Give Him Your Heart

Pope Benedict XVI knocked down; and The Moral of The Story is...?

JMJ/AMDG
"The Lord has turned our sunsets into sunrise."
-St. Clement

...to get right back up, proceed with God's holy work, and make no mention or give attention to being knocked down by anyone or anything of this earth.

"Keep on truckin', faithful!"

A Blessed & Holy Christmas celebrating

The Holy Birth of our Lord & Saviour, Jesus, The Christ.

Woman Knocks Down Pope at Christmas Eve Mass

Christmas Eve Urgent Plea!

†

JMJ/AMDG

2 Esdras 5:5 - And now our flesh is as the flesh of our brethren: and our children as their children. Behold we bring into bondage our sons and our daughters, and some of our daughters are bondwomen already, neither have we wherewith to redeem them, and our fields and our vineyards other men possess.

How much more insult can The Son of God take, before His right arm will fall? This "Presidency" will go down in history as the darkest period in our once great nation: to vote on the bogus "Health Care" Bill that threatens the lives of all Americans, in particular, the wide-scale promotion and funding of abortion and the evil of euthanasia, which will be decided as just one of the tentacles of 'government-take-over=government-control'.

The insult? Twofold:

The "takeover/control" of our living and dying, as well as forcing us to fund these and other evils;
Pushing this "bill" on The Eve of The Birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus The Christ.

If you are a believer; pray and continue to pray for an end to the evils of the atrocities that will be wielded from our own "leaders", who are in fact, dictators and oppressors.

If you are not a believer and follower of Jesus Christ and his one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church - you'd better get down on your knees this Eve of His Holy Birth and ask Him to put Truth, Love, and Faith in your heart, sent by The Holy Ghost, as The Father Wills.

If this seems like much, simply seek out a Traditional (not modern!) Catholic priest who will help you - that's what they're there for - here are a few:

Traditional Latin-Roman Catholic priest
Ukrainian Catholic priest
Maronite Catholic priest
Melkite Catholic priest

They are NOT ALL predators - that excuse for not being Catholic is worn-out and getting old! There are so many more good and holy clergy who will help you; and we need you to help us pray for the conversion of those who are bad, and for more good priests. Contact me if I can be of some assistance; I am praying for yours and all souls!

We need your prayers, and we all need to save souls by working as God's instruments.

Get busy - there's no better time than The Eve of Christ's Birth.

Holy Family, Ora Pro Nobis!

It Isn't A Baby!

†

JMJ/AMDG

Ten fingers, Ten toes
She's laughter and teardrops
So small and brand new
And amazingly angelic
She's sent to bless you
She's one special Baby
The best of life's treasure
And will grant and bless you
Many hours of great pleasure.
Author Unknown

It Isn't A Baby!

It isn't a baby! Just some tissue that swells;

A growth, or a lump, or a mass of dead cells.

An unwanted condition, like a wart or a mole;

To be burned off or cut out - no body, no soul!

How can it be living? How could it feel pain?

It can't speak, see, or think, 'cause it's only a membrane.

A cancer, a lesion, some small, nasty thing;

Like a cyst or a tumor that requires surgery.

What's all the commotion? Why all of the fuss?

It's only a sac, full of nothing but puss!

So what if I hack, chop, or stick it, so what?!

After all, it's my body! So stop riding my butt!

Don't need another burden, no, nothing to raise;

I've got more than my share of bills to be paid.

Who needs to be laden with a mouth to be fed?

Got to think of myself! Not some unwelcome dread.

Why should I have to live with a mistake that I made

for the rest of may life - that's not fair! I'm no maid!

Just one night of fun, that's all that it took,

to be stuck with a sucker: fun-robber! a crook!

If I have it aborted, I'll be free from the blob;

Won't have to be tied by a chain to that hob!

Won't give up my freedom, oh no, Sir! not me!

I reject any and all responsibility.

And if it survives after failed attempt,
I'll just let them kill it, won't look; be exempt
From that bloody, gross sight, from upsetting recall -
Then I'll walk away happy, no regrets; none at all.

