Three months to the ‘walk to Midland’


Today is April 1st and even though is fools day in most of North America; it is too the beginning of Holy Week as we commemorate the triumphal entrance of Jesus in Jerusalem and so it is Palm Sunday.
Hosanna! Hosanna! Oh King of Kings, you came for our salvation, to die for us on the cross, for our redemption.
I want to ask for Canada, the United States of America and the rest of the world and most specially for the so called ‘developed’ world, which more and more appear to be bringing humanity to the most dark ages in the history of the world, by pushing nations as well as their own, into the murdering of babies in the name of the selfishness, the destruction or mockery of the sacred institutions of family and marriage.
Selfishness is taking over while love is being dismissed as a weakness of the heart. Love is needed so that truth, humility or forgiveness can exist; because the truth can only be seen with loving eyes.
The pilgrimage to Midland, Ontario is to pray for all the nations in the world so that our hearts become once again human and that we open our eyes and all senses for obedience to the Commandments of our Lord God and His Son Jesus and be fruitful with the gifts of the Holy Spirit
For that we love God with all our hearts and intensity, over and above everything and anything and our neighbors as ourselves.

Common Good

It is often found commentaries that describe common good as extremes of anarchy, as expressions that on one end present a justification for system interference and on the other as an idea of omnipotence over the people who is typically labeled as mediocre and incapable of deciding on their own about their matters and circumstances. However, common good is divine a mandate we all have as individuals; to aim for and to work towards. It is what defines the relationship between science and reason, because a science where its object is to benefit only the self or to enhance the egos of the recipients is what defies reason and so it segregates itself from faith which is what make us creatures of God with dignity, identity and individuality because care exists for our neighbor and peer. Common good cannot be taking or confiscating from some to give to others or to pretend that by robbing from the ones that have to presumably give to the have not, the issue is fairly addressed. On the contra...

He said this to test Philip, for He himself knew what He was going to do

Gospel text ( Jn  6,1-15) :  Jesus went to the other side of the Sea of Galilee, near Tiberias, and large crowds followed him because of the miraculous signs they saw when He healed the sick. So He went up into the hills and sat down there with his disciples. Now the Passover, the feast of the Jews, was at hand. Then lifting up his eyes, Jesus saw the crowds that were coming to him and said to Philip, «Where shall we buy bread so that these people may  eat ?». He said this to test Philip, for He himself knew what He was going to do. Philip answered him, «Two hundred  silver coins would not buy enough bread for each of them to have a piece». Then one of Jesus' disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter's brother, said, «There is a boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish; but what good are these for so many?». Jesus said, «Make the people sit down». There was plenty of grass there so the people, about five thousand men, sat down to rest. Jesus then took the loaves, ga...
