Remember Always , many are SPIRITUALLY IN PRAYER
WITH YOU !!
May we ALL pray for those "Embracing the Cross"of Jesus !
You are not alone
We are not alone
Jesus is with US !
**************
IF ONE WISHES: You may do "Embrace the Cross" prayer
method with someone you care about using your cell phone's, computer,
or texting. May you be the one to help lead the prayer method in
Short way or original version. ( if their is a third party, use the speaker )
You may want to try the Short way first, and build yourselves
up to the original or longer version in time.
"Embrace the Cross" is a beautiful way of prayer in action.
One should never be anxious or nervous. If your loved one
or the person you care about is in pain , simply allow them
to listen to you pray the words given over your cell phone. Help them to make
the five crosses slowly on their forehead or chest ( letter T) then remind them to
kiss their thumb ( representing Jesus on the Cross ) end the
method in saying together ;( I join my cross with your cross) amen.
If one has a crucifix, photo of Jesus ( you may use the picture on this blog, Then
go ahead and give your kiss as stated in the prayer method.
Please , as you make your five crosses on your forehead, chest, or traditionally, make
them SLOWLY. You will notice how relaxing, calm, and soothing they will
be, especially on the forehead
*************
If you contact the person you wish to do "Embrace the Cross" with, and they are
unable to at that time ; mention to them you will be doing the Short way by yourself, and
they can do it as well, on their own time. (It will bring comfort to the both of you). May
you both TOGETHER try to do the original version OR longer version of "Embrace the Cross" at least once a week.
NOTE: In doing the " Embrace the Cross " with the person whom you care about
may not be easy at first, however the more you do the prayer method it will get
easier. When the person whom you are teaching the method to, learns how to do the prayer method on their own, you can step away alittle bit, and allow them to get into their own
routine. Please be sure you stay in communication with them , in reminding them you
yourself is doing "Embrace The Cross"as well.
NOTE: You will find the "Embrace the Cross" and the Short Way of Embrace The
Cross on "My Favorites" or go to embraceholycross.com
Matthew Ch. 18 Verse 18-20 " Where two or three
are gathered in my name, there am I in their mist."
May Our Lord Bless You Always,
Dear Blessed Mary, Pray for Us, yours in Christ, Lori
KEEP TURNING YOUR NIGHTLIGHTS ON !!

can be momentarily, however God will grant you His Blessings.
The MAIN LIGHT is in our HEARTS !
note: Embrace the Cross, prayer method can be done daily, however remember the given
days stated in honor of our loved ones.
We can do this prayer method for ourselves as well.
Embrace the Cross is being in Union with Our Lord in honoring Him on the Cross
and for our salvation.
FAITH AND GOOD WORKS: James Ch 2 Verses 14-26
My Brothers,
what good is it to profess faith without
practicing it? Such faith has no power to
save one, has it: if a brother or sister
has nothing to wear and no food for the
day, and you say to them,"Good-bye
and good luck! Keep warm and well fed."
but do not meet their bodily needs, what
good is that: So it is with the faith that
does nothing in practice, It is thoroughly
lifeless.
To such a person one might say, "You
have faith and I have works-is that it?"
Show me your faith without works, and I
will show you the faith that underlies my
works! Do you believe that God is one:
You are quite right. The demons believe
that, and shudder. Do you want proof,
you ignoramus, that without works faith is
idle? Was not our father Abraham just-
tified by his works when he offered his son
Isaac on the altar? There you see proof
that faith was both assisting his works and
implemented by his works. You also see
how the Scripture was fulfilled which says,
"Abraham believed God, and it was credited
to him as justice" for this he received the
title "God's friend."
You must perceive that a person is
justified by his works and not by faith alone.
Rahab the harlot will illustrate the point.
Was she not justified by her works when
she harbored the messengers and sent them
out by a different route? Be assured, them,
that faith without works is as dead as a body
without breath.
Greetings and Peace of Our Lord, be with you ALL.

The Immaculate Conception of The Blessed Virgin Mary is on (Dec. 8) / Blessed Mary Mother of God Pray For Us !
Blessed Mary was born (Sept. 8) without original sin, from
the moment she was conceived. By the
virtue of the foreseen merits of her son
Jesus Christ.
"The most Blessed Virgin Mary was, from the
first moment of her conception
in her mother's womb (St.Anne)
was preserved exempt from all
stain of original sin. Sanctifying grace
was given to her before sin
could have taken effect in her soul.
But she was not made exempt from
the temporal penalties of Adam
from sorrow, bodily infirmities,
and death.
Ava Maria- means (Hail Mary in latin, based on the
salutation (greeting) of the Angel Gabriel
to Blessed Virgin Mary (Luke Ch 1 Verse 28)
Blessed Mary was given grace granted
by God by a singular
privilege, in the view of the
merits of Jesus Christ, the Savior of
the Human Race.
Note: Hail means; to good health)

Luke Ch 1 Verses 26-38 (Announcement of the Birth of Jesus ( The Annunciation ; the first
Joyful Mystery of Our Lord)
The Angel Gabriel was sent from God to
a town of Galilee named Nazareth.
to a virgin betrothed (engaged to marriage)
to a man named Joseph, of the house of
David. The virgin's name was Mary.
Upon arriving the Angel said to her;
"Rejoice, O highly favored daughter! The Lord
is with you. Blessed are you among women."
She was deeply troubled by his words,
and wondered what his greeting meant.
The angel went on to say to her;
"Do not fear, Mary. You have found favor
with God. You shall conceive and bear
a son and give him the name Jesus.
Great will be his dignity and he will
be called Son of the Most High.
The Lord God will give him
the throne of David his father.
He will rule over the house of
Jacob forever. and his reign will be
without end."
Mary said to the angel, "How can
this be since I do not know man?"( meaning
had no relations with a man)
The Angel answered her; "The Holy Spirit
will come upon you and the power of
the Most High will overshadow you;
hence, the holy offspring to be born
will be called Son of God.
Know that Elizabeth your
kins-woman (cousin)
has conceived a son in her old
age; she who was thought to be
sterile is now in her sixth month.
for nothing is impossible with God."
Mary said:"I am the servant of the
Lord, Let it be done to me as you say."
With that the Angel left her.
note: Elizabeth gave birth to John the Baptist
Jesus cousin.