Tomorrow, you ask? I'll be okay then, too;
I've got plans for myself! Lots of things I must do:
Got a job I won't leave, and a future to enjoy;
Won't ever know if it was a girl or a boy...

I guess I'll just put it right out of my mind,
I'll buy myself something, relax, and unwind
with a drink and a night out with friends who are fine
with my "choice" as it were; after all, it was mine!

They told me I'd soon feel different, those folks:
Those 'Pro-Lifers' with signs, 'Jesus lovers', those jokes!
They're not me, they don't know who I am or my dreams;
They can't tell me how I'll feel, no matter how bad it seems!

And where was their God, where was He when I fell?
Does this mean their kind Jesus will send me to Hell?
I don't believe in a God who would cause me such suffering and pain,
To be burdened in this life, and forever in flame!

So I think that there is none; no God, anyway -
No consequences owed for my action today.
There was no thunder booming, no lightening above;
No, nothing happened when he slipped on the glove.

The kind understanding they showed me today,
When those nice people sliced, slashed, my baby away:
They knew what I needed, God didn't show up!
Where was he if He really existed, GROW UP!

And if I do cry tomorrow, that won't be so bad;
It's part of the process, of cutting the trad.
It's the "medical procedure", expected as planned -
No need for concern; no, no one is damned!

Yet, somehow I sense something quick setting in,
Some dark cloud of conscience, some guilt from within;
Could it be I was wrong, and indeed was a sin
To have butchered my baby, a real baby, my kin?

It isn't a baby, it isn't a sin!
I'll just walk away and forget where I've been.
I'll stay in denial, and with all of my might,
I won't let regret in to fill me with fright.

But, if it isn't a baby, then why am I sad?
Though I choose not to show it, I'm feeling real bad!
What if there is a God, would He 'choose' to forgive?
Could this 'Jesus' still love me, after the thing that I did!?

"It Isn't A Baby", they told me in there,
"You've done the right thing, now, don't give it a care!"
But I think they were right, Those 'Pro-Lifers' on the street;
They told me I'd regret killing those quivering, little feet -
And those tiny, sweet fingers, that cute little nose;
so helpless, and needing her Mommy to hold
Her and care for her, keeping her safe, warm, and loved -
'stead of letting that awful butcher slip on his glove.

Pope Pius XII Declared Venerable

An Open Letter To Mr. Isaac Herzog

†

JMJ

Mr. Herzog,

Your insistence that Pope Benedict XVI freeze the process for sainthood regarding Pope Pius XII, is in itself, unacceptable to Catholics. As for myself, a devoted Catholic, I cannot see why or how you and other leaders and politicians of Israel, including any Jewish people with similar sentiments, feel you have any say whatsoever in the workings and Faith of The Holy Catholic Catholic Church. Case in point: the cause for sainthood regarding Pope Pius XII, Eugenio Paceli, who hid and cared for countless Jewish people and other refugees, since The Holocaust was indeed a heinous thing, and Pius only had love for all who were being persecuted, not only Jewish people, but others, too, who also made up those being persecuted in said Holocaust.

Even one of your own Jewish leaders, The Chief Rabbi of Rome at that time, Israel Zolli, converted to Catholicism, due to his own previous consideration of the Faith before World War II, and ultimately, converted after witnessing the fine Catholic example of Pope Pius XII, Eugenio Pacelli, who gave sanctuary to many, many Jews and their children quietly, as not to arouse attention from the Nazis. Dr. Zolli took the Christian name, Eugenio, first because he already had a sincere attraction to The Catholic Faith, and secondly, in appreciating for The Pope being a fine example of Christian love and charity to those who were being persecuted. Perhaps that is what you are really objecting to: the fact that one of your own high-profile Jewish leaders recognized the sainted qualities and actions of a Pope you wrongly accuse of not doing enough for your people. There were many other people being persecuted during that holocaust: especially Polish Catholics, who were the first and most cruelly hit, along with Polish Jews and still others. The world knows this was not only a Jewish persecution: it was the tool of a madman, Adolph Hitler, who hated many people for many reasons of his own, and Pope Pius XII recognized the needs of all people who needed help and liberation from Hitler's insane cruelty. That is why Dr. Zolli adopted his name, Eugenio, to show the world what Christian example he chose to honor and follow after deciding to convert to The Catholic Faith.

