim first place in your lives.


Therefore, dear children, pray without ceasing ! (Weekly Message October 16, 1986). And from Psalm 118:


O give thank s to the Lord, for he is good; his steadfast love endures forever! Let Israel say, "His steadfast love endures forever."


Let the house of Aaron say, "His steadfast love endures forever." Let those who hold the Lord in awe, say,"His steadfast love endures forever." Psalm 118:1-4 Reflection:


Born in 1090 in France, St. Bernard joined the Cistercian order and later served as abbot. Renowned for his many theological and spiritual works, his words on God's love are just as pertinent today: "Love is sufficient of itself. It gives pleasure by itself and because of itself . It is its own merit, its own reward."


Application:


St. Bernard also had a great devotion to the Blessed Mother and wrote this Prayer in Praise of the Mother of God. Let us offer it today for Our Lady's intentions of peace:


Mary, our Mother, the whole world reveres you as the holiest shrine of the living God, for in you the salvation of the world dawned. The Son of God was pleased to take human form from you. You have broken down the wall of hatred, the barrier between heaven and earth which was set up by man's first disobedience. If you heaven met earth when divinity and humanity were joined in one person, the Man-God.


Mother of God, we sing your praises, but we must praise you even more. Our speech is too feeble to honor you as we ought, for no tongue is eloquent enough to express your wonders and beauty. Mary, most powerful, most holy, and worthy of all love! Your name brings new life, and the thought of your inspires love in the hearts of those devoted to you. Amen. Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 19 - ST. JOHN EUDES


"The Eucharist will be at the center, in August, of World Youth Day in Cologne . . . . I ask everyone to intensify in coming months love and devotion to the Eucharistic Jesus and to express in a courageous and clear way the real presence of the Lord" (Pope Benedict XVI, April 20, 2005).


Mother Teresa - We must become holy not because we want to feel holy, but because Christ must be able to live His life fully in us. We are to be all love, all faith, all purity for the sake of the poor we serve.


Meditations by Padre Pio - Accept all the suffering and incomprehension that comes from Above. In this way you will perfect and sanctify yourself. (FSP,119)


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - The blind we see, but the deaf we do not hear "One of life's greatest joys comes from loving those whom no one else loves. Thus do we imitate Our Heavenly Father Who certainly cannot see much in any of us creatures that is very attractive. It is curious that most people are more kind to the blind than they are to the deaf.


Aristotle commented upon this fact, saying that sight is the most spiritual of all the senses and hearing the most material. For that reason we are moved by sympathy towards those who are afflicted in the most spiritual way."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -


The sight of this great majesty of God, which I came to understand more profoundly and which is worshiped by the heavenly spirits according to their degree of grace and the hierarchies into which they are divided, did not cause my soul to be stricken with terror or fear; no, no, not at all! My soul was filled with peace and love, and the more I come to know the greatness of God, the more joyful I become that He is as He is. And I rejoice immensely in His greatness and am delighted that I am so little because, since I am little, He carries me in His arms and holds me close to His Heart. (779)

And yet, I live by it and will live by it forever. This mystery distinguishes me from every other soul here on earth or in eternity. (824)


MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY


These thoughts for a day are taken from a daily meditation book based on the Messages of Our Lady of Medjugorje by Father Richard J. Beyer, Ave Maria Press.


AUGUST 19 - ST. JOHN EUDES


Today Our Lady explains why she has been with us so long in Medjugorje:


Dear children, this is the reason for my presence among you for such a long time; to lead you to Jesus. I want to save you and, through you, to save the whole world.


Many people now live without faith; some don't even want to hear about Jesus, and yet they still want peace and fulfillment ! Children, this is the reason why I need your prayer: Prayer is the only way to save the human race (Locution Jelena & Mirijana July 30, 1987).


In John's gospel, Christ prays to the Father for the salvation of souls:


And for their sakes I sanctify myself, so that they may also be sanctified in truth. I ask not only on behalf of these, but also on behalf of those who will believe in me through their word. (Jn 17:19-20).


Reflection:


The salvation of souls was also the chief concern of St. John Eudes, a 17th century French priest who founded two religious orders and was noted for his tireless work for the poor. He was especially devoted to the Blessed Mother, and wrote a litany of praise in her honor.


Application:


It would be appropriate to offer this litany today, our intention being the same as that of Our Lady, the salvation of souls:


Hail Mary, daughter of God the Father.
Hail Mary, Mother of God the Son.
Hail Mary, Spouse of God the Holy Spirit
Hail Mary, Temple of the most Blessed Trinity.
Hail Mary, pure lily of the effulgent Trinity.
Hail Mary, celestial rose of the ineffable love of God.
Hail Mary, Virgin pure & humble, of whom the God of heaven willed to be born and with your milk to be nourished.
Hail Mary, Virgins of virgins.
Hail Mary, Queen of martyrs, whose soul was transfixed by a sword.
Hail Mary, Lady most blessed! Unto whom all power in heaven and earth is given.
Hail Mary, my Queen and my mother! My life, my sweetness and my hope.
Hail Mary, Mother most amiable.
Hail Mary, Mother most admirable.
Hail Mary, Mother of divine Love.
Hail Mary, Immaculate; conceived without sin.
Hail Mary, full of grace...
Blessed be your spouse, St. Joseph.
Blessed be your father, St. Joachim.
Blessed be your mother, St. Ann.
Blessed be your guardian, St. John.
Blessed be the holy angel, St. Gabriel.

Glory be to God the Father who chose you.
Glory be to God the Son who loved you.
Glory be to the Holy Spirit who espoused you.
O Glorious Virgin Mary, may all love and praise you.
Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us and bless us, now, and at death in the name of Jesus, your divine Son. Amen

Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 18 - ACT WITH LOVE


"I have great expectations of you, young people . . . The theme of [World Youth Day 2005]—'We have come to worship him'—suggests how you can best experience this Eucharistic year. Bring to your encounter with Jesus, hidden in the Eucharist, all the enthusiasm of your age, all your hopes, all your desire to love" (Pope John Paul II, Servant of God, Mane Nobiscum Domine, 30).


"You heard me, only Friend whom I love.
To ravish my heart, you became man.
You shed your blood, what a supreme mystery! . . .
And you still live for me on the Altar.
If I cannot see the brilliance of your Face
Or hear your sweet voice,
O my God, I can live by your grace,
I can rest on your Sacred Heart!"
(From the poem "To the Sacred Heart of Jesus," by St. Therese of Lisieux).

 


Mother Teresa - We need each other. Our lives would be empty without each other. How can we love God and His poor, if we do not love each other with whom we live?


Meditations by Padre Pio - Rest assured that the more a soul is pleasing to God, the more it must be tried. Therefore, courage, and go forward always. (Letters III, p.401)


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Impressions are a reflection of behavior or image! "People are like a mirror which reflects back on us the kind of image we cast. The kind man bears with the infirmities of others, never magnifies trifles and avoids a spirit of fault finding. He knows that the trouble with most people in the world is that they are unloved.


No one cares for them either because they are ugly or nasty, or troublesome, or so-called bores. To a great extent their character is made by the resentment they feel toward others who are unkind."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - It is a strange thing that although the soul which experiences this union with God cannot find words and expressions to describe it, nevertheless, when it meets a similar soul, the two understand each other extraordinarily well in regard to these matters, even though they speak but little with each other. A soul united with God in this way easily recognizes a similar soul, even if the latter has not revealed its interior [life] to it, but merely speaks in an ordinary way. It is a kind of spiritual kinship. Souls united with God in this way are few, fewer than we think. (768)


I have noticed that the Lord grants this grace to souls for two purposes. The first is when the soul is to do some great work which is, humanly speaking, absolutely beyond its power. In the second case, I have noticed that the Lord grants it in order that kindred souls might be guided and set at peace, although the Lord can grant this grace as He pleases and to whomever He pleases. However, I have noticed this grace in three priests, one of whom is a secular priest [probably Father Sopocko] and the other two, religious priests [probably Father Elter and Father Andrasz], and also in two religious sisters [probably Mother Michael and Sister Mary Joseph], but not in the same degree. (769)

 


MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY

 


AUGUST 18 - ACT WITH LOVE


The Blessed Mother speaks of love today:


Dear children, hatred gives rise to division and blinds one to everything and everybody. I call you, then, to spread harmony and peace, especially where you live.


Dear children, act with love. May love by your only tool. With love, change into good all that Satan is trying to destroy and take for himself. In this way you will be completely mine and I will be able to help you (Weekly Message July 31, 1986).


In his first letter, St. John takes up the theme of love:


For this is the message you have heard from the beginning, that we should love one another. We know love by this, that he laid down his life for us and we ought to lay down our lives for one another.


How does God's love abide in anyone who has the world's goods and sees a brother or sister in need and yet refuses help? Little children, let us love, not in word or speech, but in truth and action (1 Jn 3:11, 16-18).


Reflection:


St. Bede once wrote: "To love our neighbor in charity is to love God in man. "This story form T.A. Beetham's Christianity and the New Africa might illustrate.


In 1964 in the Congo there was widespread rebellion against the central government, which was to bring persecution and death to many Congo Christians. The actions of the Simbas, or Lions, were usually unpredictable.


"Why did you shelter a white woman ?"asked the Simba military court of one pastor. "Because she is my sister in Christ, the child of my own heavenly Father," was the reply.


Although he was condemned by the court to be shot, the effect of his bearing on the major was such that he set him free.


Love is spread not so much by what we say, but by what we do, by our example. To live the messages of Our Lady, to praise God with our lives, means first to love.


Application:


How can you express your love in a concrete way today?


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 17 - THE SPIRIT OF FAITH


Mother Teresa - Find Jesus, and you will find peace. Love begins at home. Everything depends on how we love each other. Do not be afraid to love until it hurts, for this is how Jesus loved.


Meditations by Padre Pio - O Lord, I am in trouble, and it is not well with me, for I am greatly vexed by this present suffering. I am caught in anguish and trouble on every side, yet I know that I am come to this hour so that You may be praised when I am made perfectly humble before You and glorified when I am clearly freed through Your grace.


O most beloved Father, may it be pleasing to You to deliver me, for what can I do, most sinful wretch, or where can I go without You? O Lord, give me patience in all my afflictions. Help me, O Lord God, and I will not fear or dread whatever troubles befall me


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - We reap what we sow! "If we start with the belief that most people in the world are crooks, it is amazing how many crooks we find. If, however, we go into the world with the assumption that everyone is nice, we are constantly running into nice people. To a great extent the world is what we make it. We get back what we give. If we sow hate, we reap hate; if we scatter love and gentleness we harvest love and happiness. "


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - My communion with the Lord is now purely spiritual. My soul is touched by God and wholly absorbs itself in Him, even to the complete forgetfulness of self. Permeated by God to its very depths, it drowns in His beauty; it completely dissolves in Him - I am at a loss to describe this, because in writing I am making use of the senses; but there, in that union, the senses are not active; there is a merging of God and the soul; and the life of God to which the soul is admitted is so great that the human tongue cannot express it.


When the soul returns to its habitual form of life, it then sees that this life is all darkness and mist and dreamlike confusion, an infant's swaddling clothes. In such moments the soul only receives from God, for of itself it does nothing; it does not make even the slightest effort; all is wrought by God. But when the soul returns to its ordinary state, it sees that it is not within its power to continue in this union.


These moments are short, but their effects are lasting. The soul cannot remain long in this state; or else it would be forcibly freed of the bonds of the body forever. Even as it is, it is sustained by a miracle of God. God allows the soul to know in a clear way how much He loves it, as though it were the only object of His delight. The soul recognizes this clearly and without a veil, so to speak. It reaches out for God with all its might, but it feels like a baby; it knows that this is not within its power. Therefore, God descends to the soul and unites it to himself in a way that... here, I must be silent, for I cannot describe what the soul experiences. (767)

 


MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY


AUGUST 17 - THE SPIRIT OF FAITH


In the first months of the apparitions, the Madonna gave this message on faith:


It is necessary for the world to be saved while there is still time, that it pray ardently and have the spirit of faith (First Years November 2, 1981).


For Paul, faith is the source of righteousness:


But now, apart from law, the righteousness of God has been disclosed, and is attested by the law and the prophets, the righteousness of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. For there is not distinction, since all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God (Rom 3:21-23).


Reflection:


Faith is one of the five core messages of Medjugorje. It is also the greatest gift of God, from which all others flow.


For addicted people, faith is not an option, but a matter of life and death. In this "age of psychology," it is significant that in the treatment of alcohol and drug addiction, a degenerative disease of body, mind, and spirit, only faith can unlock the door to recovery and a new life. We can learn a great deal from these treatment methods, especially the 12 Step program of Alcoholics Anonymous. Its major tenant is that, although one is powerless over alcohol or another addiction. God has all power, and in turning to him, his power will conquer what the individual cannot.


Application:


Today, confide to God your powerlessness over some weakness or vice (such as anger, overeating, anxiety, smoking etc.. In faith, ask that his power control what for you is uncontrollable


Message to Carol Ameche August 16,2009


External locution through Carol at Ameche Prayer Group, August 16, 2009


My dearest ones, My faithful ones, I am your Holy Spirit who speaks, the Spirit of love, the love of the Father for the Son and the Son for the Father, the enabler of all your gifts. I repeat these things again, My children, that you might remember them, that you might begin to pray more specifically to Me, as I have been requesting most recently.


My children, I ask for you to pay attention to the words you are saying in each prayer, to focus on the fact that you are praying. More attention will give you the openness for which you pray to more gifts, to more strength, to more that each of you knows you need, to make progress in the Father's plan.


My dear ones, there is so much going on behind the scenes; but it is difficult after such a long wait to believe that there is much subterfuge behind the scenes in all governments in the world. There are many more plans being made and agreed to worldwide now than ever before, based on the plans that have been made for many, many years.


My children, times are critical and you are so precious to your God and will be needed so much by His people. It is a familiar theme. How can I make you understand except that now, at this moment I pour out new understanding once again for all of you? How critical is your understanding! How critical is your coming forward with your prayers, laying them at the throne of the Father to be distributed as He wills!


Forgiveness, My people, forgiveness must be at the forefront of your thoughts, asking always new ability, new commitment on your part, new remembering of the need to remember who you need to forgive. It is repeated again; because it is everything to you, now, at this moment. It is a rounding out, a polishing, a burnishing of your whole soul and spirit, your heart, your mind and your will. Your whole self, My children, bring Me your whole self that I might help you.


Please have patience with your God for repeating words that you think you know; however, this is a call to you for much, much more awareness, commitment, and consecration. As has been said to you, bring your hearts to your prayers, My children. Think of the dreadful conditions in which people are living everywhere, every time you pray. Remember to bow your heads to the Father when you begin your prayers, especially the Lord's Prayer; but the Sign of the Cross as well. In the Name of the Father and of the Son and of Myself, your Holy Spirit.


It is greater holiness, My dear ones, as you can hear in My words, to which you are called. Gentleness is a cloak I put upon each shoulder now, of all those in the world who listen. Picture yourself and remember that you are now cloaked with new holiness.


More and more, My children, Heaven will ask for more and more; and as you ask, My dear ones, Heaven gives you more and more. Meditate upon these themes, My dear ones. They will make you more and more battle ready. Amen, little ones, Amen. You are loved. You are appreciated. You are blessed. Amen." Carol Ameche

Thursday Adoration, August 20, 2009


Jesus Desires Our Company


Today I spent time alone in adoration with Jesus and prayed for all with special needs and intentions. After making small offerings to Jesus and saying a few decades of the rosary, I prayed saying: speak Lord, Your servant listens.


Jesus responded to my heart saying: My child Eileen, In the beginning I was lonely and desired company. God made man to His own image and likeness. Yet I AM still lonely because man detaches from Me. My people can feel pain when their children detach from them, yet cannot understand how their indifference hurts Me!


I love you because you do not detach from Me! I want all My children to come and spend time with Me in prayer and meditation. Go in peace to love and serve the Lord. Continue to pray for your brothers and sisters. Amen.

 


Child's Consecration to Jesus


Take my body Jesus
Eyes and Ears and tongue
Never let them Jesus
ever do Thee wrong
Take my heart and fill it
Full of love for Thee
All I have I give Thee
Give Thyself to me


POWERFUL! prayer


Father, in the Name of Jesus, bless me even while I'm reading this prayer and bless the one that sent this to me in a special way.

Give us a double portion of your Spirit as we take back everything that the devil has stolen:


****Emotional Health
****Physical Health
****Finances
****Relationships
****Children

And I declare:


NO WEAPON FORMED AGAINST US WILL PROSPER.


I speak LIFE into every dead situation. And, I thank You that nothing is over until YOU say it's over!


Speak prophetically into our lives and to our situations:


****our households are blessed;

Say this prayer. If moved, send it to others.


Within hours countless people will have prayed for you, and you will have caused a multitude of people to pray to God for each other.


'Safety is not the absence of danger, but is the presence of God'


A child asked Jesus.... How much do U love me? Jesus replied, 'I love you this much.' and He stretched His arms to the cross and died for us.




SHORT POWERFUL PRAYER THROUGH ST. JOSEPH


"Glorious St. Joseph, tenderhearted father, faithful guardian of Jesus, chaste spouse of the Mother of God, I ask you to join me in praising God the Father through His Divine Son who died on the cross and rose again to give us sinners new life. Through the Holy Name of Jesus, pray with me that we may obtain from the eternal Father the favor we ask. (here state your intention)."


Say this prayer for nine consecutive days.


Fear not! God is your shelter (the 23rd Psalm and the Lord’s Prayer. God never fails). Don’t fail him. Call on Jesus. Jesus on the mainline, tell him what you want!

Daily Consecration to the Eternal Father


For the greater glory of God and for the salvation of all, I consecrate myself to You, O' Eternal Father, as one of Your faithful remnant. Behold, I come to do Your Will. With the help of Your Grace, I will keep Your Commandments. I will love and reverence You with all my heart, soul, mind and strength. I will love my neighbor as You love me.


I make this Consecration through the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary and the Sacred Heart of Your beloved Son, Jesus.


O' Eternal Father, send forth Your Holy Spirit to restore my/our broken image and likeness of You. Send forth also Your entire Heavenly Court, all the celestial choirs of Your angels and all Your Saints, to aid me/us in my/our struggle against all the forces of evil in this present darkness. Amen. (Adapted from the Father of All Mankind Apostolate).


The Lord's Prayer


How many of us have said the “Our Father” with so little thought, so little reverence, and so little fruitfulness? However, when we are open to the Holy Spirit within us and pray from the heart, look at what can happen:"


Our Father, (“Our” Father—not “My” Father - all of God’s children of all races, all colors & all creeds)


Our Father, (Abba, “Daddy” God)


Who art in Heaven, (and Who art in me)


Hallowed be Thy Name. (Holy be Thy Name, praised be Thy Name, thanks be to Thy Most Holy Name)


Thy Kingdom come. (now - on earth and in me)


Thy Will be done, (now - on earth and in me)


on earth as it is in Heaven. (at the Throne of God, with the Trinity, Our Lady and all the Angels and Saints)


Give us this day our daily bread. (the Bread of your Divine Will, the Bread of Life in the Eucharist, and the bread we need to eat to sustain our bodies)


And forgive us our trespasses(forgive us our sins, our imperfections and our hesitancies in the face of temptation)


As we forgive those (or as we choose not to forgive those) who trespass against us.


And lead us not into temptation,(for we are weak, we are worthless, we are wretched & we are nothing)


But deliver us from evil.(for it is only through your grace, not by our works alonenor our merit that we can escape eternal damnation)


Amen. (So I hope. So be it).

 

 


Prayer to the Blessed Virgin Mary Protectress of Africa


Holy Mary, Mother of God, Protectress of Africa, you have given to the world the true Light, Jesus Christ. Through your obedience to the Father and the grace of the Holy Spirit, you have given us the source of our reconciliation and our justice, Jesus Christ, our peace and our joy.


Mother of Tenderness and Wisdom, show us Jesus, your Son and the Son of God. Guide our path of conversion, so that Jesus might shine his glory on us in every aspect of our personal, familial and social lives.


Mother, full of Mercy and Justice, through your docility to the Spirit, the Counselor, obtain for us the grace to be witnesses of the Risen Lord, so that we will increasingly become the salt of the earth and the light of the world.


Mother of Perpetual Help, we entrust to your maternal intercession the preparation and fruits of the Second Special Assembly for Africa. Queen of Peace, pray for us! Our Lady of Africa, pray for us!

