Pope Francis’ message for Lent 2023 | ‘We need to listen to Jesus’

By CNA In his message for Lent 2023, Pope Francis encouraged Catholics to listen to what Jesus wants to tell them through the Scriptures and through others. Using the story of Jesus’ Transfiguration as a launching point, Francis addressed both the journey of Lent and the Catholic Church’s ongoing Synod on Synodality in the message released Feb. 17. The pope recalled “the command that God the Father addresses to the disciples on Mount Tabor as they contemplate Jesus transfigured. The voice from the cloud says: ‘Listen to him.’” “The first proposal, then, is very clear: We need to listen to Jesus,” he said. “Lent is a time of grace to the extent that we listen to him as he speaks to us.” “During this liturgical season,” he continued, “the Lord takes us with him to a place apart. While our ordinary commitments compel us to remain in our usual places and our often repetitive and sometimes boring routines, during Lent we are invited to ascend ‘a high mountain’ in the company of Jesus and to live a particular experience of spiritual discipline — ascesis — as God’s holy people.” Pope Francis said one of the ways Jesus speaks to us is through the Word of God, which we can hear at Mass. But if one cannot attend Mass during the week, it is a good idea to still read the daily readings of the liturgy, the pope encouraged. “In addition to the Scriptures, the Lord speaks to us through our brothers and sisters, especially in the faces and the stories of those who are in need,” he added. Francis’ second suggestion for Lent was to confront the difficulties of ordinary life remembering that Lent is a period that leads to Easter. “Do not take refuge in a religiosity made up of extraordinary events and dramatic experiences, out of fear of facing reality and its daily struggles, its hardships and contradictions,” the pope said. “The light that Jesus shows the disciples is an anticipation of Easter glory, and that must be the goal of our own journey, as we follow ‘him alone,’” he said. “Lent leads to Easter: the ‘retreat’ is not an end in itself, but a means of preparing us to experience the Lord’s passion and cross with faith, hope, and love, and thus to arrive at the resurrection.” Pope Francis compared the journey of Lent and the Church’s ongoing Synod on Synodality to a “strenuous mountain trek.” While we hike up the mountain, we must keep our eyes on the path before us, but at the top, we are rewarded by the beautiful panorama that confronts us.

Modesty?

Today we are going to talk about a so beloved topic of modesty. It’s a topic that we either love or hate to talk about and it really should not be because modesty first and foremost is a virtue. Modesty is a fruit of the Holy spirit. A lot of times we’re presented with modesty as a bunch of rules but the truth is it starts with our own hearts. It is a disposition of the heart. when you are filled with the Holy Spirit you want to be modest. Also we often present modesty as just a clothing thing but really it is how I present myself, how I glorify God with my body, in my speech, in my conduct etc.  There are people on the church who say modesty is a bunch of rules and say that people have to follow these rules and if they don’t do, they are immodest or sinful. But catholic church is wise and doesn’t have a modest code like other religions. Because Catholic church is universal and the modesty varies from culture to culture. As CS Lewis once said, a bare-breasted tribal woman is modest in her culture and a Victorian woman with buttons up to her neck is modest in her culture.  There can be some extremes in modesty. Some people say that the body is bad and soul is good. But we don’t believe that. We believe our bodies and our souls are so good because they are made in the  image and likeness of God. But also we glorify God with our bodies. Another extreme is making modest just pure laws and just pure code instead of a disposition of the heart from sin to God. Other extreme is “don’t tell me what to do with my body, how dare you tell me what to wear, how to speak or how to act”. That is fine if you are not a Christian but if you make the choice to be a Christian it says in Galatians 2:20  “I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life, I now in the body, I live by faith in the son of God who loved me and gave himself for me” Further 1 Corinthians 6:19-20 it says, “Do you know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit , who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own. You were bought at a price. Therefor honour God with your bodies” When you say yes to Christ you are saying I want to glorify God with everything , with my speech, with my conduct, how I present myself , how I dress, even I want to glorify God with all my body You can disagree with me because modesty is not a rule. I can give suggestions to be more modest but it is ultimately up to you to decide which is the best way to glorify God.

