We thank you Almighty Father for the gift of life, for your Goodness and Mercy, 

For the unconditional love, you have for each one of us. 

You are with us always, in our joys and in our sorrows and you will never abandon us. 

To your little ones who with a sad and heavy heart feel lost and alone, depressed, suffering from addictions and mental illness, we ask you to send earthly angels to help ease their burdens and to give them the Hope they seek and for which they so desperately need

We pray for our doctors and all health care workers that they never forget that they are chosen by You, Almighty God to be ministers of Your healing Power and that they always choose life for the men, women and children: the souls entrusted to them by You Heavenly Father.

We pray for our politicians and lawmakers that they humble themselves before You!

And we ask this through Jesus Christ Your Son and through the Power of the Holy Spirit

Amen

“Faith and unbelief will come unexpectedly.” Said by the Virgin Mary to Alphonsine at Kibeho Rwanda in 1981 with a request to repeat it to humankind.

2010 Prophetic homily by Irish Priest Fr. Pat Collins has proven correct.

 

“Faith and unbelief will come unexpectedly.” This is one of the so-called mysterious words said by the Virgin to Alphonsine at Kibeho Rwanda in 1981 with a request to repeat it to humankind. Our Lady's warnings at Kibeho Rwanda summarized by Bishop Scott McCaig C.C. 1…An urgent call to repentance and the conversion of hearts: “Repent, repent, repent!” “Convert your heart while there is still time.” 2…A diagnosis of the moral state of the world: “The world is very unwell.” “The world races to its loss, it risks falling into the abyss, which means it will be immersed in innumerable and unceasing tragedies. The world is in rebellion against God. Too many sins are committed in it. There is neither love nor peace.” “If you don’t repent and don’t convert your hearts, you will all fall into the abyss.” 3…The Virgin’s deep sadness: The seers were surprised to see her weeping on August 15th, 1982 (the apparition wherein she predicted the genocide and showed the visionaries what it would look like). The Mother of the Word is strongly afflicted because of the incredulity and the impenitence of human beings. She complains about our bad behavior characterized by dissolution of morality, dissensions, complaisance in evil, and continual disobedience to the commandments of God. 4…“Faith and unbelief will come unexpectedly.” This is one of the so-called mysterious words said by the Virgin to Alphonsine at the beginning of the apparitions, with a request to repeat it to humankind. 5…Redemptive suffering: This theme is one of the most important in the apparitions of Kibeho, especially for Nathalie Mukamazimpaka. For a Christian, suffering, otherwise unavoidable in this life on earth, is an obliged path to reach heavenly glory. The Virgin said to her seers, notably to Nathalie on May 15th, 1982: “No one gets to heaven without suffering.” Or “Mary’s child doesn’t separate with the cross” But suffering is also a means of expiating the sin of the world and to participate in the sufferings of Jesus and Mary for the salvation of the world. The seers have been invited to live this message concretely, to accept suffering with faith and joy, to mortify themselves, and to renounce pleasures for the conversion of the world. Thus, Kibeho reminds us of the place of the cross in the life of the Christian and of the Church. 6…Pray unceasingly and without hypocrisy: Human beings don’t pray, and even among those who do pray many don’t pray properly. The Virgin asks us (through the seers) to pray a lot for the world, to teach others to pray and to pray in the place of those who don’t pray. The Virgin asks us to put more goodwill into praying and to pray without hypocrisy. 7....Devotion to Mary is notably concretized by a regular and sincere recitation of the rosary. 8…The Rosary of the Sorrows of the Virgin Mary: The Seer Marie Claire Mukangango received revelations on this topic. The Virgin likes this rosary a great deal. Known in the past, it had fallen into oblivion. Our Lady of Kibeho wants it to be put in honor and spread in the Church. But this “rosary of sorrows” doesn’t replace the regular Holy Rosary.

