REFLECTION

FRIDAY - 01 / 11 / 2013
SOLEMNITY OF ALL SAINTS

SECOND READING; 1st John 3:1-3. 

Beloved: See what love the Father has bestowed on us that we may be called the children of God. Yet so we are. The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him. Beloved, we are God's children now; what we shall be has not yet been revealed. We do know that when it is revealed we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is. Everyone who has this hope based on Him makes himself pure, as He is pure. 

GOSPLE Matthew 5:1-12a.

When Jesus saw the crowds, He went up the mountain, and after He had sat down, His disciples came to Him.He began to teach them, saying: 
Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. 
Blessed are they who mourn, for they will be comforted. Blessed are the meek, for they will inherit the land. Blessed are they who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they will be satisfied.

Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy.Blessed are the clean of heart, for they will see God.Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called children of God.

Blessed are they who are persecuted for the sake of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.Blessed are you when they insult you and persecute you and utter every kind of evil against you (falsely) because of Me. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward will be great in heaven. Thus they persecuted the prophets who were before you.

THE GOSPLE OF THE LORD, 
PRAISE TO YOU LORD JESUS CHRIST! 

REFLECTION :
(I believe in the communion of saints)

After confessing the Holy Catholic Church, the Apostles Creed adds "the Communion Of Saints." In a certain sense this article is a further explanation of the preceding: "What is the Church if not the assembly of all the saints? The communion of saints is the Church... The communion of the Church of heaven and of earth:
The intercession of the saints: Being more closely united to Christ, fix the whole Church more firmly in holiness.

St. Dominic - (Do not weep, for I shall be more useful to you after my death and I shall help you then more effectively than during my life) 
St. Thérèse of the Child Jesus - (I want to spend my heaven in doing good on earth). 
Our communion with the saints joins us to Christ, from whom issues all grace, and the life of the People of God itself in the one family of God: 

For if we continue to love one another and to join in praising the Most Holy Trinity - all of us who are sons of God and form one family in Christ - we will be faithful to the deepest vocation of the Church. The Holy Eucharist, by which the unity of believers, who form one body in Christ, is both represented and brought about" The term "communion of saints".

BLESSED ARE WE IF WE ARE PERSECUTED IN ANY WAY FOR CHRIST SAKE. WE KNOW FOR SURE WE ARE GOING TO MARCHE ON WITH THE SAINTS TO THE HIGH THROWN OF GOD IN HEAVEN! 

PRAYER :
O God, You ordained that Your only-begotten Son
should be lifted up above the earth and draw all things to Himself. Mercifully grant that, through the merits and examples of all Your Saints, we may be lifted up above all earthly desires and be found worthy to come to Him heaven. We pray through the merits of Your Son Jesus who lives and reigns with You in the unity of the Holy Spirit, one God for ever and ever. 
MOTHER MARY, QUEEN OF ALL SAINTS! PRAY FOR US, 
AMEN!!!!

ORIGIN OF FMMG cont.

THE CITY OF MARY

(Matt. 13:44), "The Kingdom of Heaven is like Treasure hidden in a field which someone has found; he hides again, goes off in his joy, sells everything he owns and buys the field."

That was exactly what a Benedictine Monk, leader of FMMG did!

In 2008 when he was reciting Holy Rosary walking from his Monastery to the Road side of Kumasi - Sunyani, arriving at the village of Sokwai 2km from the Akwaboa Monastery. 
All of sudden he saw a place written "The City of Mary" and there was a church in the middle of two storey buildings. and there were Religious and laity people coming from the two buildings, they all went to the church praying and singing together as a "COMMUNITY"! Looking at this Marvelous group, he noticed some members of the children of Mary society.
After a few minutes the vision disappeared and he realized he was standing by the road side where cars were passing by.

He returned to the Monastery reflecting on the vision what it might mean? A future Community of Children of Mary? A Retreat center? A Religious Convent?

