December 29th, 2019 The Feast of the Holy Family Greetings in the name of the Lord: The Catechism of the Catholic Church gives us an understanding into the life of the Holy Family in paragraph 533 which says: “The hidden life at Nazareth allows everyone to enter into fellowship with Jesus by the most ordinary events of daily life: The home of Nazareth is the school where we begin to understand the life of Jesus - the school of the Gospel. First, then, a lesson of silence. May esteem for silence, that admirable and indispensable condition of mind, revive in us. A lesson on family life. May Nazareth teach us what family life is, its communion of love, its austere and simple beauty, and its sacred and inviolable character. A lesson of work. Nazareth, home of the "Carpenter's Son"…So, this reveals the importance of silence, family life, and work which are natural and wholesome when in proper balance within everyday family life.

  • First Fridays and Eucharistic Adoration
    First Fridays and Eucharistic Adoration Let us be generous with our time in going to meet him in adoration and in contemplation that is full of faith and ready to make reparation for the great faults and crimes of the world. May our adoration never cease.” – Pope John Paul II Why First Friday? In the seventeenth century, Jesus frequently appeared to St. Margaret Mary in France. One of the promises He revealed spoke of first Fridays: “In the excess of the mercy of my Heart, I promise you that my all powerful love will grant to all those who will receive Communion on the First Fridays, for nine consecutive months, the grace of final repentance: they will not die in my displeasure, nor without receiving the sacraments; and my Heart will be their secure refuge in that last hour.” Today, Holy Mass on First Friday is devoted to the Sacred Heart and to the Precious Blood of Jesus. The Eucharist is also taken to shut-ins on this day. Sources: Catholic Encyclopedia and The Catholicism Answer Book What is Eucharistic Adoration? After morning mass, the Eucharist is displayed on the altar in the monstrance. This Presence is honored by having at least one person remain in vigil while it is displayed. While adoration can occur with the Eucharist in the tabernacle, being able to see the Eucharist adds to the intimacy of this time. As the U.S. Council of Catholic Bishops notes, “Exposition of the Blessed Sacrament flows from the sacrifice of the Mass and serves to deepen our hunger for Communion with Christ and the rest of the Church.” The Saint John Paul II Eucharistic Adoration Association points out that this practice was expected to continue after Vatican II: “(In) Mysterium Fidei..

  • Holy Hour of Reparation to the SACRED HEART of JESUS
    Holy Hour of Reparation to THE SACRED HEART OF JESUS 7:00 to 8:00 PM The Thursday before First Friday of the Month Blessed Sacrament Chapel Behold the heart which has so loved men.” “Can you spend one hour with me?” Our Lord appeared to St. Margaret Mary Alacoque in France (1671 to 1690), and revealed to her His Sacred Heart wounded by the lack of respect for the Blessed Sacrament --His Body and Blood-- and wounded by the many other sins of the world. For that reason Our Lord requested her to originate a Holy Hour of Reparation to His Sacred Heart. In Pope Pius XI’s’ Encylcliclical called Miserentissimus Redemptor, he often refers to the conversations between Jesus and Saint Margaret, and the pressing need for all Catholics to perform acts of reparation and expiation to the Sacred Heart of Jesus for the sins that the whole human race offers constantly to God. Pope Pius’s description of the decadent times in which he issued this great plea for devotion and reparation appears to be strikingly like our own, especially in the matters of attacks on the Catholic Church and the erosion of morals and religious liberty. Let us not think that the words of Popes are not valuable just because they were uttered decades ago. Time and time again, Popes are found to be prophetic and right. Their voices don’t fade like echoes, they get stronger once we have tuned our ears to hear them again. Please join us in this beautiful Holy Hour of Reparation as Jesus requested.