MARY of Egypt , as Maria Aegyptica . The sunrise of my life came in 344 A.D. I left home at 12 spending 17 years of my youth entertaining, whether it was by music, dancing, or in prostitution. My family was wealthy. But wanting to be on my own, I left it for Alexandria, Kemet. But through the grace of God, I was called to Christianity, after visiting Jerusalem, the places where Yeshua Maryam, and the apostles walked and talked, the Palestine Holy Land.

"I bless you all"


Dear Friends,


The True Wisdom


Yet we do speak a wisdom to those who are mature, but not a wisdom of this age, nor of the rulers of this age who are passing away. Rather, we speak God’s wisdom, mysterious, hidden, which God predetermined before the ages for our glory, and which none of the rulers of this age knew: for if they had known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.


ut as it is written: What eye has not seen, and ear had not heard, and what has not entered the human heart, what God has prepared for those who love him, this God has revealed to us through the Spirit. For the Spirit scrutinizes everything, even the depths of God. Among human beings, who knows what pertains to a person except the spirit of the person that is within?


Similarly, no one knows what pertains to God except the Spirit of God. We have not received the spirit of the world but the Spirit that is from God, so that we may understand the things freely given us by God.


And we speak about them not with words taught by human wisdom, but with words taught by the Spirit, describing spiritual realities in spiritual terms. 1 Cor 2:6-13


Here is the message of Our Lord given to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words,


It is a fact that the world is opposed to Me and My thoughts are in opposition to what the world thinks. The world is very secular and lives only for today without any thought of God or the afterlife. The world looks to gratify the senses and believes that worldly pleasure is all that you need. This worldâ’s wisdom is foolishness for those who believe in Me and want to live with Me.


My followers are filled with the Spirit of God and they are led by Him. Every day ask the Father to send you the Holy Spirit so that you will know what belongs to God and you will understand the gifts that the Spirit brings to you. May your spirit be alive with the Spirit of God and you will be truly filled with peace and joy.


Follow the commandments of God and you will have a close and intimate relationship with the Father, with the Holy Spirit and with Me. You will love every person even those who hate you. Pray for all those who are far from Me that they return to Me in the near future. I bless you all. Father Melvin

Warnings of What Is To Come!


Today I attended the 8:00 AM Mass at our parish, Our Lady Of Sorrows where I prayed for all with special needs and intentions, including my own. I made small offerings to Jesus and Mary and made an Act Of Contrition in preparation of receiving the most precious Body and Blood of Jesus in the Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist.


After receiving the most sacred Host in the Sacrament of Holy Communion, I knelt in silent commune with Jesus. There was no message from Jesus! However, I did have a vision, which follows:


I saw a deep dark eye of a tunnel, all was black and I could barely make out a very small craft in the blackness of an individual with oars attempting to get out of the path of the eye. But much as he paddled, he continued to go round and round in a circle.


Note: As Jesus has warned, there is much devastation to come and many will be swallowed up in the darkness if they do not remain in Him!

Feast of The Assumption


Today my husband and oldest grandson went to the 4:30 P.M. Mass at a nearby parish, Saint Bernadette's. I made small offerings to Jesus and Mary and prayed for all with special needs and intentions.


After making an Act of contrition, I received the most sacred Body and Blood of Jesus Christ in the Sacrament of the Holy Eucharist. On my knees I gave thanks to Jesus and felt an extreme measure of peace, joy and contentment just being in church and receiving Holy Communion with my husband and grandson.


At that moment and without asking Jesus to speak (if He chose to), Jesus whispered into my heart these words: Eileen My child the peace, joy and contentment you are feeling now is a small measure of the peace, joy and contentment that satisfies every yearning one has ever experienced in life. Go in peace to love and serve the Lord. Continue to pray for your brothers and sisters. Amen.

WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 12, 2009


MY DEAR DEAR PRECIOUS LITTLE CHILDREN,


AS YOU GATHER IN PRAYER I MAKE RECOGNITION OF EACH OF YOU. I TAKE YOU TO MY HEART AND THERE IN ITS QUIET I HOLD YOU.


THE WORLD IS IN CHAOS AND STILL NO ONE OF THE WORLD TURNS TO GOD. THEY RESIST HIS LOVE AND MERCY, INSULTING HIM WITH THEIR OWN ARROGANCE. HOW MAN HAS BUILT HIMSELF UP - THINKING THAT THEY CAN FIX WHAT IS SO TERRIBLY WRONG. IT IS GOD WHO CAN CHANGE THE HEARTS OF MAN. IT IS GOD WHO DECIDES IF IT IS TO BE HOT OR COLD.


IT IS GOD WHO CAN FORGIVE THE WORST OF THE WORST, BUT HE IS IGNORED AND FORGOTTEN. PRIDE HAS SET IN AND HOW SAD FOR MANKIND WHO WILL DESTROY THEMSELVES, IF THEY DO NOT REMEMBER FROM WHENCE THEY COME AND WHO HAS THE POWER OVER ALL CREATION.


MY CHILDREN, I GATHER YOUR ROSARIES, AND FROM THEM IS WON GRACE, THE GRACE AVAILABLE TO ALL, TO SAVE THEMSELVES AND THE WORLD. IF ONLY THEY COULD FIND THEMSELVES IN CONTEMPT AND TURN TO GOD WITH SINCERE AND CONTRITE HEARTS.


PRAY MY LITTLE ONES, PRAY. YOU ARE THE LIGHT PLACED IN THIS DARK, DARK WORLD.


YOU MY CHILDREN HAVE RECEIVED BEYOND WORDS. YOU HAVE REAPED A MULTITUDE OF GRACE AND FROM YOUR FIDELITY, YOUR SINCERITY, YOUR LOVE, YOU SHALL FIND YOURSELVES IN THE NEW HEAVENS AND THE NEW EARTH. HOW BEAUTIFUL IT SHALL BE.


YOU WILL COME FROM AN UGLY AND SINFUL WORLD INTO PARADISE. TRUST MY CHILDREN AND REMAIN EVER LITTLE AND DEPENDENT ON THE FATHER. HE LOVES YOU AND HAS MADE THIS KNOWN TO ME AND TO ALL OF HEAVEN. FROM YOUR PRAYERS AND SUFFERINGS HAS COME A BOND OF LOVE AND IT SHALL NOT BE BROKEN.


NOW I DRAW FROM MY HEART A SPECIAL BLESSING. I GIVE IT TO EACH ONE IN THE NAME OF THE FATHER, THE SON, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT.


THE BLESSING OF CHRIST FALLS UPON YOU AS WELL, SO GIVE FROM YOUR HEARTS TRUE LOVE, PRAISING AND THANKING GOD NOW AND FOREVER.

Jesus Promises His Children a Bright Tomorrow


Today I went to the 8:30 AM Mass, received Holy Communion and prayed the rosary for more men to join the priesthood, as well as for stopping abortion.


After Holy Communion, I knelt in silent commune with Jesus giving thanks and professing my love for Him. And I prayed as I always do, Speak Lord, Your servant listens.


Jesus responded saying; My child Eileen, tomorrow will be full of sunshine for those that are in Me as I AM in them. Go in peace to love and serve the Lord. Continue to pray for your brothers and sisters.


Note: In most of Jesus' messages He speaks of repentance and time growing short. Today He continues to speak of what is in store for those who love Him and obey His Commandments!

 

 


SHORT POWERFUL PRAYER THROUGH ST. JOSEPH


"Glorious St. Joseph, tenderhearted father, faithful guardian of Jesus, chaste spouse of the Mother of God, I ask you to join me in praising God the Father through His Divine Son who died on the cross and rose again to give us sinners new life. Through the Holy Name of Jesus, pray with me that we may obtain from the eternal Father the favor we ask. (here state your intention)."


Say this prayer for nine consecutive days.


Fear not! God is your shelter (the 23rd Psalm and the Lord’s Prayer. God never fails). Don’t fail him. Call on Jesus. Jesus on the mainline, tell him what you want!

Daily Consecration to the Eternal Father


For the greater glory of God and for the salvation of all, I consecrate myself to You, O' Eternal Father, as one of Your faithful remnant. Behold, I come to do Your Will. With the help of Your Grace, I will keep Your Commandments. I will love and reverence You with all my heart, soul, mind and strength. I will love my neighbor as You love me.


I make this Consecration through the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary and the Sacred Heart of Your beloved Son, Jesus.


O' Eternal Father, send forth Your Holy Spirit to restore my/our broken image and likeness of You. Send forth also Your entire Heavenly Court, all the celestial choirs of Your angels and all Your Saints, to aid me/us in my/our struggle against all the forces of evil in this present darkness. Amen. (Adapted from the Father of All Mankind Apostolate).


The Lord's Prayer


How many of us have said the “Our Father” with so little thought, so little reverence, and so little fruitfulness? However, when we are open to the Holy Spirit within us and pray from the heart, look at what can happen:"


Our Father, (“Our” Father—not “My” Father - all of God’s children of all races, all colors & all creeds)


Our Father, (Abba, “Daddy” God)


Who art in Heaven, (and Who art in me)


Hallowed be Thy Name. (Holy be Thy Name, praised be Thy Name, thanks be to Thy Most Holy Name)


Thy Kingdom come. (now - on earth and in me)


Thy Will be done, (now - on earth and in me)


on earth as it is in Heaven. (at the Throne of God, with the Trinity, Our Lady and all the Angels and Saints)


Give us this day our daily bread. (the Bread of your Divine Will, the Bread of Life in the Eucharist, and the bread we need to eat to sustain our bodies)


And forgive us our trespasses(forgive us our sins, our imperfections and our hesitancies in the face of temptation)


As we forgive those (or as we choose not to forgive those) who trespass against us.


And lead us not into temptation,(for we are weak, we are worthless, we are wretched & we are nothing)


But deliver us from evil.(for it is only through your grace, not by our works alonenor our merit that we can escape eternal damnation)


Amen. (So I hope. So be it).

 

 


Prayer to the Blessed Virgin Mary Protectress of Africa


Holy Mary, Mother of God, Protectress of Africa, you have given to the world the true Light, Jesus Christ. Through your obedience to the Father and the grace of the Holy Spirit, you have given us the source of our reconciliation and our justice, Jesus Christ, our peace and our joy.


Mother of Tenderness and Wisdom, show us Jesus, your Son and the Son of God. Guide our path of conversion, so that Jesus might shine his glory on us in every aspect of our personal, familial and social lives.


Mother, full of Mercy and Justice, through your docility to the Spirit, the Counselor, obtain for us the grace to be witnesses of the Risen Lord, so that we will increasingly become the salt of the earth and the light of the world.


Mother of Perpetual Help, we entrust to your maternal intercession the preparation and fruits of the Second Special Assembly for Africa. Queen of Peace, pray for us! Our Lady of Africa, pray for us!

"I bless you"


Dear Friends,


The Canticle of Mary


Mary said,


"My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord,
My spirit rejoices in God my savior.
For he has looked upon his handmaid's lowliness;
Behold, from now on will all ages call me blessed.
The Mighty One has done great things for me, and holy is his name.
His mercy is from age to age to those who fear him.
He has shown might with his arm, dispersed the arrogant of mind and heart.
He has thrown down the rulers from their thrones but lifted up the lowly.
The hungry he has filled with good things; the rich he has sent away empty.
He has helped Israel his servant, remembering his mercy,
According to his promise to our fathers,
To Abraham and to his descendants forever."

 


Here is a message from Our Blessed Mother addressed to Joseph Melvin. She spoke to him in these words, "It is a great joy for Me that you will be celebrating the Feast of My Assumption at the little shrine. On this memorable day when the Church celebrates My entrance into heaven body and soul, I wish to tell you that great changes will happen soon regarding My shrine here. I wish that it be built as soon as possible as a beacon to the world that I am for life, for I am the Mother of Life. I gave birth to Jesus who is the Way, the Truth and the Life. He is for life and I, His Mother, am for life too.


Another great miracle will happen at the little shrine very soon. I will give you the date when we are very near to the event. I will be present there together with many angels and saints. Jesus, My Son, will make an appearance too. He wants the conversion of all the peoples of the world. So many people have rejected Him and many have rejected Me too.


I call you all today to join the angels and saints in celebrating this Feast Day in My honor. Come to church and celebrate Holy Mass and receive Holy Communion, for one day you, too, will be in heaven body and soul if you follow all that Jesus told you. I love you."


Father Melvin

 


[Fr. Doucette: 299] Fri, Aug 14, 2009: "Show the world that you are a Christian


Friday, August 14, 2009 "Show the world that you are a Christian"


Dear Friends,


Paradox of the Cross


The message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. For it is written: I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the learning of the learned I will set aside. Where is the wise one? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of the age? Has not God made the wisdom the world foolish? For since in the wisdom of God the world did not come to know God through wisdom,


it was the will of God through the foolishness of the proclamation to save those who have faith. For Jews demand signs and Greeks look for wisdom, but we proclaim Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Greeks, but to those who are called, Jews and Greeks alike, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God. For the foolishness of God is wiser than human wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than human strength. 1 Cor. 1:18-25

 


Here is the message of Our Lord and Savior addressed to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words,


The cross is the great sign for the world and especially for all those who believe in Me that God loves them. The Father sent His Son into the world to live as a man and to teach all the truths that come from the Father.


I am the Son of God and I came to take away your sins by My suffering and death on the cross. This sacrifice in My blood, I offered to the Father for your redemption. The Father accepted My sacrifice for you and now if you believe in Me, your sins will be washed away and you will become the beloved children of the Father and My brothers and sisters.


Many have rejected My Cross, as they do not think that there are such things as sins. They are blind because of lack of faith and so they do not see the many sins they have committed. Every person in the world is a sinner and needs salvation. Every person in the world needs the cross in order to have his or her sins forgiven.


The cross is the great symbol of My love for you, for I am your Savior who has come to bring you out of the kingdom of darkness and to bring you to My Kingdom of light and joy. Do not fear the cross but have the cross in your home and I desire that all who believe in Me have a cross in front of their home. Show the world that you are a Christian who loves Me.â€


Father Melvin

"Love your brothers and sisters"


Dear Friends,


Patience and Self-denial


We who are strong ought to put up with the failings of the weak and not to please ourselves; let each of us please our neighbor for the good, for building up. For Christ did not please himself; but as it is written, "The insults of those who insult you fall upon me."


For whatever was written previously was written for our instruction, that by endurance and by the encouragement of the scriptures we might have hope. May the God of endurance and encouragement grant you to think in harmony with one another, in keeping with Christ Jesus, that with one accord you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.


God's Fidelity and Mercy


Welcome one another, then, as Christ welcomed you, for the glory of God. For I say that Christ became a minister of the circumcised to show God's truthfulness, to confirm the promises to the patriarchs, but so that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy. As it is written: "Therefore, I will praise you among the Gentiles and sing praises to your name." And again it says: "Rejoice, O Gentiles, with his people." And again: "Praise the Lord all your Gentiles, and let all the peoples praise him." And again Isaiah says, "The root of Jesse shall come, raised up to rule the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles hope." Romans 15:1-12

 


Here is the message of Our Lord addressed to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words,


"I came on earth for the salvation of all people in all the nations of the world. My death on the cross is the sacrifice accepted by the Father to take away your sins and to bring you into the Kingdom I established for you. What you have to do is this: to believe in Me, your Savior, and to repent of all your sins and to confess them to a priest for your absolution.


You are to glorify the Father, the Creator of all the people on earth, and to thank Him for all that He has given you. You are to pray and to help those of little faith that they too may grow in their faith and love of Me. Endure till the end and you will be rewarded with life eternal in heaven. Love your brothers and sisters and pray for them."


Father Melvin


Message to Eileen Renders August 13, 2009


Thursday Adoration, August 13, 2009


Jesus Tells Us It Is A Time For


Today I spent time alone with Jesus in adoration and prayed for all with special needs and intentions, including my own. After making small offerings to Jesus and Mary, I prayed and read from our church book where people ask questions on our faith/religion and the answers are typed and placed within the book. Answers are obtained from the Vatican readings and our church.


On my knees I prayed and asked Jesus Speak Lord (always if it be His will), Your servant listens Jesus responded saying, My child Eileen, the time is soon approaching when the opportunity for repentance will come to an end. Those who have remained in Me will be comforted while others will be stricken with fear! Go in peace to love and serve the Lord. Continue to pray for your brothers and sisters. Amen.

Jesus Promises His Children a Bright Tomorrow


Today I went to the 8:30 AM Mass, received Holy Communion and prayed the rosary for more men to join the priesthood, as well as for stopping abortion.


After Holy Communion, I knelt in silent commune with Jesus giving thanks and professing my love for Him. And I prayed as I always do, Speak Lord, Your servant listens.


Jesus responded saying; My child Eileen, tomorrow will be full of sunshine for those that are in Me as I AM in them. Go in peace to love and serve the Lord. Continue to pray for your brothers and sisters.


Note: In most of Jesus' messages He speaks of repentance and time growing short. Today He continues to speak of what is in store for those who love Him and obey His Commandments!


Message to m.tague (date not given)


GOD THE FATHER SPEAKS:


Still, after many years of speaking to you, My children of the world, you persist in living your sinful lives. You ARE following satan! Now when this era is nearly over you have little time remaining to return to Me, to seek forgiveness, to change your ways, to convert. Soon the world will live under a very evil dictatorship. USA beware for your hour IS near!


If you do NOT repent NOW- - -it soon will be too late for MY ARM IS FALLING! Conditons ARE worsening hourly! Three quarters to two-thirds of the people living at the time of the chastisement WILL NOT make it to Heaven!!!


CHANGE YOU LIVES!

 


REPENT!
LOVE!
PRAY!
FOLLOW ME!
LISTEN TO MY WORDS!
OBEY YOUR GOD NOT MAN!!!
CONCENTRATION CAMPS ARE EVERYWHERE!

SHORT POWERFUL PRAYER THROUGH ST. JOSEPH


"Glorious St. Joseph, tenderhearted father, faithful guardian of Jesus, chaste spouse of the Mother of God, I ask you to join me in praising God the Father through His Divine Son who died on the cross and rose again to give us sinners new life. Through the Holy Name of Jesus, pray with me that we may obtain from the eternal Father the favor we ask. (here state your intention)."


Say this prayer for nine consecutive days.


Fear not! God is your shelter (the 23rd Psalm and the Lord’s Prayer. God never fails). Don’t fail him. Call on Jesus. Jesus on the mainline, tell him what you want!

Daily Consecration to the Eternal Father


For the greater glory of God and for the salvation of all, I consecrate myself to You, O' Eternal Father, as one of Your faithful remnant. Behold, I come to do Your Will. With the help of Your Grace, I will keep Your Commandments. I will love and reverence You with all my heart, soul, mind and strength. I will love my neighbor as You love me.


I make this Consecration through the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary and the Sacred Heart of Your beloved Son, Jesus.


O' Eternal Father, send forth Your Holy Spirit to restore my/our broken image and likeness of You. Send forth also Your entire Heavenly Court, all the celestial choirs of Your angels and all Your Saints, to aid me/us in my/our struggle against all the forces of evil in this present darkness. Amen. (Adapted from the Father of All Mankind Apostolate).


The Lord's Prayer


How many of us have said the “Our Father” with so little thought, so little reverence, and so little fruitfulness? However, when we are open to the Holy Spirit within us and pray from the heart, look at what can happen:"


Our Father, (“Our” Father—not “My” Father - all of God’s children of all races, all colors & all creeds)


Our Father, (Abba, “Daddy” God)


Who art in Heaven, (and Who art in me)


Hallowed be Thy Name. (Holy be Thy Name, praised be Thy Name, thanks be to Thy Most Holy Name)


Thy Kingdom come. (now - on earth and in me)


Thy Will be done, (now - on earth and in me)


on earth as it is in Heaven. (at the Throne of God, with the Trinity, Our Lady and all the Angels and Saints)


Give us this day our daily bread. (the Bread of your Divine Will, the Bread of Life in the Eucharist, and the bread we need to eat to sustain our bodies)


And forgive us our trespasses(forgive us our sins, our imperfections and our hesitancies in the face of temptation)


As we forgive those (or as we choose not to forgive those) who trespass against us.


And lead us not into temptation,(for we are weak, we are worthless, we are wretched & we are nothing)


But deliver us from evil.(for it is only through your grace, not by our works alonenor our merit that we can escape eternal damnation)


Amen. (So I hope. So be it).

