Feast Day of St. Joseph
Matthew 1:18-1:25
Birth of Jesus. Now this is how the birth of Jesus came about. When his mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, but before they lived together, she was found with child through the Holy Spirit. Joseph her husband, since he was righteous man, yet unwilling to expose her to shame, decided to divorce her quietly. Such was his intention, when, behold the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and said, "Joseph, Son of David, do not be afraid of taking Mary your wife into your home. For it is through the holy Spirit that this child has been conceived in her. She will bear a son and you are to name him, Jesus," because he will save his people from their sins. All this took place to fulfill what the Lord has said through the prophet: "Behold, the virgin shall be with child and bear a son, and they shall name him Emmanuel."
which means "God is with us." When Joseph awoke, he did as the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took his wife into his home. He had no relations with her until she bore a son, and named him Jesus.

A Shepherd's Sermon of Mercy
A sacred scripture to reflect upon,
Jn 20:19-31
Lord's resurrection brings good news.
Appearing among His Apostles to strengthen them, in visitation.
A new mercy,
A new faith,
A new life,
A new purpose.
An Apostles Cry of Mercy
Thomas called Didymus, a cry to believe.
A blessing he needed to witness.
Wounds that Thomas desired to touch.
This touch meant so much, because it meant that all would be left behind to follow his resurrected Lord for good.
His Lord obliged him, because He knew the importance of belief.
An awestruck response, "My, Lord! My God!" escaped Thomas.
Yet, '...blessed are those who have not seen and have believed'. Says Our Lord.
Thomas need not worry, because at one point we, followers of Christ, echoed the same desire.
For His mercy endures forever.
Shepherd, Fr.ALJ...
Helped us to understand this new purpose. Increased our belief this day, with an encouraging message of Divine Mercy,
To increase our Divine life within.
To increase our knowing that Christ is the center of our faith.
To increase our knowing that Christ (like His Father, Our Father) breathed 'ruah' upon the Apostles of old, will do the same in our new life of faith.
Easter blessings of mercy and grace...

Ascension of the Lord
Our beloved Lord ascends to heaven.
Lifted up, by the clouds out of our sight.
What does it mean to us left behind?
It means to be patient and wait for the promise gift coming from the Father.
It means to be 'my witnesses' says the Lord.
It means the Lord has left me for works to do on HIS behalf.
It means a new faith is born within me.
It means a new purpose is awakened in me.
It means a new adventure waiting on the horizon.
It means to get ready for a new anointing.
It means our heavenly Father God, wants us to partner up with HIS beloved Son, our beloved Savior.
Pastor's Sermon (on the mount)
-awakens a deeper knowledge of our beloved Lord.
-a message anointed to give us hope.
-a message to bring us closer to the Lord
-a message to let us know how special we are to our Creator, Lord in Jesus Christ.
Ascension of the Lord!
A blessing to behold!