First of all, he thought of getting that Land and so he went to the king of that Lord and bought it with the help of his sister who live in Italy in the name of "Children of Mary". 
The Land is 7 Plots separated from other plots with roads around it. "7" A perfect number PLOTS to build a "CITY OF MARY" where both priests, Religious and Laity will leave together as "ONE FAMILY" and a Retreat House for all who need a peaceful place to pray for discernment, for the Gifts of the Holy Spirit, release from tensions, spiritual healing and union with the Mother of God, founder of FMMG. 

When the leader first saw the 4 LETTERS (FMMG) in Rome 2012, The Mother of God told him: It means "FAMILY OF MARY MOTHER OF GOD" bring all My children together as "ONE FAMILY" and I will be with them always! 
Since the beginning of FMMG monthly NOVENA with members in U.S.A, GHANA and EUROPE in March 2013 till now, there has been many signs that confirmed the presence of the Lord and His Blessed Mother among the FMMG group. And so this FAMILY will continue on the "CITY OF MARY LAND"

The CITY OF MARY will be a Home for all children of Mary members leaving Abroad and Ghana, whenever those living Abroad come home for holidays, they have a home and a Retreat Center. 

WE NOW APPEALS TO ALL PIONEERS OF CHILDREN OF MARY, OLD AND NEW MEMBERS, FMMG MEMBERS, FRIENDS, FAMILIES, PATRONS, BENEFACTORS AND BENEFACTRESSES AND SPONSORS to help build the "CITY OF MARY" in honour of the Mother of God.

Those who have been touched by the Holy Spirit to contribute towards this PROJECT should kindly contact us: VIA.

DO NOT BE AFRAID, I AM WITH YOU!

DO NOT BE AFRAID, I AM WITH YOU!

FMMG is Blessed with the presence of our Blessed Mother.
Our 16th October VIGILS PROGRAM that we started at 8pm U.S.A Time, 12am Ghana Time, 1am U.K Time and 2am Europe Time has brought  much Joy, Hope and Encouragement to the Family Of Mary Mother Of God (FMMG).

 Although few members were able to participate due to time different in countries but it was Amazing to see members from the whole 3 Nations: Ghana, U.S.A and EUROPE participating as representatives for our absent brothers and sisters.

We started the program with the Divine Mercy Chaplet (for the forgiveness of our sins) followed by the Immaculate Heart of Mary chaplet and prayers to the Holy Spirit.
After all this prayers and Hymns to our Mother and Holy Spirit, we experienced the strong Power of the Holy Spirit that some of us couldn't move and control ourselves.

About four (4) of us had a similar Vision and messages that proved the presence of the Holy Spirit in our midst! And so we shouldn't be Afraid to share with others, this Wonderful experience with our Blessed Mother and Angels.

* we first saw St. Michael the Archangel descending with his sword to protect us, and then later our Blessed Mother with many Angels.

* Our Blessed Mother told us:
"I am the Patroness of the World, I carry you all in my alms, don't worry! Do Not Be Afraid!
* She said we should pray, pray and pray, then showing us Rose flowers in her palms falling on us, meaning; the Rosaries we offer Her becomes Roses (Rosa-Mystica) and a Gifts for us.
*She said: Each and everyone of us have a special Gift that we have to Unites ourselves as "ONE FAMILY" and help with our prayers to save this sinful world!

* She was happy with our efforts to build the "CITY OF MARY" in Her honour and encouraged us to do what our strength can do on the Project.
* She was also happy with our unity and love towards Her and so She assured us of Her protection and assistance.
* She said: I love you all my dear children, unites yourselves, you are "ONE FAMILY". (Then leaving us 3 Roses with words)
UNITY, LOVE and PEACE.
(Then repeating peace! Peace! Peace!) Salve.

Let us thank the Lord and our Blessed Mother for all the graces we have received.

Mother Most Loveable,

Pray for us. Amen!

Message from Our Mother during the night Vigil 16 oct 2013: and Mother Mary says- in a loving but slightly disappointed-voice (cos she's never stopped loving& caring) why are you so so worried??She showed how she carries us in her arms ! And then said ; You are OK my children! Look, You are SAFE ! ( Then she showed how she wish that Whatever is bothering her children we will always Sit at the alter and talk to her for she hears/listens & intercedes tirelessly )

Then I taught of unanswered prayers perhaps that's why we weary (it was as if she heard it loud & clear )

Then she continued demandingly: Pray pray pray for am the PATRONESS of the World! (To assure us of her motherly presence / love intercession /protection ) Be at PEACE and don't  be weary!!  !and she left each and every1 of us a gift. 

