  • Archangels Michael and Zadkiel
    Archangels Michael and Zadkiel Michael is the great Archangel of God who has committed himself to the protection of the Son's (and daughters) of God. He carries a sword of Light to cut humanity free of the burdens of darkness that it sometimes carries. He is the Prince of Archangels and defeated Satan, who chose to turn from God and oppress mankind. He is the crusader of the Christ who will protect the soul of man and bring the presence of peace to those who choose to ask his help. He champions the Will of God and not the lower will of humanity. Yet with Love He will help humanity find the Divine path and protect the souls of those that chose it. Zadkiel is the Archangel of the violet flame. Zadkiel is the angel of the flame of forgiveness and of spiritual freedom. Love is the essence of all angels and Zadkiel, in love, will help mankind free themselves from the bonds of pain and karma they have created. The violet flame cleanses humanity of the accumulated debris of hatred and helps re-establish freedom, by transmuting mankind's mis-creations into the pure essence of Light that flows from God. We can choose to understand and feel the spiritual qualities of these two of God's messengers. We will ask for God's blessing through these angels and search for understanding of our role in God's creation. Archangel Gabriel I want to share some experiences I had with Archangel Gabriel. I had received wonderful upliftment and I believe we can all receive that.

  • The Truth About Angels
    PROJECT CONNECT PROJECT CONNECT PROJECT CONNECT The Truth About Angels by Donald L. Deffner I grew up during the Great Depression in the early 1930s. My father was a minister. Behind our small home was a dirt alley which led nine blocks to downtown Wichita, Kansas. I can remember when I was a boy the hungry, destitute men who came to the back door begging for food. My mother never turned them down. She shared what little we had, even if only a couple of pieces of bread and a glass of milk. My mother didn’t just say, “Depart in peace! I’ll pray for you! Keep warm and well fed!” (See James 2:16.) No. She acted. She gave. Often I was curious about these mysterious and somewhat scary men. I had a sense that they were “different” than I was, not worse, not better, just different. I always watched these strangers heading back up the alley toward downtown, and sometimes, in a cops-and-robbers fashion, I secretly followed them, jumping behind bushes so I wouldn’t be seen. I think I half expected them to suddenly disappear. After all, my Sunday school teacher, encouraging us to be kind and care for strangers, told us the Bible says that, by doing so, many people have entertained angels without knowing it (see Hebrews 13:2). I never saw any of the men disappear. They were ordinary, hungry human beings. But my Sunday school teacher was right. God does send His angels to us, and they do interact with us—not just to test us and see if we are kind, but to protect us and guide us.

  • If Angels Do Not Have a Gender Then How Come They Have Boys Names?
    If angels do not have a gender then how come they have boys names? It is true that we believe that angels do not have gender. Angels unlike human beings are pure spirit. This is why when people say that a human being has become an angel in heaven that is incorrect. Any human being in heaven is a saint. It is true that human beings until the resurrection of the dead while in heaven only contain their spiritual nature. But when Christ comes again, and the resurrection of the dead occurs at that moment human beings will become complete joining the physical and spiritual together in heaven. Hence, angels and human beings are not simply a different species they are different order of creation. As such angels can never become human and humans can never become angels. But when angels have been revealed to human beings, they taken on the appearance of somewhat human form. They did this in order for human beings to be able to comprehend the message that is being given to them from God. The word angel means messenger. And each angel has a specific function to perform based on their rank. There are nine ranks of angels: Seraphim, Cherubim, Thrones, Dominions, Virtues, Powers, Principalities, Archangels and Angels. Seraphim are caretakers to the throne of God and lead the worship of God in heaven. Cherubim guard the tree of life and the throne of God. Thrones are living symbols of God’s justice and authority and listening to the will of God present the prayers of human beings to Him.