Know this, Mr. Herzog: I am not anti-semetic; that old cry is as worn as the hills, regarding Catholics and their love for The Jews and all people. I am a Catholic, who prays for all people: Jews, Moslems, Protestants, Aetheists, Poles, Lebanese, Chinese, etc. - all peoples to enter Heaven one day on God's Terms, and not their own resistance to the love and Sacrifice of His Son, Jesus The Christ, Who was foretold in Scripture, as you well know, Who came, was crucified, died, buried, and rose on the third day to ultimately open The Gates of Heaven once closed by the sin of Adam, for many = those who would follow Him.

I am certain you, Sir, would not allow Catholics to interfere and dictate in Jewish religious matters; so how is it that you feel you can tell Pope Benedict XVI, a German present during those awful years himself, what to do and how to do it, regarding Pope Pius XII's impending Sainthood Declaration, or in any other Catholic affairs?

Remember also Saint Edith Stein and Saint Alphonse Rattisbone, who are also famous converts to Catholicism as well as becoming a nun and a priest respectively, both whom I am certain are praying for you and all peoples, out of Christian love for yours and their ultimate Salvation, which indeed is from The Jews: and His Name is Jesus, The Christ.

May The Christ-Child fill your heart with His Love and His Peace during this Season which is the celebration of His Holy Birth.

With Christian love, In the Name of our Lord and Savior, Jesus, the Christ,

Remembering St. Feehan's [Retired] Roman Catholic Church In Photos

†

JMJ/AMDG
Psalms 25:8 - I have loved, O Lord, the beauty of thy house;
and the place where thy glory dwelleth.

These are pictures my daughter took of the relocated St. Feehan's RC Church in Chili, NY, once home in the Diocese of Rochester, NY. The Church was originally built in 1854 and named St. Fechan's RC Church, then renamed in 1954 as St. Feehan's RC Church; only to be replaced by a new Church Building in 1957, renaming it St. Pius the Tenth, where it still operates today: novus ordo. This old church was rebuilt on the grounds of the Genessee Country Museum & Village in Mumford, NY, with it's altar and artifacts. The pews are not original, and you can read about it here.

I am trying to find information on Sts. Fechan and Feehan; until I do, enjoy these beautiful photos of a simple, country Church dedicated to Catholic Traditional and built by the sweat of farmers, so they could honor and worship Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, in reverence and dignity. Click on each for larger views:

Below are some of The Stations of The Cross; I am not sure, but I do not think these came from the original church - I will have to check and update this post when I find out:

Prayer For The Return of The Tridentine Latin Mass

Grant, we pray Almighty God,

that through the intercession of St. Joseph,

the peace, order, and beauty of The Tridentine Latin Mass

may be restored to our churches. Amen.

Thank you, Grace. Happy memories of The Holy Mass and our visits here at St. Feehan's Church.

"Health Care" To Be Passed on Christmas Eve?

†

JMJ/AMDG

"If they would rather die, . . . they had better do it, and decrease the surplus population."
"I will honor Christmas in my heart, and try to keep it all the year."
-Ebenezer Scrooge from A Christmas Carol, By Charles Dickens

The Nativity by Bernadino Luini

At least, that's what I heard last night while driving, on the Sean Hannity Radio Program: Senator Tom Coburn (R-OK) and Senator Tom DeMint (R-SC) were guest speakers via sattelite or some other long distance communique, and although I did turn it on after it already began, I definitely heard one of the Senators tell Sean that Harry Reid wants to force the Senate to vote yes on this "Obama HealthCare" bill on Christmas Eve.

The Eve of The Birth of Christ.

Not only would this 'heinous thing' be pushed for the evils it contains (and no one has even read it all, yet!), it is supposedly slated to be accomplished on The Sacred Holy Vigil of The Birth of our Lord and Savior, Jesus, The Christ: The Great Judge and King of Heaven and all.

Sacrilege: disrepectful, and unacceptable. Pray for this "bill" to be trashed and that it not defile the Eve of our Lod's Birth, whether it does or does not get passed, in either case. (And we pray it shall not pass!)

