Be there for the people, even if outside 'hours'

The Holy Father likewise reminded priests that they are not 'employees' following 'timetables,' and instead, must be there when the people need them.

"In this, I ask you, please beware of settling. Don't settle, don't settle. Sometimes the modern world brings us timetables, 'Father, can you hear my confession? 'No, the timetable is from such and such an hour.' Please, people first, then the timetable, don't become 'employees' of the sacred. That is the danger of this culture, review your dedication to people, your openness of heart."

The Holy Father exhorted them to pray, with simple and familiar words, fraternally welcome others, and persevere in their work.

"Do not spare yourselves," he said.

Here's a prayer for the holy souls in purgatory, including the souls of priests:

"Eternal rest grant unto them, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon them. May the souls of the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen."

"Dear Lord, in the quiet moments of my heart, I come before You with a prayer for the souls in purgatory, particularly the souls of the priests who dedicated their lives in service to Your Church.

Heavenly Father, I entrust these beloved departed souls into Your infinite mercy. May Your divine light illuminate their path and lead them to the eternal joy of Your presence. Grant them the peace that surpasses all understanding and the rest that comes from being in Your loving embrace.

Lord, I offer my gratitude for the priests who, through their ministry, guided and nourished our spiritual lives. May the fruits of their labor be a testament to Your grace and love. As they journey through purification, shower them with Your mercy and grant them the fullness of Your forgiveness.

In this moment of prayer, I also remember [mention specific names or intentions], asking for Your comfort and solace to be poured upon their grieving hearts. May Your healing touch bring peace to those who mourn and strength to face the days ahead.

O God, in Your boundless compassion, hear my heartfelt supplications for these souls. Let the angels and saints welcome them into Your heavenly kingdom, and may their intercession aid in the purification of those still in purgatory.

Lord, as we remember those who have gone before us, help us to live our lives in accordance with Your will, seeking holiness and spreading Your love. May our actions be a testament to the faith passed down by those who have gone ahead.

I offer this prayer in the name of Your Son, Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. Amen.

✝️🙏4 POWERFUL MARIAN PRAYERS 🙏✝️

❤️‍🔥 Our Lady of Fatima, today we pray for your Son to come to our aid and end the suffering and wars throughout the world. Help us to be like the children at Fatima; loving, trusting and faithful. May we pray to bring peace to our own world in our own small way by choosing to love and trust in the Lord.

❤️‍🔥 “Dearest Lady of Guadalupe, fruitful Mother of Holiness, teach me your ways of gentleness and strength. Hear my prayer offered with deepfelt confidence to beg this favor…. O Mary, conceived without sin, I come to your throne of grace to share the fervent devotion of your faithful Mexican children who call to you under the glorious Aztec title of “Guadalupe” the virgin who crushed the serpent. Queen of Martyrs, whose Immaculate heart was pierced by seven wounds of grief, help me to walk valiantly amid the sharp thorns thrown across my pathway. Queen of Apostles aid me to win souls for the Sacred Heart of my Savior. I plead this through the merits of your merciful Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ.

❤️‍🔥Remember, dear Lady of La Salette, true Mother of Sorrows, the tears which thou didst shed for me on Calvary; be mindful also of the unceasing care which thou dost exercise to shield me from the justice of God; and consider whether thou canst now abandon thy child, for whom thou hast done so much. Inspired by this consoling thought, I come to cast myself at thy feet, in spite of my infidelity and ingratitude. Reject not my prayer, O Virgin of reconciliation, convert me, obtain for me the grace to love Jesus Christ above all things and to console thee too by living a holy life, in order that one day I may be able to see thee in Heaven. Amen.

❤️‍🔥 O glorious Mother of God, so powerful under your special title of Our Lady of Lourdes, to you we raise our hearts and hands to implore your powerful intercession in obtaining from the gracious heart of Jesus all the helps and graces necessary for our spiritual and temporal welfare and for the special favor we so earnestly seek. Amen

I ♥ YOU, BLESSED VIRGIN MARY, MY MOTHER 🙏

✝️Our Duties Towards Our Guardian Angels✝️

In the words of St. Ambrose: "We should pray to the angel who is given us as a Guardian," and St. Bernard justly reminds us of the duties we owe our Guardian Angel: "Reverence for his presence, devotion for his benevolence, confidence in his care. Always remember that you are in the presence of your Guardian Angel," he exhorts his disciples. "In whatever place you may be, in whatever secret recess you may hide, think of your Guardian Angel. Never do in the presence of your angel what you would not do in my presence."
"The great dignity and sanctity of your holy angels makes the duty of reverence an indispensable one for us. Before the great ones of earth, men are very modest and respectful; yet their dignity is incomparable less than that of the lowest of the angels. Therefore we should always conduct ourselves piously and modestly before our holy angel, refraining from every word, gesture or action which could displease or grieve our heavenly friend and guide. This continued remembrance of the presence of our holy angel is also an excellent means of overcoming temptation.

