Catholic Bible Encounter: Legion of Mary Bible Study - 30 May 2014 Theme: He Ascended into Heaven Scripture: Solemnity of the  Ascension of the Lord - Acts 1: 1-11; Psalm 42; Ephesians 1:17- 23; Gospel of St. Matthew 28: 16-20 Catechism of the Catholic Church (645-667) Article 6 "He Ascended into Heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father" 659 - "So then the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was taken into heaven, and sat down at the right hand of God (Mark 16:19:." Christ's body was glorified at the moment of his resurrection, as proved by the new and supernatural properties it subsequently and permanently enjoys (Lk 24:31; Jn 20:19,26)." But during the forty days when he eats and drinks familiarly with his disciples and teaches them about the kingdom, his glory remains veiled under the appearance of ordinary humanity (Acts 1:3; 10:41; Mk 16:12; Lk 24:15; Jn 20:14-15; 21:14)." Jesus's final apparition ends with the ir...

POPE FRANCIS MAKES A REQUEST Weep not for what you have lost, fight for what you have. Weep not for what is dead, fight for what was born in you. Weep not for the one who abandoned you, fight for who is with you. Weep not for those who hate you, fight for those who want you. Weep not for your past, fight for your present struggle. Weep not for your suffering, fight for your happiness. With things that are happening to us, we begin to learn that nothing is impossible to solve, just move forward. THE HOLY FATHER MAKES A REQUEST FOR...

Legion of Mary Spiritual presentation 25 May 2014 Christ and Mary 1.        Mary leads us to Jesus .  We first have to respond to some fears and criticisms regarding Marian piety.  Many fear that Mary separates believers from Christ. That she is in “competition” with Christ. That she places herself as a “screen” between God and us.  At the origin of that fear, there are usually negative experiences caused by off-the-track practices of Marian piety or false focuses on the person of Mary.  Such fears do not correspond to the reality desired by God and proclaimed by the Church in her life and in her doctrine. 2.      “Do what He tells you (Jn. 2: 4).” St. Pope John Paul II said: “Mary was truly united to Christ.  Not many of her words are preserved in the Bible, but these ones take us anew to her Son and to His Word. At Cana of Galilee, she addressed the servants with these words: “Do ...

The Legion of Mary Bible Study      23 May 2014 Opening Prayer:  In honor of The Blessed Mother during the month of May we will pray the Rosary Theme:  “Sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts”  (1Peter 3:15-18) Scripture:  Six Sunday of Easter - Acts 8: 5-17; Psalm 66; 1Peter 3:15-18; John 14: 15-21 1Peter 3: 15:  “sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts.  Always be ready to give an explanation to anyone who asks you for a reason for your hope.” How do we baptized Christians sanctify Christ as Lord in our hearts? We sanctify Christ as Lord in our hearts by having faith in Christ Jesus who is Lord. A.       Christ as Lord is to proclaim that Jesus is God.    In the Old Testament God was called Lord.  Jesus Christ is the anointed one.  We must believe in our hea...
