The Birthday of the Church

The Descent of the Holy Spirit. On the day of Pentecost, the Apostles were gathered in the upper room. Suddenly, from up in the sky, there came a noise like a strong driving wind which was heard all through the house where they were seated. Tongues of fire appeared, which parted and came to rest on each of them. All the Apostles were filled with the Holy Spirit. They began to express themselves in foreign tongues and to make bold proclamations as prompted by the Holy Spirit.

Signs of God's Grace

The Scripture, Mk 10:17-21, is an affirmation of our role as sacraments of the Risen Lors. We know already that Jesus is the perfect revelation of God's love to all people. We also know that we unite ourselves to Jesus in His death and Resurrection so we might be freed from our sins, be called to eternal life, and be sharers in the fellowship of the Trinity. By continuing the works of Jesus we become signs of God's grace - living signs of God's love.

By uniting ourselves to Jesus and His mission in this life, we beleive that we will be together with Him in the eternal life to come.

Is Anyone Sick? (Jas 5:14-15)



Is Anyone of you sick?
You must call in the presbyters of the church
And have them pray over you
While they anoint you with oil
In the name of the Lord.
That prayer, said with faith,
Will save you -- the sick person
And the Lord will restore you to health.
If you have committed sins,
They will be forgiven.

A Date With Jesus

"Come and join us," Cynthia called out to her classmate, Josie. Cynthia was with a big group of boys and girls of her age. They were all carrying large bundles of clothes, toys and food .

"Where?" called back Josie.

"We have a date with Jesus," said Cynthia. "We're going to meet Him today at the Relief and Refugee Center."

"What are those things you have with you?" Josie asked.

"These are our gifts for Jesus," the group of boys and girls chorused.

"Come on," urged Cynthia. "Help us make Jesus happy."

"I don't quite understand what you're talking about but I'll see you there in a few minutes," answered Josie gamely. "I'll still bundle up a few things to take to the Center."

"And call up a few more friends to join us," thought Josie as she picked up the telephone.

For the Lamb before the throne
will be their shepherd and
will guide them to the springs of living waters,
And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.
Rev 7:17

Prayer

As a Filipino Roman Catholic, we have a prayer for God. But for my prayer, I want to share my prayer to all of you for the dearest God, I Hope many of you may know how to pray, and if you don't know what you may tell to our God..Here are the example of prayer, and Hope you always pray this:


My Jesus,
Though You need no one to help You,
You have granted me the privilege
of being a light for others so that
they can gain eternal salvation.
Help me not to fail You in this
all-important work.

Give me the grace to always see the deeper,
eternal importance of my daily life.

Let my thoughts, desires and intentions
center around You every moment of the day.

Help me obtain for people in all conditions of life,
actual graces which may make a difference
between their eternal salvation and their
eternal loss.

Keep before me eyes the grand world-wide mission
You have laid before me.

Amen.

Christ

Christ is its grand subject, our good the design, and the glory of God its end.
It should fill the memory, rule the heart, and guide the feet. Read it slowly, frequently, and prayerfully. It is mine of wealth, a paradise of glory, and a river of pleasure. It is given you in life, will be opened at the judgment, and be remembered forever. It involves the highest responsibility, will reward the greatest labor, and will condemn all who trifle with its scared contents.

The Bible

The Bible contains the mind of God, the state of man, the way of salvation, the doom of sinners, and the happiness of believers. It doctrines are holy, its precepts are binding, its histories are true, and its decisions are immutable. Read it to be holy. It contains light to direct you, food to support you, and comfort to cheer you.

It is the traveler's map, the pilgrim's staff, the pilot's compass, the soldier's sword, and the Christian's charter. Here Paradise is restored, Heaven opened, and the gates of hell disclosed.