 

 


Prayer to the Blessed Virgin Mary Protectress of Africa


Holy Mary, Mother of God, Protectress of Africa, you have given to the world the true Light, Jesus Christ. Through your obedience to the Father and the grace of the Holy Spirit, you have given us the source of our reconciliation and our justice, Jesus Christ, our peace and our joy.


Mother of Tenderness and Wisdom, show us Jesus, your Son and the Son of God. Guide our path of conversion, so that Jesus might shine his glory on us in every aspect of our personal, familial and social lives.


Mother, full of Mercy and Justice, through your docility to the Spirit, the Counselor, obtain for us the grace to be witnesses of the Risen Lord, so that we will increasingly become the salt of the earth and the light of the world.


Mother of Perpetual Help, we entrust to your maternal intercession the preparation and fruits of the Second Special Assembly for Africa. Queen of Peace, pray for us! Our Lady of Africa, pray for us!

[Fr. Doucette: 297] Tue, Aug 11, 2009: "I embrace you all"

"I embrace you all"


Dear Friends,


To live and Die for Christ


Welcome anyone who is weak in faith, but not for disputes over opinions. One person believes that one may eat anything, while the weak person eats only vegetables. The one who eats must not despise the one who abstains, and the one who abstains must not pass judgment on the one who eats; for God has welcomed him.


Who are you to pass judgment on someone else’s servant? Before his own master he stands or falls. And he will be upheld, for the Lord is able to make him stand. For one person considers one day more important than another, while another person considers all days alike. Let everyone be fully persuaded in his own mind.


Whoever observes the day, observes it for the Lord. Also whoever eats, eats for the Lord, since he gives thanks to God; while whoever abstains, abstains for the Lord and gives thanks to God. None of us lives for oneself, and no one dies for oneself. For if we live, we live for the Lord, and if we die, we die for the Lord; so then, whether we live or die, we are the Lord’s.


For this is why Christ died and came to life, that he might be Lord of both the dead and the living. Why then do you judge your brother? Or you, why do you look down on your brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of God; for it is written: “As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bend before me, and every tongue shall give praise to God. So then each of us shall give an account of himself to God. Romans 14:1-12


Below is the message of Our Lord and Savior given to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words,


Accept every person even those who are weak in faith. They might have strange opinions and believe that only vegetables are good for him or her. They might prefer Friday instead of Monday or store food because they think the end of the world is near. You should not take that into account for they are only opinions. What is important is to believe in Me, their Savior, and follow what I have taught them.


Do not judge your brother or sister. Accept each person with love and be kind to each one. Do not judge and you will not be judged. Judgment brings condemnation upon you because you do not know the person interiorly. Only God knows the person completely and so He alone can judge. Live, My dear friends, only for Me. You belong to Me so in everything you do, do it for Me and you will be rewarded. So, whether you live or die, remember you belong to Me. Put your faith into practice every day by your prayers, your good work and by going to Mass often and receiving Me in the Eucharist as often as possible. Do not follow the ways of the world because it rejects Me. Seek your Savior every day and I will help you. I embrace you all.


Father Melvin


[Fr. Doucette: 298] Wed, Aug 12, 2009: "Love your brothers and sisters"


Wednesday, August 12, 2009


"Love your brothers and sisters"


Dear Friends,


Patience and Self-denial


We who are strong ought to put up with the failings of the weak and not to please ourselves; let each of us please our neighbor for the good, for building up. For Christ did not please himself; but as it is written, The insults of those who insult you fall upon me. For whatever was written previously was written for our instruction, that by endurance and by the encouragement of the scriptures we might have hope.


May the God of endurance and encouragement grant you to think in harmony with one another, in keeping with Christ Jesus, that with one accord you may with one voice glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.


God’s Fidelity and Mercy


Welcome one another, then, as Christ welcomed you, for the glory of God. For I say that Christ became a minister of the circumcised to show God’s truthfulness, to confirm the promises to the patriarchs, but so that the Gentiles might glorify God for his mercy. As it is written:


Therefore, I will praise you among the Gentiles and sing praises to your name. And again it says: Rejoice, O Gentiles, with his people. And again: Praise the Lord all your Gentiles, and let all the peoples praise him. And again Isaiah says, The root of Jesse shall come, raised up to rule the Gentiles; in him shall the Gentiles hope. Romans 15:1-12


Here is the message of Our Lord addressed to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words,


I came on earth for the salvation of all people in all the nations of the world. My death on the cross is the sacrifice accepted by the Father to take away your sins and to bring you into the Kingdom I established for you. What you have to do is this: to believe in Me, your Savior, and to repent of all your sins and to confess them to a priest for your absolution.


You are to glorify the Father, the Creator of all the people on earth, and to thank Him for all that He has given you. You are to pray and to help those of little faith that they too may grow in their faith and love of Me. Endure till the end and you will be rewarded with life eternal in heaven. Love your brothers and sisters and pray for them.


Father Melvin

Message from Our Blessed Mother to Carlos Lopez August 5,2009


August 5, 2009 St. Bruno’s Church, San Bruno, CA


Dear little children, Praised be Jesus!


I come this night to invite you to pray more, to continue to pray without ceasing. I come to ask you to pray for the peace of the world and for the peace of this nation. Pray for the peace in your hearts; pray for peace to dwell in yourselves.


Little children, my sadness is great at seeing that there are many of my chosen ones who are leaving and abandoning me. Are you my little ones, also going to abandon me?


O my beloved ones, when Jesus comes, what kind of home are you going to build for Him? In many of my chosen ones there still exists rejection, lies, jealousy, insincerity, infidelity and sin. How can you build a good home if it is still not possible for many of you to live in peace among one another?


O my little ones, I beg you now – pray, pray, pray and unite yourselves more than ever in a perfect way to me. If you do, I will teach you to build that worthy and perfect home so that when Jesus comes, He will be able to come and dwell in your hearts.


My children, stop hating, stop talking bad about each other, stop sinning with impure passions that darken your lives and minds and do not allow your hearts to obtain the good and love.


Pray, pray, pray with humility. Pray with love. Pray in peace and you will see that the Holy Spirit will come to dwell in your souls and hearts with strength and love.


Thank you for having accepted my invitation of peace and my message of this night. I give my motherly blessing to my priests and deacon who helped me this night and I leave you within my Immaculate Heart. May the peace of God be always with all of you.


In the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.


Message to June Sept.25,2006


MY NAME IS JUNE I AM 75 YEARS OLD I HAVE HAD LOCUTIONS FOR 12 YEARS. FROM JESUS, OUR BLESSED MOTHER, ST.THERESA LITTLE FLOWER, PADRE PIO, POPE JOHN PAUL, ST. MICHAEL THE ARCHANGEL. I OFFER YOU A MESSAGE FROM PADRE PIO.


9/25/06


June it is I Padre Pio. Well, now little friend we can talk but maybe for just a little while. June when you take the Eucharist today and you will for certain hold it gently in your hand as if you are holding a new born baby, cradle it in the palm of your hand then gently place it in your mouth. It is to be taken with so much love.


I see people gobble it lit it's a piece of hard bread crunching it. Gently June so very gently let it begin to melt in your must like chocolate its pretend sweetness is love o the body and blood of Jesus, your Savior, of the worlds Savior.


It's a reward of sorts June to come to his table of plenty and consume his body and blood. All the love in the world that is offered does not compare what is given with the love ot Eucharist that flows trhough it.


One thing I cannot tolerate is people rushing out of church right after communion. People do not realize what a insult that is. Only excuse if they are suddenly ill. I wish I could drag them back to their seat by the nape of their neck and give them a strong tongue lashing they would never do this inult to our Savior again.


It is so stupid June just to get out of church and beat people out of the parking lot. There is no respect here June it just drives me crazy. Father Steve mentions this and other priest but people continue to do this insult to our Savior.


They are not setting a good example to the little children who have just made first communion and go back to church and witness this. I wish I could lock the doors until the masses are ended. Sometimes June free will is not a good thing. I see you are wanted in the next room. I will talk to you another time. Prasie Jesus always. PIO.


Message to Eileen Renders August 13, 2009


Thursday Adoration, August 13, 2009


Jesus Tells Us It Is A Time For


Today I spent time alone with Jesus in adoration and prayed for all with special needs and intentions, including my own. After making small offerings to Jesus and Mary, I prayed and read from our church book where people ask questions on our faith/religion and the answers are typed and placed within the book.

On my knees I prayed and asked Jesus Speak Lord (always if it be His will), Your servant listens Jesus responded saying, My child Eileen, the time is soon approaching when the opportunity for repentance will come to an end. Those who have remained in Me will be comforted while others will be stricken with fear! Go in peace to love and serve the Lord. Continue to pray for your brothers and sisters. Amen.


Message to June August 28, 2000


THIS MESSAGE AND OTHER I GIVE TO THE ROSARY GROUP THAT CAME TO MY HOUSE. JUNE


Come, little children, let me show you the way, the way to Jesus who only wants your love and undying devotion. Do you not wish to go to heaven, where there is not hate or malice, only love? We prepared a home for you to come and fill it with love. Heaven is a place of great beauty and love.


Do you not seek this place where flowers grow everywhere and the angel sing freely for your enjoyment? Do not leave an empty house in heaven.


Everyone that is born has a house in heaven. You're the one who holds the key to your door. Do not let it rust and decay. Keep the key to your door. Do not let it rust and decay. Keep the key close to your heart where Jesus is. The key will remain gold, my child, as long as you love my Son and keep his Commandments.


Carry this key with you. Do not let it fall from your hands, because if you do, your house will remain empty and you will never know how beautiful a house you can own. Your house will be decorated with love and laughter and joy beyond measure. It is ready and waiting for you. Feel free to enter as long as you hold the key and it remains gold.

L. began to receive a message from the Father and said, "Jesus, please cover me with Your Most Precious Blood."(and other various prayers of testing)


Then God the Father,


"Dearest children, when a person dies, their soul is controlled by the ONE they followed or honored on earth. I gave you freewill which is yours till death. It is NOT the deceased soul that bothers you but satan who directs him. Remember all hell is loosed.


Evil IS EVERYWHERE. His control IS magnetic! Follow Me and he will bother you, tormented you day and night. Stay with Me! Don't give up for if you do hell's torment will be yours FOREVER! Things will change for I am is control of all- - -everything. Although times will get worse, the end of this sinful era IS in sight (My time only)!


Be totally prepared in body, mind AND spirit!


I envelope you in My love! Will you accept it?


Will you remain faithful to your One, True, and Only God?


Magnetize yourself to ME!


I love you!


I will NEVER forget My own!!!"

The Rosary Solves All Problems


Regarding the Holy Rosary, Sister Lucia (the lone surviving seer of Fatima) speaking to Father Fuentes in the December 26, 1957 interview said:


"Look, Father, the Most Holy Virgin in these last times in which we live has given new efficacy in the recitation of the Holy Rosary.


She has given this efficacy to such an extent that there is no problem, no matter how difficult it is, whether temporal or above all spiritual, in the personal life of each one of us, of our families, of the families in the world, or of the religious communities, or even of the life of peoples and nations that cannot be solved by the Rosary.


There is no problem, I tell you, no matter how difficult it is, that we cannot solve by the prayer of the Holy Rosary. With the Holy Rosary, we will save ourselves. We will sanctify ourselves. We will console Our Lord and obtain the salvation of many souls."


St. Maximilian Mary Kolbe, Priest, Martyr, Poland (1894-1941)—Feast, Aug. 14 St. Maximilian—an ardent proponent of Adoration—wrote, "He remains among us until the end of the world. He dwells on so many altars, though so often offended and profaned."


Saturday, Eve of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary into Heaven:


"My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord, my spirit rejoices in God my savior" (Lk 1:46-47). "O glorious Mother Mary . . . consumed with the desire to be united with thy Divine Son in Heaven, Thy soul departed from Thy body and united itself to Him, Who, out of the excessive love He bore for Thee, His Mother, whose virginal body was His first tabernacle, took that body into Heaven, and there, amidst the acclaims of the angels and saints, reinfused into it thy soul" (Charles V. Lacey).


Mary is assumed into Heaven and Her Heart is made forever one with the Heart of Jesus. These two Hearts beat as one. Where Jesus is, there Mary is also. Blessed Mother Mary is called Our Lady of The Most Blessed Sacrament. We pray for union with The Sacred Eucharistic Heart of Jesus! We ask Our Blessed Mother Mary to pray for us. (From our August 2004 "Could you not watch one hour with Me?" Newsletter)


"Will you remain cold and indifferent? No! If there are societies for the spreading of evil, you will form a society for the spreading of good, a society of adoration . . . . And how often have I repeated it, nothing short of perpetual [Eucharistic] adoration will start a conflagration . . . . Never should Our Lord find Himself alone here" (St. Peter Julian Eymard).

 


Mother Teresa - In the silence of the heart, God speaks and you have to listen. Then in the fullness of your heart, because it is full of God, full of love, full of compassion, full of faith, your mouth will speak. Both humility and prayer grow from an ear, mind, and tongue that have lived in silence with God, for in the silence of the heart God speaks.


Meditations by Padre Pio - We must not stop doing good even if it scandalizes the Pharisees (CE,37)


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - A kind person is one of a kind! "Because kindness is related to love, it follows that the kind person loves another not for the pleasure the other person gives, nor because the other person can do us a kindness in return, but because the other person is loveable in himself. The basic reason why everyone is lovable is because God made him."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - October 2, 1936, the First Friday of the month. After Holy Communion, I suddenly saw the Lord Jesus, who spoke these words to me: Now I know that it is not for the graces or gifts that you love me, but because My will is dearer to you than life. That is why I am uniting myself with you so intimately as with no other creature. (707) At that moment, Jesus disappeared. My soul was filled with the presence of God. I know that the gaze of the Mighty One rests upon me.


I plunged myself completely in the joy that flows from God. I continued throughout the whole day without interruption, thus immersed in God. In the evening, I fell as if into a faint and a strange sort of agony.


My love wants to equal the love of the Mighty One. It is drawn to Him so vehemently that it is impossible, without some special grace from God, to bear the vastness of such a grace in this life. But I see clearly that Jesus himself is sustaining me and strengthening me and making me capable of communing with Him. In all this, the soul is particularly active. (708)


It sometimes happens, while I am listening to the meditation, that one word puts me in very close union with the Lord, and I no longer know what Father is saying. I know that I am close to the most merciful Heart of Jesus; my whole spirit is entirely plunged in Him, and in one moment I learn more than during long hours of intellectual inquiry and meditation. These are sudden lights which permit me to know things as God sees them, regarding matters of both the interior and the exterior world. (733)


MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY


These thoughts for a day are taken from a daily meditation book based on the Messages of Our Lady of Medjugorje by Father Richard J. Beyer, Ave Maria Press.


AUGUST 15 - THE ASSUMPTION OF OUR LADY


On this feast day in 1985, Our Lady said :


Dear children, today I am blessing you and I wish to tell you that I love you and that I urge you to live my messages. Today I am blessing you with the solemn blessing that the Almighty grants me (Weekly Message August 15, 1985).


And from the prophet Isaiah, almost as if he were speaking of the Assumption :


Arise, shine; for your light has come, and the glory of the Lord has risen upon you. For darkness shall cover the earth, and thick darkness the peoples; but the Lord will arise upon you, and his glory will appear over you. Isaiah 60 :1-2


Reflection:


Today we celebrate the Assumption of Our Lady, body and soul, into heaven. Jesus preserved his mother's body form the corruption and the crowning glory of the human race.


In honoring the Blessed Virgin the Lord honors us all, for she too was human; her glory is reflected upon all her children. Our oneness with Mary is indicative of our awesome and mysteries unity with all people of all ages. Fr. Jozo teaches that we are not « beside » each other, but rather are « inside » one another. Our unity even embraces God himself, who became one with us through the incarnation :


I do not pray for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their word, that all may be one as you Father, are in me, and I in you; I pray that they may be one in us, that the world may believe that you sent me (Jn 17 :20-21).


In the mystery of our oneness we can perceive how our actions and prayer have a ripple effect on the entire Body of Christ; how our virtue as well as our sin has an effect far beyond ourselves.


Today we rejoice in the reflected glory of our Mother's Assumption. May the solemn blessing that she imparts to us on this feast bring us to a new awareness of our sacred communion with God and with one another.


Application :


As a gift to Our Lady today, offer her your rosary for her special intentions.


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 14 - DO WORKS OF MERCY


"Nothing was conferred on the apostles apart from Peter, but several things were conferred upon Peter apart from the apostles." Pope Leo XIII, Satis Cognitum


Jesus Christ, pierce my soul with your love so that I may always long for you alone, who are the bread of angels and the fulfillment of the soul's deepest desires. May my heart always hunger for you, so that my soul may be filled with the sweetness of your presence."


St. Maximilian Mary Kolbe Feast Day: August 14, 2006


(1894-1941)


"I don't know what's going to become of you!" How many parents have said that? Maximilian Mary Kolbe's reaction was, "I prayed very hard to Our Lady to tell me what would happen to me. She appeared, holding in her hands two crowns, one white, one red. She asked if I would like to have them—one was for purity, the other for martyrdom. I said, `I choose both.' She smiled and disappeared." After that he was not the same.


He entered the minor seminary of the Conventual Franciscans in Lvív (then Poland, now Ukraine), near his birthplace, and at 16 became a novice. Though he later achieved doctorates in philosophy and theology, he was deeply interested in science, even drawing plans for rocket ships.


Ordained at 24, he saw religious indifference as the deadliest poison of the day. His mission was to combat it. He had already founded the Militia of the Immaculata, whose aim was to fight evil with the witness of the good life, prayer, work and suffering. He dreamed of and then founded Knight of the Immaculata,, a religious magazine under Mary's protection to preach the Good News to all nations.


For the work of publication he established a "City of the Immaculata"—Niepokalanow—which housed 700 of his Franciscan brothers. He later founded one in Nagasaki, Japan. Both the Militia and the magazine ultimately reached the one-million mark in members and subscribers. His love of God was daily filtered through devotion to Mary.


In 1939 the Nazi panzers overran Poland with deadly speed. Niepokalanow was severely bombed. Kolbe and his friars were arrested, then released in less than three months, on the feast of the Immaculate Conception.


In 1941 he was arrested again. The Nazis' purpose was to liquidate the select ones, the leaders. The end came quickly, in Auschwitz three months later, after terrible beatings and humiliations.


A prisoner had escaped. The commandant announced that 10 men would die. He relished walking along the ranks. "This one. That one." As they were being marched away to the starvation bunkers, Number 16670 dared to step from the line.


"I would like to take that man's place. He has a wife and children." "Who are you?" "A priest." No name, no mention of fame. Silence. The commandant, dumbfounded, perhaps with a fleeting thought of history, kicked Sergeant Francis Gajowniczek out of line and ordered Father Kolbe to go with the nine.


In the "block of death" they were ordered to strip naked and the slow starvation began in darkness. But there was no screaming—the prisoners sang. By the eve of the Assumption four were left alive. The jailer came to finish Kolbe off as he sat in a corner praying. He lifted his fleshless arm to receive the bite of the hypodermic needle. It was filled with carbolic acid. They burned his body with all the others. He was beatified in 1971 and canonized in 1982.


Comment:


Father Kolbe's death was not a sudden, last-minute act of heroism. His whole life had been a preparation. His holiness was a limitless, passionate desire to convert the whole world to God. And his beloved Immaculata was his inspiration.


Quote:


"Courage, my sons. Don't you see that we are leaving on a mission? They pay our fare in the bargain. What a piece of good luck! The thing to do now is to pray well in order to win as many souls as possible. Let us, then, tell the Blessed Virgin that we are content, and that she can do with us anything she wishes" (Maximilian Mary Kolbe, when first arrested).

 


Mother Teresa - The fullness of our heart is expressed in our eyes, in our touch, in what we write, in what we say, in the way we walk, the way we receive, the way we need. That is the fullness of our heart expressing itself in many different ways. Listen in silence, because if your heart is full of other things you cannot hear the voice of God


Padre Pio - The Lord allows us to discover who we are a little at a time. In fact, it is inconceivable to me how anyone with intelligence and a conscience can become proud (GB,57).


