ST JOSEPH THE WORKER 


SPECIAL PRAYERS FOR ALL WORKERS

In the name of the + Father, Son, and Holy Spirit +

As we celebrate St. Joseph the worker today, may you also be celebrated with the work of your hand.
May your places of work and businesses become channels of blessings to you and your family. 

Therefore...
May the good Lord bless and keep you
May He bless you and your family
May He bless the work of your hand
May your business become a blessing
May your work make you wealthy

Whatever work or business you lay your hand upon shall prosper
As St. Joseph use to proceed from his carpentry work to cater for his family, so shall the good Lord make your little earning to be sufficient to cater for you and your family in Jesus' name.

As a worker.....
You will not go into bankruptcy
You will not go begging
You will never be put to shame
You will continue to be the head and not the tail of your family
No evil shall wreck your work or business

May no evil befall you, your family members, friends, and acquaintances.
May you never labour in vain

These and many more we ask through our Lord Jesus Christ your Son, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, God forever and ever, Amen.

In the name of the + Father, Son, and Holy Spirit +

May devotion commences today, let's endeavor to pray our rosary daily and attend the church program organized for the May devotion. 

Peace ✌️ be with you 

Rev. Fr. Segun Oladeji, CRS.

DO YOU KNOW WHY AND HOW JESUS OVERCAME HIS TEMPTATION?

 Sunday, February 26, 2023. FIRST SUNDAY OF LENT (A) First Reading. Genesis 2: 7-9; 3: 1-7 Psalm. 51: 3-6, 12-14, and 17 (R. cf. 3a) Second Reading. Romans 5: 12- 19 Gospel. Matthew 4: 1-11 TOPIC FOR REFLECTION  YOUR DESIRE IS YOUR TEMPTATION.  Do you know why JESUS did not fall into temptation? It is because...  1. He is divine and not of the flesh; remember, only flesh is tempted and not the Spirit.  2. He came from Heaven, and not from the earth.  3. He is in the world, but not of the world.  4. All that exists on earth was created THROUGH HIM, AND WITH HIM, AND IN HIM. So, how can what he creates tempt Him the creator? 5. He came to save and to teach us how to be saved, by extension, how to overcome temptation.  I will like to quickly remind us that all temptations in life fall under 3 categories. They are...  1. PLEASURE  2. POWER  3. POSSESSION.  Jesus was tempted by these 3 categories.  They are as follows:  1. The temptation of pleasure: Turn these stones into bread. Jesus did

 *Sunday, October 22, 2023*  29TH SUNDAY IN ORDINARY TIME YEAR A  *MISSION SUNDAY*  First Reading. Isaiah 45: 1, 4-6 PSALM 96: 1, 3-5, 7-10 (R. 7b) Second Reading 1 Thessalonians 1:1-5 Gospel. Matthew 22: 15-21 TOPIC FOR REFLECTION  *IF JESUS WAS NOT RESPONSIBLE, WILL YOU FOLLOW HIM?*  Today is mission Sunday, and for anyone to live a fulfilled missionary life, such ought to be a responsible person. No one can survive on a mission land if he lacks good character. I hope you know that Jesus' good character attracted us to follow Him in His mission. So will anyone with good character on a mission influence or attract people to God? Good character attracts, while bad character repels. Jesus is a good man because his ways of life are good. Christianity is a good religion because it is Jesus' way of life. Therefore, Christianity is a way of life. So, since Christianity is a way of life, it teaches how to live a good responsible life filled with a high sense of responsibility.  A Chr

DO NOT BE A HYPOCRITICAL PERSON

 *Friday, October 20, 2023*  Weekday (28) Ordinary Time A First Reading. Romans 4: 1-8 Psalm 32: 1-2, 5, 11 (R. see 7). Gospel. Luke 12: 1-7 TOPIC FOR REFLECTION  *TRUST GOD, BUT AVOID HYPOCRISY*  Jesus said, "Be on your guard against the yeast of the Pharisees – that is, their hypocrisy".  It simply means if you know anybody with the under-listed attributes, please in your interest and for the sake of your future, avoid them. If you can't avoid them, learn to manage them. Do not keep such persons as friends, unless you want to ruin your future. So, avoid: 1. The people who are not real, fake by nature. 2. Those who teach the wrong doctrine 3. Those who blackmail and slander people. Note: Be aware that those who gossip to you about others have already massacred you to other people before coming to you. Avoid them. 4. Those who are pretenders  5. Those who are full of eye 👀  service 6. Those who live and dine with envy and jealousy. etc. Jesus went further to say, that ev
