The novena document prepares the reader to celebrate the Feast of the Immaculate Conception by providing daily readings and reflections over 9 days. Each day focuses on a passage from the Gospels related to Mary and includes quotes from saints emphasizing how Mary responded with obedience, care, and compassion. The document guides the reader to emulate Mary by developing a closer relationship with her, listening to God, helping others, and trusting in God's will despite difficulties. It ultimately reminds believers that Jesus gave Mary to all as our heavenly Mother.
Makalah ini membahas sistem imunitas tubuh. Sistem imunitas terdiri dari imunitas alami dan imunitas didapat. Imunitas alami merupakan pertahanan awal tubuh melalui barrier fisik dan kimia, serta sel darah putih seperti neutrofil. Imunitas didapat melibatkan sel T dan sel B beserta antibodi yang dihasilkan. Kedua sistem imunitas bekerja sama untuk melawan berbagai patogen seperti bakteri, virus, dan parasit.
Metabolisme sel dan peran enzim dalam proses tersebut. Enzim berperan sebagai katalisator yang mempercepat reaksi kimia dalam metabolisme, seperti glikolisis, siklus Krebs, dan fotosintesis. Faktor seperti suhu dan pH mempengaruhi aktivitas enzim. Gangguan fungsi hati dapat mengganggu metabolisme.

Mother of Salvation: The Last Title of Our LadyJTM Global
The title "Mother of Salvation" is the last title given by the Holy Trinity to Our Blessed Mother. Why is this title important? Why is it relevant to our times? What is the role of the Blessed Virgin Mary in these tumultuous difficult times that we live in? This seminar answers these questions.
This document provides guidance for observing Lent through creating Nazareth in one's heart by entering into prayer and discernment. It recommends daily practices like lectio divina, rosary, and examination of conscience. The weekly program involves discernment and putting aside guides to have a direct dialogue with God in prayer. It discusses St. Joseph's example of prayer, and the stages of prayer according to St. Teresa of Avila from vocal to contemplative. It relates the visions of St. John Bosco calling him to help boys, and encourages praying the rosary while walking in nature to contemplate the mysteries.
1. Mary responded that she would accept God's will when told she would bear Jesus, despite not being married.
2. Mary coped with this responsibility by traveling to visit her relative Elizabeth for prayer and wise counsel.
3. Mary stayed focused on God as her strength and source of rejoicing rather than the circumstances, keeping God's promises in her heart.
This document provides a summary of Hyung Jin Nim's sermon about sacred love from March 21, 2010. He discusses passages from various religious texts about love and family. He analyzes stories of Jesus and Mary and argues that Christians were longing for the returning Eve, not just a mother-son relationship. True Mother is described as having endured great suffering throughout her life to support and protect True Father. She is presented as the completed and perfected Eve that Christians were searching for.
This document discusses drawing closer to Mary and creating a spiritual home for her in our hearts, like the home Joseph made for her in Nazareth. It recommends daily prayer practices like consecrating our day to Mary, praying the rosary, and wearing the Miraculous Medal. The goal is to help Mary give birth to Christ in us and fulfill God's will. By entering into closer union with Mary through prayer and devotion, we can become true sons of God and apostles of a new spiritual springtime.

The document discusses Mary, the mother of Jesus, based on references from the Old Testament, New Testament, and early Church writings. It summarizes that Mary is foretold in the Old Testament to bear the Messiah, the angel Gabriel announces to Mary that she will conceive Jesus, and Mary responds with joy and obedience. Early Church fathers established Mary as the Theotokos (God-bearer), perpetually virgin, and an important figure in salvation history through her role in the Incarnation.