9…The Virgin wants a chapel built in memory of her apparitions in Kibeho. This theme carries up from Alphonsine’s apparition on January 16th, 1982 and comes back repeatedly during that year especially by Nathalie, with new developments. (This chapel has been completed). 10…Pray unceasingly for the Church, because strong tribulations are waiting in the coming time: So said the Virgin to Alphonsine, on August 15th, 1983, and on November 28th, 1983.

Stop Marxist equity indoctrination

Canadians, Wake Up! Now!

A few examples of how we have gone totally bonkers

• Abortion Not only the acceptance, but the promotion of the killing of our most vulnerable Canadians and calling it "health care" In 2019, the latest year on record, 83,576 abortions were performed on Canadian women as reported by hospitals and clinics.
• Euthanasia  ( our latest death trap ) There were approximately 16,000 Canadian euthanasia deaths in 2023 and more than 60,000 since legalization.
• Ontario school union warns teachers against saying ‘boys and girls,’ supporting parental rights    In a December email, the union for the Kingston-area Limestone District School Board told staff that they could be disciplined for supporting parental rights, using terms like 'boys and girls,' and holding 'right wing' views.

• And from Parents as First Educators What is happening in Canadian Schools will make you sick 
• From the EPOCH TIMES What Canadian Schools Are Teaching About ‘White Privilege’ and ‘Systemic Racism’

https://www.theepochtimes.com/world/in-depth-what-canadian-schools-are-teaching-about-white-privilege-and-systemic-racism-5533702?utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=left-sharing-widget&utm_content=free

“Anti-racism” is being taught to schoolchildren across Canada, and some parents say their kids have come home distraught. The reason is they feel a wedge between them and their friends driven by an ideology that divides them into two groups: white oppressors and non-white oppressed.

Dan Brooks, a parent in Vanderhoof, B.C., told The Epoch Times about the experience of his daughter Rachel. It’s an experience similar to those reported by others across the country

Rachel has an older sister who is indigenous and never imagined anyone would group her with “racists” because of her white skin. Then an “honoring diversity” course came to her school

“Honouring diversity seems like such a laudable goal, who could disagree,” Mr. Brooks wrote in an email to the school district’s superintendent, which he shared with The Epoch Times

“However, Rachel came home upset about what was being taught, so much so that she walked out of class. She felt that as a white person, she was being attacked and shamed because of her whiteness,” he wrote. “To perceive she was being labeled as a racist or privileged oppressor was deeply offensive and contrary to both Rachel’s experience at home and her values as a person.”

Mr. Brooks said he’s sure the teacher, who he knows cares about Rachel, didn’t intend to hurt her. But the anti-racism content can easily cause anger, guilt, and shame, especially in someone “not mature enough yet to respond to this discussion.” 

This was two years ago; she was 13 at the timeMr. Brooks said he has felt anguish at watching his older daughter, as an indigenous person, struggling with her racial identity, but the answer to racism isn’t to then have his white daughter in a similar internal conflict.

“We feel the concepts of white guilt are incredibly toxic,” he said.Some have also raised concerns about the effects of anti-racism teachings on non-white students.

“I’ve had parents of an indigenous student and an Indo-Canadian student reach out to me and talk about how their kid was taught this pedagogy of the oppressed,” Jeff Park, executive director of the Alberta Parents’ Union, told The Epoch Times. “They had never thought of themselves as oppressed before, and it was traumatizing to them to have to think about their classmates as oppressors and think about themselves as oppressed.”

Ideological Foundations of Anti-RacismAnti-racism is essentially the neo-Marxist ideology of critical race theory going by a different name (though it has, at times, openly been called “critical race theory” by some leading anti-racism thinkers in Canada and abroad).

LGBT talk show host David Oulton threatened after supporting Alberta ‘sex change’ ban

\As you are probably aware, Alberta Premier Danielle Smith recently announced new gender and parental rights policies regarding the “transgender” mutilation of children in Alberta. These policies include a ban on gender reassignment surgeries, a ban on puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones for children under 16, and a requirement for parental notification and consent before a student under 16 can change his or her name or pronoun at school.