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Embracing the etimology of kindness


"The word 'kindness' is derived from kindred or kin, and therefore implies an affection which we bear naturally to those who are our flesh and blood. The original and archetypal kindness is that of a parent for a child and a child for a parent, an idea which is preserved in the German language where Kind means 'child.' Gradually the word gained in extension until it embraced anyone whom we are to treat as a relative. Unkindness is therefore unnaturalness."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - Once, when my confessor told me to say "Glory be to the Father" as my penance, it took me a very long time; and I began many times, but did not finish, because my spirit became united with God, and I could not stick to the prayer. Quite frequently, I am unwittingly enveloped by God's omnipotence and become entirely plunged in Him through love, and then I do not know what is going on around me.


When I told my confessor that this short prayer often takes very much of my time and that sometimes I cannot even finish it, he told me to say it right away, there, at the confessional. However, my spirit became immersed in God and, in spite of my efforts, I could not think as I wished.


And so the confessor said, "Please repeat after me." I repeated every word, but while I was pronouncing each word, my spirit would be steeped in the Person I was naming. (577)


MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY


These thoughts for a day are taken from a daily meditation book based on the Messages of Our Lady of Medjugorje by Father Richard J. Beyer, Ave Maria Press.


AUGUST 14 - DO WORKS OF MERCY


The Virgin calls us to good works today:


Dear children, today I invite you to do works of mercy out of love for me and your brothers and sisters. May all that you do for others to done with great joy and humility before God, I am with you and day after day I offer your sacrifices and prayers to God for the salvation of the world (Monthly Message November 25, 1990).


In Matthew's gospel, Jesus revels how we will be judged:


Then the king will say to those at right hand, "Come, you that are blessed by my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world; for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me, I was naked and you gave me clothing. I was sick and you took care of me, I was in prison and you visited me"(Mt 25:34-36).


Reflection:


These from the Second Vatican Council ring with the same urgency as those in today's gospel.


Since there are so many people in this world afflicted with hunger, this sacred Council urges all, both individuals and governments, to remember the saying of the Fathers: "Feed the man dying of hunger, because if you have not fed him, you have killed him."


To be our brother's keeper is not optional the Christian, but a mandate from Christian, but a mandate from Christ. We are further challenged by Pope Paul VI in his in his encyclical, The Progress of Peoples:


Am I really doing all I can to help the poor and hungry? Am I prepared to pay more taxes in order that the government can do more for development? Am I prepared to pay more in the shops for goods imported from abroad so that the people who produce these goods are paid a decent wage?


Application:


This week, make an extra effort to help those in need, either through personal service or material support.


Also, check your parish bulletin and diocesan newspaper for opportunities to help with service projects or social justice activities that need volunteer assistance


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 13 - THERE ARE SOULS IN PURGATORY

 


Bl. Kateri Tekakwitha, Virgin, North America (1656-1680)?Feast, July 14 Lily of the Eucharist and Lily of the Mohawks. Born in Auriesville, NY, Bl. Kateri awoke early every morning to journey through the woods to the Chapel to visit and receive Jesus in the Holy Eucharist.


She waited outside, even in the bitter cold of winter, until the chapel opened. A consecrated virgin, Bl. Kateri prayed, "I offer my soul to Christ the Lord in the Blessed Sacrament." She devoted her life to prayer, penance and the care of the sick and elderly. Her litany reads: "Kateri, who loved Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament, pray for us."

 


Mother Teresa - And this listening and this speaking is what prayer is meant to be: oneness with God, oneness with Jesus.


Meditations by Padre Pio - Always be faithful to God in observing the promises you made Him, and pay no attention to the mocking of the foolish. Know that the Saints were always mocked by the world and the worldly, but even so they placed the world and its maxims under their feet. May 31 The field of battle between God and Satan is the human soul. This is where it takes place every moment of our lives.


The soul must give free access to our Lord and be completely fortified by Him with every kind of weapon; His light must illuminate it to fight the darkness of error; he must put on Jesus Christ, His truth and justice, the shield of faith, the word of God to overcome such powerful enemies. To put on Jesus Christ we must die to ourselves.


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Strange metamorphosis as strangers behind the wheel!


"Many people who are very kind in their own homes and offices can become very unkind and selfish once they get behind the steering wheel of an automobile. This is probably due to the fact that in their own home they are known; in the automobile they have the advantage of anonymity and hence can be almost brutal without the fear of discovery. To be kind out of fear of others thinking we are unkind is not real kindness, but rather a disguised form of egotism."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - O Holy Trinity, Eternal God, my spirit is drowned in Your beauty. The ages are as nothing in Your sight. You are always the same. Oh, how great is Your majesty. Jesus, why do You conceal Your majesty, why have You left Your heavenly throne and dwelt among us? The Lord answered me, My daughter, love has brought Me here, and love keeps Me here.


My daughter, if you knew what great merit and reward is earned by one act of pure love for Me, you would die of joy. I am saying this that you may constantly unite yourself with Me through love, for this is the goal of the life of your soul. This act is an act of the will. Know that a pure soul is humble. When you lower and empty yourself before My majesty, I then pursue you with My graces and make use of My omnipotence to exalt you. (576)

These thoughts for a day are taken from a daily meditation book based on the Messages of Our Lady of Medjugorje by Father Richard J. Beyer, Ave Maria Press.


AUGUST 13 - THERE ARE SOULS IN PURGATORY


To the visionary Mirjana, regarding purgatory:


There are souls in purgatory who pray ardently to God, but for whom no relative or friend prays on earth. But God allows them to benefit from the prayers of other people (First Years January 10, 1983).


And in Psalm 73, the author expresses confidence in God, both now and in the hereafter:


Nevertheless I am continually with you;


You hold my right hand.


You guide me with your counsel,


And afterward you will receive me with honor.


Whom have I in heaven but you?


And there is nothing on earth that I desire other than you.


My flesh and my heart may fail,


But God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.


Psalm 73:23-26


Reflection:


Through the dogma of the communion of saints, the church teaches that the living can actively help those who have died through prayer, sacrifice, and especially the Mass," the greatest prayer, "as Mary says elsewhere.


It is common practice to arrange for Masses to be offered for loved ones, often on the anniversary of their death, but any time is appropriate. Your Parish secretary or priest can assist you in this; Mass intentions are normally announced in the church bulletin, unless you wish otherwise ( it is customary, through not required, to give an offering).


Application:


Today, pray for the souls in purgatory, especially the forgotten dead.


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 12 - PREPARE YOURSELVES IN PRAYER


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 12 - PREPARE YOURSELVES IN PRAYER

 


"No more than one visit to the Blessed Sacrament is sometimes necessary to change immediately the dispositions of a heart and to cause the sweetest repose and full contentment to succeed the greatest trouble and sorrow. Many have approached the Blessed Sacrament languishing and overwhelmed with grief, and have returned replenished with strength, courage, and even alacrity and joy" (Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen).


Mother Teresa - God speaks in the silence of the heart, and we listen. And then we speak to God from the fullness of our heart, and God listens.


Meditations by Padre Pio - May the Heart of Jesus be the goal of all your inspirations. (ASN, 44)


- Archbishop Fulton Sheen -


Speak up for virtue, clamp down on vice!


"The greatest responsibility falls on religious leaders whose message ought to be the message many want from politicians - the clarion call to restraint on evil influences and the showing forth of altruism and love of God."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - Jesus, when You come to me in Holy Communion, You Who together with the Father and the Holy Spirit have deigned to dwell in the little heaven of my heart, I try to keep You company throughout the day, I do not leave You alone for even a moment. Although I am in the company of other people or with our wards, my heart is always united to Him. When I am asleep I offer Him every beat of my heart; when I awaken I immerse myself in Him without saying a word.


When I awaken I adore the Holy Trinity for a short while and thank God for having deigned to give me yet another day, that the mystery of the incarnation of His Son may once more be repeated in me, and that once again His sorrowful Passion may unfold before my eyes. I then try to make it easier for Jesus to pass through me to other souls. I go everywhere with Jesus; His presence accompanies me everywhere. (486)


When I entered the chapel, once again the majesty of God overwhelmed me. I felt that I was immersed in God, totally immersed in Him and penetrated by Him, being aware of how much the heavenly Father loves us. Oh, what great happiness fills my heart from knowing God and the divine life! It is my desire to share this happiness with all people. I cannot keep this happiness locked in my own heart alone, for His flames burn me and cause my bosom and my entrails to burst asunder.


I desire to go throughout the whole world and speak to souls about the great mercy of God. Priests, help me in this; use the strongest words [at your disposal] to proclaim His mercy, for every word falls short of how merciful He really is. (491)


MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY

 


AUGUST 12 - PREPARE YOURSELVES IN PRAYER


On this day in 1988, in anticipation of the Assumption, Our Lady gave the following message to Ivan's prayer group:


Dear children, your Mother asks you to pray as much as you can during these two days. Prepare yourselves in prayer for the feast to come. Dear children, I would like to tell you to bring peace to other during these days. Encourage others to change. You cannot, dear children, give peace if you, yourselves, are not at inner peace. Tonight I give you peace. Give peace to others ! Dear children, be a light that shines.


I ask you pray the Glorious Mysteries when you go back to your homes tonight. Pray them in front of the cross (Visionary Prayer Group Message December 12, 1988).


The peace of prayer often comes in times of quiet and solitude. From Psalm 131:


O Lord, my heart is not lifted up, my eyes are not raised too high;


I do not occupy myself with things too great and too marvelous for me.


But I have calmed and quieted my soul, like a weaned child with its mother; my soul is like the weaned child that is with me. Psalm 131:1-2


Reflection:


As the Madonna says today, prayer is the means to great love and peace. But if often requires solitude and quiet so that the tranquil presence of God's Spirit can be felt. From a poem by James Dillet Freeman:


Prayer is a state of being, like snowfall At night. As in the silence of yourself your pray, All thing particular, familiar, small Or large, dissolve and slowly melt away. Only the white perfection of your prayer Is there, enveloping all things, until The oneness of the One is everywhere. Nothing remains the same only the still, Only the peace of being, not so much Filling space as obliterating space, An emptiness and allness, like the touch Of snowfall in the night upon your face. But when your prayer ends and you rise and go, Your world shines new around you, like new snow.


Application:


Today, as the Virgin asks, begin preparing for the Assumption through quiet time in prayer; seek a place of solitude and rest in God's peace.

 


SHORT POWERFUL PRAYER THROUGH ST. JOSEPH


"Glorious St. Joseph, tenderhearted father, faithful guardian of Jesus, chaste spouse of the Mother of God, I ask you to join me in praising God the Father through His Divine Son who died on the cross and rose again to give us sinners new life. Through the Holy Name of Jesus, pray with me that we may obtain from the eternal Father the favor we ask. (here state your intention)."


Say this prayer for nine consecutive days.


Fear not! God is your shelter (the 23rd Psalm and the Lord’s Prayer. God never fails). Don’t fail him. Call on Jesus. Jesus on the mainline, tell him what you want!

Prayer to the Blessed Virgin Mary Protectress of Africa


Holy Mary, Mother of God, Protectress of Africa, you have given to the world the true Light, Jesus Christ. Through your obedience to the Father and the grace of the Holy Spirit, you have given us the source of our reconciliation and our justice, Jesus Christ, our peace and our joy.


Mother of Tenderness and Wisdom, show us Jesus, your Son and the Son of God. Guide our path of conversion, so that Jesus might shine his glory on us in every aspect of our personal, familial and social lives.


Mother, full of Mercy and Justice, through your docility to the Spirit, the Counselor, obtain for us the grace to be witnesses of the Risen Lord, so that we will increasingly become the salt of the earth and the light of the world.


Mother of Perpetual Help, we entrust to your maternal intercession the preparation and fruits of the Second Special Assembly for Africa. Queen of Peace, pray for us! Our Lady of Africa, pray for us!



BLACK SAINTS OF THE DAY

 

Black Saints of the day—From the Black Saints reference book (James Wesly Smith), 456 pages, paperback, 1000 lines of Black and African Saints in the Latin Rite, Coptic and Orthodox branches of the Mystical Body of Christ (combined Christianity) to year 599 A.D. Order quickly from www.booklocker.com/books/3088.html, from BarnesandNobles.com, Ingram Book Group internationally, Amazon, wherever online books are sold.




Cyprian, Bishop of Carthage, My given name is Thasius Cyprianus. I was the Bishop of Carthage. I saw the sunrise of my life in Africa about the year of Our Lord, 200 A.D. in that city in Africa. All my life and work occurred there. Known as the Priest Martyr, I was the son of a rich senator. He was pagan.


I matriculated quickly in an excellent secular education. Then attended the school of Carthage. I became an orator and rhetoric and philosophy instructor. Often I appeared at court defending townsfolk.


I taught rhetoric oratory before I converted to the Christian one holy Catholic and Apostolic faith. When converting, I assiduously studied Scripture, and my mentor, Tertullians writings.


I spent my parents’ wealth, as well as the proceeds from banquets work. I continually questioned what truth was. Christianity gained my curiosity. I studied the writings of the African, Tertullian, the Presbyter (Elder), (born around 160 A.D.).


Later, I wrote my habits made it appear impossible for me to reach the revival promised by Yeshua, Jesus, and my Savior. Cecilius the Presbyter (Elder), (my spiritual mentor), helped me from my confusion.


When I reached 46 years of age, I became a Christian catechumen. Prior to my baptism, I gave my property to the poor. I moved to Cecilius’ house. Thus graced by God, I wrote my friend Donatus, "When the surge of regeneration cleansed my former life impurity, a light steady and bright, shone from Heaven in my heart."


I was born again, invigorated by the Holy Spirit. My doubt was removed. God revealed to me mysteries. He made darkness, light. I learned that my former living in the flesh for sin belonged to the earthly. Now I began divine living by the Holy Spirit. "In God and from God is all our strength. From Him is our might. Through Him we who live on earth receive the hint of a condition of future bliss.”


The year following my baptism, I was ordained a priest. When Bishop Donatus of Carthage died, the faithful unanimously chose me as bishop in about the year 248 A.D.. I said, "Unconditionally, yes,” complying with my mentor's request. I was ordained bishop of Carthage.


Around the year in 248 A.D. church authorities elevated to the rank of bishop of Carthage. It was the time of the reign of terror in the persecutions of Roman Emperor Decius.


The Church’s welfare proved my first concern, along with the concomitant ridding of vices in the clergy and flock. Hopefully, my life caused the observing faithful a desire to imitate my God-given piety, humility, and wisdom with which God graced me. I became known beyond my diocese. Bishops from other areas sought my counsel. But persecution by the emperor Decius 249 A.D. to 251 A.D. revealed to me in a dream, forced me to hide. My life was necessary to my flock. I conducted my life to the strengthening faith and courage among my persecuted.


Prior to my leaving, I distributed the church treasury among all the clergy to help to the poor. I later sent additional funds. Through my letters (called epistles) to Presbyter (Elder)s, confessors and martyrs, I kept constant touch with Carthaginian Christians.


Some in my flock offered the Roman required sacricies to the false Roman gods. Some congregants said they did, when they did not. I was called to mediate he controversy of allowing such apostates back into the Mystical Body of Christ. Church hierarchy required they do penance before readmittance to the Church. Because I refused to sacrifice to the false gods.


Weakened by torture, some faithful souls offered sacrifice to pagan gods. Later, these lapsed Christians appealed to confessors for a letter of reconciliation. This intercession certificate accepted the lapsed back to the Church. I wrote all Carthaginian Christians a general communication regarding this important matter.


I said that those lapsed during a time of persecution might be re- admitted to the Church only after penance and with the local bishop’s permission. But I cautioned that Bishops must investigate the situation under which the lapse happened. Examination of the lapsed proved necessary to learn their sincere contrition. For some of the fallen wanted immediate Church re-admittance. This stirred community turmoil. I asked counsel and opinions of other diocese bishops. All approved my rules.


During my absence, I delegated authority to four priest examiners of persons preparing for ordination to the priesthood and the diaconate. But there was mischief. Two influential persons resisted Felicissimus, and the Presbyter (Elder), Novatus. I excommunicated Felicissimus with his six accomplices.


My letter to the African Church Carthage, cautioned all not to split themselves from Church unity. I told them to wait my return. I counseled them to obey the lawful commands of the administering bishop in my absence.


Most Carthaginian Christians remained faithful. A Local Council ended Felicissimus defiance when I returned in 251 A.D.


That enclave judged the reception of the lapsed back into the Church after a church penance. It further upheld the Felicissimus’ excommunication.


A new schism (break in the Church unity) arose through the auspices of the Roman Presbyter (Elder), Novatian. Novatus, a former Felicissimus associate, and Carthaginian Presbyter (Elder), joined the movement.


Novatian taught that if Christians repented of their sin, the lapsed Christians during time of persecution could not be re-admitted.


Both Novatian and Novatus convinced three Italian bishops during the tenure of the lawful Roman bishop Celerinus to place another bishop on the Roman cathedra. At first, I wrote a series of circular letters to the African bishops condemning these wrongs. Later, I composed an entire tome, "On the Unity of the Church.”


Just as the attenuation of discord in the Carthage church began, a plague erupted. Hundreds died in Carthage. Folks abandoned the sick with no help. The dead were left unburied. God graced me by my example, and fortitude, to personally tend the sick and bury not only Christian, but also pagan dead as well.


Drought and famine followed, and those calamities by the barbarian Numidians. These enslaved many of the residents.


We petitioned wealthy Carthaginians to develop support methods to feed the starving and ransom captives. On top of that, Emperor Valerian (253 A.D. to 259 A.D.) ordered Christian persecutions anew again.


Paternus, the Carthaginian proconsul, ordered the faithful to sacrifice to idols. I refused. I also remained silent as to the names and residences of the Presbyter (Elder)s of the Carthage Church.


I was sent to Corubisum. Deacon Pontus voluntarily followed me into exile. After arriving, I dreamed/envisioned a quick martyr's end. I wrote letters and books. But my martyrdom at Carthage caused me to return.


However, the court set me free until the next year. During that time, Carthaginian Christians bade me farewell and asked to receive my blessing.


In a later trial, I again refused to idol sacrifice to idols. The court sentenced me to beheading. "Thanks be to God!” I said.


All the Christians present said in unified voice, “We want to die with him!" At the execution, I blessed all present. I gave 25 gold coins to the executioner. I covered my eyes. I myself had my hands bound the Presbyter (Elder), and archdeacon standing nearby, then lowered my head.


Christians crying placed their shawls and veils by me to gather my blood. I was martyred 258 A.D. martyred in 258 A.D..


At night, the faithful took by body and buried me in the private crypt of the procurator, Macrovius Candidianus. Some 500 years later, my holy relics were transferred to France, during the reign of Charlemagne, King Charles the Great. Hieromartyr, Aug. 31

"I embrace you all" Dear Friends,


To live and Die for Christ


Welcome anyone who is weak in faith, but not for disputes over opinions. One person believes that one may eat anything, while the weak person eats only vegetables. The one who eats must not despise the one who abstains, and the one who abstains must not pass judgment on the one who eats; for God has welcomed him.


Who are you to pass judgment on someone else's servant? Before his own master he stands or falls. And he will be upheld, for the Lord is able to make him stand. For one person considers one day more important than another, while another person considers all days alike. Let everyone be fully persuaded in his own mind. Whoever observes the day, observes it for the Lord. Also whoever eats, eats for the Lord, since he gives thanks to God; while whoever abstains, abstains for the Lord and gives thanks to God. None of us lives for oneself, and no one dies for oneself.


For if we live, we live for the Lord, and if we die, we die for the Lord; so then, whether we live or die, we are the Lord's. For this is why Christ died and came to life, that he might be Lord of both the dead and the living. Why then do you judge your brother? Or you, why do you look down on your brother? For we shall all stand before the judgment seat of God; for it is written: "As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bend before me, and every tongue shall give praise to God." So then each of us shall give an account of himself to God. Romans 14:1-12


Below is the message of Our Lord and Savior given to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words,


"Accept every person even those who are weak in faith. They might have strange opinions and believe that only vegetables are good for him or her. They might prefer Friday instead of Monday or store food because they think the end of the world is near. You should not take that into account for they are only opinions. What is important is to believe in Me, their Savior, and follow what I have taught them.


Do not judge your brother or sister. Accept each person with love and be kind to each one. Do not judge and you will not be judged. Judgment brings condemnation upon you because you do not know the person interiorly. Only God knows the person completely and so He alone can judge. Live, My dear friends, only for Me. You belong to Me so in everything you do, do it for Me and you will be rewarded.


