Alleluia, alleluia!
Blessings on the King who comes,
in the name of the Lord!
Peace in heaven
and glory in the highest heavens!
Alleluia!
Gospel Matthew 20:1-16
Why be envious because I am generous?
Jesus said to his disciples: ‘The kingdom of heaven is like a landowner going out at daybreak to hire workers for his vineyard. He made an agreement with the workers for one denarius a day, and sent them to his vineyard. Going out at about the third hour he saw others standing idle in the market place and said to them, “You go to my vineyard too and I will give you a fair wage.” So they went. At about the sixth hour and again at about the ninth hour, he went out and did the same. Then at about the eleventh hour he went out and found more men standing round, and he said to them, “Why have you been standing here idle all day?” “Because no one has hired us” they answered. He said to them, “You go into my vineyard too.” In the evening, the owner of the vineyard said to his bailiff, “Call the workers and pay them their wages, starting with the last arrivals and ending with the first.” So those who were hired at about the eleventh hour came forward and received one denarius each. When the first came, they expected to get more, but they too received one denarius each. They took it, but grumbled at the landowner. “The men who came last” they said “have done only one hour, and you have treated them the same as us, though we have done a heavy day’s work in all the heat.” He answered one of them and said, “My friend, I am not being unjust to you; did we not agree on one denarius? Take your earnings and go. I choose to pay the last comer as much as I pay you. Have I no right to do what I like with my own? Why be envious because I am generous?” Thus the last will be first, and the first, last.’
Notes from meeting on 19th September 2023
A Picture of Blessed Mother resplendent in gold.
She has in her arms her child Jesus, Our Mother lifts Him up and He holds out his little arms in welcome. The Child Jesus becomes full of light, so much so that His body can no longer be distinguished from the light. The light pulses and a small white lamb can be seen within the light, the lamb is spotless and without blemish, it is as though the Blessed Mother has become the surrounding Monstrance of her Son Jesus. Then gently the pulsing stops and Blessed Mother and Child recede back upwards.
"My dear little children.
My Son reaches out to each of you, He pours the light of His Love upon all who visit and reach out to Him, His Love pulses out upon you, He who is all Love all Purity calls to each of you to immolate your lives in Him, let your will be made holy by conforming your will to His Holy Will, then you will in time become within your heart and soul more perfected!
My little ones be careful of my adversary, he who sows pride and sin to bring my little ones down, turn to your Mother and I will always lead you to my Son who is all Holiness and all Love!
Pray my children for those who are led astray, pray that they would look to Jesus and be saved. Pray for my Son’s Church and all Religious, they are in need of your heartfelt and holy prayer, love conquers all, especially the Love of my Son’s Sacred Heart!
Mary, Mother of All."
Open your hearts to my love.
Open your hearts that you may Praise and Worship Me.
I knock on your hearts, open your hearts to My Love
Psalm 95
1 Come, let us sing for joy to the Lord;
let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation.
2 Let us come before him with thanksgiving
and extol him with music and song.
3 For the Lord is the great God,
the great King above all gods.
4 In his hand are the depths of the earth,
and the mountain peaks belong to him.
5 The sea is his, for he made it,
and his hands formed the dry land.
6 Come, let us bow down in worship,
let us kneel before the Lord our Maker;
7 for he is our God
and we are the people of his pasture,
the flock under his care.
Today, if only you would hear his voice,
8 “Do not harden your hearts as you did at Meribah,
as you did that day at Massah in the wilderness,
9 where your ancestors tested me;
they tried me, though they had seen what I did.
10 For forty years I was angry with that generation;
I said, ‘They are a people whose hearts go astray,
and they have not known my ways.’
11 So I declared on oath in my anger,
‘They shall never enter my rest.’”

Fundraiser.
Until the end of 2023 I am helping fundraise for the Alice House Hospice in Hartlepool, this facility cared for my wife Ann during her last month of illness before she passed away. The Hospice relies on donations to keep running so please be as generous as you are able.
So far I have raised £55 - and walked 75 miles.
