Teach Holy Rosary in other Style

As Catholic the Holy Rosary is one of the basic prayers we have to recite. It is so because it is the best weapon at hand against temptation and attacks of the devil on you and your family. Because of the this is included in the basic catechism. It is a challenge of the catechist or parents on how to instill on the younger generation the importance of Rosary. Younger generations are more attracted to something enjoyable - worldly entertainment. It is rare nowadays the children are attracted to spiritual matters.

How to Achieve Anything You Ask For?




Who has no problems, needs and wants? Often times we work hard to resolve our problem and obtain what we nee or want. But there are times that what you ask for is impossible in terms of human reasoning e.g. conversion of yourself or your loved ones, healing of terminally ill person and financial worries. So how to achieve anything you ask for even those impossible in human rationality? Let us not forget that we have an Almighty God Who is generous and compassion.

Why Keep God's 10 Commandments at all times

Why Keep God's 10 Commandments at  all times? For Christian it is simple - because Jesus said so Himself when He was asked what to do to enter heaven (Matthew 19:17). Jesus acknowledge the 10 Commandments given by God the Father to Moses. He did not abolish the Law of God rather He invite us to revisit the Law in Him. Timely, this topic synced on today's (March 28) first reading - Jeremiah 7:23-28. In which people at that time did not pay heed to God. They lost their faith.

What Replaces Angelus During Lent?

So I wake up a week ago 5:58, then started my Angelus at 6am. But upon reciting it, I realized this is season of Lent - time to reflect on the great and sorrowful Sacrifice of our Lord Jesus Christ. The Angelus declares the joy of the coming of the Savior but is this appropriate to be recited on Lent?

Meaning of Ceremonies in Holy Mass

Many of us go to church receive the Holy Eucharist or go to Sunday service receive the bread and wine but do not understand to honor the Lord but do not understand what this Gift means.



The Eucharist is indeed the Body and Blood of Jesus. When we receive them it is not just to honor Him but to consume His Body fully. "Remember on the night before He was betrayed and enter willingly into His Passion" [word of priest in Mass], He gave Himself completely to us Mind, Body and Soul. Such is His Gift that without the Eucharist we cannot survive.

Now let us ask ourselves, do we really receive Him the that it should be? He suffer pain and rejection every time we go to Mass and do not understand truly what is Gift is. Here, is the meaning of ceremonies in Holy Mass.