Probably the most unusual and beautiful Christmas message I have ever been given by the Lord. It's about a love story, about Mary & Joseph & Jesus and a man who may have been a role model for Joseph when he found out about Mary's s
This document provides guidance on creating the spirit of Nazareth in one's heart to hear God's will. It discusses entering into this spirit through prayer, examining the virtues of St. Joseph at Nazareth like obedience and fidelity to one's state in life. The document outlines a daily and weekly Lenten program including prayer, scripture reading and examining one's desires. It emphasizes discerning desires that are in line with God speaking through the Church. The document presents research showing benefits of intact married families and calls us to understand how God wishes to use us for our own families and others. It provides practical recommendations like becoming more aware of spiritual movements and discerning with a trusted mentor.
The document describes plans to start a new youth group called "Ancilla Domini" or "Handmaids of the Lord" in the Immaculate Conception Parish in Mataasnakahoy, Batangas. The group will recruit girls ages 9-15, the same age as Mary, and have them help promote devotion to the parish's patron saint Our Lady of the Immaculate Conception. The young handmaids will receive spiritual guidance and instruction to deepen their faith as the parish prepares to celebrate its 90th anniversary and the coronation of its 148-year-old statue of Our Lady.
This document provides guidance for Catholics on preparing spiritually for Christmas. It seeks to separate fact from symbol regarding the Christmas story and deepen understanding of what it means to be part of the faith community during this season. The summary explores the lives of Mary and Joseph as examples of trusting God's plan. It examines the narrative of Jesus' birth and unpacks the significance of shepherds and Magi being summoned first. Finally, it encourages staying present through meditation and accepting oneself as the "precious present."
The document discusses signs from God that guide believers throughout history. It provides examples from the Bible of signs God gave to the Holy Family, St. Paul, and St. Bernadette. These included angels, visions, prophecies, and miracles. The document also summarizes Marian apparitions like Our Lady of Lourdes and Fatima, where Mary provided signs and messages. It encourages readers to be open to signs God may spontaneously provide, while discerning with the Church, and to read signs in current world events. The overall message is that God communicates through signs to lead people closer to Him.
Jesus had a mortal family and experienced a normal childhood. He was born to Mary and Joseph in Bethlehem and was part of a family with multiple siblings, including brothers James and Jude who later authored scripture. As a child, Jesus grew up laboring with his father Joseph and brothers. By age 12 he had an understanding of his divine role and identity, but continued growing in wisdom and stature through experiencing life's challenges as any other man would.
The women of Proverbs 31 Ministries understand what it means to search for encouragement and perspective during the everyday moments in life.
Now you can uncover God’s truth on good days or hard days, in the car pool line or the doctor’s office with devotions designed to meet you where you are.
This 14 day reading plan is built from the NIV Real-Life Devotional Bible for Women by Zondervan.
- Gabriel was sent by God to Nazareth to tell Mary she would conceive Jesus. Mary was confused but submitted to God's plan.
- Angels also announced Jesus' birth to shepherds and were joined by a multitude singing praise to God.
- Angels play an important role as God's messengers and in protecting believers, but are not to be worshipped as they worship God.
St. Joseph is held up as the model of fatherhood. His heart formed Jesus and allowed for Jesus' human, intellectual, pastoral, and moral formation. St. Joseph is revealed as a just man in relation to God, obeying the angels' messages. He is also the spouse of Mary, loving her as Christ loves the Church. His willingness to take Mary into his home despite the risks reveals his merciful heart. St. Joseph's role in forming Jesus in the home of Nazareth is highlighted.

Introducción. La Obra, una familia dentro de la Iglesia
Un 2 de octubre, coincidiendo con el día dedicado a los ángeles custodios, nació el Opus Dei. Dios sembró en el corazón de un joven sacerdote la inspiración divina para extender una llamada universal a la santidad. Esta invitación nos anima a santificar nuestras ocupaciones profesionales y relaciones familiares en la vida cotidiana. Como ha escrito recientemente nuestro Prelado, esta fecha conmemora “un nuevo aniversario del día en el que el Señor hizo ver el Opus Dei a San Josemaría” (Mensaje del 13 de septiembre de 2023).
Sobre esta base histórica y espiritual, el retiro espiritual de este mes nos ofrece la oportunidad de profundizar en una idea que San Josemaría expresaba diciendo que el Opus Dei es una familia dentro de la Iglesia. Y se nos invita a considerar que cada uno de nosotros, fortalecido por la gracia de una vocación divina, contribuye al hermoso mosaico que constituye la Iglesia Universal.
Esta noción de familia espiritual unida nos invita a considerar más ampliamente nuestra responsabilidad y amor hacia la Iglesia. Nuestro afecto y fidelidad deben expandirse, de manera especial, hacia el Santo Padre, vicario de Cristo en la tierra, cuyas enseñanzas no solo seguimos sino que procuramos difundir con un amor tanto efectivo como afectivo.
Un retiro, en resumen, para reflexionar sobre estas realidades profundas de modo que reconociendo nuestra identidad y misión podamos vivir nuestra vocación en el Opus Dei con una autenticidad y alegría renovadas, al servicio de la Iglesia universal.