So, whether you live or die, remember you belong to Me. Put your faith into practice every day by your prayers, your good work and by going to Mass often and receiving Me in the Eucharist as often as possible. Do not follow the ways of the world because it rejects Me. Seek your Savior every day and I will help you. I embrace you all."


Father Melvin

"Choose wisely"


Dear Friends,


Love fulfills the Law and Awareness of the End of Time


Owe nothing to anyone, except to love one another; for the one who loves another has fulfilled the law. The commandments, "You shall not commit adultery; you shall not kill; you shall not steal; you shall not covet," and whatever other commandment there may be, are summed up in this saying, namely, "You shall love your neighbour as yourself." Love does no evil to the neighbour; hence, love is the fulfillment of the law.


And do this because you know the time; it is the hour now for you to awake from sleep. For our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed; the night is advanced, the day is at hand. Let us then throw off the works of darkness and put on the armour of light; let us conduct ourselves properly as in the day, not in orgies and drunkenness, not in promiscuity and licentiousness, not in rivalry and jealousy. But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the desires of the flesh. Romans 13:8-14


Here is a message from Our Lord and God given to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words,


"It was Our Heavenly Father who gave the Ten Commandments to Moses on Mount Sinai and the Jews had to agree to follow the commandments so that the Old Covenant could be made between the Father and the Jewish people in the desert. I handed these same commandments to you and they are part of the New Covenant that I made in your name on the cross.


You cannot love Me if you do not follow the commandments. This is the proof that you love Me. My love for you is everlasting and I desire that you love Me in return.


You know that the end of time is approaching so it is time for you to wake up and follow Me. I will come to judge the living and the dead. Those who have followed Me will come with Me to heaven to everlasting bliss. However, those who refused to follow Me will go down to hell to everlasting suffering.


It is now time for you to choose the right path so you can be saved. Stop your sinful ways now and come into the light. I am the light that came into the world and I am calling you to come out of the darkness of sin into the marvelous light of the day of your Lord. Choose wisely and you will be rewarded."


Father Melvin


Message to Carol Ameche August 2, 2009


External locution through Carol at Ameche Prayer Group, August 2, 2009


"My dearest children, I am your God and Father. Thank you for the honor, the praise, the love in your prayers to Me this day. Thank you for honoring My special day, and I know that you will continue this throughout this month. Thank you for dedicating yourselves in a new and deeper way with your consecration to Me. Thank you, My children, for you.


Of course you are blessed beyond your understanding, beyond your ability to feel the magnitude of the blessing I pour out upon you now. It is very close, My children, to difficult events in the world, to change. Even though you have heard words of explanation, it will be difficult to live through the changes ahead of you, or even imagine completely enough what this will be like.


I invite you now to unite yourself more totally to My perfect will. It is only this and your adoration of My Son, your openness to Our Spirit that will see you through these times. Do not fear, My children. Just prepare. Just be joyful as I have said for years, My children. Be at peace, My dear ones. Be at peace in the unity we share in the Trinity and with the Holy Mother.


Just thinking about those words would help you to meditate upon the degree of giftedness you are being given. Just allowing silence to be your environment for a time every day will strengthen you like nothing else, and give you the trust that you have been praying for also for so many years; but you feel the change within yourselves. You feel the amount of trust you have received, have accepted.


What a help this is to you! What a balm to jangled nerves, to anticipation, to the very human task that you have chosen to figure out My plans and the timetable of Heaven! Perhaps you will give that up even more; because it has become exhausting to you, and it was never meant to be that you would have all of the answers. Else how could you practice Faith?


I love you so much, My children. Of course, you are My dear ones. I am so grateful for you, more and more; and I repeat this again, We are one. Unity with the Trinity is your buckler and shield, is your protection against Satan himself and all of his followers. The battle rages, My children. The battle is won. The victory is ours. Welcome to a new time of experiencing, of making progress in victory and in winning, My children. Amen. I say again, 'To arms'." Carol Ameche


Please mark Sept 26th on your calendar to join our group: Fr. Rene Gagnon, Carol Ameche, Collette Coloumbe, Sr. Yvette Barriauet for a glorious trip to the Holy Land where we will pray for the safety of each Shrine to the presence of Jesus' Life and Words, when He lived on the earth.


Jesus has said to my heart, "No matter what you hear as a reason for war in these areas, the real reason is the plans of the enemies of My Church to destroy any mention or sign of My Life when I was born as the Infant King and long awaited Messiah to the world, on their way to destroy Christianity from the earth." Please take advantage of this opportunity to beg for mercy on these Shrines and remembrances of Jesus' living and dying to obtain our salvation. Join other of Mary's warriors to fight the battle against the evil one in defense of our Christian heritage.


It's a 16 day adventure of prayer (once in a lifetime trip) and a walk in the very footsteps of Jesus and His Apostles. Call Mary's Pilgrims now @1-800-847-6279 or see my web for details: www.carolameche.org or For info and reservation info. please call Tom or Ann @757-826-9221


August 7, 2009 - Ivan's Apparition at the Blue Cross at 10:00 p.m.


Though thousands of youth have left Medjugorje to return to their homes around the world over the last two days, there are still thousands of pilgrims in Medjugorje and many of them were present for Ivan’s apparition tonight at the Blue Cross.


It is always a beautiful sight to arrive at the foot of Apparition Mountain and see every space taken with pilgrims sitting on rough hewn rocks, while more and more pilgrims arrive navigating through the crowds to find their own place among the multitudes who have come to be with their Mother. All languages, all ages, all walks of life, are present.


The sunset in Medjugorje, this evening, August 7, 2009. It is a joy for those around the world to view the sunset in Medjugorje the same day it happened, and here at the Blue Cross just a few hours before the Queen of Heaven appeared. Just five days earlier, Our Lady appeared at this same spot to Mirjana, in which Mirjana saw the sun in the apparition, the first time this had ever happened to Mirjana in 28 years of apparitions.


Lights continually flashed onto the Blue Cross as pilgrims from all around the area searched out the cross to determine where Our Lady would be appearing, and how close in proximity they were to this location. At 9:30 p.m., after a period of singing, the Rosary was prayed, leading up to the 10:00 p.m. apparition.


The moon was at its fullest the night of Our Lady’s birthday, August 5th, and though now it is diminishing slowly, it was still full and bright enough to light up the village of Medjugorje making it easy for pilgrims to follow along the paths through the fields. For those who have been present at Ivan’s prayer group apparitions who have walked these paths instead of going on the roads or going home in cars, they know how special it was to walk these paths tonight in the moonlight.


Following is Ivan’s description of the apparition that took place tonight, August 7, 2009:


Most important from the meeting with Our Lady tonight is that Our Lady came joyful and happy and as always greeted all of us with Her motherly greeting, Praised be Jesus, my dear children. Then, with hands extended, She prayed over us and especially for the sick present. She then blessed us all with Her motherly blessing and then blessed all the articles brought for blessing.


Afterwards, Our Lady especially prayed tonight for vocations in the Church and for priests. I then recommended all of you, your needs and your families and then I prayed an Our Father and a Glory Be with Our Lady. Then a brief conversation followed. I spoke with Her and She with me. Then Our Lady left, in prayer, in an illuminated Sign of the Cross with a greeting: Go in peace, my dear children.


The crowds are thick around the Blue Cross on Apparition Mountain in Medjugorje even though it is still three hours before Our Lady will appear. Ivan said today in a talk to pilgrims that when Our Lady comes She brings part of Heaven to us. For this reason the visionaries have a difficult time letting go of Her after every apparition. Not just the visionaries, but all those who love of Our Lady, who count themselves blessed to be one of Her children.


Some of the faces that were present at tonight’s August 7, 2009 apparition, as they leave the apparition by the thousands. These are the faces that Our Lady called on two occasions tonight, My dear children. It’ a beautiful thing to be under the mantle of Our Lady in an apparition in Medjugorje and be claimed as one of Our Lady’s dear children.


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 12 - PREPARE YOURSELVES IN PRAYER



"No more than one visit to the Blessed Sacrament is sometimes necessary to change immediately the dispositions of a heart and to cause the sweetest repose and full contentment to succeed the greatest trouble and sorrow. Many have approached the Blessed Sacrament languishing and overwhelmed with grief, and have returned replenished with strength, courage, and even alacrity and joy" (Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen).


Mother Teresa - God speaks in the silence of the heart, and we listen. And then we speak to God from the fullness of our heart, and God listens.


Meditations by Padre Pio - May the Heart of Jesus be the goal of all your inspirations. (ASN, 44)


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Speak up for virtue, clamp down on vice!


"The greatest responsibility falls on religious leaders whose message ought to be the message many want from politicians - the clarion call to restraint on evil influences and the showing forth of altruism and love of God."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - Jesus, when You come to me in Holy Communion, You Who together with the Father and the Holy Spirit have deigned to dwell in the little heaven of my heart, I try to keep You company throughout the day, I do not leave You alone for even a moment. Although I am in the company of other people or with our wards, my heart is always united to Him. When I am asleep I offer Him every beat of my heart; when I awaken I immerse myself in Him without saying a word.


When I awaken I adore the Holy Trinity for a short while and thank God for having deigned to give me yet another day, that the mystery of the incarnation of His Son may once more be repeated in me, and that once again His sorrowful Passion may unfold before my eyes. I then try to make it easier for Jesus to pass through me to other souls. I go everywhere with Jesus; His presence accompanies me everywhere. (486)


When I entered the chapel, once again the majesty of God overwhelmed me. I felt that I was immersed in God, totally immersed in Him and penetrated by Him, being aware of how much the heavenly Father loves us. Oh, what great happiness fills my heart from knowing God and the divine life! It is my desire to share this happiness with all people.


I cannot keep this happiness locked in my own heart alone, for His flames burn me and cause my bosom and my entrails to burst asunder. I desire to go throughout the whole world and speak to souls about the great mercy of God. Priests, help me in this; use the strongest words [at your disposal] to proclaim His mercy, for every word falls short of how merciful He really is. (491)


MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY



AUGUST 12 - PREPARE YOURSELVES IN PRAYER


On this day in 1988, in anticipation of the Assumption, Our Lady gave the following message to Ivan's prayer group:


Dear children, your Mother asks you to pray as much as you can during these two days. Prepare yourselves in prayer for the feast to come. Dear children, I would like to tell you to bring peace to other during these days. Encourage others to change. You cannot, dear children, give peace if you, yourselves, are not at inner peace. Tonight I give you peace. Give peace to others ! Dear children, be a light that shines.


I ask you pray the Glorious Mysteries when you go back to your homes tonight. Pray them in front of the cross (Visionary Prayer Group Message December 12, 1988).


The peace of prayer often comes in times of quiet and solitude. From Psalm 131:


O Lord, my heart is not lifted up, my eyes are not raised too high;


I do not occupy myself with things too great and too marvelous for me.


But I have calmed and quieted my soul, like a weaned child with its mother; my soul is like the weaned child that is with me. Psalm 131:1-2


Reflection:


As the Madonna says today, prayer is the means to great love and peace. But if often requires solitude and quiet so that the tranquil presence of God's Spirit can be felt. From a poem by James Dillet Freeman:


Prayer is a state of being, like snowfall At night. As in the silence of yourself your pray, All thing particular, familiar, small Or large, dissolve and slowly melt away. Only the white perfection of your prayer Is there, enveloping all things, until The oneness of the One is everywhere. Nothing remains the same only the still, Only the peace of being, not so much Filling space as obliterating space, An emptiness and allness, like the touch Of snowfall in the night upon your face. But when your prayer ends and you rise and go, Your world shines new around you, like new snow.


Application:


Today, as the Virgin asks, begin preparing for the Assumption through quiet time in prayer; seek a place of solitude and rest in God's peace.


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 11 - ST. CLARE OF ASSISI



"All the saints of history . . . have been distinguished for the love of Our Lord in the Eucharist and for Mary . . . . So there is no canonized saint to whom I cannot cry out with confidence to obtain for me a great love for Mary so that I may borrow her Immaculate Heart to come closer to the Sacred Heart of Our Lord in the Eucharist" (John Haffert).


Mother Teresa - The fruit of Silence is Prayer.


The fruit of Prayer is Faith.


The fruit of Faith is Love.


The fruit of Love is Service.


The fruit of Service is Peace.



Meditations by Padre Pio - Accept all the suffering and incomprehension that comes from Above. In this way you will perfect and sanctify yourself. (FSP,119)


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Which direction has America taken? You be the judge!


"The latent power of blood and sweat and tears in our American youth will be captured within the next generation by one of the other forces: either by some political crackpot who will turn that desire for sacrifice into something like Nazism, Fascism, or Communism, or by our leaders, political, educational and moral who will first show self-discipline and moral courage in their own lives and thus give an example to others."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - September 29. The Feast of St. Michael the Archangel. I have become interiorly united with God. His presence penetrates me to my very depths and fills me with peace, joy, and amazement. After such moments of prayer, I am filled with strength and an extraordinary courage to suffer and struggle. Nothing terrifies me, even if the whole world should turn against me.


All adversities touch only the surface, but they have no entry to the depths, because God, Who strengthens me, Who fills me, dwells there. All the snares of the enemy are crushed at His footstool. During these moments of union, God sustains me with His might. His might passes on to me and makes me capable of loving Him.


A soul never reaches this state by its own efforts. At the beginning of this interior grace, I was filled with fright, and I started to give in to it; but very quickly, the Lord let me know how much this displeases Him. But it is also He, Himself, who set my fears at rest. (480)


O my God, I am conscious of my mission in the Holy Church. It is my constant endeavor to plead for mercy for the world. I unite myself closely with Jesus and stand before Him as an atoning sacrifice on behalf of the world. God will refuse me nothing when I entreat Him with the voice of His Son. My sacrifice is nothing in itself, but when I join it to the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, it becomes all-powerful and has the power to appease divine wrath. God loves us in His Son; the painful Passion of the Son of God constantly turns aside the wrath of God. (482)



MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY


These thoughts for a day are taken from a daily meditation book based on the Messages of Our Lady of Medjugorje by Father Richard J. Beyer, Ave Maria Press.


AUGUST 11 - ST. CLARE OF ASSISI


The following was given to Vicka one day when she was away from Medjugorje:


I bless you with the benediction of a Mother. Pray everyday and confide yourselves to my son, Jesus. In this way you will understand what God asks of each of you. (Special Message March 21, 1987).


St. Clare discovered in prayer the will of God for her, and this enabled her not only to live a holy life, but one marked by miracles as well From John's gospel:


Very truly, I tell you, the one who believes in me will also do the works that I do and, in fact, will do greater works than these, because I am going to the Father. I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If in my name you ask me for anything, I will do it (Jn 14:12-14).


Reflection:


Next to St. Francis of Assisi, St. Clare (1193-1253) was most responsible for the growth and spread of the Franciscan ideal which changed the face of the church in the 13th century.


Born in Assisi of wealthy parents, Clare heard a sermon by St. Francis when she was a teenager. It affected her to such a degree that she left home to join him and his followers, and to live the life of gospel poverty. Francis gave her the veil when she was 19 years old, and she was shortly joined by her two sisters and, later, her mother. Living at the convent at the church of San Damiano, Francis charged her under obedience to accept the office of abbess, which she then held for nearly 45 years until her death.


Clare's understanding of poverty, embodied in the Rule of Poor Clare Nuns, was designed to bring the individual into intimate union with Christ and away form all earthy attachments. She founded monasteries for her nuns in Italy, France, Germany and Hungary, and was credited with many miracles though out her life, notably the saving of her convent and the town of Assisi from the Saracen invaders.


St. Clare endured an illness for 30 years that confined her to the convent, yet she was known to be a spirited, energetic leader, always loving and kind toward her sisters. She was motivated always by her love of the gospel ideal of simplicity after the example of Christ. She died in 1253 and was canonized just two years later.


Application:


"Pray every day, "the Virgin says, "In this way you will understand what God asks of each of you. "Today, simply pray for this knowledge of God's will, as St. Clare did throughout her life.


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 10- FALSE PROPHETS



"If the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, then we must love Jesus as flesh and blood. Tell me what the phrase 'dwelt among us' can mean more perfectly than His abiding Presence in our tabernacles?" (Fr. Leonard Feeney, M.I.C.M.).



Mother Teresa - Love begins at home. Everything depends on how we love each other. Do not be afraid to love until it hurts, for this is how Jesus loved.


Meditations by Padre Pio - May Jesus be your guide, your support and your life, always and in everything! (ASN, 44).


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Pilgrimage toward the Ecstasy of Love


"Too many husbands and wives expect their partners in marriage to give what only God can give: eternal ecstasy. Yet if any man or woman could do that, he would be God. We are right to want the ecstasy of love; but if we expect to enjoy it through the flesh, which is merely on pilgrimage to God, we prepare ourselves for disappointment.


The first ecstasy of love is not an illusion; but it is only a kind of travel folder, a foretaste, a preview, urging body and soul to start the journey towards eternal joys. If the first ecstasy passes, this change is not an invitation to love another person, but to love in another way - and the other way is Christ's way, the way of Him Who said: 'I am the Way.'"



St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - Oh, how astonished I was, for everything the Father said about union with God and the obstacles to this union I had experienced literally in my soul and heard from Jesus, who speaks to me in the depths of my soul. Perfection consists in this close union with God. (457)


Throughout the whole retreat, I was in uninterrupted communion with Jesus and entered into an intimate relationship with Him with all the might of my heart. (467)


MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY


AUGUST 10 - FALSE PROPHETS


Regarding catastrophic predictions, Our Lady said:


That come from false prophets. They say,"such a day, on such a date, there will be a catastrophe, "I have always said that evil will come if the world does not convert itself. Call the world to conversion. Everything depends on your conversion (Locutionists Jelena & Mirijana December 15,1983).


Jesus also speaks of false prophets in Matthew's gospel:


Jesus answered them,"Beware that no one leads you astray. For many will come in my name, saying, `I am the Messiah!' and they will lead many astray (Mt 24:4-5).


Reflection:


"But not everyone who speaks on the spirit is a prophet, but only if he follows the conduct of the Lord. "This excerpt from the apocryphal Teaching of the Twelve Apostles is another way of putting the old adage, "actions speak louder than words, "or" by their fruit you shall know them."


The gauge of a teacher, prophet, or any Christian lies in his behavior rather than his words. Does he live the spirit of the scriptures ? Does he help others in concrete ways? Do his words and actions promote peace or dissention? Before placing any trust in would-be prophets, preachers, or evangelists, look carefully at their lives.


As Catholics, we are guided by the magisterium, or teaching arm, of the church, which has preserved the body of faith in its essential form since the time of Christ. Indeed, one of the chief responsibilities of the Pope and bishops is to teach and preserve this faith, passed down within the church by each succeeding generation. The Holy Spirit remains with us always, guiding and protecting the church's beliefs and teachings until the advent of the kingdom.


Application:


Today, recite the Apostles' Creed slowly and prayerfully, reflecting on the meaning of each phrase. The visionaries of Medjugorje report that it is the Virgin's favorite prayer.



SHORT POWERFUL PRAYER THROUGH ST. JOSEPH


"Glorious St. Joseph, tenderhearted father, faithful guardian of Jesus, chaste spouse of the Mother of God, I ask you to join me in praising God the Father through His Divine Son who died on the cross and rose again to give us sinners new life. Through the Holy Name of Jesus, pray with me that we may obtain from the eternal Father the favor we ask. (here state your intention)."


Say this prayer for nine consecutive days.


Fear not! God is your shelter (the 23rd Psalm and the Lord’s Prayer. God never fails). Don’t fail him. Call on Jesus. Jesus on the mainline, tell him what you want!

Prayer to the Blessed Virgin Mary Protectress of Africa


Holy Mary, Mother of God, Protectress of Africa, you have given to the world the true Light, Jesus Christ. Through your obedience to the Father and the grace of the Holy Spirit, you have given us the source of our reconciliation and our justice, Jesus Christ, our peace and our joy.


Mother of Tenderness and Wisdom, show us Jesus, your Son and the Son of God. Guide our path of conversion, so that Jesus might shine his glory on us in every aspect of our personal, familial and social lives.


Mother, full of Mercy and Justice, through your docility to the Spirit, the Counselor, obtain for us the grace to be witnesses of the Risen Lord, so that we will increasingly become the salt of the earth and the light of the world.


Mother of Perpetual Help, we entrust to your maternal intercession the preparation and fruits of the Second Special Assembly for Africa. Queen of Peace, pray for us! Our Lady of Africa, pray for us!

