Thank you for asking. I feel very well in myself thank God, but the doctors and consultants are trying to figure out how to fix a problem with my kidneys. As long as the kidneys don't fail, Julia will be jogging along. LOL Hope you are keeping well too SgCatholic. Thanks to all who replied, it is an honour to remember as many souls as possible through Holy Masses. Hope God will perform many wonderful miracles of Grace for everyone who turns to Him in their daily concerns. Jesus said when we say "Thy Will be done on earth as it is in Heaven." We are asking Him to take care of everything. How awesome. We just Trust, and He does the rest.
I remembered that you mentioned some trouble with your kidneys, and that is why I asked. I am glad that you feel well; well enough to go on pilgrimage and also attend all the masses where you so kindly remember us on MOG forum. I will keep you in my prayers. Please God, the problem with your kidneys will miraculously disappear.
SgCatholic. I enrolled Padraig and Mother of God Forum family at the Shrine at Aylesford where they will be remembered each day of the year in Holy Mass. This is one remembrance, I have done this for my own family members for years. At the Shrine while there for the Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel, all these were brought during Holy Mass and entrusted to God's care through the Immaculate Heart of Mary. At each Holy Mass attended in my own parish, I bring Padraig and those who are seeking God through Padraig's Forum, with their families to God. Especially those with acute needs and concerns, and trust God will take care of us all. There are of course others to be remembered. So when people chatter before Mass, it is quite a challenge to focus on the job in hand, and get all the souls possible mentioned, ready for the Angels to take to the Altar at Offertory time. I hope that explains and clarifies everything for you. I may have misunderstood your question. So here is another option. On the Friday morning when we set off for Aylesford, we stopped off at the hospital where I had a blood test done. Then when we returned on the Tuesday lunchtime, we stopped off at the hospital where I had another blood test done. Then on the Thursday I was admitted to hospital for the day to get biopsy done under CT scan, and I am waiting for the results. I won't be able to attend Mass if they put me in a hospital bed for some procedure, so those days intentions will be covered by the Mass enrolments at the Shrine in Aylesford. Sorry if that is confusing.
Praying! Dear Lady, hold, guide, and protect this family in the depths of the Immaculate Heart! Bathe them, Jesus, in your merciful Love! Safe in the Refuge of the Immaculate Heart!
Love you, Julia! May our generous Lord touch and restore your kidneys! Safe in the Refuge of the Immaculate Heart!
Julia, Thank you, this is very kind of you. I pray that everything goes well with your testing and that you receive good results!
Thank you Julia. I will do a similar Mass intention for you and l frequented of the forum when I next visit Knock Shrine. I will probably be there on Sunday
I have had the biopsy, but no results yet. Expect the consultant will let me know on the next appointment 9th August. Thank you all for your prayers, and continue to remember all here as a family at each Holy Mass. God bless.
Another July 16th; Our Lady of Mount Carmel at Aylesford in Kent, UK. 2018. Padraig and all forum members and their families remembered each day at Holy Mass for another year. Safe in the hearts of Jesus and Mary. A Prayer to offer if you are in need of Heavenly assistance. O beautiful Flower of Carmel, Most fruitful vine, splendour of heaven, Holy and singular, who brought forth the Son of God, Still ever remaining a pure Virgin, assist us in our necessity. O Star of the Sea, help and protect us! Show us that thou art our Mother!
Thank you so much Julia! I really appreciate this. I will remember you especially at Mass this evening
Thanks Julia!! I was thinking a lot or Our Lady of Mount Carmel in the days around her Feast Day. I noticed in her prayers at mass they kept talking about, 'Vision'. ..and time and time again at the readings at mass the last few days I see the word, 'Vision', repeated. Vision as regards to seeing God. As is written, 'Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God'. This is a very Carmelite thing this, the vision of God, seeing God in prayer. Our Lady of Mount Carmel is so beautiful.
Thank you, thank you Julia! We can all use more prayers and this is significant, having Masses said! May God richly bless you!
Oh, Julia. I am just now seeing this. There is no greater gift and thank you doesn't seem enough! I remember visiting Aylsford as a child with my mother when my father was serving in the USAF stationed at West Ruislip. My mother and I returned there on a "Martyrs of England" pilgrimage about 15 years ago. It seems particularly wonderful to me that I will be able to picture the setting of this Mass every day. I had just finished asking our Lord for some solace in the midst of my particular crosses and here it is! I hope there are many jewels in your crown in Heaven. Thank you for your great kindness.
