My Visit To Hell

Sounds freaky but no I have never visited hell but it is a tittle of a book which is good and 

I highly recommend you read it some day. 

In Hell the only guarantee is justice. Sad to say that is true in this book of a modern Dante novel.

 Written by Paul Thigpen "My Visit to Hell" is a thought provoking and adventures novel were we all find ourselves in this 304 page book. Still sounds daunting bet so but why not read it you have nothing to loose

To buy My Visit to Hell go to Amazon or your local bookstore.

There Be Dragons

I love this movie and thanks to my dear friend Rosemary I was able to see it along with my dad "There Be Dragons" is a story about two men one a saint and one like you and me

Set during the turmoil of the Spanish Civil War. The story traces the lives of two young men, Josemaria Escriva and Manolo Torres.Josemaria becomes a priest and struggles to spread reconciliation by founding the movement Opus Dei (work of God). Manolo chooses war and becomes a spy for the fascists. He becomes obsessed with a beautiful Hungarian revolutionary, Ildiko, who has joined the militia in pursuit of passion and purpose. 

After watching this movie my dad and I were driving back when my dad mentioned that he liked the part were Manolo quoted: "My dad was able to give me material things when Josemaria's dad was able to give him a father."  I have not had the best relationship with my father  in the past few years and with other men not because of him but because of a past experience leaving me to be afraid of all male figures in my life I am happy to say that has changed with my dad and I treasure those late night talks with him forever. 

I Love you Daddy!

Manolo Torres like the rest of us

Osama Bin Laden

Yes it is somewhat old news but I have been waiting a while to do a post on this. Anyway if you know me well enough I like to check all six sides of the cube meaning. I like to check all reliable sources witch I am capable of reaching of course what the Catholic Church says about it and my comments too.

Usually I take what President Obama says with a grain of salt but this stuck out to me for some reason and yes I do pray for him and respect his position in office   

Here is what he said...

Shortly after taking office, I directed Leon Panetta, the director of the CIA, to make the killing or capture of bin Laden the top priority of our war against al Qaeda, even as we continued our broader efforts to disrupt, dismantle, and defeat his network.Then, last August, after years of painstaking work by our intelligence community, I was briefed on a possible lead to bin Laden.  It was far from certain, and it took many months to run this thread to ground.  I met repeatedly with my national security team as we developed more information about the possibility that we had located bin Laden hiding within a compound deep inside of Pakistan.  And finally, last week, I determined that we had enough intelligence to take action, and authorized an operation to get Osama bin Laden and bring him to justice.

I found this next part in the army times.....

U.S. Black hawk  helicopters ferried about two dozen troops from Navy SEAL Team Six, a top military counter-terrorism unit, into the compound identified by the CIA as bin Laden’s hideout — and back out again in less than 40 minutes. Bin Laden was shot in the head, officials said, after he and his bodyguards resisted the assault.Three adult males were also killed in the raid, including one of bin Laden’s sons, whom officials did not name. One of bin Laden’s sons, Hamza, is a senior member of al-Qaida. U.S. officials also said one woman was killed when she was used as a shield by a male combatant, and two other women were injured.

Here is what the Vatican says.....  

Osama Bin Laden - as everyone knows - has had the gravest responsibility for spreading hatred and division among people, causing the deaths of countless people, and exploiting religion for this purpose.Faced with the death of a man, a Christian never rejoices, but reflects on the serious responsibility of everyone before God and man, and hopes and pledges that every event is not an opportunity for a further growth of hatred, but of peace.”

My Personal comment.....

I am glad that the army reached its goal but like the Vatican I feel that I can not rejoice over his death instead that he has revived justice suitable enough for him and I will continue to pray for his soul. 

Something you probably did not  know is that the terrorists planned on attacking the Chicago train systems on 9/11/11 but since we have found out they have delayed that .

My Confirmation Saint Report

Saint Theresa Of Avila

by

Mylea Pyle

April 18, 2011

Teresa De Cepeda Y Ahumada was born on March 28, 1515 in Gotarrendura, Spain. She was extroverted, affectionately buoyant, and skillful in the use of pen, needlework, and household chores. In 1522, when she was seven years old, she read about the martyrdom of the saints and convinced her brother Rodrigo (four years her elder) to come along with her to the country of the Moors. Hoping to beg their way for the love of God that they might be beheaded, they were stopped by their parents. Since the saint felt it was impossible to become a martyr at the time Teresa and Rodrigo set out to build hermitages by piling up small stones on top of each other.  After some time the stones fell down and they soon gave up their intent to become hermits too.