  • St. Thomas the Apostle Parish We, As St
    St. Thomas the Apostle Parish We, as St. Thomas the Apostle Catholic Parish, recognize that we are the Body of Christ. Our purpose is to honor God and grow as one in Jesus Christ. Under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, we strive to serve others through Christian Service, Prayer and Worship, Education and Evangelization. We keep within our hearts and minds the statement of faith and conviction of our patron St. Thomas the Apostle, “My Lord and my God.” X-Rays Howdy! In my homily this past week I spoke to the possible lack of contentment that the Jewish people may have felt in their worship that caused Jesus to cleanse the temple. And that lack of contentment could have stemmed from them being cheated by the leadership, but not so much as they bought animals for sacrifice and or exchanged money having come from distant lands to do so in honor of the Passover feast, but in the lack of care or concern felt for them by temple leadership. These leaders were to be present to these pilgrims and I think Jesus saw their disregard for them and reacted. That lack of contentment in worship is something that rang in my mind as I wrote my homily. In writing out a homily, I try as I know Deacons Fred & Skip do too, to relate the scriptures to our daily living. We try to offer examples from everyday living of past times or of recent events that will help center these readings to your life (and ours too). There is relevance in these scripture readings so offered to us! Sometimes it is difficult to find a point of connection with all three readings (although relating all three readings isn’t Fish Fry Fridays recommended, but relating only the gospel to the first Almost Gone!!! reading or staying with the second reading by itself).

  • Eulogy of Sister Philomena Rosselli, BVM (St. Philomena) Marian Hall Chapel, June 21, 2018
    Eulogy of Sister Philomena Rosselli, BVM (St. Philomena) Marian Hall Chapel, June 21, 2018 Good morning and welcome to the celebration of life of our Sister Philomena Rosselli. Elizabeth Imelda Rosselli was born on Sept. 13, 1920, in Petaluma, Calif., to Genesio and Philomena Zanini Rosselli, both immigrants from Switzerland. Imelda’s father was a highly successful farmer whose first wife and two daughters, Regina and Candida, had died. He was raising his two sons, Elvis and John, when he met his future wife while selling eggs from his farm. In addition to her half-brothers, Imelda joined a sister, Agnes. Imelda was in junior high at St. Vincent school when her father died, and when she was in high school, her mother died of brain cancer. Her sister Agnes had recently graduated from high school and was ready to come to Mt. Carmel, but instead promised their dying mother that she would care for Imelda until she graduated. Together, Agnes and Imelda made the long train ride to Mt. Carmel to enter the congregation on Sept. 8, 1938. In a Salt article about BVM siblings, they commented, “The sale of our family’s last cow made it possible to complete the purchase of our train tickets to Dubuque.” Upon their reception on March 19, 1939, Imelda received the name St. Philomena and Agnes, Mary Genesio, in honor of their parents. They professed their first vows on March 19, 1941. Agnes died on Nov. 28, 2002, having lived 64 years as a BVM. Philomena lived 79 years as a BVM.

    A N G E L S (amemJam¿) 1. Brief description 2. Nine orders of Angels 3. Archangels and Other Angels 1. Brief description of angels * Angels are spiritual beings created by God to serve Him, though created higher than man. Some, the good angels, have remained obedient to Him and carry out His will. Lucifer, whose ambitions were a distortion of God's plan, is known to us as the fallen angel, with the use of many names, among which are Satan, Belial, Beelzebub and the Devil. * The word "angelos" in Greek means messenger. Angels are purely spiritual beings that do God's will (Psalms 103:20, Matthew 26:53). * Angels were created before the world and man (Job 38:6,7) * Angels appear in the Bible from the beginning to the end, from the Book of Genesis to the Book of Revelation. * The Bible is our best source of knowledge about angels - for example, Psalms 91:11, Matthew 18:10 and Acts 12:15 indicate humans have guardian angels. The theological study of angels is known as angelology. * 34 books of Bible refer to angels, Christ taught their existence (Matt.8:10; 24:31; 26:53 etc.). * An angel can be in only one place at one time (Dan.9:21-23; 10:10-14), b. Although they are spirit beings, they can appear in the form of men (in dreams – Matt.1:20; in natural sight with human functions – Gen. 18:1-8; 22: 19:1; seen by some and not others – 2 Kings 6:15-17). * Angels cannot reproduce (Mark 12:25), 3.
