May God's Blessings And Graces Shower Down Upon You And Your Family! In Spiritual Warfare, we must use Spiritual Weapons. Let us begin with small tactics, and then let us concentrate on the bigger tactics. Keep in mind that prayer, fasting and almsgiving are three excellent and traditional tactics for everyone to employ, and there is strength in numbers. We want to increase the total number of people using these tactics!
1. SMALL TACTICS - Sacramentals: Buy sacramentals; get them blessed by a priest, and use them on your own person (wear blessed medals, crucifixes, and scapulars) and hide them in the posession of others. Then you must say some daily prayers for that person (depending upon which sacramental you employ).
Blessed Holy Water is excellent to sprinkle throughout every room of your house, on your roof, in your basement, at work, in your car, etc. Pray small prayers as the holy water is used, and sprinkle it weekly. Once is not enough! Hide blessed Miraculous Medals within and around your home and your parish. Tell others (whom you can trust) that blessed medals have been placed, and please join us in praying for our parish to increase in holiness.
The Blessed Virgin Mary is the most powerful saint in heaven, and we all need the assistance and help of our Heavenly Mother! "Ask, and it shall be given you." (St. Mathew 7: 7) Employ the same tactics with many blessed exorcism medals of St. Benedict! The Agnus Dei Medal (a small heart shaped locket with wax from the paschal candle of the Vatican inside) is especially helpful protection against storms and destructive weather!
Call The Religious Art Company in Brooklyn, New York at 1-800-991-1211 for these sacramentals! When we use a scapular, please realize that we are associating ourselves with the particular religious order to which that scapular belongs: eg. Brown Scapular - Carmelites, Green Scapular - Daughters of Charity, Blue Scapular - Sisters of the Immaculate Conception, etc. Please pray the required prayers that accompany the proper use of each particular scapular!
The Green Scapular of the Immaculate Heart of Mary is the easiest, and one of the absolute best, scapulars to use, because its purpose is conversion and healing. THE WHOLE WORLD NEEDS REPENTANCE, CONVERSION AND HEALING! 2. MEDIUM TACTICS - Prayer Groups: Satan hates regular prayer at home, so make sure that you pray with and for your family every day! Morning Offerings, Guardian Angel Prayer, The Memorare, The Angelus, Mealtime Prayers, Chaplet of Divine Mercy, Daily Family Rosary, Night Time Prayers, Novenas, Litanies, Ejaculations, The Divine Praises etc. Weekly prayer groups that meet at home are a wonderful way to spiritually strengthen every individual involved!
Prayer changes things! Prayer turns hard hearts to the Lord! 3. LARGE TACTICS - Weekly Parish Programs: We wholeheartedly suggest these four weekly activities to spiritually strengthen every family, every parish, and the Universal Church - SIMULTANEOUSLY! We do not want churches to be locked and empty most of the time. We want all churches to be active centers of Catholic and Christian Family Life. These suggested activities are large group activities which employ Sacred Tradition, Sacred Scripture and Sacred Magisterial Teaching. This is a very balanced approach that leads to HOLINESS, because it has the firm foundation of enough PRAYER! 1. Sunday Morning Rosaries For Peace - If there is enough time between Masses, announce, "The Rosary For Peace" at about one half hour before Mass. At each decade announce, "Please join us in the Rosary For Peace" and others will join at each decade! This tactic will produce thousands and thousands of additional Rosaries prayed each week! 2. Dogma And Donuts - A Sunday morning After Mass activity which involves some prayer, refreshments and discussions of Catholic Dogma. 3. Theology Tea and Thee - A weeknight or weekend activity that involves some prayer, refreshments and discussions of Catholic Theology. (Do you see the pattern here?) 4. Weekly Family Nights - A weekend activity for the whole family (from great-grandparents to the youngest children). This combines one holy hour of prayer (children and teens take turns leading the decades) refreshments or dinner in the parish hall, and Bible/Catechism Open Book Quiz Games in a competitive game show format. These tactics will increase holiness in the lives of everyone involved, and they all strengthen the family, the parish and the Universal Church SIMULTANEOUSLY!
Please read the Catechism of the Catholic Church at Paragraph 2744, and use it in this effort. "The Battle Of Prayer" (2725 - 2745) is a beautiful and much needed section of the CCC at this time in Salvation History! THE FAMILY THAT PRAYS TOGETHER STAYS TOGETHER, AND THAT ALSO APPLIES TO THE PARISH AND TO THE CHURCH!
Please help us to stop the Satanic attacks on the family, on fatherhood, on motherhood, on childhood, on the priesthood and on the church. Unite In Prayer! Do not delay!!!

 WORLD YOUTH DAY 2002 TORONTO, CANADA
Pope John Paul II initiated WORLD YOUTH DAYS in 1984.
Pope John Paul II realized, that the poor catechesis of the youth left them completely vulnerable to the onslaught of worldy materialism and consumerism. Without good Catechesis, the young people would become easy victims of THE WORLD, THE FLESH, AND THE DEVIL!
Since the catechists and the bishops and priests were doing such a poor job of catechesis, the Pope decided to go to the children himself, so that he could teach them the truth, while they were in his presence, in large numbers, at WORLD YOUTH DAY. WOW!!! IT HAS BEEN A HUGE SUCCESS, and WORLD YOUTH DAYS are held every 2 years in different cities all over the world!
 Jesus loves little children.
Shouldn't we follow Jesus' holy example?
JESUS CHRIST SPENT TIME WITH CHILDREN! SHOULDN'T WE???
JESUS SAID, "SUFFER THE LITTLE CHILDREN, AND FORBID THEM NOT TO COME TO ME: FOR THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS FOR SUCH." (St. Mathew 19: 14)
THEREFORE: WE SHOULD ESTABLISH REGULARLY SCHEDULED "YOUTH DAYS" IN EVERY DIOCESE.
THEREFORE: WE SHOULD ESTABLISH WEEKLY FRIDAY FAMILY NIGHTS IN EVERY PARISH!
PLEASE ACTIVATE YOUR PARISH, AND MAKE YOUR PARISH THE CENTER OF CATHOLIC FAMILY LIFE THAT IT IS MEANT TO BE!
IF YOUR PARISH IS LOCKED AND EMPTY OVER 75% OF THE TIME, THEN THAT IS NOT A GOOD SIGN!
DO NOT BE A CATHOLIC PASSIVIST! BE AN ACTIVE CATHOLIC! PRAY WITH YOUR PARISH CHILDREN AT FRIDAY FAMILY NIGHTS!
 DON'T LEAVE JESUS ALONE IN HIS AGONY.
DON'T FALL ASLEEP IN THE GARDEN LIKE THE APOSTLES!
 THE RESURRECTION
RESURRECT YOUR SLEEPY PARISH FROM ITS STATE OF SLEEPY INACTIVITY!
EMPLOY ANY OF THE WEEKLY PROGRAMS AND ACTIVITIES THAT WE SUGGEST, AND YOU WILL EXPERIENCE PROFOUND INCREASED HOLINESS IN THE LIFE OF YOUR PARISH CHURCH! "For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour, Who will have all men to be saved, and to come to the knowledge of the truth." (1 Timothy 2: 3-4) THE FULLNESS OF TRUTH SUBSISTS IN THE HOLY ROMAN CATHOLIC CHURCH!
PRAYER CHANGES THINGS! WHEN WE WORK, WE WORK. WHEN WE PRAY, GOD WORKS! ALMIGHTY GOD IS WAITING FOR A HOLY ROSARY CRUSADE! WILL YOU HELP WITH THIS CRUSADE? |