A375 Example Taste the taste of the Lord, the taste of the Lord The taste of...franktsao4
It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375
1. On the 8th of December, we celebrate the
beauty of the Virgin Mary, and since it is an
important feast day, we prepare for it 9 days
ahead of time. We call it the novena to the
Immaculate Conception. To live it each day,
we offer you texts from the Gospel for your
personal prayer, along with some ideas from
Saint Josemaria and Pope Francis: we can
learn so much from their affection for
Our Lady.
NOVENA TO THE
IMMACULATE CONCEPTION
2. Gospel of Luke 1: 26-31
“In the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent
from God to a town of Galilee called Nazareth,
to a virgin betrothed to a man named Joseph,
of the house of David, and the virgin’s name
was Mary. And coming to her, he said, ‘Hail,
favored one! The Lord is with you.’ But she was
greatly troubled at what was said and pon-
dered what sort of greeting this might be. Then
the angel said to her, ‘Do not be afraid, Mary,
for you have found favor with God. Behold,
you will conceive in your womb and bear a
son, and you shall name him Jesus.”
God prepared Mary for the mission he
was to entrust to her care: he made her all
beautiful, singular, without stain: in other
words, immaculate. She was born without
the original sin that all of us have due to
the fall of Adam and Eve, our first parents.
From all eternity, before the creation of the
world, God chose Mary, a young girl from
Nazareth, to be the Mother of Jesus, the
Son of God.
WHAT DOES IT MEAN THAT
MARY IS “IMMACULATE”?
3. Our Lady asks in order
to understand God
“But Mary said to the angel, ‘How can this be,
since I have no relations with a man?’ And
the angel said to her in reply, ‘The Holy Spirit
will come upon you, and the power of the
Most High will overshadow you. Therefore the
child to be born will be called holy, the Son of
God.’”
Day
1
Gospel of Luke 1: 34-35
4. Ask Our Lady to help you have a big
and generous heart like hers, available
for whatever God wants for your life,
knowing that, though it may mean
making sacrifices at times, God always
wants the best for us, so that we will be
happy.
“Our Mother listens, and asks a ques-
tion to understand better what the Lord
is asking of her. Then she gives her firm
reply: Fiat! Be it done unto me according
to thy word! This is the fruit of the best
freedom of all, the freedom of deciding
in favour of God.”
SaintJosemariaPopeFrancis
“Mary as a good mother teaches us to
be, like her, capable of making defini-
tive decisions… in the full freedom with
which she said ‘yes’ to the plan God
had for her life… Let us not be afraid of
life commitments, commitments that take
up and concern our entire life! In this
way our life will be fruitful! And this is
freedom: to have the courage to make
these decisions with generosity.”
5. And she replied:
Be it done to me as you wish
“Mary said, ‘Behold, I am the handmaid
of the Lord. May it be done to me accord-
ing to your word.’ Then the angel departed
from her.”

Gospel of Luke 1: 38
6. To know what God wants of you and to
respond like Mary, it helps to spend time
before God in silence, reading and meditating
the Bible. For example, you can pick a pas-
sage from the Gospel, read it slowly, and talk
with God about how what’s being narrated
there (the gestures of Jesus, the apostles’
reactions, the parables…) all have something
to do with your life today.
“Don’t forget, my friend, that we are chil-
dren. The Lady of the sweet name, Mary,
is withdrawn in prayer. You, in that house,
are whatever you want to be: a friend, a
servant, an onlooker, a neighbour... —I,
at this moment, don’t dare to be anything.
I hide behind you; full of awe, I contem-
plate the scene: … ‘Be it done unto me
according to Thy word’ (Luke 1:38). By the
enchantment of this virginal phrase, the
Word was made flesh… I still have time
to tell my God, before anyone else does:
Jesus, I love You.”
SaintJosemariaPopeFrancis
“Today is the right day to thank the
Lord and to ask ourselves: am I a man
or woman of ‘yes’ or a man or woman
of ‘no’? Or am I a man or woman who
looks away, so as not to respond?” May
the Lord grant us the grace to take this
path of men and women who knew
how to say ‘yes’.”
7. And Jesus, who is God and
Man, is conceived in her womb
“Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to
take Mary your wife into your home. For it
is through the Holy Spirit that this child has
been conceived in her. She will bear a son
and you are to name him Jesus, because
he will save his people from their sins.”

