The Bible and the Virgin Mary is a dynamic twelve-part video series that beautifully explains the Catholic truths about Our Lady, showing how she has been a part of God’s plan to bring salvation to the world since the beginning of time. In addition to explanation of dogmas, answers to common objections, and demonstration of Mary’s presence in the Old and New Testaments, this study discusses Church-approved Marian apparitions that play an important role in Catholic Tradition. It’s sure to help Catholics and non-Catholics alike grow in an understanding and appreciation of the Mother of God. To access “The Bible and the Virgin Mary” Log in to Formed.org.

Re lexionemossobrelaPalabradeDiosAlgunas veces e inesperadamente algo nuevo se desliza sobre nuestro horizonte y nos agarra desprevenidos. Nos levantamos una mañana, nos quedamos parados al pie de la cama mientras pensamos que es bueno estar vivo; entonces nos sonreímos brevemente antes de volver a concentrarnos en los quehaceres del día. O nos sentamos con un amigo al mediodía para almorzar, nos contamos historias y reímos al recordar cosas de la vida de los dos, y en medio de todo eso pensamos para nosotros mismos que este momento presente ha valido todas las luchas y lágrimas de la vida. O nos sentamos en la rara quietud de una casa donde raramente hay quietud y soñamos despiertos acerca de todas las cosas que han sucedido en esta casa en el transcurso de los días y los años y nos damos cuenta de que dentro de esas paredes además de vida ha habido amor y madurez, y ahora oímos el rar de una puerta y nuestro día regresa al tumultuoso caos. Todos esos son momentos de gracia, momentos en que las sombras se esfuman aunque sea brevemente y vemos con mucha más claridad que nunca antes, que ésa es la mera presencia de Dios en que nos movemos y exis mos. Entonces, por supuesto, el momento desaparece y queremos contárselo a alguien y tal vez tratemos de hacerlo, pero al final de cuentas nuestras palabras no alcanzan a describir la experiencia. Después de todo, ¿con qué palabras se puede explicar que por un breve momento caminamos por la vida junto a Dios de una manera más consciente que nunca antes? Me pregunto si eso fue parte de lo que sucedió cuando Cleofás y su amigo se encontraron con el extraño en el camino cuando iban de Jerusalén hacia Emaús. ¿Cómo es posible que no se dieran cuenta que ese extraño era Jesús? Tal vez la gracia haya sido que por la fe llegaron a reconocer al Señor Jesús entre ellos y en realidad no tenía importancia si la luz les llegó rápida o lentamente. Lo importante es que sucedió. —Padre Joseph J. Juknialis Derechos de autor © 2013, World Library Publications. Todos los derechos reservados. VivamoslaPalabradeDiosComo muchos ya han dicho, la vida es un peregrinar. También lo es la fe. Y nuestro peregrinar nos lleva a toda clase de lugares inesperados; de lo contrario no sería un peregrinar. La fe puede ser una de esas viradas en el camino, que nos abre otros caminos.

SAINT LOUIS DE MONTFORT (1673 –1716)

Feast Day - April 28

Louis’s life is inseparable from his efforts to promote genuine devo on to Mary, the mother of Jesus and mother of the Church. Totus tuus (completely yours) was Louis’s personal mo o; Karol Wojtyla (John Paul II, October 22) chose it as his episcopal mo o. Louis Mary Grignion was born to a poor family on January 21, 1673, at Mon ort, France, as an adult Louis iden fied himself by the place of his Bap sm instead of his family name, Grignion. He was educated at the Jesuit college in Rennes and was ordained as a diocesan priest there in 1700. He was assigned as chaplain to a hospital at Poiters, and his much-needed reorganiza on of the hospital staff caused great resentment, leading to his resigna on. However, during his stay there he organized a group of women into the Congrega on of the Daughters of Divine Wisdom. Eventually Louis went to Rome where Pope Clement XI appointed him missionary apostolic, and he began to preach in Bri any. His emo onal style caused much reac on, but he was successful, especially in furthering devo on to the Blessed Virgin through the Rosary. He also wrote a popular book, True Devo on to the Blessed Virgin. In 1715, Louis organized several priests and brothers and formed the Missionaries of the Company of Mary. He died in 1716 at Saint-Laurent-sur Sèvre, France, where a basilica has been erected in his honor and he was canonized in 1947 by Pope Pius XII.

PRAY THE ROSARY YARD SIGN CAMPAIGN

Many centuries ago, Pope Pius V urged all Chris ans across Europe to invoke Our Lady’s intercession through the Rosary when the Church of Europe was on the verge of collapse. It was widely recognized that the ba le was won through the power of Mary, Our Lady of Victory.

This powerful weapon of the Rosary that saved Christendom from the clutches of the O oman invaders, is available to us today as we invoke her protec on during this me of the coronavirus pandemic.

Please pray the daily Rosary to Our Lady for this inten on, and be a witness to her powerful intercession by placing this Yard Sign in your front yard. To reserve a Yard Sign, call: Martha at 575/640-9076. A suggested dona on of $10.00 is requested to cover the cost of the Sign.

PRAY THE ROSARY Together with Mary, the first

Christian,

we shall “contemplate the

beauty

on the Face of Christ”.

St. John Paul II

“I promise my special

protection and the greatest graces to all those who

shall recite the Rosary.”

The Blessed Virgin Mary