Well the backlash was predictable of course. an example I just finished reading this article from Lifesite News about David Oulton, who hosted a show on an LGBT TV network that was canceled because he supports Smith’s forthcoming legislation banning “sex changes” for minors.

from Oulton “Interesting Since I (a gay) voiced my support for@ABDanielleSmith the only threats of violence or homophobic rhetoric directed my way has been from within the LGBTQ community.
He noted how his “coming out” as “gay” was easier than his “coming out as a UCP supporter.”

Mandatory DEI training makes things worse

Ontario school union warns teachers against saying ‘boys and girls,’ supporting parental rights

 https://www.lifesitenews.com/news/ontario-school-union-warns-teachers-against-saying-boys-and-girls-supporting-parental-rights/?utm_source=featured_news&utm_campaign=canada

KINGSTON, Ontario (LifeSiteNews) — A Kingston school union has warned teachers that they can be disciplined for “right-wing” views such as supporting parental rights, according to a leaked email. 

In a leaked December email obtained by independent media outlet True North, the Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation local for the Kingston-area Limestone District School Board (LDSB) told staff that they could be disciplined for expressing a series of opinions, ranging from contradicting the LGBT narrative to disciplining their students.  

“There are some speech/actions that members may not know could result in discipline in Limestone District School Board (LDSB) worksites,” negotiator for Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation district 27 John Vince wrote.

“In other jurisdictions, such as the U.S.A or the U.K. (who’s media many consume) some of this speech is allowed whereas some is not allowed in Ontario, and members may not know this,” he continued. 

“We have asked the Board to inform staff of what speech cannot be said in Ontario and/or the LDSB and they have indicated they are working on this. In the absence of this training, below are some examples of speech and/or actions that if uttered/performed in a worksite could result in discipline,” Vince said. 

According to the email, teachers are not allowed to defend basic biology, such as the fact that there are two genders or only women should compete in women’s sports. It also forbids the opinion that allowing men into women’s bathrooms could make women uncomfortable. It even deters teachers from referring to students as “boys and girls.”  

The board also directed teachers not to support a “right wing” political view such as “Parental rights.” In addition to not being allowed to support parental rights, teachers were told to undermine parents by “keeping secrets” from them. 

Furthermore, the email forbids teachers from exercising basic discipline over their students such as saying, “get off your phone,” “pull your hoody down,” or “why are you thirty (30) minutes late.” 

According to the board, teachers are not even permitted to ask their students: “what is the answer to this question.” 

Additionally, teachers were instructed not to use “labels.” Examples given were “don’t’ label someone as ‘deaf’ but rather as ‘a person who is experiencing hearing impairment,’ don’t label someone a ‘murderer’ but rather ‘a person who experienced ending another person’s life.'” 

Teachers are also forbidden from saying “that certain cultural practices are superior to others (examples: The Scientific Method is superior to other ways of knowing, Western Law is superior to Sharia Law, etc…).” 

The school board apparently encourages students to report their teachers if they contradict this “code” as staff and students are able to file a human rights complaint about a teacher on the front-page of the school board’s website.  

While schools and school boards have becoming increasingly hostile to pro-family values, parents and students are fighting back against the LGBT agenda.   

According to an August survey, 78 percent of Canadians support parents’ right to know if their child identifies as ‘transgender’ at school 

Understanding the Mental Health Crisis - Bishop Robert Barron

Thank you, Bishop Barron

My comments below on this crisis

It's no wonder our children are depressed We are living in an amoral era, the likes of which I have never seen in my lifetime. The bullies are everywhere and they revel in degrading anyone who doesn't buy into the lies that permeate practically every institution on the planet including unfortunately the early education of our children during their formative years. These are the years crucial to the physical, spiritual, and emotional, development and maturity of our children 

The lies begin as early as junior kindergarten in our schools. Gosh, I would love to see more of our Catholic Clergy confront the abuse and the overwhelming negative impact it is having on a little girl who is told by her supposedly trustworthy teacher that she can be a "he" a "she" a "him" a "her" a "they" or an "it" and all the rest of it. The same goes for little boys of course. The teachers are coerced into complying with the threats over their heads

Poilievre (finally) gets it right on the trans issue

Conservatives voted unanimously with the Libs for Bill C-4,

Conservatives voted unanimously with the Libs for C-4, which criminalizes parents and counselors trying to help confused children who are being encouraged by woke teachers to identify as another sex.

