"The more we have established thrones of Eucharistic adoration in this world and possibly perpetual adoration, the more abundantly God will bestow on the world graces of mercy, of faith, of true holiness, a true renewal of the Church, and the salvation of souls." Bishop Athanasius Schneider

".. ask your parish priest to have perpetual adoration in your parish. I beg the Blessed Mother to touch the hearts of all parish priests that they may have perpetual Eucharistic adoration in their parishes, and that it may spread throughout the entire world." Saint Mother Teresa

"The best, the surest and the most effective way of establishing everlasting peace on the face of the earth is through the great power of Perpetual Adoration of the Blessed Sacrament.” Saint Pope John Paul II

To all Catholics, young and old,

in every nation, let's quench Jesus' thirst to be loved!

Let's say to Him, when we receive Him

in Holy Communion,

"I love You, Jesus!"

Words from those who have loved deeply:

"Your Blood now runs in mine, Your Soul, Incarnate God, compenetrates mine, giving courage and support. What miracles! Who would have ever imagined such!” - St. Maximilan Kolbe

"Christ held Himself in His hands when He gave His Body to His disciples saying: 'This is My Body.' No one partakes of this Flesh before he has adored it." - St. Augustine

“Upon receiving Holy Communion, the Adorable Blood of Jesus Christ really flows in our veins and His Flesh is really blended with ours.”- St. John Vianney

"When you have received Him, stir up your heart to do Him homage; speak to Him about your spiritual life, gazing upon Him in your soul where He is present for your happiness; welcome Him as warmly as possible, and behave outwardly in such a way that your actions may give proof to all of His Presence." -St. Francis de Sales

A Worldwide Revolution of Love

"Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him

the name that is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,

in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that

Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." Philippians 2:9-11

Jesus to St. Margaret Mary

"I so ardently thirst to be loved by men

in the Most Blessed Sacrament

that this thirst devours Me..."

    "Thy Will be done on earth

             as it is in Heaven"

To fulfill the desire of the Heart of the Father that the living Sacred and Eucharistic Heart of His Son be enthroned on the altars of the world and loved and adored by all peoples. He created all, and it is right and just, our duty and our salvation that Jesus, Our Lord and Our God, be loved and adored always and everywhere by eveyone.

This is the goal of the coalition Proclaim It: to unite the members of the Mystical Body of Christ in loving and adoring Our Eucharistic Lord, and asking, through the intercession of Our Blessed Mother, to unite all of our brothers and sisters throughout the world in the one Church God became man and founded. Lord, make us one with You in love, in spirit and in truth in Your Holy Catholic Church.

Our Sacred Mission

His Heart is on fire with love for you!

He is thirsting, longing for YOUR love...

Why is God longing for our love?

One reason is that love

is the most powerful weapon we have against evil; it is stronger than satan because God is love, and satan cannot love, but WE CAN!

What especially weakens satan

is our love for OurEucharistic Lord!

That is like an atomic explosion of love

that will save civilization

and bring peace to earth.

Anyone, everyone can be a missionary of Love!

All you have to do is Love!

Love God, specifically love Emmanuel:

God with us in the Most Blessed Sacrament,

with all your heart and your neighbor as yourself.

The amazing thing is that those who actually live the First and Greatest Commandment to love God with all their heart, are the happiest people on earth!  It's true!  Sin leads to misery, love, pure love for God and neighbor, is the summit of a profound peace and quiet joy.  So many souls are searching for meaning, a sense of belonging, searching for love. But most are looking in places that eventually bring sadness, emptiness and sometimes despair. But in the lives of the saints we see those who have peace even in the midst of persecution, and even torture, like St. Lawrence, who was being slowly burned to death on a rack and said at one point, "You can turn me over now.  I'm done on this side." He knew Jesus was there to greet him on the other side.

The bottom line is:

God's Will +(plus) your will = virtue, holiness, peace and true joy

Your will -(minus) God's Will = sin, loneliness, despair and sadness

Saint Augustine offers us these most encouraging words on the importance of prayer for our life and for the eternal salvation of our immortal souls: "He who prays well, lives well; he who lives well, dies well; and he who dies well, all is well.”

