Pray for Jimmy, Dan, Fr. Mike, Mary
Prayer for Grace for our Country
Dear Father united to Jesus in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, the Sacrifice of Calvary sacramentally made present, celebrated around the world, in the Holy Spirit. We offer up all we do united to the Mass. We unite in one mind and one heart as members of the mystical body of Christ, with Christ our head in the pure and holy Hearts of Jesus and Mary, through the powerful intercession of Mary with all the angels and saints and souls in purgatory, and we beg for the saving grace, for our country, the United States. Please help us. We further pray for unity to always do the will of God in love. We spread the Blood of Jesus on the leaders and people of the United States and cast the devil into hell. We consecrate our country to the Sacred Heart and Immaculate Heart and all our dioceses, and beg for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit. God help us. We pray for our families, the priests, the Church and the world. In the Name of Jesus please hear us, we pray. We pray for our president and leaders. We pray that we are united as one nation under God to work together in love as God wants.
Our face should reflect the face of God in our lives.
R. Our call from God is to contribute to the
Church's mission of helping to continue the
life and work of Jesus.
The face of Christ needs to shine through
in our lives.
R. WE LIVE IN THE TRUTH –
CHRIST IS THE WAY, THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE –
WE HAVE A DUTY as CHRISTIANS TO
SPREAD CHRIST'S MESSAGE –
THE FACE OF JESUS!!
We must live the truth of Jesus in
our lives – anything else for the
Christian is hypocrisy – if we
believe Jesus is
The WAY, the TRUTH and THE LIFE!
The Church is the Body of Christ
Christ is the head of the Body.
A person can live their whole lives calling
themselves a Christian, a religious
and live in lies – HYPOCRISY!!!
We are to live to be molded more and more
in the image of Jesus, to bring
the image of Christ to the world –
to wear
THE FACE of CHRIST
shining in us –
Matthew 15: 11, 18-19
What goes into the mouth does not make anyone unclean; it is what comes out of the mouth that makes someone unclean.'
But whatever comes out of the mouth comes from the heart, and it is this that makes someone unclean. For from the heart come evil intentions: murder, adultery, fornication, theft, perjury, slander.
R. We
pray for the whole human family –
From the Prayer Manual
Prayer for all members of the human family
Heavenly Father, we ask Your blessings on all Your children the world over. Attend to all their needs. We ask Your special assistance for all those marginalized people, all those who are so neglected and forgotten. United with our Mother Mary, we make this petition to You through Jesus and in the Holy Spirit.
R. As
the face of Christ shines
from our eyes, our face,
we are pure inside –
true in our face –
we don't wear a mask of deceit.
We were created to know, love and
serve God –
Giving witness to God –
We respect and love the laws
of God.
We live under the authority of God!
An attitude of joyful service
to spread the message of
Christ to all – to the flock!
We are here to help the Church and the
world to have the Christic
image as we live out the
mystery of Christ in our lives.
Jesus is love –
Jesus is light and in Him is no darkness.
He is the way, the truth and
the life –
Openness to God –
We are here to love God and neighbor –
Spiritual Guidance is necessary
for those who wish to grow
in the spiritual life –
It is pompous to think of oneself
as arriving in the spiritual
life –
God sends guides for us to grow and
in pride we can think we
need no one – we reject His
guides and continue in
control, puffed up in pride –
To insist one has arrived in
the spiritual life is to
be blinded by the infinitude
of the mystery of God, it's
ineffability.
God is ineffable.
Spiritual guidance – helps
life in the Holy Spirit to grow –
Growth in the Christ-life –
In spiritual guidance and working
with others in relationships
one cannot hide the things
in himself that are barriers
to growing in the image of God for
which we were created –
God did not intend us to stay at
the natural level,
but to grow in our loving
and knowing capacity on
a supernatural level –
The man who thinks he has arrived
and doesn't need relationships
may never know the places in himself
he needs to grow because he fails
to disclose himself to another –
why is that, if he is perfect –
We need to be open to allow relationships
with God and others to develop
and grow –
God intends us to operate hand-in-hand
and to get along in the company of
others, to be united in work and
prayer and play without fighting
to get the floor because of the
need to control and dominate.
Recognizing the unique talent
of each individual helps us to
work as a unit to produce great
fruit for the Kingdom of God –
We follow Christ, but have a
unique calling by God and
we have a duty to do what
God wants of us in service and
love in Church, family and the
world.

