This is a HUGE deal, all of us should assemble at our parishes if possible and join in prayer with the Holy Father tomorrow March 25th at 6:30 Rome time or 12:30 CDT
The pope released a letter March 23 asking all Catholics to assemble in their parishes on Friday to pray the act of consecration. So, there’s a good chance your parish may be organizing something. You can always contact your parish to ask if they know about the pope’s request, and if they don’t yet have plans, whether you can organize a gathering at your parish.

We discuss the Kyle Rittenhouse trial, and Rep. Paul Gosar, how that reflects on our own sphere of influence and what we should be focusing on...hint it isn't these stories:-)
We discuss gratefulness and how we can lift ourselves up with the recognition of what we are or can be grateful for, seeking that grateful attitude and general disposition and not get caught up in negative things of the day.
Terry gives a great story on this -> tune in to hear what happened!

We discuss some listener feedback from Episode 15
https://www.pewforum.org/fact-sheet/public-opinion-on-abortion/
Main Topic: The Permanent Diaconate
What is a permanent Deacon in the Latin Church?
From Pope saint John Paul II address on the Jubilee year - https://www.vatican.va/content/john-paul-ii/en/speeches/2000/jan-mar/documents/hf_jp-ii_spe_20000219_jubilee-deacons.html
Dear deacons, perhaps some of you are tired because of the burden of your duties, because of frustration due to unsuccessful apostolic projects, because many misunderstand you. Do not lose heart! Throw yourselves into Christ's arms: he will refresh you. May this be your Jubilee: a pilgrimage of conversion to Jesus.
- Faithful to Christ in all things, dear deacons, you will also be faithful to the various ministries the Church entrusts to you. How valuable is your service to the Word and to catechesis! And what can we say of the diakonia of the Eucharist, which brings you into direct contact with the altar of sacrifice in your liturgical service?

Main Topic: Our Lady of Fatima
Pray daily, go to confession, pray for unrepentant sinners, sacrifice for sinners, Pray the Rosary Daily
Prayers from Our Lady:
“Pray, pray a great deal, and make sacrifices for sinners, for many souls go to Hell because they have no one to pray and make sacrifices for them.”
“My God, I believe, I adore, I hope, and I love Thee. I ask pardon for all those who do not believe in Thee, do not adore Thee, do not hope in Thee, and do not love Thee... “Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Ghost, I adore Thee profoundly and I offer Thee the most Precious Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of the same Son Jesus Christ, present in the Tabernacles of the world, in reparation for all the sacrileges, outrages and indifferences by which He Himself is offended. And by the infinite merits of His Most Sacred Heart and the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I beg of Thee the conversion of poor sinners.”
“O my Jesus, forgive us our sins, save us from the fires of Hell. Lead all souls to Heaven, especially those most in need.” of thy mercy

Happy Easter! We discuss Divine Mercy the Divine Mercy Image and how we all need to more!
From Saint Faustina's diary:
My daughter, if I demand through you that people revere My mercy, you should be the first to distinguish yourself by this confidence in My mercy. I demand from you deeds of mercy, which are to arise out of love for Me. You are to show mercy to your neighbors always and everywhere. You must not shrink from this or try to excuse or absolve yourself from it.
I am giving you three ways of exercising mercy toward your neighbor: the first — by deed, the second — by word, the third — by prayer. In these three degrees is contained the fullness of mercy, and it is an unquestionable proof of love for Me. By this means a soul glorifies and pays reverence to My mercy. Yes, the first Sunday after Easter is the Feast of Mercy, but there must also be acts of mercy, and I demand the worship of My mercy through the solemn celebration of the Feast and through the veneration of the image which is painted. By means of this image I shall grant many graces to souls. It is to be a reminder of the demands of My mercy, because even the strongest (163) faith is of no avail without works. … (Diary, 742).

O Saint Joseph, whose protection is so great, so strong, so prompt before the throne of God, I place in you all my interests and desires.
O Saint Joseph, do assist me by your powerful intercession and obtain for me from your divine Son all spiritual blessings through Jesus Christ, Our Lord, so that having experienced here below your heavenly power, I may offer my thanksgiving and homage to the most loving of fathers.
O Saint Joseph, I never weary of contemplating you and Jesus asleep in your arms. I dare not approach while He reposes near your heart. Hold Him close in my name and kiss His fine head from me, and ask Him to return the kiss when I draw my dying breath. St. Joseph, patron of departing souls, pray for me. Amen.