Gospel of Matthew 1:20-21
8. Many times your Mother Mary will
have suggested that you help someone in
need, that you smile when you don’t feel
like it, that you say sorry when you get
angry with someone… and a thousand
other things that, perhaps, you haven’t
even realized. To thank her, you can leave
her a surprise by putting some flowers
close to an image of hers, in your parish,
school, or home…
“The beginning of the way, at the end of
which you will find yourself completely
carried away by love for Jesus, is a
trusting love for Mary… I invite you to
discover it for yourself, showing your
love for Mary, opening your heart to
her, confiding to her your joys and sor-
rows, asking her to help you recognize
and follow Jesus.”
SaintJosemariaPopeFrancis
“(Our Lady) tells us to do what she did: not
to squander the gift you have received, but
to treasure it in your heart so it can grow
and bear fruit, with the help of the Holy
Spirit. In this way, each of you, for all your
limitations and failings, can be a witness to
Christ wherever you live: at home, in your
parishes, in your associations and groups,
and your places of study, work, service,
entertainment… wherever God’s providence
will lead you.”
9. Mary wraps Jesus
in swaddling clothes when
he is born in Bethlehem
“And Joseph too went up from Galilee from the
town of Nazareth to Judea, to the city of David
that is called Bethlehem, because he was of the
house and family of David, to be enrolled with
Mary, his betrothed, who was with child. While
they were there, the time came for her to have
her child, and she gave birth to her firstborn
son. She wrapped him in swaddling clothes and
laid him in a manger, because there was no
room for them in the inn.”

Gospel of Luke 2: 1-7
10. Our Lady will never leave us. As a good
mother, she tells Jesus all the good
things that you do and she understands
when you fall. It’s worthwhile staying
close to her. Do you know what a
scapular is? It might be helpful to
carry one around with you.
“Now, in front of the infant Jesus, we can
continue our personal examination of
conscience. Are we ready to try to make
our life a model and an example to our
brothers, the rest of men, our equals?
Are we ready to be other Christs? It’s not
enough to say that we are… Are you
living the life of Christ, in your everyday
life in the middle of the world? Doing
God’s work is not just a pretty phrase.
It is an invitation to spend ourselves for
Love’s sake.”
SaintJosemariaPopeFrancis
“Mary saw many difficult moments in
her life, from the birth of Jesus, when
‘there was no place for them in the inn’,
to Calvary. And like a good mother she
is close to us, so that we may never lose
courage before the adversities of life,
before our weakness, before our sins:
she gives us strength, she shows us the
path of her Son.”
11. Our Lady fulfills
the laws given by God
“When the days were completed for their
purification according to the law of Moses, they
took him up to Jerusalem to present him to the
Lord… Simeon blessed them and said to Mary
his mother, ‘Behold, this child is destined for the
fall and rise of many in Israel, and to be a sign
that will be contradicted, and you yourself a
sword will pierce’.”

Gospel of Luke 2: 22, 34-35
12. “When the days of the Mother’s purifica-
tion are accomplished, according to the
Law of Moses, the Child must be taken
to Jerusalem, to be presented to the Lord
(Luke 2:22). … Just think: She —the
Immaculate!— submits herself to the
Law as if she were defiled. Through this
example, foolish child, will you learn to
obey the Holy Law of God, regardless
of any personal sacrifice?”
SaintJosemariaPopeFrancis
“Mary is the Mother of Yes. Yes to God’s
dream, yes to God’s care, yes to God’s will.
It was a yes that, as we know, was not
easy to live. A yes that bestowed no privi-
leges or distinctions. Simeon told her in his
prophecy: ‘a sword will pierce your heart’
(Lk 2:35) and indeed it did. That is why
we love her so much. We find in her a true
Mother, one who helps us to keep faith
and hope alive in the midst of complicated
situations.”
Mary, help me to fulfill my duties with
love, to study well for love of God and to
be able to serve the others. If you want,
have an image of your Mother Mary
close to you and look at it when you get
uneasy or when you are tempted to be
distracted by anything else to keep you
from studying
13. Our Lady ponders
what Jesus does in her heart
Day
6
Gospel of Luke 2: 43, 48-51
“After they had completed its days, as they were
returning, the boy Jesus remained behind in Jeru-
salem, but his parents did not know it.”
“When his parents saw him, they were aston-
ished, and his mother said to him, ‘Son, why have
you done this to us? Your father and I have been
looking for you with great anxiety.’ And he said
to them, ‘Why were you looking for me? Did you
not know that I must be in my Father’s house?’
But they did not understand what he said to them.
He went down with them and came to Nazareth,
and was obedient to them; and his mother kept all
these things in her heart.”
14. God speaks to us through the needs of
others. You can ask Our Lady to open
your eyes and ears to be able to notice
these calls from God in so many mo-
ments throughout the day: when your
parents need help, when you see a needy
person on the street, when you realize
that a friend is not doing well, when
someone asks you a favor…
“Let us try to imitate her, talking to Our
Lord, conversing like two people in love
about everything that happens to us,
even the most insignificant incidents.
Nor should we forget that we have to
weigh them, consider their value, and
see them with the eyes of faith, in order
to discover the Will of God.”
SaintJosemariaPopeFrancis
“Mary helps us to understand what it
means to be a disciple of Christ... Her
first act was to listen to God... She fol-
lowed Jesus, listening to every word that
issued from his lips. She kept all those
things in her heart and became the living
memory of the signs worked by God’s
Son to awaken our faith. But it is not
enough simply to listen. That is certainly
the first step, but listening then needs to
be translated into concrete action.”
15. Mary notices the needs
of others, with Jesus
“On the third day there was a wedding in
Cana in Galilee, and the mother of Jesus was
there. Jesus and his disciples were also invited
to the wedding. When the wine ran short, the
mother of Jesus said to him, ‘They have no
wine.’ [And] Jesus said to her, ‘Woman, how
does your concern affect me? My hour has not
yet come.’ His mother said to the servers, ‘Do
whatever he tells you’.”
Day

