THE TRIB TIMES WILL RETURN NEXT WEEK, GOD WILLING (James 4:15).

(Php 1:27-28) Only let your conversation be worthy of the gospel of Christ: that, whether I come and see you, or, being absent, may hear of you, that you stand fast in one spirit, with one mind labouring together for the faith of the gospel. And in nothing be ye terrified by the adversaries: which to them is a cause of perdition, but to you of salvation, and this from God.

POPE BENEDICT XVI: Without the coming of Christ, the world will not be just or renewed, Pope teaches

FROM THE MAILBAG
VIA
Dennis: Come O Holy Spirit – Come by the means of the powerful intercession of the Immaculate Heart of Mary Your Well-Beloved Spouse.

The above is a prayer that I have prayed perhaps thousands of times in the last fifteen years and is a prayer that prays for the Triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary.

"In the end my Immaculate Heart will triumph" – Our Lady of Fatima

As I continue to repeat this prayer, I seem to feel that it has more and more meaning as I watch the world go crazy with love of self. Europe has all but tossed God out with the trash. As much as we protest, abortion seems to have become just something we do. Man seems to want to modify life and continue to spew it deadly chemical concoctions on the earth. Even if you don't see this, you must see the greed that seems to be bringing the world's financial systems down? It seems that a great cloud of evil has settled on the earth. We have all arrived at an era of choice. Will we choose the physical or will we live in the spirit? It is coming as sure as I am writing this message using electrons to transmit it over the internet. One day, perhaps what I have done today may be looked upon as an act or terror. Perhaps one day you and I will have to choose our most wonderful Catholic faith or choose what others will say is good. When that day comes, good will be deemed as evil and evil as good. Now is a good time to think about that and what your response will be.

Mary is gathering her children for her Son – Will you be one of them?

ECONONOMIC HEADLINES

Banking Crisis: Thain (Merrill), Like the Great Depression
Obama Is Seen Inheriting Worst U.S. Recession Since Reagan Era
For the U.S. Economy in the New Year, the Pain Will Precede the Promise

ANALYSIS: Why Washington Cannot Prevent Depression

OPINIONPreparation: Recession, Depression, or Panic?

BISHOP'S STATEMENT: As the Catholic bishops of the United States gather in Baltimore and as servants of Jesus our hope, we bring with us our concern for people in our dioceses, and we want to express our active support and solidarity with all those who are being hurt by the current economic crisis. As pastors and bishops, we see the many human and moral consequences of this crisis. Clearly, the impact is greater in some regions than others.

However, across our nation families are losing their homes; retirement savings are threatened; workers are losing jobs and health care; and many people are losing a sense of hope and security.

This disturbing and complicated situation brings home a universal truth: we are all children of God. We are our brothers' and sisters' keepers. We are all in this together. Hard times can isolate us or they can bring us together. The Catholic community will continue to reach out to those in need, stand with those who are hurt, and work for policies that bring greater compassion, accountability and justice to economic life.

Pope Benedict XVI has outlined our goals in his 2008 World Day of Peace message: "The family needs to have a home, employment, and a just recognition of the domestic activity of parents, the possibility of schooling for children, and basic health care for all." He also insists that society and public policy should be "committed to assisting the family in these areas."

We offer our prayers for the families and individuals, our sisters and brothers, who are hurting, anxious or discouraged in these difficult times. We also pledge our prayers for our wounded nation and suffering world. We pray that, working together, we can find the courage, wisdom and ways to build an economy of prosperity and greater justice for all.

Ladder of Divine Ascent excerpt: Step 11- "On talkativeness and silence"

1. In the preceding chapter, we spoke briefly of how extremely dangerous it is to judge others, or rather, to be judged and punished by one's own tongue, and of how this vice steals into even the most apparently spiritual people. Now we must show the cause of this vice, and give a proper account of the door by which it enters, or rather, goes out.
