40 Days for Life Starts Today! Pray & Fast


40 Days for Life begins today, folks.   Do something!  






We can all fast and pray.  So start there.  We really like this from the 40 Days website:

PRAYER& FASTINGKnowing that “with God, all things are possible,” people of faith and conscience unite in 40 days of prayer and fasting. Christ told us some demons can only be driven out by prayer and fasting. The two go hand in hand. Prayer keeps us rooted in the fact that it is our desire to carry out God’s will. Fasting is a sacrifice that helps us reach beyond our own limitations with God’s help.
Also, even if it makes you a bit uncomfortable, head out to Preterm and pray there.  It is the largest abortion clinic in Ohio.  One gentleman prays for 4 hours in front of Preterm every Wednesday and Friday.  Start with a Rosary once a week and build from there.

Remember, the most efficacious of all prayers is the Holy Mass.  On Saturday, at 9 am, less than one mile from Preterm, St. Elizabeth of Hungary Church has a Latin Mass.  Attend this Latin Mass.  Pray at Preterm before or after Mass.  We must drive this Evil out of Cleveland.

Get involved with 40 Days here in Cleveland.  It is quite easy, just visit their 40 days website.

The world has gone mad, no doubt.  But how should we respond?  Since we are basically only on this Earth for a nanosecond when compared to eternity, perhaps we should find time to talk to God, to discern His will for us, and then to try to do his will…make time to talk with our Lord, to listen to Him, and to beg Him for mercy.  One of the best ways to do this is at Eucharistic Adoration.   "Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration is the adoration of Jesus Christ present in the Holy Eucharist. In the many Churches that have this adoration, the Eucharist is displayed in a special holder called a monstrance, and people come to pray and worship Jesus continually throughout the day and often the night. Christ’s great love for us was shown when he was crucified on the cross to pay the penalty for our sins and give us eternal life. He loves us without limit, and offers Himself to us in the Holy sacrament of the Eucharist. Can we not give Jesus a few minutes of love and adorati...
