This is the movement of the Holy Family.

Welcome to our Rosary meditation.

Well, I just finished giving my grandson his first lesson on how to live in the wild

by teaching him how to drink out of the garden hose. Now Teresa reminded me there are no

hoses in the wild, but I told her one must take beginner steps in these things. So let's begin in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.

Amen.

Let's offer this Rosie for all those who we've promised to pray for, especially we pray for the value them both amendment

to protect the unborn here in Kansas.

And through the intersection of Blessed Pauline Jericho, we pray for Christian Moffitt in the

ICU for a successful surgery for Olivia Canili, for the healing of Damien, and for the healing of Margot.

Now the day of our death should be the best day of our lives

if we prepare well, because we will be entering heaven. To prepare well for heaven means to pursue heaven during our time on earth.

That means to pursue holiness.

For heaven and holiness are the same thing.

Only those who are holy enter heaven.

Therefore we must cooperate with God to become holy before we can enter heaven.

But what is holiness?

Holiness is to achieve the purpose for which God created you and he created you to share in his own divine life and then live as a son or daughter of God.

And what does that look like? Well that is what Jesus describes in the

sermon on the mount and that's why we are going to meditate on it step by step.

But many still think it's not their calling to become holy, to become

a saint. But if your destination is heaven and to be in heaven is to be holy, then it is your calling.
