MARY IMMACULATE, MOTHER OF GOD, PRAY FOR US!
Prayer to Our Lady Immaculate
Most holy Virgin, who wast pleasing to the Lord

and became His
Mother, immaculate in body and spirit,
Mother, immaculate in body and spirit,
in faith and in love, look
kindly on the wretched who implore

thy powerful patronage. The
wicked serpent, against whom was hurled

the first curse, continues
fiercely to attack and ensnare

the unhappy children of Eve. Do
thou, then, O Blessed Mother, our queen and advocate,

who from the
first instant of thy conception didst crush

in our single heart,
we implore thee to present at the throne of God,

that we may never
fall into the snares which are laid out for us,

and may all arrive
at the port of salvation; and, in so many dangers,
at the port of salvation; and, in so many dangers,
may the Church
and Christian society sing once again
and Christian society sing once again
the hymn of deliverance and
of victory and of peace. Amen.

PAGMUMURA NG ISANG KANDIDATO SA SANTO PAPA
GREAT SHAME!
"Vulgarity is corruption. When we find vulgarity funny, we have really become beastly and barbaric as a people.” (Archbishop Socrates Villegas)
"Vulgarity is corruption. When we find vulgarity funny, we have really become beastly and barbaric as a people.” (Archbishop Socrates Villegas)
PAGMUMURA NI DUTERTE SA SANTO PAPA
(nagtatanong ang ilan bakit pinapansin ng mga Katoliko ang pagmumura ni Duterte sa Santo Papa)
Siguro nga ugali talaga niya na magmura. Pero iba kapag nagmura ka habang iniaalay mo ang sarili mo bilang kandidato sa pinakamataas na posisyon ng bansa. Tiyak na mapupuna ka ng mga tao kasi gusto mong maging kinatawan ng buong bayan. Kung kandidato ka pa lang e kaya mo nang murahin ang isang lider espirituwal at lider ng isang kinikilalang bansa, ano pa ang makakapigil sa iyo na saktan sa salita man o gawa ang mga taong mas mababa ang katungkulan sa lipunan kapag nakaupo ka na. Tandaan natin na ang dala ng Santo Papa sa atin ay pag-asa at pag-ibig ni Kristo pagkatapos ng Yolanda. Dapat bang murahin ang isang taong nagpapakita lang ng malasakit sa mga mahihirap at sanhi ng laking galak sa buong sambayanan? Mas mali kung hindi mo sasabihin na mali si Duterte dahil likas siyang palamura. Kahit si Roxas pa o si Poe ang gagawa nito, dapat silang maging handa sa reaksyon ng mga taong masasaktan ang damdamin sa gagawin nila. Ang pambansang lider ay sasagot sa pambansang saloobin. Kung nais niyang maging presidente, dapat niyang malaman iyan nang maaga. Isa pa, kahit ang tatay ko ang murahin niya nang ganoon, aalma din ako at hindi iyon palalampasin.
ON DUTERTE CURSING THE POPE
(some people ask why Catholics criticize this man’s action)
Maybe its Duterte’s personal habit to curse. But this time cursing while offering yourself as a national presidential candidate is different. He will definitely be noticed because he aspires to represent the country. If while yet a candidate you can get away with verbally maligning even an international religious and civil head who obviously has not done any filipino wrong, what will keep him from verbally or physically harming another person of less stature in the future. Remember that the pope restored hope in God in so many peoples hearts after yolanda. Why curse a person who came to bring help to the poor and suffering and joy to an entire nation? Its more double standard not to tell him he is wrong just because he is Duterte the habitual curser. Even if Mar Roxas or Grace Poe did that, he or she must be ready to face the reaction of people whose sensibilities he or she hurt. National leaders expose themselves to national scrutiny. He must learn that early in his presidential ambition. Another thing, if i hear him curse even just my father, I will surely not take that sitting down!