Oh Mother Mary PATRONESS of THE WORLD : PRAY FOR US TO TRUST IN YOUR MOTHERLY LOVE and CARE Amen

THE ORIGIN OF FMMG

FMMG originated in Ghana at Old Tafo - Kumasi, about 17years ago. In 1996 a group of catechism children formed a Society called Children of Mary led by their Catechism Teacher "Uncle"(now a Catholic Benedictine Monk) with the intention of imitating the virtues of Mary Mother of God and the lives of the saints.

They come together twice every week to study the Holy Scriptures and the lives of the Saints.
They pray Holy Rosary everyday as their assignment for the world peace, priests, sick people, souls in purgatory, conversion of sinners and all those that needs their prayers. They go to hospitals every Sundays to visit the sick and console them and assists parish works.

In August 1996, they went to Buoho Grotto of our Lady of Lourdes in Kumasi, for 3 days Retreat on the Occasion of Mary Assumption Feast.

During their retreat, they were all filled with the Gifts of the Holy Spirit; some of them had the gift of vision, healing, prophecy and so forth.

The Blessed Virgin Mary spoke to them through a 12 year old girl among them. She told them to "pray the Holy Rosary everyday for peace, conversion of sinners and the souls in purgatory."  

When they returned to their parish, many children joined the Society and they extended the society to the other parishes in the Diocese.

The following month in September 27th 1996, they went for another 3 days retreat at Abono Grotto for the preparation of the Rosary month program.

At the Grotto they were Blessed with many Graces and Revelations. The Blessed Virgin Mary said to them:
"I wish one day all my children come together as one FAMILY and pray Rosary with me. Meet always and pray the Rosary "

When they returned to their parish, in October they led the Rosary program of the parish and there were manifestation from Jesus and Mary and that converted many people as their parish priest gave a testimony that during that Rosary program, he spent hours listing to confession and people cry for their sins whereas previously only few people comes to confession. And so he supported and encouraged them.

The pioneers grew up and  some of them have become priests and Religious Sisters and some have married, others have traveled Abroad.

On the 27th March 2012, the leader was in Rome for his Monastic Formator's course and he saw 4 LETTERS (FMMG) he prayed for the meaning and our Lady told him: "it means FAMILY OF MARY MOTHER OF GOD, gather all my children and bring them together as one FAMILY! 

(He thought it was impossible to bring the scattered members in U.S.A, EUROPE and GHANA together as "ONE FAMILY", but with God all things are possible!)

Exactly one year! On the 27th March 2013, one of them living in U.S.A suggested to the leader that they do a NOVENA together and the leader informed other members living in Europe and U.S.A. So 13 of them started their first NOVENA to the Divine Mercy on internet.

After their first NOVENA they decided to continue every month, and so the following month they did a second NOVENA to the IMMACULATE HEART OF MARY. It was during this NOVENA that the Blessed Mother of God revealed many things to them:

  • Why She chose 13 of them in reference to the Fatima apparition on 13th of every month
  • The year 2013 that She want them to form FMMG and include all her children, as She showed the 4 Letters to the leader in March 2012. 
  • In that NOVENA, She also granted their prayer requests; Some of them miraculously received their "permit papers" and many more. They were convinced that the Mother of God has really visited them!


Their 3rd NOVENA was to the Holy Spirit in preparation for Pentecost Feast and that brought renewal of their Gifts and graces.

Now, what are the VISION of FMMG? ..

The FMMG intend to build A "CITY OF MARY" in Kumasi-Ghana where the Mother of God showed their Leader a LAND written "City of Mary" in 2008 where both Religious and Laity were praying together in a chapel whiles he was praying Rosary on the road side....

The Magnificat🙏Said after evening 6pm angelus 

My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord,
my spirit rejoices in God my Savior
for he has looked with favor on his lowly servant.
From this day all generations will call me blessed:
the Almighty has done great things for me,
and holy is his Name.

