October 20th 29th Sunday in ordinary time.
Oh! Christ, always and everywhere, remind us through the Holy Spirit to come and adore Your living presense
in the tabernacle.
Let us sit or kneel, and just adore, and thank You for Your love for all of us.
Keep us from getting so busy in our daily life that we forget that You, and You alone, are the way, the
truth, and the life.
Ask Your loving mother to come and adore with us, so that we will stay focused on Your true presense.
Inspire us through this adoration to realize that all things work to good for those who love You.
Give us the faith to always trust You.
Amen and Amen.
Thank You Lord, for loving us totally.

This weeks readings and reflections
Sunday THE REVOLUTION IN PRAYER
https://presentationministries.com/obob/obob.asp?lang=en&d=10/20/2019
"As long as Moses kept his hands raised up, Israel had the better of the fight, but when he let his hands
rest, Amalek had the better of the fight." -Exodus 17:11
Moses at first prayed intermittently while Joshua fought a battle. Moses learned from experience that he
needed to pray continually during the time of the battle. Moses had no thought of praying always during
daily life; he was just learning to pray always during a battle.
Well over a thousand years later, Jesus spoke of "the necessity of praying always and not losing heart"
(Lk 18:1). No one had ever said such things about prayer. Jesus revolutionized the meaning, practice, and
power of prayer by baptizing us in the Holy Spirit (see Mk 1:8). The Spirit "helps us in our weakness, for
we do not know how to pray as we ought" (Rm 8:26). Praying in the Spirit, we can pray:
*always (1 Thes 5:17),
*to our Father as the Spirit cries out in our hearts "Abba" ("Father") (Gal 4:6),
*for our enemies (Mt 5:44),
*in other languages (see 1 Cor 12:10),
*with the angels and saints at the throne of God (see Rv 5:8),
*with the power to "renew the face of the earth" (Ps 104:30),
*and fast so as to drive out demons (Mt 17:21, NAB).
Are you praying B.C. or A.D.? Are you praying before Pentecost or after Pentecost? Are you praying always
in the Spirit? Come, Holy Spirit!
Prayer: Father, send the Holy Spirit so that I will pray my best.
Promise: "I tell you, He will give them swift justice." -Lk 18:8
Praise: "Because of his affliction he shall see the light in fullness of days; through his suffering, my
servant shall justify many, and their guilt he shall bear" (Is 53:11). Praise the risen Jesus!
Monday LOOK "ON THE FAITH OF YOUR CHURCH"
https://presentationministries.com/obob/obob.asp?lang=en&d=10/21/2019
"The words, 'It was credited to him,' were not written with him alone in view; they were intended for us too.
For our faith will be credited to us also if we believe in Him Who raised Jesus our Lord from the dead."
-Romans 4:23-24
Tuesday "AMAZING GRACE"
https://presentationministries.com/obob/obob.asp?lang=en&d=10/22/2019
"Despite the increase of sin, grace has far surpassed it." -Romans 5:20

Pope Francis, Shepherd of Truth
https://presentationministries.com/pope/fst2018-11.asp?navlink=latest
Notable quotations from Pope Francis and official teachings of the Roman Catholic Church
END HUNGER
"LACK OF POLITICAL WILL"
There is a fundamental lack of political will. What is needed is the willingness to end hunger, and this
ultimately will not happen without a moral conviction that is shared by all peoples and all religious
persuasions, where the integral good of the person is at the heart of all initiatives and consists in
"doing to another what we would want done to ourselves."
DON'T BE INDIFFERENT
... These are some reflections I wish to share with those men and women who do not allow themselves to
succumb to indifference; who hear the cry of those who do not have the minimum needed to lead a dignified
life.
THE CHURCH AND THE POOR
For her part, the Catholic Church, in the exercise of the mission with which her divine Founder has
entrusted her, struggles daily throughout the world against hunger and malnutrition in multiple ways and
through her various structures and associations, remembering that those who suffer from misery are not
different from us. They share our flesh and blood. They deserve ... a friendly hand to help and support
them, in such a way that no one is left behind, so that in our world fraternal solidarity may boast its
own identity card and citizenship, beyond any flashy slogans void of substance.
