We're Back.... See You at Mass!

 

 
He Chose YOU
 
 

 

In our confused, anxious, fearful world it is important to KNOW that:

Each soul is special to God. 
Each soul is chosen by Him.

This means that YOU are special to God.
YOU have been chosen by Him.
He thought YOU into existence.
He wanted YOU because He wants to give YOU His Love for all eternity.
Even though you may not perceive it, 
HE IS ALWAYS PRESENT,
Always with YOU.
YOU are never abandoned by Him.

And this is true for every other soul on earth.

A Personal Spiritual History and Theological Perspective

A fool takes no pleasure in understanding,

Before continuing his Saturday Reflections with a short series on the Ascent of Mount Carmel by St. John of the Cross, Brother Mikael would like to explain what, for better and worse, has formed his theological perspective. A significant portion of this will include a reflection on the spirit and history of MDM.

A NETWORK OF TRUST 

"This is what MDM is called to be: a growing communion of trust in His Mercy
for our needy world." ~ Fr. John Mary

MDM started encouraging people to pray "Jesus, I trust in You"  ten times a day back in 2011. Recently we felt it was important to remind people to turn to Jesus with this simple, powerful prayer in a world that feels more and more out of control. We are suggesting 20 times, but some people find themselves repeating it hundreds of times. It reminds our troubled souls that GOD IS IN CONTROL. 

Many of you have put your name on our growing list and have also left a prayer intention or testimony:

Please pray for me, for my fast recovery ~Amado

****

For my children that do not practice our Catholic faith, Give them faith and Catholic spouses. For all my friends who are suffering from illness, give them healing. ~Anonymous
****

The Mission is ours to embrace. ~Steve
****

Please pray for my children. My son needs God in his life. My daughter has lupus and lymphoma.  For my other daughter's education and a Catholic husband. Please pray for me and my husband, we care for my 93 year old mother.~Elvira

***

For my son who has lost his faith. May he return to the Catholic Church and may he find a Catholic wife. ~Stephanie