God had given her in the stage of early youth the great devotion of prayer, especially the Rosary to which her mother had a great devotion. She would have great delight in playing with the other children and building of monasteries as if they were nuns. Teresa wished to be a nun though not so much a martyr or hermit. When the saint was a little less than twelve years of age. After the loss of her mother she went in a state of affliction to an image of Our Lady of Charity, and with many tears, implored her to be the saint’s mother. Teresa began to make much of dress to wish to please others by appearance. She took pains with her hands and hair, and used perfumes and all other vanities within reach. In 1531, she was taken by her father (who worried about her vanity) to the Augustinian monastery of Our Lady of Grace. For the first eight days she suffered excessively but more from the suspicion that her vanity was known than from being at the monastery. For the saint was very weary of herself and though she offended God, Teresa never ceased from fearing our great Lord and contrived to go to Confession instantly. She was very uncomfortable but much more accepting of the monastery compared to her father’s house. After a length of time the nuns became pleased with her, for our Lord had given her the talent of pleasing every human figure she approached. At the time, Teresa did not want to become a nun   but she was exuberantly pleased with these good and holy Nuns who she thought very highly of. Like all good saints she was tempted by the devil but this did not stop her, for soon after she returned to the good and saintly deeds of her childhood.  

There was one person with whom Teresa had a conversation who thought she would do well in the estate of holy matrimony. And it is said that she had a yearning for marriage at the time of her life. The saint lived in the monastery for a year and a half. She began to say many vocal prayers and to ask all the Nuns to pray for her so that she would go into a state wherein she was to serve God. At the end of her stay, Teresa had a greater inclination to be a nun, yet not in that house on account of certain devotional practices which the saint thought over-stressing. She also had a great friend, Juana Suarez, in another monastery. And this made her resolve if she was to be a nun, she would in the house where her friend lived.

In 1532 she returned home to regain her health and stayed with her sister. Reading the letters of Saint Jerome led her to the decision to enter a convent but her father refused to give her his consent. She decided to run away along with one of her brothers to receive her habit. On November 2nd she entered the Carmelite monastery of the Incarnation at Avila and her father resigned himself to this development. The following year she received the habit and began wholeheartedly to give herself to prayer and penance. Shortly after her profession she became seriously ill and failed to respond to medical treatment. As a last resort her father took her to Becedas, a small village to seek the help of a woman healer famous throughout Castile. But her health did not improve. Leaving Becedas in the fall of 1538 she stayed in Hortigosa at the home of her uncle Pedro De Cepeda. Instead of regaining her health, Teresa grew even more ill and her father brought her back to Avila in July 1539. On August fifteenth she fell into a coma so profound that she was thought to be dead.  After four days she revived, but her legs were paralyzed for three years.

After her cure, which she attributed to Saint Joseph, she entered a period of mediocrity in her spiritual life but she did not give up praying. During this stage, which lasted eighteen years, she had transitory mystical experiences. She was held back by a strong desire to be appreciated by others, but this finally left her in an experience of conversion in the presence of an image of “The Sorely Wounded Christ.” This conversion dislodged the egoism that hindered her spiritual development. Thus at the age of 39, she began to enjoy a vivid experience of God’s presence within her. When Teresa was 40 years old she began to have visionary experiences.

After several of these she started to think of a new monastery in which the original Carmelite ideal could be followed. She began to discuss her idea with others and at the instruction of her confessor, she began to write about her spiritual life and how it had led her to a goal of reform. In 1562 Teresa founded her first  monastery,  St. Joseph, In Avila. For the next 20 years she traveled throughout Spain, establishing foundations both for nuns and friars. As the monasteries got farther apart. Teresa began to write down the spiritual directions that she would have given orally if all of her Nuns were in one place. She wrote The Way Of Perfection in about 1566 to tell the nuns how to reach their goal. She wrote The Interior Castle by 1580 to tell them about contemplative prayer. She wrote foundations to remember the early history of their order. She also wrote meditations, prayers, hymns for her nuns, the Carmelite friars, and to the clerics and laity who were benefactors. She wrote thousands of letters of which there are over 450 extant. Because she was a visionary during the time of the inquisition, all of these writings were carefully read by others. The result was that, in her lifetime, her wok became well known far beyond the world of her monasteries.

Teresa greeted the end of her years of suffering with overflowing thanks. On the morning of the feast of Saint Francis, immersed in prayer, happy and smiling; she went out of this world into eternal life in the arms of our Lord.

Why I Chose Saint Teresa Of Avila For My Patron Saint?

I chose this great and holy saint for several reasons:

1. Her feast day is October 15 which is my birthday.

2. She uses words I would use.

3. I love her inspiring quotes. This one of my favorites:

“Accustom continually to make acts of love, for they enkindle and melt the soul.”

4. She is known as the Doctor of Prayer.  She is a great example for deepening my prayer life.

5. She gives me a reason that there is hope for great sinners and that I can still become a saint and repent.

6. She shows such grace and reverence to our Lord which I want more than ever now.

7.  I love her writings and I want to write like that; with such meaning and visibility.

Holy Thursday (The Last Supper)

          The Last Supper straight from the Bible

When the day of the Feast of Unleavened Bread arrived, the day for sacrificing the Passover lamb,

he sent out Peter and John, instructing them, "Go and make preparations for us to eat the Passover."