Continue to do good"


Dear Friends,


Obedience to Authority


Let every person be subordinate to the higher authorities, for there is no authority except from God, and those that exist have been established by God. Therefore, whoever resists authority opposes what God has appointed, and those who oppose it will bring judgment upon themselves.


For rulers are not a cause of fear to good conduct, but to evil. Do you wish to have no fear of authority? Then do what is good and you will receive approval from it, for it is a servant of God for your good. But if you do evil, be afraid, for it does not bear the sword without purpose; it is the servant of God to inflict wrath on the evildoer. Therefore, it is necessary to be subject not only because of the wrath but also because of conscience. This is why you also pay taxes, for the authorities are ministers of God, devoting themselves to this very thing. Pay to all their dues, taxes to whom taxes are due, toll to whom toll is due, respect to whom respect is due, honor to whom honor is due. Romans 13:1–7

 


Here is the message from Our Lord and Savior given to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him these words,


“All authority belongs to the Father and every person must obey God if he or she is to obtain salvation. The Father has given you the Ten Commandments so that you will know the laws and that you will follow them strictly. You are not to oppose Your Creator who gave you everything and He is still giving you all you need. The commandments will keep you out of everything that is evil and will point you to the good.


There is also human authority, which is especially the authority of the Government of individual nations. This authority comes from the Father and you are called to obey it. If what is asked is opposed to the Ten Commandments or opposed to My teachings, then it is wrong to follow it, but this is rare except in Communist Countries or very secular states. As children have to obey their parents so you too have to obey legitimate authority such as the authority of God and that of the state. Continue to do good and you do not have to fear authority. It is those who do evil that should be afraid. I bless you all.”


Father Melvin


[Fr. Doucette: 289] Sat, Aug 01, 2009: "I love you"

"I love you"


Dear Friends,


The Presentation in the Temple


When the days were completed for their purification according to the law of Moses, they took Jesus up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord, just as it is written in the law of the Lord,Every male that opens the womb shall be consecrated to the Lord, and to offer the sacrifice of “a pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons, in accordance with the dictate in the law of the Lord. Now there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon.


This man was righteous and devout, awaiting the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was with him. It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he should not see death before he had seen the Messiah of the Lord. He came in the Spirit into the temple; and when the parents brought in the child Jesus to perform the custom of the law in regard to him, he took him into his arms and blessed God, saying: Now, Master, you may let your servant go in peace according to your word, for my eyes have seen your salvation, which you prepared in sight of all the peoples, a light of revelation to the Gentiles, and glory for your people Israel.


The child’s father and mother were amazed at what was said about him; and Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother, Behold, this child is destined for the fall and rise of many in Israel, and to be a sign that will be contradicted and you yourself a sword shall pierce so that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed. Luke 2:22–35


Here is a message received from Our Blessed Mother given to Joseph. She spoke to him in these words,


As it is written in the Bible, Joseph and I took the child Jesus to Jerusalem to present Him to the Father. The holy man Simeon was present and he held the child Jesus in his arms and spoke beautifully about Him. At the end he turned to Me and said that I would suffer terribly as a sword would pierce My heart.


This prophecy was fulfilled at the foot of the cross. I suffered immensely at seeing My Son nailed to the cross in horrible pain and blood flowing from His many wounds. I was present when He addressed Me and told Me that I was the Mother of all the people. A sword did pierce My heart when He died hanging on the cross.


Join Me today, My dear children, at the foot of the cross and see what Jesus suffered because of your sins. Repent of all your sins and let Him come into your heart. I am praying for all of you that Jesus may become first in your life. I love you.


Father Melvin

“The River Euphrates Begins to Dry Up, As Predicted


"The sixth angel poured his bowl on the great river Euphra'tes, and its water was dried up, to prepare the way for the kings from the east." (Cf. Rev 16:12)


"And the Pharisees and Sad'ducees came, and to test him they asked him to show them a sisign from heaven. He answered them, "When it is evening, you say, 'It will be fair weather; for the sky is red.' And in the morning, 'It will be stormy today, for the sky is red and threatening.' You know how to interpret the appearance of the sky, but you cannot interpret the signs of the times." (Cf. Mat 16:1-3)

The web site, era-of-peace, together with its mother web site, www.call2holiness.org


have been designed to serve a very unique purpose. As discussed in greater detail on the home page of era-of-peace, it is used in conjunction with its mother site to assist and guide all of God's children through the Great Tribulation of the book of Revelation.


Accordingly, primary emphasis has been given to the accumulation of few archived messages at the era-of-peace web site, as opposed to many individual emailed messages to members. Our intention is to build a relatively small base of messages, to facilitate the painting of the "big" picture as eschatology is realized daily. As new members join, especially during the foretold confusion associated with the Warning, they will see for themselves the foretold events materializing together with supporting evidence.

Open Acts in USA to Treat Christians and Patriots as Terrorists


"And he said, "Take heed that you are not led astray; for many will come in, saying, 'I am he!' and, 'The time is at hand!' Do not go after them. And when you hear of wars and tumults, do not be terrified; for this must first take place, but the end will not be at once."


Then he said to them, "Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom; there will be great earthquakes, and in various places famines and pestilences; and there will be terrors and great signs from heaven. But before all this they will lay their hands on you and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues and prisons, and you will be brought before kings and governors for my name's sake.


This will be a time for you to bear testimony. Settle it therefore in your minds, not to meditate beforehand how to answer; for I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which none of your adversaries will be able to withstand or contradict.


You will be delivered up even by parents and brothers and kinsmen and friends, and some of you they will put to death; you will be hated by all for my name's sake. But not a hair of your head will perish. By your endurance you will gain your lives. "But when you see Jerusalemsurrounded by armies, then know that its desolation has come near.


Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, and let those who are inside the city depart, and let not those who are out in the country enter it; for these are days of vengeance, to fulfill all that is written. Alas for those who are with child and for those who give suck in those days!


For great distress shall be upon the earth and wrath upon this people; they will fall by the edge of the sword, and be led captive among all nations; and Jerusalem will be trodden down by the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled. "And there will be signs in sun and moon and stars, and upon the earth distress of nations in perplexity at the roaring of the sea and the waves, men fainting with fear and with foreboding of what is coming on the world; for the powers of the heavens will be shaken. And then they will see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.


Now when these things begin to take place, look up and raise your heads, because your redemption is drawing near."


And he told them a parable: "Look at the fig tree, and all the trees; as soon as they come out in leaf, you see for yourselves and know that the summer is already near.


So also, when you see these things taking place, you know that the kingdom of God is near. Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away till all has taken place. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will not pass away.


"But take heed to yourselves lest your hearts be weighed down with dissipation and drunkenness and cares of this life, and that day come upon you suddenly like a snare; for it will come upon all who dwell upon the face of the whole earth. But watch at all times, praying that you may have strength to escape all these things that will take place, and to stand before the Son of man." (Cf. Luk 21:8-36)


"Then I saw an angel coming down from heaven, holding in his hand the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain.


And he seized the dragon, that ancient serpent, who is the Devil and Satan, and bound him for a thousand years, and threw him into the pit, and shut it and sealed it over him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years were ended. After that he must be loosed for a little while.


Then I saw thrones, and seated on them were those to whom judgment was committed. Also I saw the souls of those who had been beheaded for their testimony to Jesus and for the word of God, and who had not worshiped the beast or its image and had not received its mark on their foreheads or their hands.


They came to life, and reigned with Christ a thousand years. The rest of the dead did not come to life until the thousand years were ended. This is the first resurrection. Blessed and holy is he who shares in the first resurrection! Over such the second death has no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and they shall reign with him a thousand years. " (Cf. Rev 20:1-6)


John Leary(1)


June 4, 2009:


Jesus said: "My people, just as there are many refuges for the protection of My faithful, so there are hundreds of detention center death camps that are large enough to kill millions of Americans who do not want to go along with the new world order.


The evil ones have red and blue lists to pick up religious and patriotic people before and after a manufactured martial law is declared. I will warn My faithful when this will happen. Some will be martyred, but the remainder will be at My refuges. I will protect your souls from the evil ones, so have no fear."


Jesus said: "My people, those, who are martyred for their faith, will have little pain as they are taken to heaven as saints. It will be difficult to see so many Americans captured because they would not leave their homes or they did not leave soon enough. Foreign troops will be carrying out this killing activity dressed in black clothes.


This is because your American troops would have a hard time killing their own innocent citizens. They have shackled train cars, trucks, and airplanes to deliver prisoners to the death camps. This evil time will be brief before I will come and cast all of these evil people into the fires of hell. I will renew the earth and bring about My Era of Peace."


May 28, 2009:


Jesus said: "My people, I have told you that you will see a time of persecution of My people at the time of tribulation when some of you may be martyred for My Name's sake. You have already heard of several incidents when Guillotines have been brought into the United States.


Even in the Book of Revelation it speaks of the faithful being beheaded. You also have seen beheaded figures in the Mall at Washington, D.C. that signify how the one world people will treat people that do not go along with the one world order. Those, who are beheaded, will become instant saints, while the rest of My faithful will be protected at My refuges."


January 29, 2009:


Jesus said: "My people, many have wondered why it will be necessary to go to My refuges for protection. I have warned you that the one world government will take over all countries, and they will try to force chips in the body on everyone. If you refuse and they capture you at your home, you could be killed at their death camps. By leaving for My refuges before they come to your house, you could avoid capture and live in a rustic community life protected by My angels."


July 2, 2008:


Jesus said: "My people, you remember in World War II when Hitler and the Nazis had a plan to exterminate all of the Jews in Germany and lands that they took by force. The one world people also have a plan to exterminate all of the religious people and patriots when they declare martial law.


I am going to warn My people and My priests when it is time to go to My refuges before these evil ones will come to kill you. If some refuse to go to My refuges, then these people will be carried off on trains to the death camps.


Those, who heed My call, will be protected at My refuges. My faithful will call and warn the priests when to leave, but the priests will die if they refuse to listen. Pray for My faithful and My priests to be ready to flee to My refuges, or those left behind could be martyred for their faith.


Refuse under any circumstances to take microchips in your body, even if people threaten to kill you. These chips in the body will control you by following voices of suggestions in mind control that will make you like robots.


Refuse to worship the Antichrist, and seek out My refuges when you see martial law declared. Have no fear and trust in Me to protect you at My refuges. The evil ones will be cast into hell, as I will bring about My Era of Peace."


April 26, 2007:


Jesus said: "My people, time is growing short for when you will need to prepare in haste to leave for My refuges. I have warned you already to have what you could carry in your backpacks for when you are to leave for My refuges.


In the Old Exodus they left in haste for the desert. In this coming Modern Exodus you will want to leave in haste also so the evil ones will not find you at your homes. Those, who are too late to leave, may be martyred in the detention center death camps for not taking chips in the body and not worshiping the Antichrist. Follow Me and you will have My protection from My angels."

 


End of messages


Much has been prophesized about the forthcoming persecution of the Church during the Great Tribulation. Indeed, we have shared much of it with the group in earlier writings.


We have written about: legislation and proposed legislation surrounding so-called 'hate crimes', detention centers being built, the enactment of the US Patriot Acts I & II, the enactment of the Military Commissions Act, the enactment of the John Warner Defense Act, warrantless wire tapping, electronic monitoring of our homes and workplaces, and more.


The emboldened agents of Satan are beginning to operate ever more in the open now. They are convinced that their plan for world domination can not fail. We can expect overt acts to escalate henceforth.


During April of 2009, the US Department of Homeland Security released an unclassified (but confidential) report entitled: "Rightwing Extremism: Current Economic and Political Climate Fueling Resurgence in Radicalization and Recruitment".


The report was published to all US law enforcement officers advising them to keep it confidential. Such report is a summary of a longer classified report, the details of which remain concealed from the public at this time.


In such report the US Dept. of Homeland Security (compared by many to the Gestapo of the Nazis) classified supporters of the Pro-Life movement, military veterans, and those who support the US Constitution essentially as 'terrorists'. Law enforcement officers were alerted to the danger of such people, and advised of the threat that they pose. We have included brief comments about the report made by Judge Andrew Napolitano below.


A month after the publication of the above mentioned report, US President Obama spoke publicly of his policy of 'Prolonged Detention'. We note that this is an euphemism for the term previously used: 'Prevention Detention' or 'Preventive Incarceration' --- and that it is nothing more than imprisonment without trial. A video of excerpts of his speech on prolonged detention follows.


It did not take the agents of Satan long to clarify the intent of Barak Obama's speech. In June of this year, US Congressman Hastings introduced an amendment to a hate crimes bill moving swiftly through the US Congress which would provide the US Attorney General discretion over who is classified as a terrorist and what groups will be treated as terrorist groups.


This would allow the US Attorney General to unilaterally classify Americans who are pro-life, pro-gun, and anti-big government as domestic terrorists. Further, he introduced a bill calling for the construction of [additional] detention centers, referred to euphemistically as 'national emergency centers'. Excerpts of an article by Jim Kouri and links to the proposed legislation follow.


"This time is our time."(2).


We have nothing to fear if we have heeded the directives of Our Lord. By now all should have consecrated their homes specifically as directed; all should have extra food and water (as space and money allow) stored; all should have their back packs and bicycles ready. The refuges exist. It is important that all leave promptly when summoned.

SHORT POWERFUL PRAYER THROUGH ST. JOSEPH


"Glorious St. Joseph, tenderhearted father, faithful guardian of Jesus, chaste spouse of the Mother of God, I ask you to join me in praising God the Father through His Divine Son who died on the cross and rose again to give us sinners new life. Through the Holy Name of Jesus, pray with me that we may obtain from the eternal Father the favor we ask. (here state your intention)."


Say this prayer for nine consecutive days.


Fear not! God is your shelter (the 23rd Psalm and the Lord’s Prayer. God never fails). Don’t fail him. Call on Jesus. Jesus on the mainline, tell him what you want!

Prayer to the Blessed Virgin Mary Protectress of Africa


Holy Mary, Mother of God, Protectress of Africa, you have given to the world the true Light, Jesus Christ. Through your obedience to the Father and the grace of the Holy Spirit, you have given us the source of our reconciliation and our justice, Jesus Christ, our peace and our joy.


Mother of Tenderness and Wisdom, show us Jesus, your Son and the Son of God. Guide our path of conversion, so that Jesus might shine his glory on us in every aspect of our personal, familial and social lives.


Mother, full of Mercy and Justice, through your docility to the Spirit, the Counselor, obtain for us the grace to be witnesses of the Risen Lord, so that we will increasingly become the salt of the earth and the light of the world.


Mother of Perpetual Help, we entrust to your maternal intercession the preparation and fruits of the Second Special Assembly for Africa. Queen of Peace, pray for us! Our Lady of Africa, pray for us!

URGENT MSG from GOD THE FATHER TO m. tague- - -August 5, 2009


GOD THE FATHER SPEAKS:


The sinking of NYC is no longer a remote possibility but is soon to be reality. Deadly nuclear warfare is very near. Storms of all sorts will lengthen and worsen. Diseases are multiplying and spreading with absolutely no cures. Havoc is everywhere. Stay close to Me and pray incessantly. Be alert! See, the signs are all around you! All I have been telling you is now begun! Wake up and and face reality.


Open your ears- - -your eyes- -your mind! Sin begets war. Amen! I, your God, have spoken! The end of an Era has begun. Amen!


m. tague


August 5, 2009


NOTE: OUR BLESSED MOTHER AS 'OUR LADY OF FATIMA' SAID IN 1917 'WAR IS A PUNISHMENT FOR SIN.' REMEMBER THAT WHEN THE FATHER OR JESUS SAY 'SOON' IT IS NOT IN OUR TIMING BUT IN HIS WHICH IS MUCH LONGER..THAN OURS..OR MUCH SHORTER DEPENDING UPON WHEN HIS JUSTICE WILL FALL..AND OF COURSE ONLY THE FATHER KNOWS WHEN..

 


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 08 - ST. DOMINIC


"Now is above all the hour of the lay faithful, who, by their specific vocation to shape the secular world in accordance with the Gospel, are called to carry forward the Church's prophetic mission by evangelizing the various spheres of family, social, professional and cultural life."

 


Speaking of visiting our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament, St. John Vianney writes: "What a difference between the first Christians and ourselves! They passed whole days and nights in the churches, singing the praises of the Lord or weeping over their sins; but things are not the same today. Jesus is forsaken, abandoned by us."

 


Mother Teresa


The time we spend in having our daily audience with God is the most precious part of the whole day.


Meditations by Padre Pio - We should make a great effort to become holy and render great service to God and our neighbor (Letters III, p 469)


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Surrendering morality will be our downfall!


"At present two currents manifest themselves in our American way of life: one is in the direction of a great development of moral character both in individuals and in the nation; the other is toward the surrender of morality and responsibility through a socialist state in which there will be no morality but state-morality, no conscience but state-conscience. Of the two the first is by far the stronger, though neither politics nor economics has seen it."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - Union with Jesus on the day of perpetual vows. Jesus, from now on Your Heart is mine, and mine is Yours alone. The very thought of Your Name, Jesus, is the delight of my heart. I truly would not be able to live without You, even for a moment, Jesus. Today my soul has lost itself in You, my only treasure. My love knows no obstacles in giving proof of itself to its Beloved.


The words of Jesus during my perpetual vows: My spouse, our hearts are joined forever. Remember to Whom you have vowed... everything cannot be put into words.


My petition while we were lying prostrate under the pall. I begged the Lord to grant me the grace of never consciously and deliberately offending Him by even the smallest sin or imperfection.


Jesus, I trust in You! Jesus, I love You with all my heart! When times are most difficult, You are my Mother.


For love of You, O Jesus, I die completely to myself today and begin to live for the greater glory of Your Holy Name.


Love, it is for love of You, O Most Holy Trinity, that I offer myself to You as an oblation of praise, as a holocaust of total self-immolation. And through this self-immolation, I desire the exaltation of Your Name, O Lord. I cast myself as a little rosebud at Your feet, O Lord, and may the fragrance of this flower be known to You alone. (239)


MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY

 


AUGUST 8 - ST. DOMINIC


Our Lady gave the following message on the Vigil of Pentecost:


Dear children, tomorrow night pray for the Spirit of truth especially you of the parish. For you need the Spirit of truth to be able to convey the messages just the way they were given, neither adding anything to them, nor taking anything whatever away from them, but just as I said them (Weekly Message June 9,1984).


In John's gospel, Christ also speaks of testifying to the truth:


When the Advocate comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who comes from the Father, he will testify on my behalf. You also are to testify because you have been with me from the beginning (Jn. 15:26-27). Reflection:


This passage from St. John was the motivating force behind the life and work of St. Dominic to preach the truth as contained in the gospels. Dominic (1170-1221) was one of the church's greatest preachers and founded, in fact, the Order of Preachers, or Dominicans.


From childhood he showed signs of a vocation, which was encouraged. He also gave evidence of a great concern for the poor. During a time of hunger he sold his books, precious items in his day, to feed the poor. Like St. Francis of Assisi, he saw poverty in practice as a remedy for many of the ills that afflicted the church in the late twelfth and early thirteenth centuries.


St. Dominic's ideal was to combine prayer and asceticism with study and the ministry of preaching. What one preached is learned in prayer and contemplation. "Bring to others what you contemplate," is the motto he gave to the order he founded. It could well be the motto of every Christian.


Application:


"You need the Spirit of truth, "Our Lady says today," to be able to convey the messages just the way they were given. "In the spirit St. Dominic, seek to share your faith with at least one other person this week.


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 07 - FOLLOW THE MASS WELL!


Some 32 years ago, Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen said, "Who is going to save our Church? Not our bishops, not our priests and religious. It is up to you, the people. You have the minds, the eyes, the ears to save the Church. Your mission is to see that your priests act like priests, your bishops, like bishops and your religious act like religious."


(Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen, before the Knights of Columbus, June 1972, http://www.marysremnant.org/News/2002/022702.html)


One single Mass gives more honor to God than all the penances of the Saints, the labors of the Apostles, the sufferings of the Martyrs and even the burning love of the Blessed Mother of God." ~ St. Alphonsus Liguori

 


Mother Teresa - Both humility and prayer grow from an ear, mind, and tongue that have lived in silence with God, for in the silence of the heart God speaks.


Meditations by Padre Pio - I am sure that you desire to know what the best abjection is, and I will tell you it is that which we have not chosen ourselves, or that which is less welcome to us. Or, to explain this better, those towards which we feel no inclination (Letters III p 572).


