This week, Jesus, Your church celebrates the queenship of Mary,
as she so rightly deserves.
She was a faithful servant, and a tremendous example of trust
while on earth, and so she should be honored as Queen of
heaven and earth.
Let her intercession continue to cause grace to flow to all
of us.
Let Your love for mom flow also into us, and let us praise,
and glorify You as our Lord, God and King.
Let us see that Your plan of love is constantly working out
in everything, and give us the graces necessary for us to
really trust You every day in every way.
Thank You Jesus. Amen and Amen
Thank you Lord, for loving us totally.

"Keep careful watch over your conduct. Do not act like
fools." —Ephesians 5:15
Pope John Paul II and prophets from other Christian
denominations have proclaimed the prophetic word that we
must take advantage of the opportunities we have now
because these doors will soon be closed.
Jesus said: "The light is among you only a little longer.
Walk while you still have it" (Jn 12:35). "We must do the
deeds of Him Who sent Me while it is day. The night comes
on when no one can work" (Jn 9:4).
Jeremiah prophesied: "Give ear, listen humbly, for the
Lord speaks. Give glory to the Lord, your God, before it
grows dark; before your feet stumble on darkening
mountains; before the light you look for turns to
darkness, changes into black clouds. If you do not listen
to this in your pride, I will weep in secret many tears;
My eyes will run with tears for the Lord's flock" (Jer 13:15-17).
"Make the most of the present opportunity, for these are
evil days. Do not continue in ignorance, but try to
discern the will of the Lord" (Eph 5:16-17). "You have no
idea what kind of life will be yours tomorrow" (Jas 4:14).
Therefore, witness and work for the Lord now.

PM Internet Prayer Requests
http://www.presentationministries.com/prayer/prayer.asp
I am currently discerning a call to the Deaconate. I have
been approached several times at unexpected times and been
asked to seriously consider it. Please keep my family and
myself in your prayers that God will show us the right
direction to proceed in to do His Holy Will. May He use
His Grace to show me the right path upon which to show
His Blessings to all that I come in contact with. Thank you
Amen.

On the Feast Day of The Assumption of Mary, please
intercede for us…. During the third hour, I pray…Jesus I
Trust in You. If it be God's will…Dear Mother Mary
please intercede to your Beloved Son Jesus on behalf of
all priests, that they would be blessed with the
strength and courage to profess the Truth. Pray for all
mankind. Let us pray for all Theologians, Philosophers,
Professors, Teachers and Instructors that they teach the
Truth. For all students in elementary, middle, and high
schools; for students on the campuses of colleges and
universities that they will seek the Truth. For priests
& religious. We plead Dear Lord Jesus of Divine Mercy to
please remove the evil burden imposed in the proposed
health care plan by the present administration of the US.
Please do not allow passage of a bill claiming to be
"health care" which promotes the expanded killing of the
unborn and now elderly.... Remove the scales from the
eyes of all who are unable to see.

Pope Benedict XVI, Shepherd of Truth
http://presentationministries.com/BST/bst2009-08.asp?navlink=latest
Notable quotations from Pope Benedict XVI and official
teachings of the Roman Catholic Church
GRANDPARENTS: A TREASURE
WITNESSES FOR LIFE
..Pray for grandparents, who, in the family, are the
depositories and often witnesses of the fundamental
values of life.
"EVEN MORE IMPORTANT"
The educational task of grandparents is always very
important, and it becomes even more so when, for
various reasons, the parents are unable to provide
their children with an adequate presence while they
are growing up.
"A GREAT TREASURE"
The Church has always paid special attention to
grandparents, recognizing them as a great treasure
from both the human and social, as well as
religious and spiritual viewpoints.

Council for the Family, 4/5/08)
