October - Month of the Holy Rosary
Alleluia, alleluia!
If anyone loves me he will keep my word,
and my Father will love him,
and we shall come to him.
Alleluia!
Gospel: Matthew 21:28-32
Tax collectors and prostitutes are entering the kingdom of God before you
Jesus said to the chief priests and elders of the people, ‘What is your opinion? A man had two sons. He went and said to the first, “My boy, you go and work in the vineyard today.” He answered, “I will not go,” but afterwards thought better of it and went. The man then went and said the same thing to the second who answered, “Certainly, sir,” but did not go. Which of the two did the father’s will?’ ‘The first’ they said. Jesus said to them, ‘I tell you solemnly, tax collectors and prostitutes are making their way into the kingdom of God before you. For John came to you, a pattern of true righteousness, but you did not believe him, and yet the tax collectors and prostitutes did. Even after seeing that, you refused to think better of it and believe in him.’
Notes from meeting 26 October 2023
A picture of Jesus on top of high mountain, He is calling His sheep to safety.
At the base of the mountain and as far as the eye can see are sheep milling about, but at the call of His Voice they immediately start to come toward the mountain.
The sheep cannot find a safe path and because of the darkness fear overcomes them. Then all of a sudden all the Saints, Martyrs and Angels, in fact all the Holy One’s from Heaven form a corridor of light by lining up in two lines from the top of the mountain to the base, and so the sheep move towards the light and onto the path with the Holy Ones encouraging them on either side!
At the very base of the mountain are Our Blessed Mother and St Pio who do not leave until the last sheep is safe.
"My dear children
Come to the refuge of my Son’s Heart, here you will find security and love, keep your eyes fixed on Him, do not look right or left at all that is going on to distract you, My adversary tries to lure you away from the path to Heaven, but all of Heaven at this time is set to aid you and guide you, pray with the heart my little ones, your Mother is here to help and guide you to Jesus, He Who is Constant Love, listen to His Voice and ignore false voices! I am with you and cover you with my Motherly Mantle, all will be well!
Mary"
I cover all hesitancy and shame with the courage of my love (The Cross) .
Let your faces not be abashed.
Psalm 34 v5 Those who look to him are radiant; their faces are never covered in shame
Jesus' love and his sacrifice on the Cross take away our shame. We should not be hesitant in looking to Him for with Him is mercy and love.

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 85 miles.
