INTRODUCTION TO NEW MISSAL
: http://www.catholicprophecy.info/missal11.htmlOctober 26, 2011
CHRIST'S PEACE: Two thousand years ago, Christ Jesus said to his disciples: “Peace I leave with you; My Peace I give to you. Not as the world gives, do I give it to you.” (John 14:27) Hitherto, Jesus’ offer of peace is repeated every time a priest celebrates Mass.
Peace is something which Jesus places in our hands. It is something which we receive. “My Peace I give to you . . . Jesus says. Peace is the gift of God. It’s not something we achieve independently. “Not as the world gives, do I give to you…” We need to be careful, that the peace we pray for, and the peace we build, is different from the temporary peace which is built by war and violence.
The peace that Christ Jesus gives is based on love, truth, justice and nonviolence. Peace is built on trust and confidence, not fear. Christ’s peace is built on honesty and openness. It means beginning a new world, beginning in our midst. Christ’s peace means praying for our enemies. It means forgiveness.
Christ Jesus didn’t say, “My Peace I will give you, at some far-off point in the future.” He said, “I give you my peace . . . ” That’s in the present tense. Part of what we need to do as Christians is to accept Christ’s peace, and then live it and nurture it.

FROM THE MAILBAG
VIA David J Sheehan: I know this is a local happening here in North Texas, but if you put out the word, maybe other cities in the USA will follow suit for Veteran's Day.

I know that Veteran's Day is November 11th; chosen for the end of World War I - the war to end all wars on the 11th day of the 11th month at the 11th hour. Our people just need to be reminded from time to time that we are still working to end war forever.
I have always studied World War I - I think a number of opportunities for lasting peace were missed in the Hall of Mirrors after the war.
Although the timing of the apparitions of Our Lady at Fatima in 1917 are often overlooked. John Kennedy was born in 1917 and his murder by domestic agents opened up the floodgates to our debacle in Vietnam. We are still feeling the effects of that war.
Our country declared war on Good Friday, April 6th in 1917 and our troops saw their first action just after the miracle of the sun (October 13th , 1917)
Interestingly, Our Lady advised Sister Lucia in 1929 that the time had come for the Pope to consecrate Russia. 1929 was the year that the Lateran Pact was signed with Mussolini and released the Pope from no longer being a "prisoner of the Vatican".
I know I only have a small part of the puzzle but we must be near the end of the 100 years that the devil has to wage war on us; just not sure how close we are to the end.

Thoughts and Sayings of Saint Margaret Mary: The Holy Eucharist
4. Jesus was obedient even to the death of the Cross, therefore I wish to obey even to my last sigh, so as to pay homage to the obedience of Jesus in the Sacred Host; and the whiteness of the Host teaches me that I must be a pure victim, in order to be sacrificed to Him.Prayer request?