Pray very hard and honor your Savior by Holy Mass, Nativity Scenes for all to see, and sacrifices, so God will be pleased to have His Son honored and will intervene for the sake of souls: from tiny babes, to the elderly, and for people like Mr. Obama and Mr. Reid, who mock God because they obviously are on a dark path and cannot see Him.

Lord have mercy.

HEY, Teacher, Leave Those Kids Alone!

†
JMJ

Mark 9:41 - And whosoever shall scandalize one of these little ones that believe in me; it were better for him that a millstone were hanged around his neck, and he were cast into the sea.

IMHO: Schools, with few exceptions, are hazardous to the heath of our kids' faith, morals, mental stability, physical and emotional well-being; and their brains are filled with falsified historical, evolutionary, revolutionary, and climate propaganda, as well as immorality and tripe.

Do I sound harsh? Take a good look at what you child does, acts, says, walks, and thinks - what about his attitude? Is she respectful to you and others? Does she help around the house, or punch her siblings? What are they learning - sex-ed? homosexuality is to be tolerated and is even "cool"? abortion is a person's choice, and there is no God? i-tunes and cell phones? rock stations at their in-school parties? wearing sexually revealing, devilsh, and ugly rags as being acceptable for learning? can they read or write well? at all? spell? tell you to take a "bleeping yada" when you ask them for help around the house? who are their friends at school? their Teachers?

There's more - too much to list; but are we leaving them in the hands of strangers, some "seemingly very nice" people, who greet us on conference days with a smile, donning pricey, low-cut blouses, short skirts, jeans, and even sport jackets with a tie! They sit down with us to 'evaluate" our children, and tell us what we need to do with them. We listen, drool, and go home to implement what "Mr. or Miss Strange-teacher" told us to do.

It is a parent's right and duty to educate our children in the True Faith and all else in truth.

Obama wants Moms to go back to school, too! Sounds pretty good, eh?
But why? where? :

WHY: to break up families and keep them separated for more intense indoctinization with his anti-religious, anti-American, and deviate policies.

WHERE: not to Christendom College or even pagan Harvard Law School, but to "work schools" that will keep you working in jobs that will pay you just a little more than you might be earning now, and you, too, could even become a, "Mr. or Miss Strange-Teacher", otherwise known as, a "PT" = "Propaganda Teacher", yourself! That might pay a little more - but you'll have to pay most of it back with interest to your man, Obama, so you'll be working for his brand of oppression for a good, long time. And who knows? Maybe YOU, too, trained as one of his "PT's", can lead other children down the immoral and angry road to sin and misery!

And your kids? Whatever they are learning in school, you will have nothing to say, as opposed to the very little control you currently have over them and their welfare.

So, sharpen your pencils and pack your lunches - but you and your kids will do infinitely better to home school after your morning Rosary. Don't laugh; you haven't tried it. Where there's a will, there's a way - we are supposed to make sacrifices for our kids - not sacrifice our kids for ourselves!

Oh, and you can go back to school when and where YOU want, Moms - AFTER you take care of your kids. It's your right and theirs, too; they need you at home now, and mostly, they need you to teach them that Jesus Christ is their Lord and Savior, and HE IS HOPE FOR THE WORLD.

You won't get that at "BS Trade School for Moms" who don't want to stay home, or "Burger King Academy" for kids who are uneducated, faithless, angry, and don't even know why.

A Blessed and Holy Christmas without presents, x-boxes, or cell phones; rather, a Joyous Season full of HOPE in Jesus Christ, who was born, crucified, and rose on the third day, as His Sacrifice for us. The Peace of the Christ Child to you ALL. I Love you, and so does He.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year in The Name of the Lord.

Dad Barred from Taking Child to Church?

JMJ/AMDG

Isaias 19:20 - It shall be for a sign, and for a testimony to the Lord of hosts in the land of Egypt. For they shall cry to the Lord because of the oppressor, and he shall send them a Saviour and a defender to deliver them.

Luke 18:16 - But Jesus, calling them together, said: Suffer children to come to me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.

Matthew 16:27 - For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels: and then will he render to every man according to his works.