From the Priestly Newsletter Book III by Fr. Edward Carter, S.J.
The Holy Spirit And Mary
The late Archbishop Luis M. Martinez of Mexico strikingly speaks of the ongoing cooperation of Mary with the Holy Spirit regarding the reproduction of Jesus within us: "Christian life is the reproduction of Jesus in souls…
"Now, how will this mystical reproduction be brought about in souls? In the same way in which Jesus was brought into the world, for God gives a wonderful mark of unity to all His works. Divine acts have a wealth of variety because they are the work of omnipotence; nevertheless, a most perfect unity always shines forth from them because they are the fruit of wisdom; and this divine contrast of unity and variety stamps the works of God with sublime and unutterable beauty.
"In His miraculous birth, Jesus was the fruit of heaven and earth…The Holy Spirit conveyed the divine fruitfulness of the Father to Mary, and the virginal soil brought forth in an ineffable manner our most loving Savior, the divine Seed, as the prophets called Him…
"That is the way He is reproduced in souls. He is always the fruit of heaven and earth.
"Two artisans must concur in the work that is at once God’s masterpiece and humanity’s supreme product: the Holy Spirit and the most holy Virgin Mary. Two sanctifiers are necessary to souls, the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary, for they are the only ones who can reproduce Christ.
"Undoubtedly, the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary sanctify us in different ways. The first is the Sanctifier by essence; because He is God, who is infinite sanctity; because He is the personal Love that completes, so to speak, the sanctity of God, consummating His life and His unity, and it belongs to Him to communicate to souls the mystery of that sanctity. The Virgin Mary, for her part, is the co-operator, the indispensable instrument in and by God’s design. From Mary’s maternal relation to the human body of Christ is derived her relation to His Mystical Body which is being formed through all the centuries until the end of time, when it will be lifted up to the heavens, beautiful, splendid, complete, and glorious.
"These two, then, the Holy Spirit and Mary, are the indispensable artificers of Jesus, the indispensable sanctifiers of souls. Any saint in heaven can co-operate in the sanctification of a soul, but his co-operation is not necessary, not profound, not constant: while the co-operation of these two artisans of Jesus of whom we have just been speaking is so necessary that without it souls are not sanctified (and this by the actual design of Providence), and so intimate that it reaches to the very depths of our soul. For the Holy Spirit pours charity into our heart, makes a habitation of our soul, and directs our spiritual life by means of His gifts. The Virgin Mary has the efficacious influence of Mediatrix in the most profound and delicate operations of grace in our souls. And, finally, the action of the Holy Spirit and the co-operation of the most holy Virgin Mary are constant; without them, not one single character of Jesus would be traced on our souls, no virtue grow, no gift be developed, no grace increased, no bond of union with God be strengthened in the rich flowering of the spiritual life. mm
"Such is the place that the Holy Spirit and the Virgin Mary have in the order of sanctification. Therefore, Christian piety should put these two artisans of Christ in their true place, making devotion to them something necessary, profound, and constant." 18
18. Archbishop Luis M. Martinez, The Sanctifier, op. cit. pp. 5-7.
From Tell My People by Fr. Edward J. Carter, S.J.
Jesus: "My beloved friend, tell My people to pray daily to the Holy Spirit. They are to pray for an increase in His gifts. My people must realize that the Holy Spirit comes to transform them. The Spirit desires to transform you more and more according to My image. Those who are docile to His touch become increasingly shaped in My likeness. He performs this marvel within Mary's Immaculate Heart. The more one dwells in My Mother's Heart, the more active are the workings of the Spirit. The Spirit leads Mary to place you within My own Heart. In both Our Hearts, then, your transformation continues. The more you are formed after My own Heart, the more I lead you to the bosom of My Father. Tell My people all this. Tell them to pray daily for a greater appreciation of these wondrous gifts. I am Lord and Master. All who come to My Heart will be on fire to receive the gifts of the Spirit in ever greater measure! I love and bless My people!"
Reflection: The Holy Spirit is given to us to fashion us ever more according to the likeness of Jesus. And the more we are like Jesus, the more Jesus leads us to the Father. Do we, each day, pray to the Holy Spirit to be more open to His transforming influence? Do we strive each day to grow in union with Mary? The greater our union with our Mother, the spouse of the Holy Spirit, the greater is the transforming action of the Holy Spirit within us. end of excerpt

