28th Week: Oct 14-19: Daily Reflections
Oct 14 Monday (St. Callistus I, Pope, Martyr) https://www.franciscanmedia.org/saint-callistus-i/ : Lk
11:29-32: 29 When the crowds were increasing, he began to say,
“This generation is an evil generation; it seeks a sign, but no sign shall be
given to it except the sign of Jonah. 30 For as Jonah became a sign to the
men of Nineveh, so will the Son of man be to this generation. 31 The queen of
the South will arise at the judgment with the men of this generation and
condemn them; for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of
Solomon, and behold, something greater than Solomon is here. 32 The men of Nineveh
will arise at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for they
repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold, something greater than Jonah is
here. USCCB reflections: https://youtu.be/Km3lgo0S6y4?list=PLpTzvCOJa7DD9TgXScDzmUNxVbbSBuOSi

Oct 7-12: 27th Week - Reflections
Oct 7 Monday: (Lk 10: 25-37) (Our Lady of the
Rosary)

video reflections: To be added Lk 1: 26-38: This feast was
established by Pope St. Pius V in thanksgiving for the victory at Lepanto, 7
Oct 1571, which stopped the Turkish invasion of Europe. Importance: The
word Rosary means “Crown of Roses” and each prayer in the Rosary is considered
a flower presented to Mary. It is called the “Breviary of the Common People”
and the “Psalms of the Illiterate.” The prayers we repeat are Biblical and
hence “inspired,” and the mysteries we meditate upon are taken from the lives
of Jesus and Mary. The “Our Father” is a prayer taught by Jesus himself.
The “Hail Mary” is also rooted in the Scriptures. Its first half echoes the
words of the Archangel Gabriel and those of Elizabeth, both addressed to Mary.
The third prayer — the “Glory be to the Father” — ancient in its wording,
surely reflects the unceasing prayer of adoration and praise found in the Book
of Revelation. The various events in the lives of Jesus and Mary on which we
meditate during the Rosary are expressions of the Paschal Mystery, that is, the
Life, Death and Resurrection of Jesus, in which Mary shared.
A PRIEST WHO STOLE 50 EUROS???
A couple invited a priest of their parish for dinner in their home. After the priest left, the woman said to her husband; " I think the priest has stolen the 50 EUROS that I kept on the table of which I had the intention to give him". Angrily her husband exclaimed; " if they are not pedophile, they are thieves. There is no need to invite him again. We shall from henceforth be attending Mass in another parish".
What Time Should You Sleep?
By James Pang
Is there a best time to sleep? There is a saying that sleeping early and waking up early is good for your health. How true is that? Is it alright to sleep late and wake up late?
