October 5th 27th Sunday in ordinary time.
Jesus, in giving us Mary as our mother, You also gave us
through her, a mighty source of power, the rosary.
Please, Jesus, give us the grace as we celebrate the
feast of the "Our Lady of the Rosary" this week.
The real desire to glorify You by meditating on the
mysteries of life and love.
The joyful, sorrowful, glorious and luminous rosaries
give us Your life and the most outstanding moments of
Your actions, that get us all to the eternal life that
was established permanently by Your death.
Help us all to say a rosary a day for all of our family
members and for peace in our homes and the world.
Amen and Amen.
Thank You Lord, for loving us totally.

Sunday GRAPES OF WRATH?
http://presentationministries.com/obob/obob.asp?lang=en&d=10/5/2014
"We will no more withdraw from You; give us new life." -Psalm 80:19
The owner of the vineyard gave the tenant farmers several opportunities
to give him his share of the grapes (Mt 21:34ff). Likewise, the Lord
has given us several opportunities to die to ourselves and bear fruit
for Him (see Jn 12:24).
The owner of the vineyard eventually had to punish the tenant farmers.
Because they did not give him the fruit of his vineyard, he gave them
the fruit of their rebellion, that is, the wages of sin which is death
(Rm 6:23). Likewise, the Lord will let us punish, destroy, and damn
ourselves if we refuse to repent of our sins.
The owner of the vineyard sent his son to the tenant farmers. This was
their last chance. Likewise, God the Father, the Vinegrower, sent us His
Son, the Vine (Jn 15:1, 5). Jesus promised that those who live in Him
and He in them will produce fruit abundantly (Jn 15:5). Otherwise, they
will be "thrown in the fire and burnt" (Jn 15:6).
Repent! Believe in Jesus! Bear fruit for Him or die the second death
(see Rv 2:11).
Prayer: "Once again, O Lord of hosts, look down from heaven, and see;
take care of this vine, and protect what Your right hand has planted"
(Ps 80:15-16).
Promise: "Finally, my brothers, your thoughts should be wholly directed
to all that is true, all that deserves respect, all that is honest, pure,
admirable, decent, virtuous, or worthy of praise." -Phil 4:8
Praise: Praise You, Jesus, King of kings! You have won the victory over
sin and death, and You sit at the right hand of the Father (Rv 3:21). We
sing Your praises forever!
Monday GOOD NEIGHBORS ARE MERCIFUL
http://presentationministries.com/obob/obob.asp?lang=en&d=10/6/2014
" 'Which of these three, in your opinion, was neighbor to the man who
fell in with the robbers?' The answer came, 'The one who treated him
with mercy.' " -Luke 10:36-37, our transl.
Tuesday PRAYER: THE FIRST, NOT THE LAST, RESORT
http://presentationministries.com/obob/obob.asp?lang=en&d=10/7/2014
"Mary has chosen the good portion, and she shall not be deprived of
it." -Luke 10:42, our transl.

PM Internet Prayer Requests
http://www.presentationministries.com/prayer/prayer.asp
For many vocations to the priesthood and that from the preaching of
our beloved priests by the power of the Holy Spirit many hardened
hearts will be changed this weekend. St Thomas More pray for us,
St Faustina pray for us.
(Anonymous, 10/4/2014 8:23:10 PM)
On this last day of my Novena to St. Faustina whose Feast Day is
tomorrow, October 5th, I would like to pray for my personal intentions
and the intentions of those whom I hold in prayer and in His great
love. St. Faustina, You told us that your mission would continue after
your death and that you would not forget us. Our Lord also granted you
a great privilege, telling you to "distribute graces as you will, to
who you will, and when you will." Relying on this, we ask your
intercession for the graces we need, especially for the intentions just
mentioned. Help us, above all, to trust in Jesus as you did and thus to
glorify His mercy every moment of our lives. Amen. Mary, Undoer of
Knots, pray for us. St. Faustina, pray for us. St. John Paul II, pray
for us. Jesus, I trust in you!
(Michaela, 10/4/2014 7:52:11 PM)

Pope Francis, Shepherd of Truth

Notable quotations from Pope Francis and official teachings of the Roman Catholic Church
MOTHER CHURCH
DEEP RELATIONSHIP
We understand ... how the relationship which unites Mary and the Church
is so deep: by looking at Mary, we discover the most beautiful and the
most tender face of the Church; and by looking at the Church, we
recognize the sublime features of Mary.
"WE ARE NOT ORPHANS!"
We Christians are not orphans, we have a mama, we have a mother, and
this is great! We are not orphans! The Church is mother, Mary is mother.
"BIRTH IN BAPTISM"
The Church is our mother because she has given birth to us in Baptism.
.. From that day, like an attentive mama, she helps us grow in faith and
she shows us with the strength of the Word of God, the path of salvation,
defending us from harm.
