God has indeed blessed us with riches to do His holy will and take care of His people. Glory be to God. We are a community that has a beatitude spirit. "Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven," which translates to "Be the last of all, the servant of all, do not judge others and share all." Thank you, financial council and its chair Frances Donio for your service. Click on the title for the summary.

“It is therefore a holy and wholesome thought to pray for the dead, that they may be loosed from sins.” - 2 Maccabees 12:46

Many mistakenly believe indulgences are passé and are a misunderstood teaching. They are very much a part of Catholic teaching and God wants to give you graces through them. After you make a good confession, you are forgiven of your sins and have avoided eternal punishment. If you wish to mitigate temporal punishment, you can gain indulgences.

This Sunday is the 4th of July. The United States is 245 years old this Sunday, and if I say so myself, even in her worst days, she is still a great country. Why should you pray for this nation? Because as Catholics, we are duty-bound to pray for our country and its leaders. Another reason? Because the United States has been consecrated to the Blessed Virgin Mother. The consecration of a nation to the Blessed Virgin Mary is a rededication of that nation's common life, not to profit, prestige, war, or power, but to the tender mercy of the Mother of God. How can it not be great? We have the Queen of Heaven as our protectress! Quite frankly, looking at the nation's history and its near destruction so many times, there must be divine intervention somewhere in there! If you haven't done so, please turn to Our Mother and recite the Most Holy Rosary with passion. Our Lady asked us to pray the rosary for peace. What better time than on a Sunday, on the birthday of a nation dedicated to our Lady?