✝️🙏"Do not do anything without signing yourself with the sign of the Cross! 🙏✝️

🔥When you depart on a journey,
🔥when you begin your work,
🔥 when you go to study,
🔥when you are alone,
🔥and when you are with other people,

✝️Seal yourself with the Holy Cross on your forehead, your body, your chest, your heart, your lips, your eyes, your ears. All of you should be sealed with the sign of Christ's victory over hell. Then you will no longer be afraid of charms, evil spirits, or sorcery, because these are dissolved by the power of the Cross like wax before fire and like dust before the wind."

✝️🙏BRING YOUR KIDS TO CHURCH!!!🔥

🔥Even if they're on the floor, it's probably because they need to play and/or a pacifier to stay calm.

🔥Even if you spend the entire time at the end of church service swinging from side to side and holding them.

🔥Even if your child is a turbine or a small hurricane.

🔥Take them to Mass: let them see you worship, let them see you pray and above all let them see you sing God’s praises.
Let them see you going to the priest to receive the Eucharist, they will probably follow and imitate you. If they don't see you doing these things and they don't learn from you, who will they learn them from?
Children, in fact, to a certain extent, listen to their parents with their ears but always listen to them with their eyes.

🔥If you don’t bring them, the world will teach them that it’s not a priority but one of many options.
🔥The world will pull them away from God, confuse them and misinform them that it’s enough to be “good”, but what goodness is the world talking about? But be sure, the world will not teach them who Jesus is to them and that He is alive in the Word and in the Bread of life.

IT’S SOMETHING ONLY YOU CAN TEACH THEM SO TAKE YOUR CHILDREN TO CHURCH!!!

✝️QUOTES FROM SAINTS: ON VISIT TO BLESSED SACRAMENT✝️

🔥The grace of adoration of Jesus in the Most Blessed Sacrament is given to everybody. (St. Peter Julian Eymard)

🔥Our Lord hears our prayers anywhere, but He has revealed to His servants that those who visit Him in the Eucharist will obtain a more abundant measure of grace. ( St. Alphonsus Liguori)

🔥It is impossible in human terms to exaggerate the importance of being in adoration before the Eucharist as often and for as long as our duties and state of life allow. (Fr. John Hardon)

🔥Do you want the Lord to give you many graces? Visit Him often. Do you want Him to give you few graces? Visit Him rarely. Do you want the devil to attack you? Visit Jesus rarely in the Blessed Sacrament. Do you want him to flee from you? Visit Jesus often! (St. John Bosco)

🔥Our Lord in the Blessed Sacrament has His hands full of graces and He is ready to bestow them on anyone who asks for them. (St. Peter of Alcantara).

🔥A Holy Hour in front of the Blessed Sacrament is worth more than a thousand years of human glory. (Padre Pio)

🔥Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament consoles a soul far beyond what the world can offer. (St. Alphonsus Ligouri)

🔥A Holy Hour of adoration testifies to the fact that the Jesus who died on the cross, is present in the Eucharist, and reigns in Heaven, are identical. (Pope Pius XII)

🔥Our Lord is hidden there in the Blessed Sacrament, waiting for us to come and visit Him, and make our requests to Him. (St. John Vianney)

🔥I understand that, each time we contemplate with desire and devotion the Host in which is hidden Christ's Eucharistic Body, we increase our merits in heaven and secures special joys to be ours later in the beatific vision of God. (St. Gertrude)

ANG SAKRAMENTO NG KUMPISAL AY DAPAT BUKAS ARAW-ARAW. 🙏 “Muling sinabi ni Jesus, “Sumainyo ang kapayapaan! Kung paanong isinugo ako ng Ama, isinusugo ko rin kayo.” Pagkatapos, sila'y hiningahan niya at sinabi, “Tanggapin ninyo ang Espiritu Santo. Kung patatawarin ninyo ang mga kasalanan ninuman ay pinatawad na ang mga iyon, subalit ang hindi ninyo patatawarin ay hindi nga pinatawad.” -Juan 20:21-23

Don't worry about the world and its affairs, don't let the future disturb you, leave it in God's hands; don't take an interest in earthly things, because they are a waste of time. Turn to God and in Him you will find peace, first here on earth and then in heaven.

St. Rafael Arnaiz Baron, letter to his parents, from La Trapa Monastery: April 1, 1934

Obedience and Blessings

Ephesians 6:1-3 emphasizes the importance of children obeying their parents "in the Lord." This obedience is not just a social norm but a moral imperative rooted in spiritual principles. The passage connects obedience to the commandment of honoring parents, highlighting its enduring relevance in Christian living.

The promise linked to obedience is significant: "that it may go well with you and that you may enjoy long life on the earth" (Ephesians 6:3). This underscores the idea that honoring parents is not just a duty but brings blessings, aligning with the biblical principle of reaping what one sows.

It emphasizes the integration of faith into family life, aligning actions with Christian teachings. Ephesians 6:1-3 succinctly guides believers on the spiritual significance of obedience, emphasizing blessings associated with living in accordance with God's principles.
