October 12th 28th Sunday in ordinary time.
This week, Lord, You showed us Your most precious Sacred Heart
by appearing to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque.
You told us to adore You by meditating on Your heart of love,
and by having Your heart displayed prominently in our homes.
Please Lord, help all people to realize what a blessing it is
to be able to look at Your Sacred Heart, and see the fire of
love, the crown of thorns, and the blood of forgiveness,
coming from Your heart.
Let us feel the peace of Your love, and help us to get the
continued graces that we need to face all the challenges
of life.
Amen and Amen.
Thank You Lord, for loving us totally.

This weeks readings and reflections
Sunday DEATH TOLLED
http://presentationministries.com/obob/obob.asp?lang=en&d=10/12/2014
"On this mountain He will destroy the veil that veils all peoples, the
web that is woven over all nations; He will destroy death forever. The
Lord God will wipe away the tears from all faces." -Isaiah 25:7-8
Isaiah prophesied that the Lord would "destroy death forever" (Is 25:8).
Jesus fulfilled this prophecy. By His death on the cross, He took away
death's victory, robbed "the devil, the prince of death, of his power"
and freed "those who through fear of death had been slaves their whole
life long" (Heb 2:14-15). "Death is swallowed up in victory" (1 Cor 15:54).
Thus, Jesus holds "the keys of death and the nether world" (Rv 1:18). He
proclaims and promises: "I am the Resurrection and the Life: whoever
believes in Me, though he should die, will come to life; and whoever is
alive and believes in Me will never die" (Jn 11:25-26).
"Christ must reign until God has put all enemies under His feet, and the
last enemy to be destroyed is death" (1 Cor 15:25-26). At Judgment Day,
"death and the nether world" will be "hurled into the pool of fire, which
is the second death" (Rv 20:14). Jesus "has robbed death of its power and
has brought life and immortality into clear light through the gospel"
(2 Tm 1:10). Praise Jesus! Alleluia!
Prayer: Jesus, may our celebrations each Sunday of Your resurrection-victory
permeate my life and the world.
Promise: "My God in turn will supply your needs fully, in a way worthy of His
magnificent riches in Christ Jesus." -Phil 4:19
Praise: Praise Jesus, the Resurrection and the Life! (Jn 11:25) Praise Him
always and forever!

time!" -Galatians 5:1

PM Internet Prayer Requests
http://www.presentationministries.com/prayer/prayer.asp
Sweet Heavenly Father, You have come to my aide time and time again.
I again come to You for help. I am asking Your guidance for "G". He's
doing much better and to You I owe the thanks. He has a job, and not
trying to sneak out and drink anymore. I ask You please Lord, that
now You show him the proper way to manage his money. I know kids get
a little crazy with their first few paychecks but it's so important
that he put back enough to pay his fines and fees from the night he
had his accident. He needs to learn he has to pay for what he's done
with his money. If we were wealthy, we'd help him a little along the
way. Please help him grow up and do what needs to be done. In Jesus
name I pray, Amen
(Anonymous, 10/11/2014 8:40:50 PM)
Lord I pray that I be a strong husband, offering love and security to
my wife and our first born child. I thank You for we have received
support from a community of close friends and relatives at this
critical time in our marriage. I praise You Lord for my wife gave birth
safely, and is resting on her leave. May we be able to visit our
parents back home during this time. I thank You Lord for her employer
cooperated in granting her, her maternity leave entitlements. Have
mercy upon us we need miracles. Lord see to it that next month's rent
is paid on time. Especialy help me with securing a job to support my
family. I thank You for Your great love for us Lord Jesus. Amen.
(Thomas, South Africa, 10/11/2014 6:59:57 PM)
Let us pray to do God's Will.Our Father Who art in heaven hallowed be
Thy Name; Thy Kingdom come; They Will be done on earth as it is in
heaven. Give us this day our daily bread; and forgive us our trespasses
as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into
temptation, but Deliver us from evil. Amen! Let us also pray for Our
Mother Mary's intercession.
(Ken, Texas, 10/11/2014 5:48:01 PM)

Pope Francis, Shepherd of Truth
http://presentationministries.com/pope/fst2014-09.asp?navlink=latest
Notable quotations from Pope Francis and official teachings of the Roman Catholic Church
MOTHER CHURCH
"PRECIOUS TREASURE"
The Church has received from Jesus the precious treasure of the Gospel,
not to retain it for herself, but to give it generously to others, as
a mama would do... We are all called to receive with an open mind and
heart the Word of God which the Church imparts every day, because this
Word has the capacity to change us from within.
SHOWING THE PATH
... The Church strives to show the believers the path to follow in order
to live a fruitful life of joy and peace. Illuminated by the light of
the Gospel and supported by the grace of the Sacraments, especially the
Eucharist, we can guide our decisions toward the good and withstand with
hope and courage, the times of darkness and the most tortuous paths.
ENTRUST YOURSELF TO MARY
Let us ... entrust ourselves to Mary, that she as mother of our firstborn
brother, Jesus, may teach us to have the same maternal spirit toward our
brothers and sisters, with the sincere capacity to welcome, to forgive,
to give strength and to instill trust and hope. This is what a mother does.
