| Where's Keldo?Sorry I have been so busy and unable to get online (selling our home on top of it all!).

I personally am burnt out completely. I think in 30days it should get better. Please pray to St Joseph to interceed that our home sells!!! St Ann, please pray for us! Kelly | | |
| One thing I find very funny about other Christians picking on the original Christian Church (ours) the Catholic Church, originally called "The Way" (I love that name!). (Catholic means universal, btw)....
I find this funny:
the BASHING!!
Here is something that would be way more beneficial:
work on your own sanctification daily.
Look at divorce alone in the "Christian" USA...the rate is so high....and what does God say about divorce??
Look at how many women and how many men have affairs, premarital sex, and "internet friends.".....all a "no-no" in the Christian faith.
Look at how many approve of (yet SAY "well, I'd never do it MYSELF" padding themselves on the backs) giving females the right to kill their unborn children in their wombs....and the list of excuses why.
We have such MATERIALISM.....how many "Christians" live for "The Joneses"...Image...status....living pay check to paycheck....overextending on credit cards.....THIS is NOT Christian......live for Jesus' approval. Be humble like the Holy Family....no shame in that.
We have terrible terrible shows on TV and at the movies, filled with sin, sex galore that is outside of marriage, violence,etc. We are the ones keeping it in business or they would not make these shows.
Horrible violent movies or movies like "Jackass" ....nothing that a Christian should really be putting his/her time and attention on.....as it is NOT Christian if you really think about it....
Swearing...how many Christians swear???
Telling off-color jokes???
Mock other races or "gay" folks??? Mocking is wrong. We are to love (we can admonish a sin but not judge a sinner).
Roll your eyes at or mock a "fat person?" WRONG.
Drive wrecklessly???? Speed??? WRONG. Christians should obey that law....not break it.
Entertain lustful thoughts????? Wrong. This can even be adultery according to the Lord.
Gossip???? Wrong...the Bible says NOT to.
ETc.
As Christians, the better thing would be to "love your neighbor and do good to him..." Work on yourself....and if every Christian in the USA, nay, even the MAJORITY, were actually LIVING their Christian belief, THAT would make such a huge big impact on the world!!!! "They will know we are Christians by our love...."
Our blatant disunity makes us as Christians laughable....let's first start with ourselves...oftentimes the hardest thing to conquer.

| This is neat as (counter above) it reminds us HOW MUCH we need to pray for the dying!!!
They are our brothers and sisters in Christ.
Our Lady of Fatima (back then!!) said that souls are falling into hell like snowflakes....THAT is a LOT of SOULS.
We can help, she said, by praying and making sacrifices for them....she said they are going there because nobody is doing that for them. We can obtain graces for them from God....the grace for conversion, repentance.
Please, pray daily for the souls that are dying today....at this moment even......many of them are going to hell....and it is a shame if we didn't even whisper a prayer on their behalf...."Jesus, I love you, Save Souls." (That powerful little prayer was dictated by Jesus himself to a nun and He said it was powerful).
Morning Offering for intention of Priests
Holy Blessed Trinity,
I offer You all my prayers,
Works, joys and sufferings,
Of this day. No matter what
little thing I do, I offer it to
You In reparation:
| For holy priests
For the conversion of priests
For more priests
For the return of many priests
Who have left the priesthood
For the priests still in purgatory
Especially those most in need.
I offer myself this day (optional:
And hereafter until my death)
As an offering for holy priests.
In union with the suffering,
Death and resurrection of Jesus.
And in union with the Sacred
Body And Blood of Jesus
Consecrated daily on all the
Altars of the world by Your
Holy priests.
I make this offering freely,
Trusting that You will take care
Of all my needs, spiritual and
Temporal, for the state in life
To which You have called me.
I make this offering through
The Immaculate Hands and
Heart of the Blessed Virgin
Mary, Mother of Divine Love,
That She might take this
Imperfect prayer and
Present it to Her Son,
That through His Sacred Heart,
He might perfect it,
And present it to Our Father
By the Power of The Holy Spirit.
Through Jesus Christ Our Lord.
Amen.
(With ecclesiastical approbation.)
