| 0:00.0 | This is Holy Family School of Faith. |
| 0:05.0 | Welcome to today's Rosary Meditation. |
| 0:10.0 | This is John Liendcker, Director for School of Faith here in the Archdiocese of Cincinnati, |
| 0:16.0 | joined by my lovely and beautiful wife Lisa holding our brand new baby, well, six-week-old Silas. Let us call to mind all those who have asked |
| 0:25.9 | us to pray for them. In the name of the Father and of the Son and the Holy Spirit, |
| 0:31.3 | Amen. |
| 0:32.1 | Recently a 19 year old from Cincinnati died in a tragic accident. |

| 1:26.8 | the good news of Jesus. I would like to do the same for us today. It's essentially this. We are made for relationship with God. |
| 1:36.0 | Our relationship with God has been broken through sin. In the fullness of time God |
| 1:41.8 | sent his son to bring us back into relationship. |
| 1:45.0 | This relationship is for everyone, but ultimately you have to choose. |
| 1:51.0 | It is good for us to be reminded of this. Good people do not go to heaven. People in |
| 1:57.5 | relationship with Jesus go to heaven. Because of Jesus we can not only be good, we can be holy and become like God. |
