My General’s Charge
Almighty Father, our greatest General, we hear your charge.
The time is NOW. To wait is too late.
We need your courage to hold back any breech upon Christianity. Wicked spiritual forces challenge humanity’s righteousness.
With your mighty power Father, suit us with your full Armor to resist Satan’s tricks of deception and lies.
We raise our shield of Faith in preparation to be led by the Holy Spirit.
Your Word is our sword.
Impart upon us perseverance to stand our ground. Father, filled with purpose, we your children are your warriors on this earth. Assist us to multiply your armies.
We shall pray every chance for our brethren, they need us.
Warriors…pray our Blessed Mother's Holy Rosary, a vital weapon in our arsenal.
Don’t give up. I have faith in you…Salvation is at hand.
Remember…He is sending his Captain.
His Way is to victory. Stay vigilant.
He Is Coming.

To Those Who Stray
My sons and daughters, hear my voice.
Turn not a deaf ear from your Father.
Your life is lost in your living and questions line your path of direction.
You’ve refused my Word. You choke on my Truth.
Ask what strayed you from Me?
Did an answer you waited for not arrive on time? Or not what you expected?
Did it anger you? Release it. Allow it not to darken your heart and soul.
Did I call home a loved one too soon according to your life calendar?
Did it bring you loneliness?
Are you too busy to call on me and feel you can handle life on your own?
You did not search for me. But I was with you even though you kept me out.
Feel not lost or strayed my child, for I AM your refuge and fortress. I have not left you.
Let go of your suffering. My Son waits.
Repent of your sins. Accept your trials with perseverance and patience, it is a time of preparation.
Through his death, you gained Salvation, Forgiveness, His Divine Mercy and eternal life in my kingdom.
Do not gamble that prize.
If you believe, hope and have faith in my Son, you do in Me as well.
I am sending Him. Fear not to receive him. He is your Way.

Fishers of Men and Women
My Lord Jesus, your chosen twelve left everything behind to follow you.
These twelve, you nominated as fishers of men.
Throughout generations their nets have called those willing to do your work. Teach us Jesus to cast out this net of evangelization in your name, to be your fishers of men and women.
My Lord Jesus, instruct us how:
to teach the readiness of your coming,
to spread your Word in praise of your glory,
to walk your way in faith and without fear,
to cast our nets among the poor and those unsteady in their faith,
to love those who do not hope or love you,
to pray for your people and believe in the power of prayer,
to pray for mankind's healing from sinful lives,
to ask for mercy and forgiveness for those whose sins are heavy and
to guide someone so close to conversion.
Jesus, enrich our journey with courage, wisdom and knowledge as we touch all walks of life to bring them into your presence.
As your chosen fishers of men and women, we praise you Lord Jesus and glorify your name evangelizing others with your cross to lead. Amen.

Be Filled
Give thanks and praise to God, our Almighty Father.
Be filled with his love.
Be filled with his law.
As our Almighty Physician, be filled with his healing.
Brothers and sisters, gather at the table of Jesus Christ, our Savior,
Be filled with Him, our nourishment to our souls.
He leaves us not hungry or without thirst.
Be filled with his Word, walk the Way to Jesus and spread His Truth.
Be filled with the Seven Gifts of the Holy Spirit,
And live his Twelve Fruits among God’s people.
Let us gather in the House of our Lord Jesus Christ;
Be filled with his presence in the Blessed Sacrament,
worship him, and praise his Holy name. He is here.
Amen. Amen.
