This morning in prayer, as I began to think about the Marian consecration Mass that Fr. Moreno will celebrate on September 15, and all the groups who will be involved in the planning of it...an image of Jesus as He is portrayed in the Divine Mercy image came to mind, with great energy. With His right hand, which is raised in blessing, He gave the priestly blessing and said, "I give My blessing on this endeavor!" Thanks be to God! Cami Little Handmaids of Our Sorrowful Mother www.sorrowfulmother.net And Mary said, "Behold I am the handmaid of the Lord; let it be to me according to your word." (Lk 1:38)      

      How Great is our God!!! Our Creator and Redeemer . . . and do we THINK about it ??? God's accuracy may be observed in the hatching of eggs.. . . . .For example: the eggs of the potato bug hatch in 7 days; those of the canary in 14 days; those of the barnyard hen in 21 days; The eggs of ducks and geese hatch in 28 days; those of the mallard in 35 days;            The eggs of the parrot and the ostrich hatch in 42 days. (Notice, they are all divisible by seven, the number of days in a week!) God's wisdom is seen in the making of an elephant. The four legs of this great beast all bend forward in the same direction. No other quadruped is so made. God planned that this animal would have a huge body, too large to live on two legs. For this reason He gave it four fulcrums so that it can rise from the ground easily. The horse rises from the ground on its two front legs first. A cow ris...

ABORTION is not a triumph for women, but rather it is a tragedy for humanity  

"There's a baby in there. There's a HUMAN BEING growing inside your stomach"

Pro-lifers: We love all things baby. Unborn babies, premature babies, full-term babies… babies who have Down syndrome or anencephaly, and big fat healthy babies. We also love vacuum-chasing-sheriff-babies, like the one in this advertisement from Samsung. The content little pudge is just chilling in his walker, when along comes a vacuum traveling just slightly slower than the speed of light. Intrigued, the onesie-clad babe takes on a law-enforcement persona and chases the vacuum around the house. After many close-calls with corners and a near collision with the family dog, the baby in hot pursuit spins out of control into a wall of bean bags and stuffed animals. Mom, who’s finished vacuuming without breaking a sweat (of course) picks up the giggling baby as the frame accommodates the Samsung vacuum tagline: Easy to move. Hard to catch. In a world where one out of three babies won’t have the opportunity to star in an advertisement like this because their lives...

    Dear APCC friends and volunteers, We would like to share this photo with you of our recent participation at the 7th Annual Back to School Health Fair August 9th at Del Rio Civic Center.
