Almighty God, we pray in gratitude for our mothers and for all the women of theory who have joined with you in the wonder of bringing forth new life. You who became human through a woman, grant to all mothers Blessing of peaceful heart; the courage they need to face the uncertain future that life with children always brings. Thank You for everything you’re done for us. It’s more than we can ever repay you!
We thank God for the sacerdotal ordination of Frs. Anthony Robert Peter and Philip Asirwalam. May their priesthood be filled with joy, faithfulness, humility, and love for God’s people. May the Lord strengthen them in their ministry and grant them many graces as they begin their sacred vocation in service to the Church.
Lord Jesus Christ, Good Shepherd of our souls, You continue to call, to invite, to awaken hearts. Tonight, we gather in Your presence— not to speak much, but to listen… not to ask for many things, but to discover Your gift within us. In a world filled with noise, teach us silence. In a world filled with fear, teach us trust. In a world searching for meaning, reveal to us the beauty of our vocation. We place before You the young people of our Archdiocese, our families, our priests, our religious— that each may hear Your voice clearly. We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
As Mother’s Day approaches, we are reminded of our Blessed Mother Mary, her humility, faith, and loving service. As her legionaries, may we continue to follow her example and bring Christ to others through prayer and action. Here are some activities we can take part in as Mother Mary’s legionaries. Join the Legion of Mary every Thursday at 8pm as we gather in prayer, fellowship, and service under the guidance of Our Blessed Mother.
The “I AM” Statements in the Gospel of John and the Divinity of Jesus In the Gospel of John, Jesus Christ, makes a series of profound declarations known as the “I AM” statements. These are not merely descriptive phrases, but powerful revelations of His identity and divine nature. The phrase “I AM” itself holds deep significance, echoing God’s self-revelation in the Book of Exodus, where God declares, “I AM WHO I AM” (Exodus 3:14). By using this expression, Jesus is not only teaching about spiritual truths but also identifying Himself with God. Each “I AM” statement reveals a unique aspect of who Jesus is: “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life” (John 14:6) highlights that Jesus is the only path to a relationship with God, embodying truth and offering life. “I am the Light of the World” (John 8:12) reveals Jesus as the one who brings truth, guidance, and clarity, overcoming the darkness of sin and confusion. “I am the Good Shepherd” (John 10:11) emphasizes His loving care, protection, and willingness to sacrifice His life for His people. “I am the Bread of Life” (John 6:35) shows that Jesus is the source of spiritual nourishment and eternal satisfaction. Just as bread sustains physical life, He sustains the soul. “I am the Resurrection and the Life” (John 11:25) declares His authority over death and His power to grant eternal life. “I am the Gate for the sheep” (John 10:7) presents Him as the entry point to salvation, the one through whom believers find safety and belonging. “I am the True Vine” (John 15:1) illustrates the importance of remaining connected to Him, as He is the source of spiritual growth and fruitfulness. Together, these statements form a rich and unified testimony to the divinity of Jesus. They reveal Him not just as a teacher or prophet, but as the life-giver, guide, protector, and Savior. Through these declarations, the Gospel of John invites believers to recognize Jesus as truly divine and to enter into a living relationship with Him.
