URGENT REQUEST TO MY DOMINICAN BROTHERS AND SISTERS, FAMILY AND FRIENDS – YOUR IMMEDIATE ATTENTION AND ACTION IS NEEDED NOW!

My fellow Dominicans and friends. It is here! The book we have been working on for months – our humble contribution to the current efforts at Eucharistic Revival - Godhead Here in Hiding Whom I Do Adore – Lay Dominicans Reflect on Eucharistic Adoration.

On Friday, September 8, 2023, in one united act of love, we are urging each of you, your family and all our Dominican brothers and sisters around the world to go on Amazon.com, tomorrow, click this link and get a copy of this book. If you intend to purchase more than one copy, it would be more helpful for our getting noticed on Amazon if you buy 5 copies individually, for instance, rather than buying 5 copies at once.

Pass this request on to everyone you know and love. Stop what you are doing now and pass this on to the members of your fraternity and your family and friends.

We want Amazon.com, indeed the world, to take notice of this simple book  – not to bring attention to ourselves – but for the Glory of God. We ask Him to use the fruit of our contemplation to instill greater belief in, and reverence for, His Presence among us.

As Father Ignatius John Schweitzer, OP has stated in his Introduction to our book:

“The Lay Dominicans in this book have discovered the secret! They have discovered the all-surpassing treasure and value and meaning we have in our Eucharistic Lord in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and Adoration. Their deep yearnings have kept them coming back to the Eucharist to touch the human heart’s ultimate fulfillment, God, and then going out to the world with something to share. Contemporaries of our holy father St. Dominic repeatedly said that he was “always speaking either with God or about God.” In this spirit, these Lay Dominicans have discovered the secret and discovered that it is a secret that is meant to be shared. The Eucharist is a gift to be shared! And they do that beautifully in the pages that follow.”

 Watch Father Ignatius John Schweitzer, OP’s heartfelt explanation of this humble undertaking.

                               See you on Amazon.com this Friday, September 8, 2023.

Look Up! Look Up With the Eyes of Your Mind, Heart and Soul!

en t “When the Host is held on high and a chalice lifted…look up! Look up and see what Mary saw.  See a naked man squirming as He bleeds against a blackened sky; see a battered human body, writhing on a tree, prisoned there by savage spikes that have torn through Sacred hands and feet; see thorn-tortured head tossing from side to side as anguished torso labors, lifts and strains; see the eyes of God roll towards heaven beseeching, as broken lips blurt out that soul piercing cry: “My God, My God, Why has Thou forsaken Me?” What is this?  This is the Mass.  This is Crucifixion.  This is what Mary saw at the elevation of Christianity’s first Mass.  This is what you should see at the Elevation of every Mass!”  (From  The Way to God by Father M. Raymond, O.C.S.O. )

Looking for the Worse or the Best?

(Image Source: Wikimedia Commons) In dealing with ourselves, we should look for what is worse and make it, with God’s grace, the occasion of spiritual growth.   But in dealing with others, we should look for what is best, in order that, as we show mercy to others, God may show His grace and His mercy to us.  Venerable Fulton J. Sheen

Do Not Think This Message Got Through

(Image Source: Wikimedia Commons ) Pastors should ensure that, unless there is a grave reason against it, churches in which the Blessed Sacrament is normally reserved should be open every day for at least some hours, at the most suitable times, so that the faithful may be easily able to pray before the Blessed Sacrament. (Vatican Council II - Sacramentum Concilium )