What air is to the lungs; prayer is to the soul. If we do not inhale air constantly into our lungs, in a very short time the phantom of death steals our life!

Venerable Fr.John A. Hardon, S.J. "Those who love much, pray much. Those who love little, pray little. Only those who pray go to Heaven."

In the Old Testament, it was the Israelites that were the chosen people, but no longer. God became man and redeemed us on the Cross. His death not only redeemed us, it gave birth to the one true Church and made us, all who believe what the Church teaches and are baptized, a holy nation, a royal priesthood. Now WE are the chosen people, those of every nation that belong to the Mystical Body of Christ--His Holy Catholic Church. Speaking of full membership in the Church, Pius XII, in his Encyclical on the Mystical Body, said it is the society of those who have been baptized, and who profess the faith of Christ, and who are governed by their bishops under the visible head, the Pope, the Bishop of Rome.

With our over 2000 years of Catholic existence, we are very blest to have an almost endless number of prayers from which we can choose from in our rich heritage. It was the Catholic Church that, through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, discerned what writings would make up the New Testament! It was the Catholic Church that 'produced' numberless saints who received with love Jesus in Holy Communion (" Unless you eat the Flesh of the Son of man and drink His Blood, you have not life in you." (John 6 ) . It is the Catholic Church that provides us with a treasure of inspiring prayers and devotions. Listed below are those that are the most necessary. The first, the Holy Mass, is the most important, and is required under pain of mortal sin, on Sundays and Holy Days of Obligation. But for those seeking holiness, daily Mass, daily rosary, and adoration at least one hour a week will bring much grace to you, your family and the world.

TO BE HOLY, LOVE MUCH, PRAY MUCH!

•      Love other people;

•                                        desire holiness;

•                                                        focus on your relationship with God;

•                                                                           pray from the heart;

•                                                                                           make frequent acts of love:

•                                           "I love You, Jesus, in the Most Blessed Sacrament!"

                                               "O Most Holy Trinity, I adore You.

My God, my God, I love You in the Most Blessed Sacrament!"

"Jesus, Mary, I love You, save souls."

• Love God with all your heart: acts of love throughout the day--offering all to God

• Attend the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass daily

• Adore Our Lord in the Most Holy Sacrament of the Altar a minimum one hour a week

• Pray the Holy Rosary daily

• Consecrate your life to Mary

  Attend the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass with love

The Holy Mass is the perfect prayer of Christ's offering of Himself to the Father as a victim to pay the price for the sins of man beginning with Adam and Eve and including all those who will offend God until the end of time. To participate in the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass does not mean to go into the sanctuary to be a reader or an Extraordinary Minister of Holy Communion. To participate most fully is to pray throughout the Mass by listening to, joining in with, or pondering the prayers recited during the Mass; it is a prayer from the heart offering one's life to the Father along with Jesus' offering of His life in union with our Blessed Mother, who joined Her Son in His offering for love of God and for love of us. To love the Mass extends to how we live as we go forth from the Mass; it is to live in the state of grace, to live the life of a faithful disciple of Christ in the way we spend our time, the words we speak, the thoughts we entertain, the charity we show to others, the way we dress, and the prayers we say outside of Mass, especially the time we spend with Our Lord by making holy hours or making visits.

Love and Adore Our Blessed Lord in the Most Holy Sacrament of the Altar

St. John Bosco said: ""Do you want many graces? Visit Him often. Do you want Him to grant you only a few? Visit Him but seldom. Do you want the devil to attack you? Rarely visit the Blessed Sacrament. Do you want the devil to flee from you? Visit Jesus often. Do you want to overcome the devil? Take refuge at the feet of Jesus. Do you want to be overcome by the devil? Give up visiting Jesus. Visiting Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament is essential if you want to overcome the devil. Therefore make frequent visits to Jesus. If you do that, the devil will never prevail against you."

Consecrate your whole life to Mary

and She will take you to the Heart of Jesus!

The principle of complete consecration to Mary was taken up and promoted by St Louis de Montfort (1673-1716), who lived slightly after St Margaret Mary Alacoque. This was a idea which had been gathering momentum in the Church over a period of centuries.