A Letter from Your Father

 My child, You may not know me, but I know everything about you. I know when you sit down and when you rise up. I am familiar with all your ways. Even the very hairs on your head are numbered. For you were made for my image. In me you live and have your being. For you are my offspring. I knew you even before you were conceived. I chose you when I planned creation. You are not a mistake, for all your days are written in my book. I determined the exact time of your birth and where you would live. You are fearfully and wonderfully made. I knit you together in your mother’s womb. And brought you forth on the day you were born. I have been misrepresented by those who don’t know me. I am not distant and angry. But I am the complete expression of love. And it is my desire to lavish my love on you simply because you are my child and I am your father. I offer you more than your earthly father ever could for I am the perfect father. Every good gift that you receive comes from my hand for I am your provider and I meet all your needs.  My plan for your future has always been filled with hope. Because I love you with an everlasting love. My thoughts towards you are countless as the sand on the seashore. And I rejoice over you with singing. I will never stop doing good to you for you are my treasured possession. I desire to establish you with all my heart and my soul. And I want to show you great and marvellous things. If you seek me with all your heart you will find me. Delight in me and I will give you the desires of your heart. For it is I who gave you those desires. I am able to do more for you than you could possibly imagine for I am your greatest encourager.  I am also the father who comforts you in all your troubles. When you broken-hearted I am close to you. As a shepherd carries a lamb, I have carried you close to my heart.  One day, I will wipe away every tear from your eyes. And I will take away all the pain you have suffered on this earth. I am your father, and I love you even as I love my son, Jesus. For in Jesus my love for you is revealed. He is the exact representation of my being. He came to demonstrate that I am for you, not against for you. Jesus died so that you and I could be reconciled. His death is the ultimate expression of my love for you.  I gave up everything I loved that I might gain your love. If you receive the gift of my son Jesus, you receive me. And nothing will ever separate you from my love again.  Come home and I will throw the biggest party heaven has ever seen. I have always been father, and will always be father. My question is will you be my child? I am waiting for you….. Love, Your Dad.

Cardinal Pell’s Death Brings Few Tears in Australia

The IHRRC will be working to finalize what is now a 46-page document that includes proposed amendments to the International Health Regulations (IHR). The proposed amendments would: Change the overall nature of the World Health Organization from an advisory organization that merely makes recommendations to a governing body whose proclamations would be legally-binding. (Article 1) Greatly expand the scope of the International Health Regulations to include scenarios that merely have a “potential to impact public health.” Seek to remove “respect for dignity, human rights and fundamental freedoms of people.” (Article 3) Give the Director General of the WHO control over the means of production through an “allocation plan for health products” to require developed states parties to supply pandemic response products as directed. (Article 13A) Give the WHO the authority to require medical examinations, proof of prophylaxis, proof of vaccine and to implement contact tracing, quarantine and TREATMENT. (Article 18) Institute a system of global health certificates in digital or paper format, including test certificates, vaccine certificates, prophylaxis certificates, recovery certificates, passenger locator forms and a traveller’s health declaration. (Articles 18, 23, 24, 27, 28, 31, 35, 36 and 44 and Annexes 6, 7 and 8) Redirect unspecified billions of dollars to the Pharmaceutical Hospital Emergency Industrial Complex with no accountability. (Article 44A) Allow the disclosure of personal health data. (Article 45) Greatly expand the World Health Organization’s capacity to censor what they consider to be mis-information and dis-information. (Annex 1, page 36) Create an obligation to build, provide and maintain IHR infrastructure at points of entry. (Annex 10) The 76th World Health Assembly is scheduled to occur from Sunday May 21, 2023 to Tuesday May 30, 2023. In order for the proposed amendments to be considered during the 76th World Health Assembly, they must be submitted to the World Health Organization at least 4 months in advance. The IHRRC plans to submit these proposed amendments to the WHO by Sunday, January 15, 2023. Read more   “> Subscribe for our FREE Newsletter Submit You have been successfully Subscribed! Ops!

St. Francis made a living crib, an enactment of the birth of Christ near the town of Greccio on Christmas Day, and so popularized the making of a crib scene in our homes, workplaces, churches, hospitals, schools and shops at Christmas. Desiring to represent as faithfully as possible the lowly poverty of the infancy of the Saviour born at Bethlehem, when the Feast of the Nativity was at hand, Francis sent word to a religious nobleman in the town of Greccio named John who provided an ox and an ass, with a stable, in anticipation of the joys of the coming celebration. Finally the holy night arrived, and Francis was there with many of his brothers gathered around him. The hay in the manger is prepared, the ox and the ass are arranged around the manger, and the vigil celebration begins with joy. A great multitude of people stream together from various places with candles and torches as requested by Francis to light up the night just like that first Christmas night lit by a star. He ensured that everybody including flora (represented by hay) and fauna (represented by the ox and ass) had a part to play in the Nativity scene since he knew that the Saviour was born for all.  And so, out of Greccio was made a new Bethlehem! Francis stood before the manger overcome with joy, and Mass was celebrated over the crib. After the celebration, Francis insisted that care be taken of the hay and the animals, reminding us to take care of every created thing even after we no longer need it! St. Francis’ initiative at Greccio popularized the making of a Christmas crib in our homes, churches, hospitals, schools and other places where we wish to remember the Christmas event.

