INTRODUCTION TO MAY ROSARY

My brothers and sisters, few days from now we shall be entering the month of the rosary: May.

*WHY MAY ROSARY?*

The apparitions of
 gives us the answer to this question.
 The first appearance of our Lady(Mary) to the three prominent children of Fatima: *Francisco, Lucy and Jacinta* took place in May. At the event of the apparition, Mother Mary entreated the children to come to the same venue and pray for world peace, for the liberation of the souls of those souls in purgatory, for the forgiveness of sins, etc
Some Catholics believe that the season of the rosary starts from May and ends in October since October was the last month of the apparition. Due to this they pray the rosary even when May is over.

WHAT ARE WE EXPECTED TO DO IN MAY?
In the course of the recitation of the rosary, we are expected to commune with our mother with all sincerity of heart, with our minds gaze on heaven and the mysteries of each day, with our souls and bodies  consecrated to her Immaculate Heart. Our intentions are to be lifted up like incense before our Lord.
Teach others about the rosary and perform acts of charity most this season as it was done in Lent in order to obtain graces from her intercession.


During the season, I shall journey with you from day one of recitation to the last day. We shall be learning and revising some teachings on Mary and other doctrines of the Church.
 The rosary is a tool against evil. At the recitation of the Holy Rosary, Satan and all other evil spirits flee. As Jesus Came to us through Mary, so are we going to Jesus through her.

“The rosary is a treasure of graces”
( Pope Paul V)

“The rosary is a devout form of union with God, and always has a most uplifting effect on the soul”
(Bl Pope John XXlll)

“The rosary is a divine connection between the heart of man and the mercy of God.”
(Edmund Elorm Ackuaku)

“The rosary is a broom that sweeps away evil and restores peace”
(Edmund Elorm Ackuaku)

May we all stay under the divine assistance of our Lord as we pray .........
Hail Mary .. .......


Amen.

THE SOLEMNITY OF THE MOST HOLY BODY AND BLOOD OF CHRIST, CORPUS CHRISTI (YEAR A)

1st Reading               Deuteronomy 8:2–3, 14b–16a Psalm                          147:12–15, 19–20 (R. v.12) R:// "Praise the Lord, Jerusalem" 2nd Reading             1 Corinthians 10:16–17 Gospel                         John 6:51–58 THE FOOD THAT BECOMES A HOME Friends, Pax et Bonum! Today is the Solemnity of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ, Corpus Christi. Today is also the very first month of June. June, traditionally, is dedicated to devotion to the Sacred Heart of Jesus.  Let us focus on the readings. We might expect the readings on this day to be full of rubrics about bread and wine, explicit instructions about the Eucharist, and clear explanations of what is happening on the Altar. However, the readings give us a hunger test in the desert in the first reading, a one-sentence argu...

11TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME (YEAR A)

1st Reading                 Exodus 19: 2-6a Psalm                            100:1-2, 3, 5 (R. 3c) R:// "We are his people, the sheep of his flock"  2nd Reading              Romans 5: 6-11 Gospel                         Matthew 9:36-10:8 ALWAYS DISPENSE GRACE Friends, Peace and Goodness! Today is the 11th Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year A). As usual, we have three sets of readings. We shall focus on all three readings with one detail each from the three readings. The first reading is from Exodus 19:2-6a, the second reading is from Romans 5:6-11 and the Gospel passage is from Matthew 9:36-10:8. Let us dive quickly into them. The first reading, from Exodus 19: 2-6a situates Israel within the desert. Israel just left Egypt two months earlier. After the Red Sea incident, they entered th...

THE SOLEMNITY OF THE MOST HOLY TRINITY SUNDAY (YEAR A)

  1st Reading             Exodus 34:4-6, 8-9 Psalm                        Daniel 3:52, 53, 54, 55, 56 (R. 52b)   R:// "Glory and praise for ever!" 2nd Reading            2 Corinthians 13:11-13 Gospel                       John 3:16-18 TRUE GOD Friends, Pax et Bonum! Today is Holy Trinity Sunday. Today, we celebrate the Divine Community. However, when we open the Scriptures, the first reading, from Exodus 34: 4-6, 8-9, takes us back to Mount Sinai. There is a difficulty because the text of the first reading contains no formal language about the Three Persons in One God. It explicitly speaks about God's oneness. I want to suggest that there is a key to unlocking what is Trinitarian about today's first reading.  The text of the first reading looks relatively short but dense. Let us attempt to unpack...