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Our Education system must be on the right target


"Someday our educators will awaken to several basic facts about youth: (1) Youth has an intellect and a will. The intellect is the source of his knowledge; the will, the source of his decisions.


If his choices are wrong, the youth will be wrong regardless of how much he knows. (2) Education through the communication of knowledge does not necessarily make a good man; it can conceivably make learned devils instead of stupid devils. (3) Education is successful when it trains the mind to see the right targets, and disciplines the will to choose them rather than the wrong targets."

 


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - When I was set at peace and taught how to follow God's paths, my spirit rejoiced in the Lord, and it seemed to me that I was running, not walking. My wings were spread for flight; I soared into the very heat of the sun, and I will not descend until I rest in Him, in whom my soul has lost itself forever.


And I subjected myself totally to the action of grace. God stoops very low to my soul. I do not draw back, nor do I resist Him, but I lose myself in Him as my only treasure. I am one with the Lord. It is as if the gulf between us, Creator and creature, disappears. For a few days, my soul was in a state of continuous ecstasy.


God's presence did not leave me for a single moment. And my soul remained in a continuous loving union with the Lord. But this in no way interfered with the performance of my duties. I felt I was transformed into love; I was all afire, but without being burned up. I lost myself in God unceasingly;


God drew me to himself so strongly and powerfully that sometimes I was not aware of being on earth. I had impeded and feared God's grace for so long, and now God himself, through Father Andrasz, has removed all difficulties. My spirit has been turned towards the Sun and has blossomed in His rays for Him alone; I understand no more...

AUGUST 7 - FOLLOW THE MASS WELL!


Of the Mass, the Madonna once said:


Open the door wide, follow the Mass well! Go in the peace of God, my angels! If you suffer for a just cause, blessing will be even more abundant for you (First Years March 2, 1982).


St. Luke offers this account of Jesus' institution of the Eucharist:


Then he took a loaf of bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and gave it to them, saying, "This is my body, which is given for you. Do this in remembrance of me. "And he did the same with the cup after supper, saying," This cup that is poured out for you is the new covenant in my blood"(Lk 22:19-20).


Reflection:


During the winter lf 1992, I had the opportunity to visit Dachau concentration camp near Munich, where the Nazi's had imprisoned most of the clergymen and priests who had opposed the Third Reich. It was there that I acquired a remarkable booklet by the auxiliary bishop of Munich, Johannes Neuhausler, who had been a prisoner at Dachau himself. In chapter 7,"Christ at Dachau," he speaks of the incredible lengths the prisoners would go to in order to offer Mass and receive the Eucharist:


The Polish priest. were not permitted to practice their religion in the block, so they had to devise means and receive the Eucharist:


Many worked in the plantation greenhouse. While one of them kept guard and the other comrades pretended to be


working, the Polish priest who had spent the longest time in the camp knelt on the ground, with is face turned towards the greenhouse so as to give the impression that he was weeding. Indeed, the SS sentries might be spying from their watchtower.


The kneeling priest had pressed a small portable altar into the ground and there celebrated Mass. Many comrades hurried by, holding grass of plants in their hands as if they had some work to do there. They also knelt down and received holy communion form their own hands.

AUGUST 5 - DEDICATION OF MARY MAJOR


Reflection:


Today we honor the Blessed Mother for two reasons: It is her birthday (as related by the visionaries in Medjugorje), and it is also the anniversary of the dedication of the Church of St. Mary Major, the oldest church in the West dedicated to the Mother of God. On her birthday in 1985, Our Lady appeared in golden splendor and said:


Praised be Jesus Christ. My children, I am joyful to be with you this evening and to see so many of you. I give you my special blessing.


Grow in holiness through the messages; I will help you. Give your utmost and we will be together, sensitive to the sweetness of life, light, and joy. Go in the peace of God, my children, my little children. (Special Message August 5th, 1985


"Put all the good works in the world against one Holy Mass; they will be as a grain of sand beside a mountain." ~ The Cure' of Ars

 


Mother Teresa - In the silence of the heart, God speaks and you have to listen. Then in the fullness of your heart, because it is full of God, full of love, full of compassion, full of faith, your mouth will speak.


Meditations by Padre Pio - You must principally insist on the basis of christian justice and the foundation of goodness; that is on the virtue which one deliberately tries to imitate: humility, interior and exterior humility, but more interior than exterior, more felt than shown, more profound than visible (Letters III p 717).


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Tears of salvation!


"Even in their early failures, the parents are not to be discouraged, remembering that fifteen centuries ago when the heart of a mother was broken for her wanton boy, St. Ambrose said to her: 'Fear not, Monica; the child of so many tears cannot perish.' That vain and wanton boy grew up to be the great and learned St. Augustine, whose Confessions everyone ought to read before he dies."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html -


A great mystery has been accomplished between God and me. Courage and strength have remained in my soul. When the time of adoration came to an end, I came out and calmly faced everything I had feared so much before. When I came out into the corridor, a great suffering and humiliation, at the hands of a certain person, was awaiting me. I accepted it with submission to a higher will and snuggled closely to the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus, letting Him know that I was ready for that for which I had offered myself.


Suffering seemed to spring out of the ground. Even Mother Margaret herself was surprised. For others, many things passed unnoticed, for indeed it wasn't worth paying any attention to them; but in my case, nothing passed unnoticed; each word was analyzed, each step watched. One sister said to me, "Get ready, Sister, to receive a small cross at the hands of Mother Superior.


I feel sorry for you." But as for me, I rejoiced at this in the depths of my soul and had been ready for it for a long time. When she saw my courage, she was surprised. I see now that a soul cannot do much itself, but with God it can do all things. Behold what God's grace can do. Few are the souls that are always watchful for divine graces, and even fewer of such souls who follow those inspirations faithfully. (138)

The Rev. Fr. Melvin Doucette, M.Afr./ 1704 Palmer Road, RR 2 Tignish, PE (Prince Edward Island) C0B 2B0 / CANADA Tel: 902-882-2004 / Email: melvin.doucette@pei.sympatico.ca Thursday, August 06, 2009 "Be generous" Dear Friends, Many Parts in One Body I urge you therefore, brothers, by the mercies of God, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God, your spiritual worship. Do not conform yourself to this age but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and pleasing and perfect.


For by the grace given to me I tell everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than one ought to think, but to think soberly, each according to the measure of faith that God has apportioned.


For as in one body we have many parts, and all the parts do not have the same function, so we, though many, are one body in Christ and individually parts of one another. Since we have gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us exercise them: if prophecy, in proportion to the faith; if ministry, in ministering; if one is a teacher, in teaching; if one exhorts, in exhortation; if one contributes, in generosity; if one is over others, with diligence; if one does acts of mercy, with cheerfulness. Romans 12:1–8


Below you will find the message of Our Lord and Savior given to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words,


“How should you think of yourself? Do you think you are better than everybody else? Do not be puffed up and filled with pride. Know that you are a sinner and understand that by your own power you could never reach salvation.


It was I, your Savior, by My sacrifice on the cross who took away all your sins if you were repentant and placed you on the way to heaven. By My forgiveness, you have become the beloved of the Father and now you are called to follow Me. You received many graces to give you the strength to walk with Me every day.


My brothers and sisters, you form part of My Mystical Body. Although you are many, you form one Body, My Body. The example is your own body: it is made up of many parts and each part has a different function but all the parts together form just one body. In My own Mystical Body the Church, you all have different gifts and you are asked to use these gifts to enrich this one Body. Be generous in doing what I have called you to do. Some have been giving the gift of prayer and they are to spend time in prayer. Others are prophets and they are to prophecy to help My Church. Some have the gift of healing and they are to use it to help the sick. There are many gifts, use them for the glory of God.”

"I am the one sent by the Father to save you"


Dear Friends,


God’s Irrevocable Call


I do not want you to be unaware of this mystery, brothers, so that you will not become wise in your own estimation: a hardening has come upon Israel in part, until the full number of the Gentiles comes in, and thus all Israel will be saved, as it is written:


“The deliverer will come out of Zion, he will turn away godlessness from Jacob's;


and this is my covenant with them when I take away their sins.”


In respect to the gospel, they are enemies on your account; but in respect to election, they are beloved because of the patriarchs. For the gifts and the call of God are irrevocable. Romans 11:25–29


Here is a message from Our Lord and Savior given to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words,


“The Jewish people are My ancestors as My Mother was Jewish. All My Apostles including St. Paul were of Jewish origin. They are the people of Godand so many holy people came from this nation including the prophets and the patriarchs. However, most of them refused to accept Me as the Messiah and Lord. This was the reason why the early church had to turn to the Gentiles and bring them into My Church. However, before the end of the world, the Jewish nation will become Christian and already a good group of them are Christians today.


You who are non-Jews were privileged to receive the Gospel first and to believe in Me, your Savior. Whole nations have become members of My Church and today many more nations especially in Africa are becoming Christians. Unfortunately where there were many followers of mine in the past, today the number is going down as it is in many countries of Europe. I continue to call all the people of every nation to become My followers and to be members of My Church. Do not jeopardize your eternal salvation by following the lure of the world or false religions. Come now to Me and follow the true way to salvation. I am the one sent by the Father to save you.”


Father Melvin


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 04 - ST. JOHN VIANNEY


SUNDAY, AUGUST 5TH 1984


The celebration of the second millennium of Mary's birthday was preceded by three days of fasting and continuous prayer. Seventy priests heard confessions without respite; there were conversions in great numbers. Never in my life have I cried with sorrow, as I have cried this evening with joy. Thank you! (RN 18,27). In anticipation of this day the Gospa had said: The priest who will hear confession will have great joy on that day. -


"How kind is our sacramental Jesus! He welcomes you at any hour of the day or night. His love never knows rest. He is always gentle toward you. When you visit Him, He forgets your sins and imperfections and speaks only of His joy, His tenderness and His love" (St. Peter Julian Eymard).


"Let us with Mary [Magdalene] also sit in devout meditation [with Jesus in the Holy Eucharist], and hearken well what our Savior, being now our guest, will inwardly say unto us" (St. Thomas More).


Mother Teresa -


The fullness of our heart is expressed in our eyes, in our touch, in what we write, in what we say, in the way we walk, the way we receive, the way we need. That is the fullness of our heart expressing itself in many different ways.


Padre Pio - Nevertheless there is some difference between the virtue of humility and that of abjection, because humility is the recognition of ones abjection. Now the highest degree of humility is, not only to recognize one's abjection, but to love it. This is what I have exhorted you to do (Letters III p 570).


Archbishop Fulton Sheen -


"Parents hold the place of God in the home. If they act as tyrants they will develop unconsciously anti-religious sentiments in their children. Children love approbation and can be easily cast down into despair when blamed excessively for trivial faults.


With great difficulty can children ever be taught the Love and Mercy of God if His vice-regents in the home act without it and are so difficult to please. When good intentions are rated low, and children are put under the ban of dishonor, they are likely to show they are no better than their parents think they are." St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian. org/directory_ flash.html - There is a series of graces which God pours into the soul after these trials by fire. The soul enjoys intimate union with God. It has many visions, both corporeal and intellectual. It hears many supernatural words, and sometimes distinct orders.


But despite these graces, it is not self-sufficient. In fact it is even less so as a result of God's graces, because it is now open to many dangers and can easily fall prey to illusions. It ought to ask God for a spiritual director; but not only must it pray for one, it must also make every effort to find a leader who is an expert in these things, just as a military leader must know the ways along which he will lead [his followers] into battle. A soul that is united with God must be prepared for great and hard-fought battles.


After these purifications and tears, God abides in the soul in a special way, but the soul does not always cooperate with these graces. Not that the soul itself is not willing to work, but it encounters so many interior and exterior difficulties that it really takes a miracle to sustain the soul on these summits.


In this, it absolutely needs a director. People have often sown doubt in my soul, and I myself have sometimes become frightened at the thought that I was, after all, an ignorant person and did not have knowledge of many things, above all, spiritual things. But when my doubts increased, I sought light from my confessor or my superiors. Yet I did not obtain what I desired. (121)


MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY


These thoughts for a day are taken from a daily meditation book based on the Messages of Our Lady of Medjugorje by Father Richard J. Beyer, Ave Maria Press.


AUGUST 4 - ST. JOHN VIANNEY


The Madonna speaks of prayer today:


When you pray you must feel more. Prayer is a conversation with God. To pray means to listen to God. Prayer is useful for you because after prayer everything is clear. Prayer makes one know happiness. Prayer can teach you how to cry. Prayer can teach you how to blossom. Prayer is not a joke. Prayer is a dialogue with God (First Years October 20, 1984).


And from Paul's first letter to Timothy: I desire, then, that in every place the men should pray, lifting up holy hands without anger or argument (1 Tm 2:8).


Reflection:


St. John Vianney, the Curé of Ars, was born in France in 1789. After ordination to the priesthood, he was appointed pastor of a parish in the town of Ars. He was renowned for his preaching, works of charity, and devout prayer. He died on this date in 1859. Rather than delineate his thoughts on prayer, let us listen to one of his catechetical instructions:


My little children, reflect on these words: the Christian's treasure is not on earth but in heaven. Our thoughts, then, ought to be directed to where our treasure is. This is the glorious duty of man; to pray and to love. If you pray and love, that is where a man's happiness lies.


Prayer is nothing else but union with God. When one has a heart that is pure and united with God, he is given a kind of serenity and sweetness that makes him ecstatic, a light that surrounds him with marvelous brightness. In this intimate union, God and the soul are fused together like two bits of wax that no one can ever pull apart. This union of God with a tiny creature is a lovely thing. It is a happiness beyond understanding.


How similar are the thoughts of St. John and Our Lady on prayer and thegoodness of God. May their words become a part of our lives.


Application:


Through the intercession of St. John Vianney, ask the Lord today for a deeper spirit of prayer

Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 05- Winnipeg Marian Eucharistic Conference


Aug 5th is Our Lady's birthday Register today at this conference to honor her!


May she, who in the Year of the Rosary helped us with her look and her heart to contemplate Christ (see `Rosarium Virginis Mariae,' Nos. 10-17), in the Year of the Eucharist make every community grow in faith and love toward the mystery of the Body and Blood of the Lord" (Pope John Paul II, Corpus Christi, June 2004).


The peaceful soul is the delight and entertainment of God Please meditate on this just for a few minutes. If you have children think about the times you have taken delight in them. How often you have watched them and been entertained by what they do. That's because you love them. Even when they weren't as good as they should have been, you still loved them. Now consider how much God loves you. Think how much He delights in you! And YOU are His child!` "My Son so loves those who assist at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass that, if it were necessary He would die for them as many times as they've heard Masses." ~ Our Lady to her servant Alain - pg. 107, last paragraph of "Explication Du Saint Sacrifice De La Messe"


Mother Teresa - Listen in silence, because if your heart is full of other things you cannot hear the voice of God Meditations by Padre Pio - Never lie down to sleep without first having examined your conscience on the way you have spent the day and without first turning your thoughts to God. Then offer and consecrate your whole person and that of every Christian, especially my wretched self, to God just as I do for you (Letters II p 292).


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - Wings of aspiration"


"The nation of tomorrow is the youth of today. They are the assurance of progress; the fresh arrows to a better future; the wings of aspiration. Even in war the strength of a nation is not in its bombs, but in the soldiers, who defend it. In peace, it is not economics or politics that save, but good economists and good politicians - to be that, they must be good children. To be that, there must in the first place be the grace of God; in the second place, in the home lessons of love and truth; in the schools, knowledge and self-control. "


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian. org/directory_ flash.html -


Suddenly, when I had consented to the sacrifice with all my heart and all my will, God's presence pervaded me. My soul became immersed in God and was inundated with such happiness that I cannot put in writing even the smallest part of it. I felt that His Majesty was enveloping me. I was extraordinarily fused with God. I saw that God was well pleased with me and, reciprocally, my spirit drowned itself in Him.


Aware of this union with God, I felt I was especially loved and, in turn, I loved with all my soul. A great mystery took place during that adoration, a mystery between the Lord and myself. It seemed to me that I would die of love [at the sight of] His glance. I spoke much with the Lord, without uttering a single word.


And the Lord said to me, You are the delight of My Heart; from today on, every one of your acts, even the very smallest, will be a delight to My eyes, whatever you do. At that moment I felt transconsecrated. My earthly body was the same, but my soul was different; God was now living in it with the totality of His delight. This is not a feeling, but a conscious reality that nothing can obscure. (137) -

AUGUST 5 - DEDICATION OF MARY MAJOR


Reflection:


Today we honor the Blessed Mother for two reasons:


it is her birthday (as related by the visionaries in Medjugorje), and it is also the anniversary of the dedication of the Church of St. Mary Major, the oldest church in the West dedicated to the Mother of God. On her birthday in 1985, Our Lady appeared in golden splendor and said:


Praised be Jesus Christ. My children, I am joyful to be with you this evening and to see so many of you. I give you my special blessing.


Grow in holiness through the messages; I will help you. Give your utmost and we will be together, sensitive to the sweetness of life, light, and joy. Go in the peace of God, my children, my little children. (Special Message August 5th, 1985). Our Lady's happiness calls to mind here joyful words to Elizabeth at the Visitation:


My soul magnifies the Lord,


And my spirit rejoices in God my Savior,


For he has looked with favor on the Lowliness of his servant.


Surely, from now on all generations will call me blessed;


For the Mighty One has done great things for me,


And holy is his name. Luke 1:47-49


Since today is also the anniversary of the dedication


of St. Mary Major, it is fitting to close with the


Virgin's message on the reverence due to our churches


Dear children, God wants to make you holy. Through me, he is inviting you to complete surrender. Let Holy Mass be your life. Understand that the church is God's palace, the place in which I gather you and want to show you the way to God. Come and pray ! Neither look at others, nor slander them. Rather, let your life be a testimony to holiness. Churches deserve respect and are set apart as holy because God, who became man, dwells in them day and night.


Little children, believe and pray that the Father will increase your faith; then you can ask for whatever you need. I am with you and I am rejoicing because of your conversion. I am protecting you with my motherly mantle (Monthly Message March 25, 1988).


Application:


Today, review your conduct in church. Is it reverent in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament ?


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 03 - FIRMLY BELIEVE


Weak so we can be strong....


Christ in the Blessed Sacrament has made Himself weak as an example to us who are proud. Christ is in bonds in the Blessed Sacrament. He has made Himself a prisoner so that you can come to Him"


Cardinal Newman


And this listening and this speaking is what prayer is meant to be: oneness with God, oneness with Jesus.


Meditations by Padre Pio -


Let us also ask our good Jesus for the humility, trust and faith of our dear saint Clare; let us pray fervently to Jesus like her. Let us abandon ourselves to Him, detach ourselves from this lying world where everything is folly and vanity; everything passes, only God remains to the soul, if it knows how to love Him well (Letters III p 1104).


Archbishop Fulton Sheen -


"Knowledge is in the mind, character is in the will. To pour knowledge into the mind of a child, without disciplining his will to goodness, is like putting a rifle into the hands of a child. Without education of the mind a child could be a stupid devil. With education of the mind, but without love of goodness, a child could grow up to be a clever devil."

St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian. org/directory_ flash.html -


When a soul has come out of these tribulations, it is deeply humble. Its purity of soul is great. It knows better without need of reflecting, as it were, what it ought to do at a given moment and what to forbear. It feels the lightest touch of grace and is very faithful to God. It recognizes God from afar and continuously rejoices in Him.


It discovers God very quickly in other souls and in its environment in general. The soul has been purified by God himself. God, as Pure Spirit, introduces the soul to a life which is purely spiritual.


God himself has first prepared and purified the soul; that is, He has made it capable of close communion with himself. The soul, in a state of loving repose, communes spiritually with the Lord. It speaks to God without the need of expressing itself through the senses. God fills it with His light.


The enlightened mind sees clearly and distinguishes the various degrees of the spiritual life. It recognizes [that state] when its union with God was imperfect: where the senses were involved, and the spirit was linked with the senses in a manner-exalted and special, to be sure-but not yet perfect. There is a higher and more perfect union with God; namely, intellectual union. Here, the soul is safer from illusions; its spirituality is purer and more profound. In a life where the senses are involved, there is more danger of illusion. Both for the soul and for its confessor, prudence must play a greater part. There are moments when God introduces the soul to a purely spiritual state.