He took the concept of "Holy Slavery" to Mary, as found amongst French spiritual writers, including St John Eudes, and developed it more fully. This ideal of being Mary's "slave" had been present in the Church probably since the time of the earliest writers, so it was not an innovation, and seems to have been present throughout Europe even before the time of St John Eudes.

The notion of "slavery" sounds odd to modern ears, but all it really means is being in a freely willed state of total consecration, total abandonment, to the love and guidance of Mary, in the knowledge that it is the ideal way to get closer to God. Similarly, the idea of consecration to Mary in St Louis' thought, which can be misunderstood, really means consecrating oneself to Jesus through Mary.

St Louis spent most of his priestly life preaching and teaching in western France, basing his teaching on the principle that just as God had initiated the work of Redemption on the basis of Our Lady's co-operation, so He would continue and finish that work by means of her: "It was through the blessed Virgin Mary that Jesus Christ came into the world, and it is also through her that He must reign in the world."

He also stressed Mary's role as spiritual mother of all Christians, basing himself on the fact of her divine maternity and her role in the Redemption. He taught that by means of her faith, trust, love, and holiness, she merited the status of "Co-Redemptrix," one that gives her rights over all mankind, since Jesus' death was sufficient to save all mankind.

I have loved you with an everlasting love,
I have called you and you are Mine.

Make every effort to live in peace with everyone and to be holy; without holiness no one will see the Lord. Hebrews 12:14

“I have made you a light for the Gentiles, that you may bring salvation to the ends of the earth.'” Acts 13:47

"This Gospel of the Kingdom will be preached in the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.” Matthew 24:14

Since she is the spiritual mother of every human being, then we are her "children" in the order of grace, and as children, especially when they are still in the womb or very small, are totally dependent on their mother, so we too are totally dependent on Mary as "Mediatrix" of all graces. This implies that we should be totally devoted to her, which is the essence of the "Holy slavery of love."

St Louis composed a formula of consecration to Mary that emphasized the idea of a person making a total offering of self to God through Mary. He noted that this was really only a renewal of the baptismal vows, in which the individual is completely consecrated to God. He insisted though that this consecration had to be carried over into daily life, as a lived spirit, if it was to be really effective.

St Louis's major work, the Treatise on True Devotion, was hidden away and not found until 1842, when it providentially began to contribute to the resurgence of Marian ideas that took place from 1830 onwards. His work has been approved by a number of Popes. He was finally canonised in 1947, thus indicating that the Church has found nothing objectionable in his ideas on the total consecration to Mary.

St Louis made a number of interesting prophecies concerning the future role of Mary in the Church and the world, including this statement in the True Devotion: "If ... as is certain, the knowledge and the kingdom of Jesus Christ must come into the world, it can only be as a necessary consequence of the knowledge and reign of Mary. She who first gave Him to the world will establish His kingdom in the world." He argued that this was the case "because God has decided to begin and accomplish his greatest works through the Blessed Virgin ever since he created her, [and so] we can safely believe that He will not change His plan in the time to come, for He is God and therefore does not change in His thoughts or His way of acting."

St Louis then went on to describe Mary's future role: "The salvation of the world began through Mary and through her it must be accomplished. Mary scarcely appeared in the first coming of Jesus Christ so that men, as yet insufficiently instructed and enlightened concerning the person of her Son, might not wander from the truth by becoming too strongly attached to her." He argues that the reaso

ns for hiding Mary's importance, that is the danger of her being treated as a goddess by the early Church, no longer exist, and so now God can reveal her and make her better known during the "latter times." This prophecy certainly seems to have been at least partially fulfilled in the nineteenth and twentieth century Marian apparitions and their aftermath, but St Louis apparently goes on to argue that an even more splendid Marian age is to come. He foresaw men and women who in their true devotion to Mary would prepare the way for Christ by living the message of the Gospel in simplicity and humility, and thus inaugurate a future great triumph for Christianity, but one also involving persecution and suffering for the Church. This seems to agree with the prophecies made by St John Bosco in the nineteenth and by Our Lady herself at Fatima in the twentieth century.