Eyes Are the Doorways to the Soul
November l1, 1993 - 2:00p.m.
Jesus: It is the eyes that are the doorways to the soul. If the eyes sparkle, the soul is full of life. If the eyes are hollow, they may be dead in sin. Watch your brother's eyes. Pray for him always. Every moment with another is an opportunity for prayer. A heart of love has tender eyes. Eyes go right to the heart. Looking into someone's eyes is one way I can touch their soul through you. If your heart is filled with only Me, your eyes radiate My gentleness and love, genuineness and wholeness. Look into your brother's eyes and pray when you do. Pray for his healing and his turning himself to Me. Persons in sin do not like your looking into their eyes because they are afraid you might see their sins. Look anyway. It is the doorway to the hardened hearts. Your eyes reflect Me and they see that in your eyes. I am the way, the truth and the life. Let Me possess you and live in your soul. Dwell in your soul, operate from your soul. What you deem important may not be important to Me at all. I want the work I want done. Your choir practice isn't important. I can make it all work gorgeously. Just do as I say. What is important is how your heart is, how My light is coming out of your eyes. The eyes are the windows of the soul. My soul wants to permeate you and shine from your eyes. Let Me possess you this day and operate from you, My precious child. I need you to do My work.
The dropping of a pin, and your life is over and all eternity awaits. Do these short moments mean so much to you? Listen to Me, little one. Time is so short. My light is at hand. My time is so precious because it determines your eternal life. So short, indeed. Heed My word and listen to My voice. What you do and how you act is so small compared to eternity. This is no laughing matter. It is your soul that is at stake! It is your life forever and ever. Is a few years of life, holding on to such insignificant "stuff" worth all eternity? My life for you is so simple. Love God, love one another. Put Me first and all falls into line-so simple, but so hard for so many precious little ones! I tell you, until heaven and earth pass away, not one letter of the law will pass away.
Here today, gone tomorrow, and I am God! Come to Me and all will be brought to light. He made the crooked ways straight and He nourished their souls!
Listen, you do not know the glories that await him who serves the Lord. Hold tight to Me, little one. Hold tight to Me and receive a divine reward forever. May My name be exalted in heaven and earth. The trumpet blares and the Lord ascends His throne. All know His glory and their lives were not in vain who served Him while in their lives. Their rewards are as golden gems. No one can comprehend their splendor.
Heaven and earth may vanish like smoke, but your deeds will not be forgotten. Store up treasures in the life hereafter by doing good works. Keep your eyes on your Father in heaven Who waits and loves you so. All will be made open in the end and your life will be spent in the life hereafter. What a reward for such a short test! Oh, Jesus, praise to You in the heights. You are so good and loving. We trust in You and Your mercy. Alleluia, Alleluia.

