ETERNAL WISDOM
“Take care that you do not despise one of these little ones; for, I tell you, in heaven their angels continually see the face of my Father in heaven.”
(Matthew 18:10)
Ὁρᾶτε μὴ καταφρονήσητε ἑνὸς τῶν μικρῶν τούτων λέγω γὰρ ὑμῖν ὅτι οἱ ἄγγελοι αὐτῶν ἐν οὐρανοῖς διὰ παντὸς βλέπουσι τὸ πρόσωπον τοῦ Πατρός μου τοῦ ἐν οὐρανοῖς
“One of the greatest evils of the day among those outside the proximity of the suffering poor is their sense of futility. Young people say, ‘What good can one person do? What is the sense of our small effort?’ They cannot see that we must lay one brick at a time, take one step at a time; we can be responsible only for the action of the present moment but we can beg for an increase of love in our hearts that will vitalize and transform all our individual actions, and know that God will take them and multiply them, as Jesus multiplied the loaves and fishes.
"Um dos maiores males do dia entre aqueles que estão fora da proximidade dos pobres que sofrem é o seu sentimento de futilidade. Os jovens dizem: "Que bem pode fazer uma pessoa? Qual é o sentido do nosso pequeno esforço?" Não conseguem ver que temos de pôr um tijolo de cada vez, dar um passo de cada vez; só podemos ser responsáveis pela ação do momento presente, mas podemos implorar por um aumento de amor em nossos corações que vitalize e transforme todas as nossas ações individuais, e saiba que Deus as tomará e multiplicará, como Jesus multiplicou os pães e peixes.
and
The greatest challenge of the day is: how to bring about a revolution of the heart, a revolution which has to start with each one of us.
When we begin to take the lowest place, to wash the feet of others, to love our brothers with that burning love, that passion, which led to the cross, then we can truly say, ‘Now I have begun.'”
O maior desafio do dia é: como fazer uma revolução do coração, uma revolução que tem que começar com cada um de nós.
Quando começamos a tomar o lugar mais baixo, a lavar os pés dos outros, a amar nossos irmãos com aquele amor ardente, aquela paixão, que levou à cruz, então podemos realmente dizer: 'Agora eu comecei'".

There was an inexplicable echo throughout many parts of the recording which impacted the Live Record. RHP team invites you to watch the newly salvaged trailer re-posted today, which also features another well-known broadcaster and interviewer, Peter Herbeck, VP of Renewal Ministries:
Take care and God bless.

FAST & PRAY FOR THE SYNOD ON SYNODALITY: OCTOBER 4-29th, 2023
Fr. Peter Turrone, one of the Spiritual Directors of the Rosary Hour Podcast extended the following invitation:
“Would you like to join us in fasting and praying for the success of the upcoming Synod on Synodality from Oct. 4 to 29, 2023?”
"Gostaria de se juntar a nós em jejum e oração pelo sucesso do próximo Sínodo sobre a Sinodalidade, de 4 a 29 de outubro de 2023?"The servant of God, Dorothy Day, and a group of women fasted and prayed for the success of the Second Vatican Council. They appealed to God that the Council Fathers would be inspired by the Sermon on the Mount in dealing with the prevailing cultural strife in the 60s.
A serva de Deus, Dorothy Day, e um grupo de mulheres jejuaram e oraram pelo sucesso do Concílio Vaticano II. Apelaram a Deus para que os Padres conciliares se inspirassem no Sermão da Montanha para lidar com a luta cultural prevalecente nos anos 60.Following their lead, I ask you to commit to pray to do the following each day for Synod participants:
Seguindo o seu exemplo, peço-vos que vos comprometais a rezar para fazer o seguinte todos os dias pelos participantes do Sínodo:

SYNOD | JOURNEYING ON THE ROAD TOGETHER
Notes from SERMON BY FR. JAMES MALLON
Fr. Mallon explains that the Synod is about “Rethinking how we experience Church as a community of believers journeying together”.
O P. Mallon explica que o Sínodo é sobre "Repensar como experimentamos a Igreja como uma comunidade de crentes que caminham juntos"The SYNOD of Bishops, has a pastoral / theological focus, and the focus of Synodality, Fr. James Mallon, notes is confusing; he does note that but the grand consultation is not a statement / theological document: “The Church changes when people sit in rows vs. sitting in circles”; thus the point of the exercise is the exercise itself. |
O SÍNODO dos Bispos, tem um enfoque pastoral/teológico, e o foco da Sinodalidade, observa o P. James Mallon, é confuso; ele observa isso, mas a grande consulta não é uma declaração/documento teológico: "A Igreja muda quando as pessoas se sentam em fileiras versus sentadas em círculos"; Assim, o objetivo do exercício é o próprio exercício.
Please tune-into the Opening Assembly of the Synod on Synodality to listen to the various voices presenting today.
