    if we ask our moms...they would do anything for us. If we never had a mom...God gave us his. It’s always OK to ask your mother for anything. But sometimes mom says no.

    But remember she will always love us.

    Day 38

    Now is the time for our final push. For those of us that strayed...come back. Entrench and reinforce. We need to finish strong. God sees every moment. Let’s pull one more soul out of purgatory so they can pray for us. Let’s start focusing on the finish line.

    Hi Brother Al,

    I hope that you don't mind that I have posted this video on your thread. I recently discovered this very old movie and I thought that others here might be interested in it. I think that it is especially fitting for the Lenten season. +


    La vie du Christ 1906 The Birth, the Life and the Death of Christ - Silent Short Film - Alice Guy

    Here is some trivia about this film from IMDb:

    "This early extravaganza film used had over 100 extras and in 1906 was the biggest hit that French filmmaking had ever seen. It was Gaumont Film Company's big blockbuster."

    "One of the first films to have actors walking in and out of screen"

    "Most scenes in this early film has all the action taking place in front of a still camera. However, one scene "Climbing Golgotha", includes a early innovative sweeping pan shot."

    "At the time this film was made, its director/producer, Alice Guy, was also the head of Gaumont film production."

    "During a screening in the 1940s in Argentina, an old man, for whom this was his first experience with 'moving pictures', was so taken in and enraged from seeing Judas betray Jesus that he pulled out a gun and started firing at the screen, intent on stopping him from betraying Jesus again"

    It’s easy to walk with Jess when everyone loves him. The real battle starts when persecution begins.

    Pray pray pray

    Happy Palm Sunday!

    loving God...how many times have we acted like Judas. Help us prepare for these special days.

    To Mog family...let’s end this with prayers and penance. May our prayers, by the grace of God, bring a little hope to the world.

    Notre Dame Cathedral to broadcast crown of thorns veneration on Good Friday

    Paris, France, Apr 7, 2020 / 07:00 am (CNA).- One year after the world watched the Cathedral of Notre-Dame de Paris burn, the Archbishop of Paris will display the relic of Christ’s crown of thorns for veneration during a Good Friday broadcast.

    “When Mary is at the foot of the cross, she knows that from the most absolute evil God can always draw a much greater one," Archbishop Michel Aupetit of Paris said in an online press conference on April 7.

    “I do not see any meaning in the cathedral fire or the COVID-19 epidemic. On the other hand, I know that God can bring much greater out of the misfortune that strikes us,” he said.

    The Good Friday meditation before the crown of thorns will be broadcast live from inside the Notre-Dame Cathedral from 11:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. local time April 9, days before the first anniversary of the fire.

    Paris has been under lockdown since March 17 with all non-essential trips from home banned except for a visit to the grocery store or doctor’s office.

    With nearly 100,000 coronavirus cases documented in France, the country’s lockdown measures have been extended until at least April 15, the anniversary of the Notre-Dame fire.

    More than 8,900 people have died in France from COVID-19, according to Johns Hopkins University.

    France’s coronavirus measures have delayed the reconstruction efforts at Notre-Dame de Paris.

    The removal of the melted scaffolding on the cathedral’s roof scheduled to begin March 23 cannot take place under the country’s coronavirus measures, according to the French newspaper, Libération.

    The scaffolding, which was present on the building prior to the April 15 fire due to restoration work, fused together during the blaze. There are an estimated 551 tons of metal still on top of the cathedral.

    The Cathedral of Notre-Dame de Paris formerly displayed the crown of thorns for veneration each Friday during Lent at 3 p.m. and all day on Good Friday. This tradition was moved to Paris’ Church of Saint-Germain-l’Auxerrois this year as the damaged Notre Dame Cathedral remains closed to the public.

    Archbishop Aupetit will lead a meditation on the Passion of Christ inside the cathedral in the apse behind Notre-Dame’s Pietà. He will be joined by Msgr. Patrick Chauvet, rector of Notre-Dame and Auxiliary Bishop Denis Jachiet.

    French actors Philippe Torreton and Judith Chemla will read texts by Charles Péguy, Paul Claudel, and St. Teresa of Calcutta, while violinist Renaud Capuçon will provide musical accompaniment.

    The archbishop said at the press conference that he had originally planned to have a street procession with the relic in Paris, but this was no longer possible due to the strict coronavirus measures in France.

    On Holy Thursday, Aupetit will bless the city of Paris with the Blessed Sacrament at noon from the Basilica of the Sacred Heart on Montmartre, which overlooks the city.

    Under coronavirus quarantine, a priest in Paris blessed his neighbors with a rooftop benediction last week.