Matthew 18:11 - For the Son of man is come to save that which was lost.

Matthew 23:13 - But woe to you scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites; because you shut the kingdom of heaven against men, for you yourselves do not enter in; and those that are going in, you suffer not to enter.

†

So - what are we to make of these scripture passages?

If Jew, Muslem, Protestant, Aetheist, Buddhist, or any other peoples who do not follow Jesus the Christ as their Savior, and His holy Catholic Church through baptism as well as all the other Sacraments and teachings, they jeopardize their own Salvation, and the Salvation of their children.

As well - a nation that is pagan and rejects Christ and His Social Kingship, is indeed tyrannical and can only be moved to act unjustly against Catholics who repent and obey God The Son.

Catholics: Be 'Picky' About Where
You Get Your Catholic News...

"Truth must be sought at all costs, but separate isolated truths will not do. Truth is like life; it has to be taken on its entirety or not at all. . . . We must welcome truth even if it reproaches and inconveniences us -- even if it appears in the place where we thought it could not be found."
- Archbishop Fulton J. Sheen

...unless you are educating yourself on what the enemy is doing!

I have a problem even doing that sometimes - especially when it comes to my own "Diocesan Newspaper" - Lord have mercy!

DISCRIMINATION & INTOLERANCE:
Against Yet ANOTHER Catholic!

†

JMJ/AMDG

Leviticus 18:22 - Thou shalt not lie with mankind as with womankind,

because it is an abomination.

Another Catholic was fired for defending Traditional Marriage through a private email box, from his career as a journalist. His wife was also fired from her column just because she is married to him.

If "tolerance" is the new "law", then why are Catholics are being singled-out and discriminated against?

GEE - could it be that those who are either deviates or support them, simply cannot "tolerate" virtue and true values?

Could it be that they hate Catholics for following the Word of God and who peacefully say, "no" to impure and unholy practices, as in this case, homosexual behavior banned by God himself?

YEP.

UNFAIR TO CATHOLICS!

HEY! LOOKY - yet, another "mainstream newspaper" is responsible for supporting unacceptable practices and in this case, firing a good Catholic just for his right and proper religious conviction.

This validly married couple is also ill and the loss of income is reported to cause them undue hardship, as well. Yet, "mainstream newspapers" as well as other major corporations have poured big buck$ into promoting and supporting the deviate, homosexual lifestyle for more years than you might be surprised to learn - but the true winners here are Mr. & Mrs. Grard, who are suffering in defense of The Kingdom Of God - and will be rewarded in the next world, life eternal, for the injustice they now endure by being crucified as it were, in the name of Jesus Christ and His One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic church, which upholds God the Father's Command against the abomination of homosexual behavior.

May God shed His mercy on the "mainstream papers"!

The devil doesn't even realize how many souls like these he is responsible for helping to usher into Heaven! May God Bless the Grards, and bring us more good and holy people like them to be Catholic witness to others, and that no one, no corporation, government, or even the general populous, cannot sanitize evil practices by merely firing, arresting, fining, or punishing good Catholics in any way; they only bring God's Wrath upon themselves.

Genesis 9:7 - But increase you and multiply,

and go upon the earth, and fill it.

How much longer will it be before Americans, Canadians, and the entire fed-up planet gets out their Rosaries, prominently puts up their Nativity displays, and peacefully, but without wavering, take a stand against garbage like this, as well as the countless other immoral evils that are being 'dictated' to us!

People like Diane Francis, (oh, look: yet another newspaper editor!), and even "President" Obama, his administration and supporters, are foisting bloody evils upon us. Wake up! Pray for their conversion to the One, true Faith; and if God Wills otherwise, for their peaceful removal from power, and replace them all with 'good and faithful Catholics.

Everyone hates the Traditional Catholic Church; not because of bad clergy - but because it teaches TRUTH and takes self-sacrifice to live it out.

That's too bad - The True Faith is the only Way to eternal happiness in the next world; and for those like Francis and Obama who are forcing abortion, a one-child global policy, euthanasia, and so many other bloody sentences, there's an old saying:

"You can't get there, from here."
