Do not carry a traveler's bag, or an extra shirt...


Instrucciones a los doce

Gospel text (Mathew 10,7-15): Jesus said to his disciples, «Go and proclaim this message: ‘The kingdom of heaven is near’. Heal the sick, bring the dead back to life, cleanse the lepers, and drive out demons. You received this as a gift, so give it as a gift. Do not carry any gold, silver or copper in your purses. Do not carry a traveler's bag, or an extra shirt, or sandals, or walking-stick: workers deserve their living. When you come to a town or a village, look for a worthy person and stay there until you leave. As you enter the house, wish it peace. If the people in the house deserve it, your peace will be on them; if they do not deserve it, your blessing will come back to you. And if you are not welcomed and your words are not listened to, leave that house or that town and shake the dust off your feet. I assure you, it will go easier for the people of Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than it will for the people of that town».

  A note to Helena Jaczek, MP from Markham. There must be serious worries that an election will happen very soon rather than later. Thanks God for His infinite mercy. Our people is suffering long enough under the yoke of the Liberal/NDP coalition. Since all the destruction you fostered and promoted, yes, you included. Or you think for a moment we are going to see you somewhere outside the circle of death that suffocates Canada?  Oh! But you are focused on Ukraine, and the pandemic ad what else, of course, the climate change, all of which are secondary to the freedom the people needs to enjoy, because God created us all, each and everyone of us free, with free will and with the ability to think, grow and prosper on our own, all suppressed by your government. Have you ever for a moment stopped to think about the suffering of the people?  Now you want to display yourself as a hard working individual ready to work… Is not that a bit, no, a lot, hypocritical? Oops. Are you off...

Thoughts about fear and faith

  Heretic heralds or heralds of the heretic. What is it? How did we get here? Somehow at some point in relative recent history, the world has been transformed to be a vehicle of fear. Fear has been instituted as the motive of human existence. Forgetting what we are and where we proceed from, and even the truth, the foundation of justice, we’ve been transformed onto irrational animals following ignorance, deception and confusion, stampeding at the existence of any noise, anyone whom without concept or science behind, just tell us to go to destruction and we obey, without questioning or even thinking or reflexion.  God, the one and only living One, our creator, to His image and likeness, since day one, when man ad woman were created, has been looking for us, individually and as a group, always revealing to us, putting before us evidence with clarity. And we have just drifted away from Him pushed or inspired by our own selfishness and ambitions, our greed, since that time describ...

Joseph, descendant of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife

Gospel text ( Mathew 1,16.18-21.24a): Jacob was the father of Joseph, the husband of Mary, and from her came Jesus who is called the Christ ­—the Messiah. This is how Jesus Christ was born. Mary his mother had been given to Joseph in marriage but before they lived together, she was found to be preg­nant through the Holy Spirit. Then Joseph, her husband, made plans to divorce her in all secrecy. He was an upright man, and in no way did he want to discredit her. While he was pondering over this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, «Joseph, descendant of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife. She has conceived by the Holy Spirit, and now she will bear a son. You shall call him “Jesus” for he will save his people from their sins». When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had told him to do and he took his wife to his home.
