This week, oh! Jesus, Your church celebrates the "Queenship of Mary".
Mary, our mother through out her life, was totally dedicated to the will of the father in raising
You and trusting Gods plan.
She, the sinless virgin, was most worthy of the honor that God bestowed on her when she
came into the eternal kingdom.
She is and should be honored and loved.
She is a tremendous help to everyone of us who still struggles with trusting You totally with
all of our life.
Thank You Jesus, for giving us Your mother.
Amen and Amen.
Thank you Lord, for loving us totally.

This weeks readings and reflections
Sunday THE KEYS
http://presentationministries.com/obob/obob.asp?d=8/21/2011
"I will entrust to you the keys of the kingdom of heaven." -Matthew 16:19
Eliakim was given "the key of the House of David" (Is 22:22). With this key, he could open
doors which could never be shut and shut doors which could never be opened (Is 22:22).
Jesus gave this key and other keys to Peter, the apostle on whom He has built His Church
(Mt 16:18). These keys are not only the key of David; they are "the keys of the kingdom of
heaven" (Mt 16:19). These keys give the Church such authority that whatever it binds on
earth will be bound in heaven and whatever it looses on earth will be loosed in heaven (Mt 16:19).
We all need the keys to shut up whatever is destroying us. We need to turn the keys to
open up "the floodgates of heaven" (see Mal 3:10) by opening up our hearts to God's love
and truth. The Church is the only place where we can get the keys we need. So, if we're
addicted, unforgiving, or guilt-ridden, we should go to Church. If we're looking for answers,
hope, or peace, we should go to Church. Her preaching and praying are the keys we need.
The Lord especially has made the Sacrament of Confession the key by which we are freed.
The Church has the keys. Go to Church!
Monday THE PROOF IS IN THE FAITH
http://presentationministries.com/obob/obob.asp?d=8/22/2011
"We constantly are mindful before our God and Father of the way you are proving your faith,
and laboring in love." -1 Thessalonians 1:3
Tuesday GULP!
http://presentationministries.com/obob/obob.asp?d=8/23/2011
"You strain out the gnat and swallow the camel!" -Matthew 23:24

This Week's Featured Brochures
Mother Mary
MARY-WHO IS SHE IN GOD'S PLAN?
http://presentationministries.com/brochures/MotherMary.asp
"When the designated time had come, God sent forth His Son born of a woman." -Galatians 4:4
Catholics and the Orthodox maintain Mary is the most important human being in God's plan,
except for her Son, the God-Man, Jesus. Others think that by honoring Mary we take away
from the worship of Jesus. However, Catholics and the Orthodox say Mary .............

God forgive me, I am so tired of sugar coating this. I am so disappointed by how SA, JS,
and especially her sister EB, have reacted to the sudden and tragic death of SB. Her Dad
and I feel so alone in our grief, as if no one else really cared. Some people even seem
joyful about it. EB seems to be starting to come around, but please help SA and JS to
come around. Please help everyone involved. Thank you.

Pope Benedict XVI, Shepherd of Truth

Notable quotations from Pope Benedict XVI and official
teachings of the Roman Catholic Church
WITNESS IN THE NEW MEDIA
"CHRISTIAN WAY"
When people exchange information, they are already sharing themselves, their view
of the world, their hopes, their ideals. It follows that there exists a Christian way of
being present in the digital world; this takes the form of a communication which is
honest and open, responsible and respectful of others.
"PROCLAIM THE GOSPEL"
To proclaim the Gospel through the new media means not only to insert expressly
religious content into different media platforms, but also to witness consistently, in
one's own digital profile and in the way one communicates choices, preferences
and judgments that are fully consistent with the Gospel, even when it is not spoken
of specifically.