Rom 8:31b-34
Brothers and sisters:
If God is for us, who can be against us?
He who did not spare his own Son
but handed him over for us all,
how will he not also give us everything else along with him?
Who will bring a charge against God’s chosen ones?
It is God who acquits us, who will condemn?
Christ Jesus it is who died—or, rather, was raised—
who also is at the right hand of God,
who indeed intercedes for us.

We discuss our own Ash Wednesday experiences
Main Topic: Lent, how to do it well and keep our focus on Christ
- Meditation on the Gospel narratives of Christ's Passion.
- Spiritual reading of books like Goodier's Passion and Death of Our Lord Jesus Christ, Abbot Marmion's The Way of the Cross, Edward Leen's Why the Cross?, Fulton Sheen's Seven Words on the Cross.
- Recitation of prayers like Soul of Christ Sanctify Me.
- Besides making the daily Way of the Cross, encouraging others to make the Stations at least on Fridays during Lent.
- Having some symbol of Christ's Passion, like the crucifix or picture of the crucifix within easy eye vision to remind us of the Passion at odd moments of the day.
- Having some short aspiration which is recited (at least mentally) a few times during the day, like, "My Jesus Crucified," or "Heart of Jesus, obedient unto death, have mercy on us."
- Occasionally reciting the Litany of the Precious Blood.
- Spending some extra time before the Blessed Sacrament, asking Our Lord to grow in the understanding of His continued Passion now in the Church, which is His Mystical Body on earth!
- Making an occasional entry into one's spiritual journal about, "How much the Passion of Christ means to me."
Fasting from meat :
All Fridays through the year and the time of Lent are penitential days and times throughout the universal Church (Canon 1250).
Abstinence from eating meat or another food according to the prescriptions of the conference of bishops is to be observed on Fridays throughout the year unless they are solemnities; abstinence and fast are to be observed on Ash Wednesday and on the Friday of the Passion and Death of Our Lord Jesus Christ (Canon 1251).

Archbishop Fulton Sheen said, "The rosary is the book of the blind, where souls see and there enact the greatest drama of love the world has ever known; it is the book of the simple, which initiates them into mysteries and knowledge more satisfying than the education of other men; it is the book of the aged, whose eyes close upon the shadow of this world, and open on the substance of the next. The power of the rosary is beyond description."

Discussion:
We discuss resources that are provided to us as Catholics to help form our consciences so that we might make well informed decisions. See excerpts below.
https://www.usccb.org/issues-and-action/faithful-citizenship/upload/forming-consciences-for-faithful-citizenship.pdf
The USCCB clearly states that our preeminent concern is for the unborn, "The threat of abortion remains our preeminent priority because it directly attacks life itself, because it takes place within the sanctuary of the family, and because of the number of lives destroyed." "At the same time, we cannot dismiss or ignore other serious threats to human life and 7 dignity such as racism, the environmental crisis, poverty and the death penalty.5 Our efforts to protect the unborn remain as important as ever, for just as the Supreme Court may allow greater latitude for state laws restricting abortion, state legislators have passed statutes not only keeping abortion legal through all nine months of pregnancy but opening the door to infanticide. Additionally, abortion contaminates many other important issues by being inserted into legislation regarding immigration, care for the poor, and health care reform"

Main Topic:
We had planned to talk about what our new "normal" looks like and how to still grow closer to Our Lord in these ongoing trials that so many are going through. Our conversation got more into the areas of frustration that we have had, what we are seeing around the areas where we have been in recent months and the differences. We discuss many aspects of how this has impacted our own lives. Our hope is that our conversation will help you find ways to draw closer to Our Lord, if you haven't spent time in prayer regularly take time today to sit with Him and listen in silence and with his word.

We congratulate Terry on his ordination to the permanent diaconate!
We continue the conversation on the Sacrament of Confession, how God's mercy shown to us needs to be given to others, the importance of our own humbling ourselves before God.
Catechism of the Catholic Church paragraph 1459 http://www.scborromeo.org/ccc/p2s2c2a4.htm#1459
We dive into our opportunity to recognize our sinfulness and the mercy that God has shown us and how to show that same mercy to others
If it has been some time since you have received this healing Sacrament, please pray and take that step to receive God's mercy.