November 20, 1993 10:00a.m.
Jesus: The thorns in My head cut through to My skull. How to describe such an experience? And I was God! Blood trickled down My face all day. It didn't dry up because, as My heart beat, it would open the wounds. Think how tender your head is if you pull a hair! The thorns pulled My hair, like the tightness of curlers, but they cut Me and when they put them on, they hammered them into My skull. This was for the sins committed in people's minds. The hatred, the anger, the sex signs, contemplating evil deeds, sneering and envy of your brothers-ugliness! The eyes are the windows of the soul. What you look at you reflect on your soul. If your eyes look at evil things, your soul is dirty. If you look on others with hatred and anger and getting even, on dirty pictures, sinful stories, bad TV and movies, what you, through your will, take in with the beautiful eyes created by God, sparkling and full of light, reflects in your soul.
Keep your eyes light and sparkling, full of love. Relax the area around your eyes so you are not looking hard and anxiously at your brothers. Let your eyes reflect My light in your soul.
My eyes were stained with the blood that poured down My head. My vision was blurred with blood and My eyes were matted with dryness. Blood came from My mouth from the blows to My head and blood came from My nose from the hitting on My head. I was beaten on My head with the crown of thorns. I was spat at in My face. Oh, such ugliness in men's hearts! It was their minds that thought such ugly thoughts and why I suffered such brutality to My head. It is paradoxical I suffered for that which they did.
Think of men cutting off women's and children's heads in Bosnia! Such hatred the devil engineers in their hearts! I suffered so many wounds to My precious, tender head. The blood I shed from My head is the blood that washes the men caught in sin from sins of the head.
Ugliness, hatred, sins committed with the mouth, the eyes, the ears! I suffered for these sins with My crown, a crown that would allow many to enter My Kingdom if they repented for their sins. I did this willingly for love of you. I saw beforehand every wound I would receive and I chose and accepted everything that was done to Me out of love of you. I love you this much!
They beat My body, My beautiful body, God-made-man. They tied Me to a pole and they beat Me. There were more than one beating Me. They took turns. I was the victim. They in their hate and anger lashed at Me, My beautiful body, tore My flesh over and over. They laughed and taunted Me. They were so happy to be so guileful. Oh, the laugh of the great deceiver! Like a thief in the night, he steals your hearts and you wonder why so hard. Where did their gentleness go? The great deceiver who laughs at hurting others.
It is the devil operating from the hearts of man! The heart is no longer kind and gentle, but merciless and debased in behavior. Oh, the great deceiver! To beat God-made-man and to laugh at his own ill deeds, to watch the blood of Jesus fly in the air and to laugh. It is by this blood that they and all others who abuse others and laugh will be made whole. I, in My love, forgave them for their deeds. They beat Me. They tore My flesh and I loved them. Can you not love your brothers when they are cruel to you? Can you forgive them and love them as the soul created by God, but dead in sin by the devil's hands? If I could love those who spit and laughed at Me and tore My flesh, who crowned Me with a piercing crown and hit Me on My head, can you not forgive him who offends you with a nasty word?
The way to Me is to study Me, to model yourself after My behavior. You must take up these crosses I give you every day. It is your love for your brothers that might save their crippled souls, dead in sin. See Me in them. Look beyond their deeds and see the God Who made them. Do not focus on their sick ways. Study My passion with Me. Study how I loved the unloving, how I loved those who persecuted Me. Study Me and My ways. Don't waste your time thinking about Satan and how he is taunting you through your brothers. He uses them to get you away from Me.
Come to Me. See Me in their hearts and their eyes. Your looking into their eyes will shed My glare of light into them. Look into the eyes of your brothers. I taught them through your look of love. It is My love and My light I cast into their dark souls. Your eyes touch, as your hands. People may not want your touching them, but your eyes touch very deeply the souls of mankind. Strive for perfection and holiness. Do not give in to yourself and think about how you have been hurt and violated. Never cry to any man. Come to Me and cry.
I will rid you of yourself and you will know no man has any power to harm you. The more selfless you become, the more you live entirely for Me, the more you realize that I am all that matters. The more you rid yourself of you and let Me in, the less power your brothers will have over you. You give them power. You think they are important to your being okay. You are okay. You are perfect as God created you. You are My child. You do not need your brother's approval. You are above the ground. You realize your worth and your job is defined. It is to let Me use you, body and soul, to do My work. This takes total submission.
Whom you touch is being touched by Me. This is your work, to live for Me so I can live in you and operate from you, so I can love My people through you. Open wide your gates and let Me penetrate your soul. For I was hungry and you gave Me to eat, I was naked and you clothed Me. "When, Lord, did I do these things...?" When you did them to your brothers, you did them to Me. Amen.
2 Corinthians 4: 6
It is God who said, 'Let light shine out of darkness,' that has shone into our hearts to enlighten them with the knowledge of God's glory, the glory on the face of Christ.
Acts 26: 18
to open their eyes, so that they may turn from darkness to light, from the dominion of Satan to God, and receive, through faith in me, forgiveness of their sins and a share in the inheritance of the sanctified."
Ephesians 1: 18
May he enlighten the eyes of your mind so that you can see what hope his call holds for you, how rich is the glory of the heritage he offers among his holy people,
Proverbs 27: 19
As water reflects face back to face,
so one human heart reflects another.
Mark 7: 21
For it is from within, from the heart, that evil intentions emerge: fornication, theft, murder,
R. A face of Peace reflects a heart of love –
May 8, 1994
Jesus: How is your face, dear one? Are you anxious inside? Then your face is a reflection of your inner being. In all you do, pray to let go, pray to love. A heart that is full of love has a face that is full of peace.
Why fret and fume when I am tending to you personally? I walk by your side, sweet one. Let go and let Me do what you need done. Quit worrying. You spend your life wasting precious valuable time. Oh, sweet one, let go, let go. Please shine to the world. Let your face be the light in the dark world. Spend time alone with Me in silence. Do not think. Let My peace fill your soul. Let Me operate in your heart.
Your face, your tone of voice, your body movements, reflect the person within. If you are pulled tight inside, you will give a tight person to this world. Concentrate on showing peace in your being. Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you, not as the world gives you peace, but real peace that warms a troubled soul.
I am your beloved Jesus. I pour My love into your heart. Come in silence and experience My peace. Let go, child. Peace be to you. I love you!

