Paul’s Plans; Need for Prayer
A reading from Saint Paul’s Letter to the Romans 15, 22 – 33:
That is why I have so often been prevented from coming to you. But now, since I no longer have any opportunity in these regions and since I have desired to come to you for many years, I hope to see you in passing as I go to Spain and to be sent on my way there by you, after I have enjoyed being with you for a time. Now, however, I am going to Jerusalem to minister to the holy ones. For Macedonia and Achaia have decided to make some contribution for the poor among the holy ones in Jerusalem; they decided to do it, and in fact they are indebted to them, for if the Gentiles have come to share in their spiritual blessings, they ought also to serve them in material blessings. So when I have completed this and safely handed over this contribution to them, I shall set out by way of you to Spain; and I know that in coming to you I shall come in the fullness of Christ’s blessing.
I urge you, brothers and sisters, by our Lord Jesus Christ and by the love of the Spirit, to join me in the struggle by your prayers to God on my behalf, that I may be delivered from the disobedient in Judea, and that my ministry for Jerusalem may be acceptable to the holy ones, so that I may come to you with joy by the will of God and be refreshed together with you. The God of peace be with all of you. Amen.
The millions of dollars that Our Lady of Prince Edward Island will receive is still in the hands of the court. There is only a certain among now to pay the lawyer and the court and She will receive the money in her account under the name: Our Lady of PEI Inc. So if you can help me to find this money $5,000 then the money will arrive and we can begin planning for the two monasteries and the Shrine in Her honor. If you wish to send a good amount then it would be better to send it via bank to bank. Phone me and I will tell you what you should do. Thank you very much.
Below you will find the message of Our Lord and Savior given to Father Melvin. Jesus spoke to him these words,
“I bless you My brother Melvin and all My brothers and sisters who work every day in union with Me that you may grow in holiness by following all that I have taught you.
Saint Paul’s letter to the Romans is coming to an end and he wrote beautifully to all My followers explaining to them what they are to do to follow Me here in this world and the eternal glory you will receive in the life after this one. When he wrote this letter, he had not visited Rome yet and he tells the Romans that he wants to come and visit them on his way to Spain. But before going towards Spain he tells the Romans that he has to go to Jerusalem to bring the contribution that the Gentiles in some countries have given him for the poor in the Jewish nation. You know that he went to Jerusalem and there he was arrested and slowly he made his way to Rome as a prisoner. He stayed in Rome for a few years before he was martyred there. He calls on the people of Rome to pray for him and I know that they did pray for him. I can tell you that Saint Paul is a great saint after all the great work he did as an apostle traveling through many countries for many years. You can ask him to intercede for you and he will surely do so. I bless you all.”
