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”

“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.

Today is the 24th Sunday in Ordinary Time (Year A). Let us launch into the readings.  Our first reading is from Sirach 27:30-28:7. We just have to first understand that we are reading from one of the Deuterocanonical books. Sirach was written in Hebrew around 180 BC by a Jewish scribe and teacher, called Jesus Ben Sirach. The Greek translation was produced by his grandson in 132 BC in Alexandria, Egypt. The book is rich in Wisdom and is often regarded as an elderly person giving pieces of advice ...

1st Reading                Isaiah 55: 6-9 Psalm                           145:2-3, 8-9, 17-18 (R. 18a) R:// "The Lord is near to all who call upon him" 2nd Reading              Philippians 1:20c-24, 27a Gospel                         Matthew 20: 1-16 CHOOSE TRUST OVER CONTRACT Friends, Peace and Goodness!

We shall settle on a detail in the first reading and two from the Gospel.  The first reading, from Isaiah 55: 6-9, falls within the second division, called "Deutero-Isaiah", at least by the popular scholarly division of the book of the prophet Isaiah. These are people in exile in Babylon being addressed. They had stopped ex...

15TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME — YEAR C

  1st Reading           Deut. 30:10-14 Resp. Psalm          Ps. 19:7.8.9.10 (R.8a) 2nd Reading         Col. 1:15-20 Gospel                    Luke 10: 25-37 A CHARITABLE HEART MAKES A LAW-ABIDING BEING Today is the 15th Sunday in Ordinary Time, and the Word of God invites us to reflect on the question of the Law and our obedience to it. It further calls us to a practical identification of who a neighbour is. The Gospel, from Luke 10: 25-37, is an eye opener in this regard.  As we reflect on the LAW, we need to take few things into consideration. Let us, first of all, bear in mind that our first reading is from Deuteronomy (Deut. 30:10-14). This is significant because, the LAW which is our focus for this Sunday is also a central theme in Deuteronomy. This book is fashioned around the LAW. Infact, it is the 5th book of the Hebrew Torah (Book of the LA...
