Focus on the meaning of the prayer when you pray. Sometimes we have silent time where we can sit and focus on prayers while other times our lives are quite busy and we may be saying a rosary in the car or while offering up chores for the souls in purgatory, but whatever it may be make sure you’re still focusing on what that prayer is saying and why you’re saying it. Give to God your intentions each day and who they are for as we being our intentions to every mass and our guar

Reflection 1 Saints among saints: Do you want to be a saint? What are you doing to get to that point in your life today? Yesterday at mass at St Anthony’s Chapel in Pittsburgh I heard the priest say something during his prayer after the transsubstantiation he said “when we are saints among saints together in heaven.” I thought about that while looking around at all the relics of the saints. (St Anthony’s chapel in Pgh has over 5000 relics of saints) I thought wow to be saints

One of my favorite singers, Dolly Parton passed away recently. She was such an inspiration. She spread joy & the love of Jesus to so many as a compassionate, selfless, caring person! What a light in this world that we were given. I pray for her soul & ask for her prayers for my life that I may inspire others & spread such peace & light as she did. She knew that no matter outside beauty you must have interior beauty. That of a Beautiful Soul! She seemed to have that in the way

Saint Monica & Saint Augustines feast days were recently in the end of August. Saint Monica prayed so much for the conversion of her son who is living a life for himself light of sin, a life against the Catholic Church and the way of Jesus and one day her prayers were answered it wasn’t in her time, but it was in God‘s time and I’ve seen that too with my praying for my husband. I didn’t pray as often as I should back then but I did pray for him in first conversion someday an

It’s July the month of the precious blood so I’ve been thinking about this lately and this is what came to me. In the Old Testament, 📖the Israelites put blood over their doors 🚪 so that when death would pass by they would be protected by the Blood of a Lamb. Now we must continue to take seriously how we do the same! I don’t just mean when you put the chalk inscription blessing over your doors. That’s a beautiful thing as well but I’m talking about the most important one….

Do you ever struggle during prayer time or anytime of the day with Distractions/ invasive thoughts? Don’t worry. There’s nothing wrong with you. It happens sometimes. But the most important thing to do during a unwanted thought is not to dwell on or focus too much about that thought or the meaning of that thought unless you believe it was given to you by God. Discerning God’s will is another thing entirely. If it seems like something Good, that comes from God & aligns with Hi

I’ve been listening to these songs from Peter’s Barque one line in one said something about how we are reaching for a candle 🕯️ for a light but God is offering us the sun ☀️ instead. What we want (our will) is usually only able to see small temporary things that eventually burn out, but God sees what we really need. God I give up my will today to You. Take it from me and replace it with Your will. Prayer from Father Brian Nolan (St Ignatius-Ijamsville Md “) I want to do what

I found this is a great way to not go back to a sin. Remember to picture Jesus weeping because He is. Every time you fall into sin He weeps. He weeps because He died to save you from that exact sin that He knew you would fall into even tho He showed you the way to go but you didn’t choose to even be open to seeing it. I’ve been there before. We all have. We’re all sinners working to become saints! Now picture that person you person about to gossip about (that’s a child of God

Saintly supers are all around us. What? You ask. A saint is a superhero? I was in a Catholic store when I saw Saint comic books Saint Faustina and the Divine Mercy Saint Carlos Acutis and the Eucharistic miracles! When I saw them, I instantly thought wow that’s really neat! I was thinking more about that today. Saints are like superheros! Imagine a cartoon tv show on Saturday mornings that had pier Giorgio or st Benedict or Mother Theresa ! I’d love to watch that! There are s

Hello friends, sorry I haven't been posting every wednesday the last 2 wednesdays I have been so very busy with events, youtube daily prayers, church stuff, and family time. I pray that you all are doing well. I am going to try to aim to continue blogs at least once a month instead of weekly due to the amount of time I'm traveling for events and how little time I am at my computer, however I will try to post more often on days that I am able. I do hope you will tune in for my

Hello, I hope you're doing well today. I've been so busy, so haven't been able to go into depths in my blogs lately, my apologies, this may be a short one, but I will try my best to make it count toward helping to get your soul to heaven. I recently completed a incredible course for fun at Christendom College that I enjoyed very much. It helped me reconize the virtues I may be lacking in and some that I may be stronger in. The class was about the 4 Cardinal Virtues, as well a

Hello Friends! Last weekend we celebrated Good Shepherd Sunday, which inspired my song "That one Sheep" We are all that one sheep that gets lost and goes astray, but Jesus's mercy is so great, that He comes after us to rescue us and bring us home again and again. Today's Blog: How many times do we feel like we on the sidelines looking in? Not sure if we should get involved and help someone? Someone else will do it... What if God said That someone is You. He sure said that to

We found Jesus in a Hopeless Place. Yes you know that pop song that gets in your head. the one was on the radio years back called “We found love in a hopeless place.” Well usually, that is in fact, where we find Him. At Mass Sunday, our Deacon was saying how he was in a place where he expected hate and people to act differently but they acted with kindness he said he saw Jesus in a place that he didn’t expect Him to be. But that’s where the Bible tells us that Jesus is the M

Blessed are You amongst women and Blest is the Fruit of Your Womb Other than Mary, My Mother is the most selfless woman I know. Always putting others first, especially her children and family. Her children's salvation in heaven is the most important thing to her. I am thankful everyday for her and for all mothers. We should always appreciate and acknowlodge the beauty of the gift of motherhood. Mother Mary faced so many sorrows in her life as a mother, but also great joys as

Happy Divine Mercy Sunday ! What is Divine Mercy Sunday you Ask? It’s a feast day to celebrate Jesus’s Great Divine Mercy during the 50 day season of Easter. Jesus appeared to Saint Faustina and showed her His divine mercy & told her to make a day in honor of his divine mercy the Sunday after Easter. Hence Divine Mercy Sunday Started. He told her to make a painting of Him exactly as He looked to her when He appeared to her. So she worked with a painter and had the painting m

The Church recently celebrated Holy week. This week I'm just going to give a short description of each day and its meaning for those new to the faith. Palm Sunday: Sunday before Easter Sunday when in the bible people put palm branches down to celebrate the coming of Jesus to Jeruselem. Holy Thursday: We celebrate the Last supper as well as the washing of the feet. Good Friday: The day that Jesus Died on the cross for our sins. There was a great earthquake at the moment of H

Toward the end of the Lenten season a time comes before the passion and rising of Christ where the Catholic church covers/veils all religious statues,icons,images,crucifixes, etc... Why do we do this? Why would we want to cover up our Lord? The Tenebrae Service also known as the Mass of Darkness which is the friday Before Good Friday. The lights are out in the church except for a few dim candles on the alter, a few voices of soloists or choir members can be heard singing and

Still Rolling... Lazarus COME OUT!!! Recently my husband and I attended mass at a beautiful church in West Virginia called St James the Greater. The Gospel was about Lazarus. The Homily that the priest gave was about how we all have stones that Jesus rolls away for us and calls us all to come out from those graves. I wanted to talk about that today. "Lazarus Come Out!" Now First, think about a sin you're struggling with, next, picture that’s your name there, and Jesus is sayi