The senses dim and are seemingly dead. The soul is most closely united to God; it is immersed in the Deity; its knowledge is complete and perfect, not sporadic as before, but total and absolute. It rejoices in this. But I want to say more about those moments of trial; at those times the confessor must have patience with such a soul. But the soul must have even greater patience with itself.

MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY These thoughts for a day are taken from a daily meditation book based on the Messages of Our Lady of Medjugorje by Father Richard J. Beyer, Ave Maria Press.


AUGUST 3 - FIRMLY BELIEVE


Regarding the miraculous cure of a sick young boy, the Gospa said:


He is suffering from a very grave illness. Let his parents firmly believe, do penance, and then the little boy will be cured (First Years August 30, 1981).


In John's gospel, Christ heals a man who had been ill for 38 years:


When Jesus saw him lying there and knew that he had been there a long time, he said to him, "Do you want to be made well? "The sick man answered him, "Sir, I have no one to pout me into the pool when the water is stirred up; and while I am making my way, someone else steps down ahead of me. "Jesus said to him, "Stand up, take your mat ant walk. "At once the man was made well, and he took up his mat and began to walk (Jan 5:6-9).


Reflection:


The miracles that Christ performed during his life on earth pointed out the geniuses of his ministry, just as the miracles at Medjugorje speak of its authenticity. In both cases they express the ineffable love of God and deepen the faith of believers.


The cures at Medjugorje include the case of Maria Brumec, who suffered a fractured spine. All medical treatments had failed and she had been told she would be an invalid for the rest of her life. On August 8, 1983, while on pilgrimage to Medjugorje, she was instantly and inexplicably cured.


Damir Coric, who suffered from internal hydrocephaly (water in the skull), had undergone three drainage operations, all of which resulted in cerebral hemorrhages which required even more surgery. With the added complication of extreme weakness and weight loss, his prognosis was very poor. In Medjugorje during the summer of 1981, after being prayed over by Vicka, he was completely healed and rapidly gained weight and strength.


Iva Tole, crippled from multiple sclerosis, had to be carried into St. James Church on September 13, 1981 where she experienced a total cure. Later that same day she climbed the mountain of Krizevac to attend a special Massat the summit.


The miracles of Jesus in the gospels and of Our Lady in Medjugorje inspire in us a wonder and praise of God. Truly they need no other rationale.


Application:


Today, simply offer a prayer of praise and thanksgiving to God for the miracles and wonders of his grace.

"I am the one sent by the Father to save you"


Dear Friends,


God’s Irrevocable Call I do not want you to be unaware of this mystery, brothers, so that you will not become wise in your own estimation: a hardening has come upon Israel in part, until the full number of the Gentiles comes in, and thus all Israel will be saved, as it is written:


“The deliverer will come out of Zion, he will turn away godlessness from Jacob's; and this is my covenant with them when I take away their sins.”


In respect to the gospel, they are enemies on your account; but in respect to election, they are beloved because of the patriarchs. For the gifts and the call of God are irrevocable. Romans 11:25–29


It was cloudy yesterday morning but the sun came out in the afternoon and we had a warm and lovely evening. This morning the sun is shining bright and it will be warm today.


I was at the Manor in Alberton yesterday afternoon for Holy Mass and I visited all the sick who are bedridden. This evening I will go to St. Paul’s Church, Summerside, for a Healing Mass at 7:00 p.m. There will be another Healing Mass on the first Friday of the month, August 7, at the little shrine of Our Lady of Prince Edward Island in Palmer Road. I will have a French retreat at the little shrine starting on August 18 at 2:00 p.m. and it will end on August 20. All are welcome.


Here is a message from Our Lord and Savior given to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words,


“The Jewish people are My ancestors as My Mother was Jewish. All My Apostles including St. Paul were of Jewish origin. They are the people of God and so many holy people came from this nation including the prophets and the patriarchs. However, most of them refused to accept Me as the Messiah and Lord.


his was the reason why the early church had to turn to the Gentiles and bring them into My Church. However, before the end of the world, the Jewish nation will become Christian and already a good group of them are Christians today.


You who are non-Jews were privileged to receive the Gospel first and to believe in Me, your Savior. Whole nations have become members of My Church and today many more nations especially inAfrica are becoming Christians.


Unfortunately where there were many followers of mine in the past, today the number is going down as it is in many countries of Europe. I continue to call all the people of every nation to become My followers and to be members of My Church. Do not jeopardize your eternal salvation by following the lure of the world or false religions. Come now to Me and follow the true way to salvation. I am the one sent by the Father to save you.”

"I love you"


Dear Friends,


The Presentation in the Temple


When the days were completed for their purification according to the law of Moses, they took Jesus up to Jerusalem to present him to the Lord, just as it is written in the law of the Lord, Every male that opens the womb shall be consecrated to the Lord, and to offer the sacrifice of a pair of turtledoves or two young pigeons, in accordance with the dictate in the law of the Lord. Now there was a man in Jerusalem whose name was Simeon. This man was righteous and devout, awaiting the consolation of Israel, and the Holy Spirit was with him.


It had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he should not see death before he had seen the Messiah of the Lord. He came in the Spirit into the temple; and when the parents brought in the child Jesus to perform the custom of the law in regard to him, he took him into his arms and blessed God, saying:


Now, Master, you may let your servant go in peace according to your word, for my eyes have seen your salvation, which you prepared in sight of all the peoples, a light of revelation to the Gentiles, and glory for your people Israel.


The child’s father and mother were amazed at what was said about him; and Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother, Behold, this child is destined for the fall and rise of many in Israel, and to be a sign that will be contradicted and you yourself a sword shall pierce so that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed. Luke 2:22–35


Here is a message received from Our Blessed Mother given to Joseph. She spoke to him in these words,


As it is written in the Bible, Joseph and I took the child Jesus to Jerusalem to present Him to the Father. The holy man Simeon was present and he held the child Jesus in his arms and spoke beautifully about Him. At the end he turned to Me and said that I would suffer terribly as a sword would pierce My heart.


This prophecy was fulfilled at the foot of the cross. I suffered immensely at seeing My Son nailed to the cross in horrible pain and blood flowing from His many wounds. I was present when He addressed Me and told Me that I was the Mother of all the people. A sword did pierce My heart when He died hanging on the cross.


Join Me today, My dear children, at the foot of the cross and see what Jesus suffered because of your sins. Repent of all your sins and let Him come into your heart. I am praying for all of you that Jesus may become first in your life. I love you.â€

"I bless you"


Dear Friends,


The Gentile’s Salvation


Hence I ask, did the Jews stumble so as to fall? Of course not! But through their transgression salvation has come to the Gentiles, so as to make them jealous. Now if their transgression is enrichment for the world, and if there diminished number is enrichment for the Gentiles, how much more their full number.


Now I am speaking to the Gentiles. Inasmuch then as I am the apostle to the Gentiles, I glory in my ministry in order to make my race jealous and thus save some of them. For if their rejection is the reconciliation of the world, what will their acceptance be but life from the dead? If the firstfruits are holy, so is the whole batch of dough; and if the root is holy, so are the branches.


But if some of the branches were broken off, and you, a wild olive shoot, were grafted in their place and have come to share in the rich root of the olive tree, do not boast against the branches.


If you do boast, consider that you do not support the root; the root support you. Indeed you will say, Branches were broken off so that I might be grafted in. That is so. They were broken off because of unbelief, but you are there because of faith. So do not become haughty, but stand in awe. Romans 11: 11–20


It is beautiful and sunny this morning and it is cool. We will have a warm day with plenty of sun. I will celebrate Holy Mass this morning at 11:00 a.m. at the Immaculate Conception Church, Palmer Road. During the night I will have to go to Charlottetown airport to pick up a person coming from France and I will come back after 2:00 a.m. early Monday morning. There will be no message tomorrow but there will be one on Tuesday. On Monday afternoon I will go to the Manor in Alberton to celebrate Holy Mass there with the seniors.


Here is a message from Our Lord and Savior given to Joseph. Jesus spoke to him in these words,


The majority of the people of Israel refused to accept Me as their Messiah and Lord. They condemned Me to death on the cross although I had not done anything wrong. I am your Savior who redeemed you by all My suffering and horrible death. I never committed even one sin while I was in the world but I was rejected and killed.


With the rejection of the Jews, it was the Gentiles, the non-Jews, who believed in Me and entered My Kingdom. Today a very large portion of the people of the world are My followers and many of them are very close to Me. Be thankful that I gave you the graces you needed to come to know Me, believe in Me and to follow Me.


Do not boast that you are better than the Jews but thank the Father that you have received much from the Jewish people, such as the Old Testament, the Ten Commandments and all the first leaders of My Church. I bless you and call you to remain always close to Me.

Message from Our Blessed Mother to Carlos Lopez


July 22, 2009 St. Bruno’s Church, San Bruno, CA


Dear little children,


Thank you for having accepted my invitation of this night. I come to give you my maternal blessing.


You say that you love me, but you still do not know me. You say that you love me, but you do not pray. You say that you love me, but you reject me. You say that you love me, but you do not listen to me. You say that you love me, but you do not trust in me. You say that you love me, but many do not take seriously my plea to conversion and to holiness.


My unbelieving and stubborn children, when will you attend to the call of your Mother? You ask but you do not know how, because you do not listen to me. My little ones, how happy you would be if only you would learn how to listen to me. You would not suffer if only you would learn to obey my call to prayer.


Many look for peace in the world. How can you believe that the world can give you peace, if the world lives in darkness? You look for that peace in the wrong place because the world belongs to the prince of lies. If you look for peace in the world, you belong to the world.


Those who look for peace in God, belong to God and the world does not belong to them even if they live in the world; they do not belong to the world because they reject the things of the world and they look for the things of God. The things of the world and its distractions are temporary, but the things of God are eternal. Look for eternity and happiness in Jesus. Jesus is peace, the true peace. In Him you are safe. In Him you are secure. In Him you will be happy forever.


Pray, pray, pray and comply with my call of this night.


Thank you for having accepted my message of this night. May the blessing of Almighty God be with all of you and in a special way with my beloved priests and deacon who helped me this night.


In the Name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.


Medjugorge mesages


Message to Mirjana - August 2, 2009 Thousands of people were present near the Blue Cross, at the base of Apparition Hill, for the monthly apparition to visionary Mirjana Soldo. After the apparition, Mirjana relayed the following message from Our Lady:


"Dear children, I am coming, with my motherly love, to point out the way by which you are to set out, in order that you may be all the more like my Son; and by that, closer to and more pleasing to God. Do not refuse my love. Do not renounce salvation and eternal life for the sake of the transience and frivolity of this life. I am among you to lead you and, as a mother, to caution you. Come with me."


Mirjana reported that Our Lady appeared with the sun shining behind her during the entire apparition. At the same time, thousands of onlookers also reported seeing what is commonly called the miracle of the sun, where a person can look directly at the sun without any discomfort.


Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 04 - ST. JOHN VIANNEY


SUNDAY, AUGUST 5TH 1984


In anticipation of this day the Gospa had said: The priest who will hear confession will have great joy on that day.


"How kind is our sacramental Jesus! He welcomes you at any hour of the day or night. His love never knows rest. He is always gentle toward you. When you visit Him, He forgets your sins and imperfections and speaks only of His joy, His tenderness and His love" (St. Peter Julian Eymard).


"Let us with Mary [Magdalene] also sit in devout meditation [with Jesus in the Holy Eucharist], and hearken well what our Savior, being now our guest, will inwardly say unto us" (St. Thomas More). Mother Teresa - The fullness of our heart is expressed in our eyes, in our touch, in what we write, in what we say, in the way we walk, the way we receive, the way we need. That is the fullness of our heart expressing itself in many different ways.


Padre Pio - Nevertheless there is some difference between the virtue of humility and that of abjection, because humility is the recognition of ones abjection. Now the highest degree of humility is, not only to recognize one's abjection, but to love it. This is what I have exhorted you to do (Letters III p 570).


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - "Parents hold the place of God in the home. If they act as tyrants they will develop unconsciously anti-religious sentiments in their children. Children love approbation and can be easily cast down into despair when blamed excessively for trivial faults. With great difficulty can children ever be taught the Love and Mercy of God if His vice-regents in the home act without it and are so difficult to please. When good intentions are rated low, and children are put under the ban of dishonor, they are likely to show they are no better than their parents think they are."


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - There is a series of graces which God pours into the soul after these trials by fire. The soul enjoys intimate union with God. It has many visions, both corporeal and intellectual. It hears many supernatural words, and sometimes distinct orders. But despite these graces, it is not self-sufficient.


In fact it is even less so as a result of God's graces, because it is now open to many dangers and can easily fall prey to illusions. It ought to ask God for a spiritual director; but not only must it pray for one, it must also make every effort to find a leader who is an expert in these things, just as a military leader must know the ways along which he will lead [his followers] into battle. A soul that is united with God must be prepared for great and hard-fought battles.


After these purifications and tears, God abides in the soul in a special way, but the soul does not always cooperate with these graces. Not that the soul itself is not willing to work, but it encounters so many interior and exterior difficulties that it really takes a miracle to sustain the soul on these summits. In this, it absolutely needs a director. People have often sown doubt in my soul, and I myself have sometimes become frightened at the thought that I was, after all, an ignorant person and did not have knowledge of many things, above all, spiritual things. But when my doubts increased, I sought light from my confessor or my superiors. Yet I did not obtain what I desired. (121)


MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY These thoughts for a day are taken from a daily meditation book based on the Messages of Our Lady of Medjugorje by Father Richard J. Beyer, Ave Maria Press.


AUGUST 4 - ST. JOHN VIANNEY


The Madonna speaks of prayer today: When you pray you must feel more. Prayer is a conversation with God. To pray means to listen to God. Prayer is useful for you because after prayer everything is clear. Prayer makes one know happiness. Prayer can teach you how to cry. Prayer can teach you how to blossom. Prayer is not a joke. Prayer is a dialogue with God (First Years October 20, 1984).


And from Paul's first letter to Timothy: I desire, then, that in every place the men should pray, lifting up holy hands without anger or argument (1 Tm 2:8).


Reflection:


St. John Vianney, the Curé of Ars, was born in France in 1789. After ordination to the priesthood, he was appointed pastor of a parish in the town of Ars. He was renowned for his preaching, works of charity, and devout prayer. He died on this date in 1859.


Rather than delineate his thoughts on prayer, let us listen to one of his catechetical instructions:


My little children, reflect on these words: the Christian's treasure is not on earth but in heaven. Our thoughts, then, ought to be directed to where our treasure is. This is the glorious duty of man; to pray and to love. If you pray and love, that is where a man's happiness lies.


Prayer is nothing else but union with God. When one has a heart that is pure and united with God, he is given a kind of serenity and sweetness that makes him ecstatic, a light that surrounds him with marvelous brightness. In this intimate union, God and the soul are fused together like two bits of wax that no one can ever pull apart. This union of God with a tiny creature is a lovely thing. It is a happiness beyond understanding.


How similar are the thoughts of St. John and Our Lady on prayer and the goodness of God. May their words become a part of our lives.


Application:


Through the intercession of St. John Vianney, ask the Lord today for a deeper spirit of prayer -

Weak so we can be strong....


Christ in the Blessed Sacrament has made Himself weak as an example to us who are proud. Christ is in bonds in the Blessed Sacrament. He has made Himself a prisoner so that you can come to Him"

Medjugorje Day By Day Aug 02- SIN HAS GAINED GROUND


"Come to that pure, sweet source of the Precious Blood whence flow peace, generosity and divine charity" (Mother Catherine Aurelia, Foundress of the Sisters of the Precious Blood).


Mother Teresa - God speaks in the silence of the heart, and we listen. And then we speak to God from the fullness of our heart, and God listens.


Meditations by Padre Pio - Furthermore I tell you to love your abjection, and loving your abjection consists precisely in this: If you are humble, tranquil, sweet and confident in times of darkness and impotence; that is, if you do not become restless, upset and anxious because of all of this, but are cheerful (I don't say joyful, but that you frankly and constantly embrace these crosses, and remain in this darkness) then you will love your abjection. Because what does abjection mean if not to be humble and powerless? (Letters III p569-570).


Archbishop Fulton Sheen - We must treasure our parental duty "What if God placed a precious diamond in the hands of parents and told them to inscribe on it a sentence which would be read on the Last Day, and Where there's a will, there's a way to educate goodness!


St. Faustina's diary http://www.marian.org/directory_flash.html - Good night, my Jesus; the bell is calling me to sleep. My Jesus, You see that I am dying from the desire to save souls. Good night, my Beloved; I rejoice at being one day closer to eternity. And if You let me wake up tomorrow, Jesus, I shall begin a new hymn to Your praise. (679)


Jesus, You know that I love suffering and want to drain the cup of suffering to the last drop; and yet, my nature experienced a slight shudder and fear. Quickly, however, my trust in the infinite mercy of God was awakened in all its force, and everything else had to give way before it, like a shadow retreating before the sun's rays.


O Jesus, how great is Your goodness! Your infinite goodness, so well known to me, enables me to bravely look death itself in the eye. I know that nothing will happen to me without God's permission. I desire to glorify Your infinite mercy during my life, at the hour of death, in the resurrection and throughout eternity.


My Jesus, my strength, my peace, my repose; my soul bathes daily in the rays of Your mercy. There is not a moment in my life when I do not experience Your mercy, O God. I could do nothing in my whole life, but only on Your infinite mercy. It is the guiding thread of my life, O Lord. My soul is filled with God's mercy. (697)


MEDJUGORJE DAY BY DAY


- AUGUST 2 - SIN HAS GAINED GROUND


In her weekly message for September, 1984, the Gospa said:


Dear children, I continually need your prayers. You wonder why all these prayers? Look around you, Dear children, an you will see how much ground sin has gained in this world. Pray, therefore, that Jesus conquers (Weekly Message September 13, 1984).


But although sin abounds, forgiveness abounds all the more, as the psalmists sings: Gladden the soul of your servant, for to you, O Lord, I lift up my soul. For you, O Lord, are good and forgiving, abounding in steadfast love to all who call on you. Psalm 86:4-5


Reflection:


In Jesus' day, the rabbis taught that Jews should forgive those who offended them three times. Peter, in trying to be especially generous, asked Christ if seven ( the "perfect" number) was enough times to forgive someone. But Jesus answered, "Seventy times seven" meaning that we should not even keep track of the number of times.


Realizing how completely Christ has forgiven us produces a fee and generous attitude of forgiveness toward others. When we refuse to forgive, we set ourselves outside and above Christ's law of love.


Application:


Today, reflect on these words of George Hebert: "He who cannot forgive others breaks the bridge over which he must pass himself."


On the first of every month, Our Lord gives Anne a new message about His call to service.


August 1, 2009


Jesus


Dearest apostles, I thank you for your efforts for Me. Do you see the fruit of your labours? Perhaps not. Perhaps you continue serving, living out your commitments with no understanding of how I bless the world through your service. I hear your sighs. I am with you in your uncertainty. In humanity, there is always uncertainty. In humanity, there is always doubt.


There also comes fear and each human will experience heaviness in his heart some day. None of these things should persuade you that you are serving in vain. None of these things should distract you from a zealous representation of the gospel message. You see, the message is so much bigger than each of you. And yet, each of you is necessary.


The gospel truth pushes itself into a world that craves truth, even while it rejects truth. You, beloved apostle, are part of that push. You will feel the strain in your body and soul. You will feel the sacrifice. If you did not feel any such strain or sacrifice, there would be cause for concern because living and spreading the gospel is work.


When you feel tired, remember that I also felt tired. Never separate your sufferings from My sufferings and you will be at peace, even as you carry your share of the cross for this time. I am with you, loving and sustaining you. I am ever watchful. When you need Me in a special way, you shall have Me, with every grace required. Do not be afraid of anything. Your Jesus will never abandon you.

 


SHORT POWERFUL PRAYER THROUGH ST. JOSEPH


"Glorious St. Joseph, tenderhearted father, faithful guardian of Jesus, chaste spouse of the Mother of God, I ask you to join me in praising God the Father through His Divine Son who died on the cross and rose again to give us sinners new life. Through the Holy Name of Jesus, pray with me that we may obtain from the eternal Father the favor we ask. (here state your intention)."


Say this prayer for nine consecutive days.


Fear not! God is your shelter (the 23rd Psalm and the Lord’s Prayer. God never fails). Don’t fail him. Call on Jesus. Jesus on the mainline, tell him what you want!
