Honey from the Rock:
Roy Schoeman grew up studying Judaism under the most prominent Rabbis in American Judaism. After receiving a B.S. from M.I.T. and an M.B.A. from Harvard Business School, he taught at Harvard. His conversion to Catholicism led to a dramatic refocus of his activities. He later encountered the Virgin Mary!! In his own words: Yet every night before going to sleep, I would say a short prayer to know the name of my Lord and Master and God whom I had met on the beach. A year to the day after the initial experience, I went to sleep after saying that prayer, and felt as though I was woken by a gentle hand on my shoulder, and escorted to a room where I was left alone with the most beautiful young woman I could imagine. I knew without being told that she was the Blessed Virgin Mary. I felt entirely awake (and my memory is as though I had been awake), although I was dreaming. I remember my first reaction, standing there awed by her presence and grandeur, was wishing I knew at least the Hail Mary so that I could honor her! She offered to answer any questions I had. I remember thinking about what to ask, asking the questions, and her answers. After speaking to me a while longer, the audience was ended. When I woke the next morning I was hopelessly in love with the Blessed Virgin Mary, and I knew that the God I had met on the beach was Christ, and, and that all I wanted was to be as much of, and as good a, Christian as possible. I still did not know anything about Christianity, nor the difference between the Catholic Church and any of the hundreds of Protestant denominations. It took me another two years or so to find my way to the Catholic Church, guided by my love and reverence for the Blessed Virgin Mary.

REDEMPTORIST MISSIONS PART3
A look at the work of the Redemptorist Order of the Catholic Church. The film emphasises both the negative and positive aspects of the Redemptorists on Irish life. It begins with the annual Clonard Novena in Belfast and traces the history and origins of the Redemptorism in Ireland both North and South. The order was founded by St. Alphonsus Ligouri in Italy in 1732 and only arrived in Ireland from Europe one hundred years later preaching the Four Great Truths of Death, Truth, Heaven and Hell, using powerfully frightening rhetoric to in its campaign against sin and transgression, The film asserts that the Redemptorist Order exerted a powerful hold on Irish people into the 20th Century - becoming a central aspect of Catholic life into the 1960s. The film shows how the order founded confraternities around the island the Limerick Confraternity being one of the largest in Europe. These were run with militaristic precision, and exerted a significant power and influence on church and state a power that the documentary suggests was used for both good and evil over the poor and abandoned of the country. The film goes on to explore the role of the Austrian priest Joseph Prost who wrote about class divisions between the clergy and the laity since the Great Famine and lead the order to operate upon principles of social equality. The Redemptorists encouraged the use of the Irish language in their rural work a factor that lead to disputes within the Catholic hierarchy. Opposing the practice of church collections, they set about on missions which attempted to identify the social needs of ordinary people, setting up credit unions, a factor that lead to the alleged pogroms of Jewish moneylenders in Limerick in 1904. The film explores the divisions between the Redemptorists whose work with the poor lead to their discreet support of Republican movements in the struggle for independence against Britain - and the larger Catholic Church, which believed that the conflict should be addressed through purely democratic means. In the first years of the Free State, the Redemptorists assumed a stance against the drinking and manufacture of alcohol. In 1931, a young Redemptorist from Árainn, Stiofan Ó Conghaile, attempted to end the manufacture of poteen in Connemara. The film goes on to describe the Redemptorists battle against immoral sexuality and the negative influence this on young men in rural communities. The last section of the programme deals with the influence of the Redemptorists on the Northern Irish conflict, and outlines how mainly through the Redemptorist Clonard Monastery in Belfast the order brought itself directly to the concerns of ordinary people once again, this time in ministering to the besieged Catholic Nationalist community who received little or no support from the Catholic Church. This lead to the prominent role of Redemptorist Fr. Alex Reid in bringing together both sides of the Northern Ireland communities for the Northern Ireland Peace Process. The documentary makes extensive use of archive footage.