FACE-To-FACE
Excerpt from November 25, 2014
R. A person who wishes to deceive others
is not doing God's will –
Jesus showed us to His death on the
cross – He was bare –
He sacrificed everything –
The devil works in secrets,
wearing a mask.
It is like the ball of string –
the more we try to deceive and not
live in the truth – the more we
add to that ball of deception,
that must be untwined if we are
to get to the core –
Manipulating others with lies is bad –
Not trusting others that God intends us
to trust
leaves us isolated and alone –
unable to grow as we should
in trust and love
July 16, 1994
Meditation on His Agony
R. He was pressed on, from all sides, His head crowned with thorns and bleedings, His face open wounds from being hit, His shoulders so hurt from carrying the cross and His flesh torn on His back, His hands pierced all the way through with nails, His head and neck ached, His feet pierced all the way through with nails.
Think of a pin prick in your fingers, His head was pierced and His hands had big nails in them, likewise His feet.
Given October 29, 2016
R.
Please spread blessed holy water
(You can also mix Jesus and Mary water
with your blessed Holy Water if you have it.)

Guiding Light homily series — Reflect on the Word — Cycle B The Word leaves an impression on our souls. In my thoughts and reflections are born a more tangible understanding of these eternal concepts presented in the Gospels and the readings. Anyone can read a sentence, but not anyone can absorb it's true meaning. Truth, in this day and age, is almost a matter of opinion or individual entitlement. We believe that Christ's truth is our Roman Catholic Church. We, as priests, champion it's teachings; we are ambassadors for the Pope and Christ to those faces looking at us. We are the light by which our congregation reads to reflect upon real truth and we do it hand in hand. $15 |

Guiding Light homily series — Steadfast to the Son — Cycle A The sunflower is a great example of how we should be steadfastly guided by light. What a powerful thought that this exceptional plant is not stuck in one pose day in and day out, yet adaptable and magnetized to the sun. We feel the same about our Son. Our heads turns to face Christ as each day presents its challenges to find light. We join together like plants in a field and soak up the Son through the pulpit. We are a warm circle of strength using the wind of our breath to carry our priests' words, Christ's words, to new rich soil. $15 |

Guiding Light — Focusing on the Word — Cycle B At times we may feel that our path to Christ is a bit "out of focus". Like the disciples in the Book of Mark, this ordinary life clouds our vision of Christ's Divinity. We may doubt the practicality or possibility of applying His teachings and example to our modern life. Cycle B's homilies are a "guiding light" to help us realize Jesus' Messianic greatness and His promise of better things to come. $15 |

Guiding Light — Feed My Soul — Cycle C In a world rapidly advancing and encouraging personal gain, we are faced with modern problems. There is a challenge to find time in our busy schedules for Sunday Mass or a family meal. We are able to research, shop, bank and even work without hearing one human voice. It is no wonder that we may often feel disconnected and famished at our week's end. In Fr. Joe's third book of homilies from Cycle C, we are reminded of the charity that Christ intended us to show each other. We have a calling to turn the other cheek and be the Good Samaritan to others. We are rewarded with the Father's kingdom and love when we are not worthy. We are not left alone or hungry. $15 |

Priestly Newsletter — 2000 #1 — CD. — Christ is Our Strength — Fr. Edward Carter, S.J. read it the year he died. It is so beautiful. "This brief passage contains one of the greatest lessons of the spiritual life. As we progress along our spiritual journey, we become increasingly aware of how weak we are in our—selves, but how strong we are in Christ. To experience our weakness involves suffering. The degree and kind of suffering can vary. The suffering can include the experience of the classical dark night of the spirit as described by St. John of the Cross. One of the main purposes of the dark night is to make a person keenly aware of his or her helplessness without God." quote by Fr. Carter from the newsletter $10 |