He has mercy on those who fear him
in every generation.
He has shown the strength of his arm,
he has scattered the proud in their conceit.

He has cast down the mighty from their thrones,
and has lifted up the lowly.
He has filled the hungry with good things,
and the rich he has sent away empty.

He has come to the help of his servant Israel
for he remembered his promise of mercy,
the promise he made to our fathers,
to Abraham and his children forever.  

(Glory be to the Fr, Son & Holy Spirit --as it was in the beginning is now sand ever shall be world without end AMEN)

WEDNESDAY - 09 / 10 / 2013

WEDNESDAY - 09 / 10 / 2013
Wednesday of the Twenty-seventh Week in Ordinary Time
 GOSPLE Lk 11:1-4

Jesus was praying in a certain place, and when He had finished, one of His disciples said to Him, “Lord, teach us to pray just as John taught his disciples.”
He said to them, “When you pray, say:

Father, hallowed be Your name, Your Kingdom come. Give us each day our daily bread and forgive us our sins for we ourselves forgive everyone in debt to us, and do not subject us to the
final test.”

THE GOSPLE OF THE LORD,
PRAISE TO YOU LORD JESUS CHRIST!

REFLECTION :

In In today's Gosple, Jesus teaches us to address God as "our Father" and to confidently ask Him for the things we need to live as His sons and daughters. We can approach God our Father with confidence and boldness because Jesus Christ has opened the way to heaven for us through His death and resurrection.

When we ask God for help, He responds with grace and mercy. He is kind and forgiving towards us and He expects us to treat our neighbors the same way and forgive those who wronged us as we ask Him in the OUR FATHER PRAYER to forgive us our wrong doings

We can pray with expectant faith because our heavenly Father truly loves each one of us and and He treats us as His beloved children. He delights to give us what is good. His love and grace transforms us and makes us like Himself. Through His grace and power we can love and serve one another as Jesus taught – with grace, mercy, and loving-kindness.

God's grace frees us from every form of anger, spite, resentment, envy, and hatred. Are we ready to forgive others as Jesus forgives us?"

PRAYER :
Father in heaven, You have given us a mind to know You, a will to serve You, and a heart to love You. Give us today the grace and strength to embrace Your holy will and fill our hearts with Your love that all our intentions and actions may be pleasing to You. Help us to be kind and forgiving towards our neighbors as you have been towards us.
Holy Mother of God, pray for us,
AMEN!!!!

Awake and Build!!!

I AM THE LADY OF THE ROSARY!

At Fatima, on the 13th October 1917, before our Mother performed the Miracle of the Sun. She said:

"I want to tell you that I wish a Chapel to be erected here in my honour, for I am the Lady of the Rosary. Continue to say the Rosary everyday."

In September 1996 at Abono, our Mother said to us:
"I would be happy if all my children come together as ONE FAMILY and pray Rosary with me. Meet always and pray the Rosary. "

In March 27th 2012 in Rome, our Mother showed me 4 LETTERS (FMMG) and said: it means: FAMILY OF MARY MOTHER OF GOD. "I want all my children to come together as ONE FAMILY and I will be with them always. "
(It seems to me it was impossible! And so I didn't do anything about it).

Exactly one year! 27th March of this year 2013, through our Bro. Dennis O. Kuffour, our Mother called 13 of us who are living in EUROPE and U.S.A, to come together and start our First Novena!!!

NOTE WELL NO:13.
*13th of every month-Fatima Apparition!
*13 of us to begin a Novena!
*2013 forming FMMG group!
You could see the link between Fatima message and FMMG.

Back to the church in honour of our Mother. Through our Novena programs, our Mother reminded us of a LAND She showed me in 2008,
"The CITY OF MARY" where both Religious and Laity were praying together as ONE FAMILY, so WONDERFUL!

Does it seems impossible for us to build the "CITY OF MARY?
Is't beyond our strength?
Can't we make the wish of our Mother be fulfill?
With your own free will, won't you be part of this Project?
Should we abandon this wish of our Mother?
Are we ready to take Action of this project or not?