CONSECRATION RENEWAL OF TUBO, ABRA TO THE IMMACULATE HEART OF MARY 2016
In an age that grows darker and more dangerous with each passing day, with the threat of nuclear war, among other disasters, always hanging over us, we find ourselves worried for the future - both for ourselves, and those whom we love. Is there any safe and secure haven to which we can entrust ourselves? Is there any person, group, or organization that will shield us in every danger?
Yes, there is – Consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary is the solution to this crisis. Those who do this – be they individuals, cities, or even whole nations - are preserved from countless dangers, no matter how grave, dire, or desperate the situation may be.
But does proof exist that those who consecrate themselves are actually protected?
The answer is yes, and it can be found in the pages of history less than a century ago.
On May 13, 1931 the bishops of Portugal consecrated, in a solemn and public ceremony at Fatima, their entire country to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
This consecration, at which 300,000 faithful attended, was done specifically to place Portugal formally under the protection of the Blessed Virgin Mary. What had Portugal to be concerned about in 1931?
The diabolical scourge of Communism, which had spread from Russia into Europe and was ravaging all in its path, was practically on Portugal’s doorstep.
Only five years later, under the lying mask of a ‘civil war’ in Spain, this infernal and atheistic ideology wrought a devastation as horrific as any war. Most agreed that it was only a matter of time before the Communist carnage in Spain would spread into the defenseless neighboring country of Portugal.
But shortly after the outbreak of the war in Spain in 1936, the Portuguese bishops vowed to the Blessed Virgin, that if She would preserve their nation from the barbarities of the Communist invasion in Spain, then they would renew the national consecration as a public gesture of their gratitude.
On May 13, 1938, they once again gathered publicly - this time to renew the consecration of Portugal to the Immaculate Heart of Mary.
They kept their part of the agreement, for Mary had kept Hers. In addition, Portugal would later be spared the horrors of an even larger conflict - World War II.
In a letter written February 6, 1939, Sister Lucy of Fatima explained to Msgr. da Silva (her bishop) that “In this horrible war, Portugal would be spared because of the national consecration to the Immaculate Heart of Mary made by the bishops.” And in a letter to Pope Pius XII on December 2, 1940, she further explained that “Our Lord promises a special protection to our country in this war, due to the consecration of the nation, by the Portuguese prelates, to the Immaculate Heart of Mary; as proof of the graces that would have been granted to other nations, had they also consecrated themselves to Her.”
(emphasis added)
It should also be pointed out that, even in the heart of the gruesome Spanish ‘civil war,’ Our Lady’s power would still shine forth. Of the 1.5 million Catholic lives that were slaughtered in that vicious anti-Catholic invasion, not a single death occurred within the Diocese of Seville - because the Archbishop of Seville had formally consecrated his diocese to Mary’s Immaculate Heart.

This book gives you a step-by-step guide to reconnecting with God and building a relationship with him, so you can ask him to reveal your spiritual gifts, find your mission, and learn why you were created.

SUMMARY
=======
Robert Francis Kennedy (November 20, 1925 – June 6, 1968) was an American politician and lawyer who served as the 64th United States Attorney General from January 1961 to September 1964, and as a U.S. Senator from New York from January 1965 until his assassination in June 1968. Kennedy, like his brothers John and Edward, was a prominent member of the Democratic Party and has come to be viewed by some historians as an icon of modern American liberalism.Kennedy was born in Brookline, Massachusetts, the seventh child of Joseph P. Kennedy Sr. and Rose Kennedy. After serving in the U.S. Naval Reserve as a seaman apprentice from 1944 to 1946, Kennedy returned to Harvard University and graduated in 1948. He received his law degree from the University of Virginia and was admitted to the Massachusetts bar in 1951. He began his career as a lawyer at the Justice Department but later resigned to manage his brother John's successful campaign for the U.S. Senate in 1952. The following year, he worked as an assistant counsel to the Senate committee chaired by Senator Joseph McCarthy. He gained national attention as the chief counsel of the Senate Labor Rackets Committee from 1957 to 1959, where he publicly challenged Teamsters President Jimmy Hoffa over the corrupt practices of the union and authored The Enemy Within, a book about corruption in organized labor.
Kennedy resigned from the committee to conduct his brother's campaign in the 1960 presidential election. He was appointed United States Attorney General after the successful election and served as the closest advisor to the President from 1961 to 1963. His tenure is best known for its advocacy for the civil rights movement, the fight against organized crime and the Mafia, and involvement in U.S. foreign policy related to Cuba. After his brother's assassination, he remained in office in the Johnson Administration for several months. He left to run for the United States Senate from New York in 1964 and defeated Republican incumbent Kenneth Keating. In office, Kennedy opposed racial discrimination and U.S. involvement in the Vietnam War. He was an advocate for issues related to human rights and social justice and formed relationships with Martin Luther King Jr. and Cesar Chavez.
In 1968, Kennedy became a leading candidate for the Democratic nomination for the presidency by appealing to poor, African American, Hispanic, Catholic and young voters. His main challenger in the race was Senator Eugene McCarthy. Shortly after winning the California primary around midnight on June 5, 1968, Kennedy was mortally wounded wh ...