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith comes to the Aid of our Children

 Speaking in the nation’s capital, Alberta Premier Danielle Smith said that her recently announced transgender policies partly stem from detrans horror stories where vulnerable youth were led to make highly regrettable and irreversible decisions to their bodies. 

Smith says detrans horror stories inspired new policies

The Premier told reporters she was influenced by the UK’s Tavistock Centre saga, a gender clinic that was forced to shut down after a review found it was reckless in prescribing puberty blockers to vulnerable teenagers. Smith said she was moved by the story of Kiera Bell, a detransitioned woman who later sued the clinic for not protecting her while conducting experimental treatment with life-altering outcomes. 

Between 2010 and 2020, 382 children aged six and under were referred to Britain’s infamous transgender services, some of whom were as young as three years old.

No word from Poilievre

Addressing inquiries about discussions with federal counterparts and other premiers regarding the policies, Smith clarified that no such conversations had occurred.

However, she expressed hope that Alberta’s initiatives might inspire similar reflections and actions elsewhere.

Smith also addressed criticism and concerns surrounding the policies, particularly regarding their potential impact on youth. She underscored the importance of family support and comprehensive counseling to ensure well-considered decisions by young individuals contemplating gender transition. 

“I want to make sure that young people are not closing off options to themselves prematurely,” Smith said.

The debate on parental involvement in their children’s pronouns been reignited after Smith released a video on X where she introduced new policies surrounding gender ideology, trans people, or those who think they are trans.

Alberta’s trans policies meant to protect vulnerable kids, parental rights, women’s sports

L:ast week, the Alberta Premier announced two pronoun policies: for students 15 and under, parents must consent to pronoun changes; for 16-17-year-olds, parents must be informed of the changes.

Another related policy announcement was a ban on hormone therapy / puberty blockers for youth 15 and under (other than those who have already started).

Smith further said that parental notification and an opt-in requirement by parents is required if teachers intend to give formal instruction on gender identity, sexual orientation or human sexuality.

Moreover, the Premier said that ministry approval is needed for all third-party resource materials that woke teachers and school boards have infiltrated into K-12 schools.

Finally, Smith said the UCP will work with sporting organizations to ensure women and girls are able to participate in a women’s only division.

The Vatican is Preparing a Document on Human Dignity that contains “a strong criticism” of immoral trends in contemporary society.

This is good news

 https://www.ncregister.com/news/vatican-s-doctrinal-office-preparing-very-important-document-on-human-dignity-cardinal-fernandez-says

The Vatican’s doctrinal chief has revealed that his dicastery is writing “a very important document on human dignity” that contains “a strong criticism” of immoral trends in contemporary society.

Cardinal Víctor Manuel Fernández, the Vatican’s prefect at the Dicastery for the Doctrine of the Faith (DDF), told the Spanish news agency EFE on Friday that the new document will include “not only social issues but also a strong criticism of moral questions such as sex-change surgery, surrogacy, and gender ideology.”

The news comes days after Pope Francis spoke out against surrogate motherhood, calling it “deplorable” and advocating a global ban. Francis has also often criticized gender theory, referring to it as “dangerous” and “one of the most dangerous ideological colonizations” that blur the differences and value of men and women.

In November 2022, Dutch Cardinal Willem Eijk, a former physician, called for a papal encyclical to combat the false anthropology at the heart of gender ideology. “Gender theory is being pushed in all kinds of organizations and we as a Church have not said that much about it,” he said in an interview.
