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.

Jesus to St. Catherine of Siena on Divine Providence

(Image Source: Wikimedia Commons ) Nothing has ever happened and nothing happens save by the plan of My Divine Providence. In all things that I permit, in all things that I give you, in tribulations and in consolations, temporal or spiritual, I do nothing save for your good, so that you may be sanctified in Me and that My Truth be fulfilled in you. (From The Dialogue ) PAUSE AND PONDER: Am I unwilling to believe God when He says nothing happens in my life that is not part of His Divine will for me? Do I refuse to see God’s hands in the struggles and trials of my daily life? Am I afraid to trust Him? (Excerpted from Pondering Tidbits of Truth, Volume VI)

Had We Only Listened and Obeyed!

(Image Source: Wikimedia Commons ) The judgment of one’s state of grace obviously belongs only to the person involved, since it is a question of examining one’s conscience. However, in cases of outward conduct which is seriously, clearly and steadfastly contrary to the moral norm, the Church, in her pastoral concern for the good order of the community and out of respect for the sacrament, cannot fail to feel directly involved. The Code of Canon Law refers to this situation of a manifest lack of proper moral disposition when it states that those who “obstinately persist in manifest grave sin are not to be admitted to Eucharistic Communion". Saint John Paul II

What A Priceless and Undeserved Gift!

(Image Source: Wikimedia Commons ) The effects of Holy Communion are: spiritual nourishment of the soul (an increase in sanctifying grace, of the virtues and gifts of the Holy Spirit); intimate union of the soul with Christ and with His mystical body through grace and charity; a diminishing or mitigating of sensual passions; a glorious resurrection of the body; the remission of venial sins; the remission in some part or in great part of the temporal punishment due to sin; and spiritual sweetness and delights. Father Winfrid Herbst, S.D.S