They asked him, "Where do you want us to make the preparations?"

And he answered them, "When you go into the city, a man will meet you carrying a jar of water. Follow him into the house that he enters

and say to the master of the house, 'The teacher says to you, "Where is the guest room where I may eat the Passover with my disciples?"'

He will show you a large upper room that is furnished. Make the preparations there."

Then they went off and found everything exactly as he had told them, and there they prepared the Passover.

When the hour came, he took his place at table with the apostles.

            He said to them, "I have eagerly desired to eat this Passover with

           you before I suffer,for, I tell you, I shall not eat it (again)

           until there is fulfillment in the kingdom of God."

Then he took a cup, gave thanks, and said, "Take this and share it among yourselves;

for I tell you (that) from this time on I shall not drink of the fruit of the vine until the kingdom of God comes."

 Then he took the bread, said the blessing, broke it, and gave it to them, saying, "This is my body, which will be given for you; do this in memory of me."

And likewise the cup after they had eaten, saying, "This cup is the new covenant in my blood, which will be shed for you. Luke 22:7-20  

This the institution of our lord's sacrifice done every day over and over again all the time all over the world. 

Happy Holy Thursday everyone!

The Eight Promises of Saint Joseph

                                                          The Feasts of St. Joseph

The primary feast of St. Joseph is March 19 because it is believed that his death occurred on that date.

This feast was fixed in the 15th century and was extended to the whole Church by Pope Gregory XV in 1621.

On the Feast of the Immaculate Conception, 1870, Pope Pius IX ordered that St. Joseph's feast day was to be a double of the first class.

Holy Mother Church dedicates the entire month of March to St. Joseph, as well as the First Wednesdays

May 1 was established as the Feast of St. Joseph the Workman by Pope Pius XII in 1955, chosen to coincide with Labor days in many nations. In addition there were two other feasts no longer on the official calendar.

The Eight Promises of St. Joseph

1. God will grant special graces to those that do not know me, to have a great devotion to me.
2. God will bless all who are married and the blessing in their family will be without limit.
3. Those married and without children will be blessed with offspring.
4. God will give special graces to be delivered from temptations and the attacks of the devil.
5. They shall have a good and happy death.
6. They shall overcome their trials and tribulations.
7. God shall grant them immediate help when they invoke my intercession, for the demons have extreme dread of the invocation of my name.
8. For all those who embrace a St. Joseph cenacle, they shall obtain a more fervent love for Jesus and a true devotion to Most Holy Mary.

Youth 2000 Retreat

Yesterday Jason,the Youth Minister, and Fifteen to Twenty Teens including I went to a Youth 2000 Retreat.

*NOTE* the retreat lasted from Friday evening to Sunday afternoon.We only went up there for Saturday ONLY.Also we were required to go for Confirmation (60 days away I CAN'T WAIT!).

Anyway let's cut to the chase we left around 7:00ish not to mention that there was only Five or Six people were there when I GOT THERE AT 7:00AM.Soon after the rest of them showed up Figures.We got there around 8:30AM.Throughout the day we listened to talks and we broke up into small groups of ten at least for lunch we had a YOUTH STAPLE "PIZZA" for Dinner chicken sandwiches donated from Chickfila probably because the owner is Christian.In the gym they had the Blessed Sacrament in the presence of us all along with Music blaring from loud speakers most of the time there was Religious all over the place of course the Franciscan Friars Of The Renewal who ran it all,The Franciscan Sisters and two other orders of sisters which I forgot along with priests who were hearing confessions during the whole Retreat

The part I hated the most was when every one was Swaying back and forth with their arms around each other like they were hugging.I didn't want to do it but two Chinese guys pulled me in and I could not get away partly because they had such a tight grip on me.If you know me very well then you will understand why I was uncomfortable. I think Jason was uncomfortable too but I think his little friend was enjoying it more than him he knows what I mean.

I was stressed out,in immense pain and dazed Mentally and Physically I think it shows since people ask me how I am doing lately more than often since I have had hell on earth this weekend.

The only things I liked was the Eucharistic Adoration even though I think they could have done with out with the Music.WHATEVER HAPPENED TO PURE SILENCE? after all that is how God speaks to us IN PURE SILENCE.I guess I am just boring. Also I got to see Bishop Vann which I loved we talked for a  good five minutes.Even though I regret not showing Bill proof that he did give me a letter. I hope to see Bishop Vann at Confirmation and at my house he asked himself if he could come over and I can't wait!

I if I could sum it up to one compound word it would be "CATTLE DRIVE" I pretty much felt like a cow the way they moved us around with all the commotion.
