Theotokos Prayer Group 2022 - Seventh Sunday of Easter 29 May 2022

 

Come, Lord Jesus!

Come, Holy Spirit!

Apocalypse 22:12-14,16-17,20 ©

Come, Lord Jesus

I, John, heard a voice speaking to me: ‘Very soon now, I shall be with you again, bringing the reward to be given to every man according to what he deserves. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End. Happy are those who will have washed their robes clean, so that they will have the right to feed on the tree of life and can come through the gates into the city.’
  I, Jesus, have sent my angel to make these revelations to you for the sake of the churches. I am of David’s line, the root of David and the bright star of the morning.
  The Spirit and the Bride say, ‘Come.’ Let everyone who listens answer, ‘Come.’ Then let all who are thirsty come: all who want it may have the water of life, and have it free.
  The one who guarantees these revelations repeats his promise: I shall indeed be with you soon. Amen; come, Lord Jesus.

Come, Holy Spirit, fill the hearts of your faithful and kindle in them the fire of your love.

Send forth your Spirit and they shall be created. And you shall renew the face of the earth.

Let us pray:

O God, who by the light of the Holy Spirit, did instruct the hearts of the faithful, grant that by the same Holy Spirit we may be truly wise and ever rejoice in his consolations.

Through the same Christ Our Lord. Amen.

Intercessions

Gospel: John 14:23-29 ©

A peace the world cannot give is my gift to you

Jesus said to his disciples:
‘If anyone loves me he will keep my word,
and my Father will love him,
and we shall come to him and make our home with him.
Those who do not love me do not keep my words.
And my word is not my own:
it is the word of the one who sent me.
I have said these things to you while still with you;
but the Advocate, the Holy Spirit,
whom the Father will send in my name,
will teach you everything
and remind you of all I have said to you.
Peace I bequeath to you, my own peace I give you,
a peace the world cannot give,
this is my gift to you.
Do not let your hearts be troubled or afraid.
You heard me say: I am going away, and shall return.
If you loved me you would have been glad to know that I am going to the Father,
for the Father is greater than I.
I have told you this now before it happens,
so that when it does happen you may believe.’

Picture

A picture of Our Blessed Mother superimposed upon Jesus on His Cross, Our Mother feels the pain in her Heart that her Son Jesus is feeling.

“My children,
In my Immaculate Heart I felt the pain of my dying Son, just as Simeon foretold all those years ago, my little one’s make my Son’s wounds your own, especially the wound in His Heart for love of Mankind. Please offer up as a living sacrifice all the grief, hurt and pain that you may encounter in your lives along with all the joys and gifts you are given. Your praise, sacrifice, prayer, penance and fasting will make a difference to someone who may not believe, adore, hope or love my Son, and so enable them to turn to God and receive grace to believe, leading them to adore, hope and love my Son Jesus!
I love each of you as my true child and I will always lead you to my Son.
Mary your Mother."

Lord fill us with your Love, your Word, your Peace and your Spirit.

Gospel: John 10:27-30 ©

I know my sheep and they follow me

Jesus said:

‘The sheep that belong to me listen to my voice;

I know them and they follow me.

I give them eternal life;

they will never be lost

and no one will ever steal them from me.

The Father who gave them to me is greater than anyone,

and no one can steal from the Father.

The Father and I are one.’

Picture

Picture of Our Blessed Mother she collects from her Immaculate Heart a large orb of light, in it’s centre is the Rosary, on looking past the Rosary can be seen many people praying the Rosary, the more people join to pray the larger the orb of light becomes, then the light travels all around the Globe, dissipating the darkness and the gloom.

“Dear Children
I ask once again for you to pick up the Weapon of Prayer, My Most Holy Rosary. Pray my children from your hearts and graces of conversion will flow from my Immaculate Heart and so draw all men to my Son's Saving Blood. 

I ask you earnestly to pray for conversion for poor souls who disregard my pleas to turn to my Son Jesus, My little ones if you are faithful my graces will touch even the hardened of heart and especially those in your own families, be a good example for them. 

My dearest ones pray for all my Priest sons who are in such turmoil and under such burdens at this time, when you pray my cohort of Angels will surround them and protect them even more from the evil attacks of my adversary. 

Never have your prayers been of more importance than in these days, look at my Son on His Cross then you will disengage from the worldly pursuits thus enabling you to bring to my heart all in need of the Healing Blood of my Son. 

I leave you with the prayer of my heart which I pray, that you would by your prayers and sacrifice help me to bring souls to my Son who thirsts for them to be saved and so not be lost to Him.
I cast my Mantle of Protection upon you.
Your Mother Mary"

Personal Note 

Dear Friends, 

I just want to thank everyone for the cards, condolences and prayers since Ann passed away. I still haven't fully come to terms with her loss and am heart broken. 

I know she is no longer suffering and I am confident she is in Heaven and I will be with her again there. 

These last two months have at the same time gone quickly and dragged. 

I'm up and down a lot emotionally and spiritually. 

Please pray for me. 

Meeting again

With regard to Theotokos I did make enquiries of the Parish Rooms at St Mary's but no one is currently using them and it appears that the kitchen is closed and the boiler has not been serviced. I'm therefore not advocating a return to meeting together there at the present time. 

I'm not feeling up to moving things forward with the group at present but am more than happy to keep these bulletins going. If you have any prayer intentions, readings, words or information that you want to contribute please contact me. 

May Almighty God, The Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit bless you and keep you

Mary Mother of God, Theotokos, pray for us.

Gospel: John 21:1-19 After the meal Jesus said to Simon Peter, ‘Simon son of John, do you love me more than these others do?’ He answered, ‘Yes Lord, you know I love you.’ Jesus said to him, ‘Feed my lambs.’ A second time he said to him, ‘Simon son of John, do you love me?’ He replied, ‘Yes, Lord, you know I love you.’ Jesus said to him, ‘Look after my sheep.’ Then he said to him a third time, ‘Simon son of John, do you love me?’ Peter was upset that he asked him the third time, ‘Do you love me?’ and said, ‘Lord, you know everything; you know I love you.’ Jesus said to him, ‘Feed my sheep. Do we love the Lord?  Do we feed His lambs and His sheep?  Do we love one another?  Do we love our neighbour?  Come Holy Spirit of Love and create within us hearts of love first for you O Mighty and Eternal Trinity and then for one another. Our Lady of Medjugorje message Apr 25, 2022   "Dear children! I am looking at you and I see that you are lost. That is why I am calling all of you: return to God, return to prayer - and the Holy Spirit will fill you with His love which gives joy to the heart. Hope will grow in you, also for a better future, and you will become joyful witnesses of God's mercy in you and around you. Thank you for having responded to my call." Intercessions Lord pour out your Spirit of Love upon us.  Lord we continue to pray for Peace in Ukraine. Lord we pray for persecuted Christians throughout the World. Lord we pray for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit on all peoples and nations.
