Power of Mothers' Prayer
Power of Mother’s Prayer…
Mothers, Never Stop Praying For Your Husbands And Children.
The moment a child is born, the mother is also born.
She never existed before.
The woman existed, but the mother, never. A mother is something absolutely new.
Mothers have an unfair advantage with the Lord.

Introduction
by the Celebrant
- Hope in a
New World
Some
parts of Scripture, like today's readings, speak of calamities and disasters as
signs of an old world decaying and Jesus coming in judgment. Today's television
and other media bring into our homes the disasters and violence and suffering
of the whole world; and people ask: where all this is leading us. These are
signs for us today that the world in which we live is decaying, but we should
not overlook the signs of hope too in a fairer and more unified world, the
crumbling of tyrannies on the right and the left. These are, like budding
branches on a tree, signs of hope in a new world that is growing, and in the
coming of God among us, his people. Let us celebrate this hope in this
eucharist.
Quotes 44 - Tomorrow
"The only limit to our realization of
tomorrow will be our doubts of today."
- Franklin D. Roosevelt
Quotes 43 - Every Task in Life
"I long to accomplish a great and noble
task, but it is my chief duty to
accomplish small tasks as if
they were great and noble."
- Helen Keller
Quotes 42 - Your Dreams
"Whatever you can do, or dream you
can begin it. Boldness has genius,
power and magic in it."
- Goethe

Pastor Rick Warren
Life & God – Rick Warren
Pastor Warren is the same person who prayed for President Obama on the day of the President’s swearing in. You will enjoy the new insights that Rick Warren has, with his wife now having cancer and him having ‘wealth’ from the book sales. This is an absolutely incredible short interview with Rick Warren, ‘Purpose Driven Life’ author and pastor of Saddleback Church in California. In the interview by Paul Bradshaw with Rick Warren, Rick said: People ask me, What is the purpose of life?
And I respond: In a nutshell, life is preparation for eternity. We were not made to last forever, and God wants us to be with Him in Heaven. One day my heart is going to stop, and that will be the end of my body– but not the end of me. I may live 60 to 100 years on earth, but I am going to spend trillions of years in eternity. This is the warm-up act – the dress rehearsal.32 Sunday B Nov 11 - Homilies

Introduction to the Celebration
Introduction to the Celebration
We can gather here because each of us has heard, in some way
or another, the divine invitation to become beloved daughters and son of the
Father. The Spirit has moved our hearts to set out to follow the Lord, and we
have started on a journey towards the Father in the way we live our lives.
However, as we gather today to celebrate this journey, we are also conscious
that we often fail to live life in accordance with this invitation. The gospel
recalls Jesus seeing a poor widow in the temple treasury and his way of looking
at this woman is a challenge to all of us who accept his invitation to follow
him.