The youngest among us *Marina (a student) has promised to contribute every month towards the Project!
 ( Very Encouraging and our mother is happy with her)
*Our sis. Helena has volunteered and she is promoting this project reminding us everyday as if she is disturbing us. (She is doing her part for our Mother's wish!!)

I strongly believe that most of us are interested to make our Mother's WISH to be fulfill, but we lack COURAGE!!! YES! we all lack COURAGE!!! I'm not excluded! But we need to WAKE UP!! We don't have to be AFRAID! Our Mother is with us, She only need our collaboration!
"Fatima was not built in a Day or a Year" it took time, but someone need to start something before others come in!
When we do something ourselves, it's then that we can appeal to churches, societies and friends to help us.

Why has our Mother chosen us? Why is She still calling us to come together after 17years?
Consider the LOVE of your Mother! How close She is to us.
"Blessed are our eyes! Because it has seen what the prophets wanted to see and did not but has revealed to us little children.

*would you help your Mother?
*will you be part of this project?
our Mother knows we are students and some are jobless but She needs our cooperation!
Our Mother is waiting for our responds to Her "WISH"..

The MagnificatSaid after evening 6pm angelus

My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord,
my spirit rejoices in God my Savior
for he has looked with favor on his lowly servant.
From this day all generations will call me blessed:
the Almighty has done great things for me,
and holy is his Name.

He has mercy on those who fear him
in every generation.
He has shown the strength of his arm,
he has scattered the proud in their conceit.

He has cast down the mighty from their thrones,
and has lifted up the lowly.
He has filled the hungry with good things,
and the rich he has sent away empty.

He has come to the help of his servant Israel
for he remembered his promise of mercy,
the promise he made to our fathers,
to Abraham and his children forever.

(Glory be to the Fr, Son & Holy Spirit --)AMEN

GOSPLE Lk 10:17-24

The seventy-two disciples returned rejoicing and said to Jesus, “Lord, even the demons are subject to us because of your name. ”Jesus said, “I have observed Satan fall like lightning from the sky. Behold, I have given you the power ‘to tread upon serpents’ and scorpions and upon the full force of the enemy and nothing will harm you.
Nevertheless, do not rejoice because the spirits are subject to you, but rejoice because your names are written in heaven.

At that very moment He rejoiced in the Holy Spirit and said,“I give You praise, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, for although you have hidden these things from the wise and the learned you have revealed them to the childlike. Yes, Father, such has been Your Gracious will.
All things have been handed over to Me by My Father. No one knows who the Son is except the Father, and who the Father is except the Son and anyone to whom the Son wishes to reveal him.”


Turning to the disciples in private He said,“Blessed are the eyes that see what you see. For I say to you, many prophets and kings desired to see what you see, but did not see it, and to hear what you hear, but did not hear it.”

THE GOSPLE OF THE LORD,
PRAISE TO YOU LORD JESUS CHRIST!

REFLECTION :

Jesus makes it clear to us that the true source of our joy is God Himself, and God alone. Regardless of the circumstances - in good times and bad times, in success or loss, God always assures us of victory in Jesus Christ. Jesus assures His disciples that He has all power over satan and the evil spirits or fallen angels who conspire against us.

Today let us think about the missionary nature of the FMMG : Our Blessed Mother is telling us to take the initiative to go forth with courage to proclaim the love of Jesus without fear because under the name of Jesus Christ, satan and the evil spirits, snakes and scorpions refrain from exercising their naturally harmful behavior when ordered.

When we know the Lord deeply and personally, we have His power working through us. Blessed are we
(CHILDREN OF MARY AND FMMG) that all
these things are hidden from the wise and the learned, but has been revealed to us.
How greatly Jesus desires to share His power
with us to defeat the Enemy.

Let us ask the Lord for this freedom of spirit, this apostolic fervour which helps us to move forward, as brothers and sisters.

PRAYER :
Most High and Glorious God, enlighten the darkness of our hearts and give us a true faith,
hope and a perfect love. Give us a sense of the divine knowledge of Yourself, so that we may do everything in fulfilment of Your Holy will as one family; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
Mother most powerful, pray for us,
Helper of the sick, pray for Eno Mary,
AMEN!