The Purple Scapular Packet

In 1878, in a small town in the northwest corner of France, Our Lady and Jesus himself appeared to the approved mystic and stigmatist, Marie-Julie Jahenny. They showed her the truly astounding Scapular of Benediction and Protection, more commonly known simply as the Purple Scapular. Our Lady promised Marie-Julie that those who possess this scapular “will see their family and home protected… from fires, chastisements, storms, and darkness. They will have light as if it were plain day.” Crucially, it is “like a lightning rod beneath which the blows of divine wrath will not strike.” Jesus also revealed that those who reverently use it “will be spared the troubles of the soul” and “will be sheltered from danger as if they already possess heaven.” The following video, which is very brief and beautifully produced, is the best introduction to the history, meaning, and promises of the Purple Scapular because it relies upon the very words which Jesus and Mary themselves spoke to Marie-Julie. Watching this video will help you understand the profound theological meaning heaven wishes to convey regarding the specific images embedded within the overall scenes or related symbols on the Purple Scapular pictured above: https://youtu.be/q8-RVxD3JuY Ever since it was first revealed to Marie-Julie over 140 years ago (including its explosion in popularity among devout Catholics in the U.S. and Canada since 2020), families all over the world have displayed this divine insurance policy in their homes and have received the consolations of knowing that God will protect them from natural and supernatural dangers. There are many witnesses to the supernaturally protective value of the Purple Scapular. As just one example, a few years ago, Christine Watkins of California, the well-known Catholic author, hung this extraordinary divine insurance policy on a wall in her home and prayed the brief Purple Scapular prayers. Just two days later, one of the most massive wildfires in California history began racing toward her neighborhood, led by a scorching 100-foot tall wall of flames! Fire came from all sides. Entire homes and properties were quickly engulfed in the enormous furnace of destruction. Houses were burning to the ground in minutes. Christine’s home, however, was left completely unscathed. Not only did the wall of fire spare her house with zero damage, but it actually passed around her entire property, leaving even her fruit trees untouched. The divine promises of the Purple Scapular are real; this is because its protections are founded upon a loving, all-powerful God who cares about your family’s safety. All you need is the simple act of faith of placing it on a wall in your home. The founder of this website, Bud Macfarlane, based upon his personal experience of having Purple Scapular near the entrance of his own home, believes one of the most profound spiritual benefits of the Purple Scapular is the deeply peaceful grace of consolation he receives every time he gazes upon it as he comes and goes, day after day. This is why the Purple Scapular spreads by word-of-mouth and when visitors see it for the first time in the homes of friends and relatives. Can you imagine it adorning a wall in your home? Offered at cost by the Mary Foundation as a “tool for evangelization,” your beautiful, soft, and durable all-woven wool Purple Scapular will arrive in a lovely gift box with a card featuring the official Purple Scapular Prayers and an explanation of its divine promises. Each one comes with the blessing of a Catholic priest, is sprinkled with Lourdes water, and is touched to Bud’s first-class saint relics as a free service to help with your gift-giving. In large part because of their complexity and the exacting material requirements specified by Our Lady, it was extremely difficult to find an authentic Purple Scapular before the Mary Foundation made its premium-quality version available. Our Lady herself described it as “unknown,” to Marie-Julie Jahenny, so perhaps there is a providential reason why you are finding out about it today. Who is Marie-Julie Jahenny? Born in 1850, Marie-Julie Jahenny was a Catholic mystic who lived in a rural northwest region of France called Brittany (Breton). In recent years, she has become known primarily for her apparitions in the late 1800s from Jesus and Mary revealing the Purple Scapular of Benediction and Protection. She passed away at the age of ninety. Her experiences and revelations were approved by the Bishop of Nantes in 1875. At the age of twenty-three, she received from God the stigmata: she bore and suffered the crucifixion wounds of Christ in her body. On several occasions, she undertook extended periods of complete fasting from food, miraculously surviving while consuming only Holy Communion. Many of her prophesies of specific future events came to pass; some have yet to take place. Marie-Julie Jahenny was prayerful woman who never married. Her parents were peasants. She lived in the family home under the religious rule of the Third Order Franciscans. She had little education, spoke only French, and was not a celebrity. Due to her mystical and physical sufferings, she was often confined to her bed or to a chair. In her home town she was known for her modest nature, courtesy, and her great love of adoring Jesus’ true presence in the tabernacle at the local Catholic church. She was obedient to her local Catholic priest and to her bishop. The Purple Scapular Prayer (The Crux Ave) Word-for-Word from Our Lady I hail thee, Jesus crucified,for granting me life. I hail thee with all the joyof the…
