Truly a beautiful message. The Love that our Blessed Mother Mary gives us and pours out for us , directly links us to her most Divine Son, Jesus Christ. And in prostrating ourselves to the love of God , we are able to forgive those who trespass us as well as learn to repent for our own personal trespasses.

Blessed Mother, Oh Mother Mary, Mother of Perpetual Help send forth thy love and gentle prayers to us, poor sinners who have recourse to thee.

Blessed Mother of Perpetual Help, whisper to thy divine son Jesus Christ and beg him of our forgiveness. Assist us also, Dearest Mother, in our necessities. We ask this of you and in your divine Son, Jesus Christ. Amen.


Thank You, Dearest Mother. May our requests be answered accordingly to the benefit of our eternal soul.

Divine Mercy    Minute Meditations
In Scripture when Christ tells us about “the unforgivable sin,” it means the sin we don’t ask forgiveness for, that pride is the sin against the Holy Spirit, not allowing God to forgive.

Beacon of Christ    Minute Meditations
On a cold night it’s a good idea to stay near the fire. When our faith cools it’s a better idea to stick to the warmth of Christ’s presence. One of the reasons for adoration of the Eucharist is that the experience fires up our love for Jesus. Instead of being detached and dull Catholics, we are on fire with Christ.