Gospel of John 2: 1-5
16. When you don’t know how to act, you
can ask Our Lady: what would you do
in my situation? How can I be better?
What can I say to this person who
shared this worry with me? What do
you think of my reaction to this
problem? She will teach you to
respond as Jesus would.
“In the middle of the rejoicing at the
feast in Cana, only Mary notices that
they are short of wine... A soul will no-
tice even the smallest details of service
if, like her, it is alive with a passion for
helping its neighbour, for God.”
SaintJosemariaPopeFrancis
“Dear friends, we have come to knock
at the door of Mary’s house. She has
opened it for us, she has let us in and
she shows us her Son. Now she asks us
to ‘do whatever he tells you’.
Yes, Mother, we are committed to doing
whatever Jesus tells us! And we will do
it with hope, trusting in God’s surprises
and full of joy. Amen.”
17. Jesus gives us his Mother
“Standing by the cross of Jesus were his mother
and his mother’s sister, Mary the wife of Clopas,
and Mary of Magdala. When Jesus saw his
mother and the disciple there whom he loved,
he said to his mother, ‘Woman, behold, your
son.’ Then he said to the disciple, ‘Behold, your
mother.’ And from that hour the disciple took
her into his home.”

Gospel of John 19: 25-27
18. Mothers know everything about their
children even without being told. Before
going to bed, pray three Hail Mary’s
each night, asking Our Lady that she
protect you and keep your heart, body
and soul clean of impurity and sin, so
that you learn to love truly.
“Ecce mater tua! —Behold thy mother!
—He gives us His Mother for our own.
Earlier they had offered Him wine min-
gled with gall, and when He had tasted
it, He would not drink (Matt 27:34). Now
He thirsts... for love, for souls. Consum-
matum est. —It is consummated (John
19:30). Foolish child, look: all this... He
has suffered it all for you... and for me.
—Can you keep from crying?”
SaintJosemariaPopeFrancis
“Mary… is the Mother who patiently and
lovingly brings us to God, so that he can
untangle the knots of our soul by his father-
ly mercy. We all have some of these knots
and we can ask in our heart of hearts:
What are the knots in my life? ‘Father, my
knots cannot be undone!’ … All the knots
of our heart, every knot of our conscience,
can be undone. Do I ask Mary to help me
trust in God’s mercy, to undo those knots,
to change? She, as a woman of faith, will
surely tell you: ‘Get up, go to the Lord: he
understands you’.”
19. Jesus takes his Mother,
body and soul, to heaven
“A great sign appeared in the sky, a
woman clothed with the sun, with the
moon under her feet, and on her head
a crown of twelve stars.”
Day

Revelation 12: 1
20. The great day has arrived: we can con-
gratulate Our Lady, celebrate this feast
day with joy, and think of a gift to offer
her: a smile, praying the Rosary with
affection, making a small act of service
at home and doing it for her, with your
brothers and sisters… and remember:
what mothers most like is that their
children love each other!
“Jesus wants to have His Mother, body
and soul, in Heaven. —And the heavenly
Court, arrayed in all its splendour, hails
Our Lady. —You and I —children after
all— take the train of Mary’s magnificent
blue cloak, and so we can watch the
marvellous scene. The most Blessed
Trinity receives and showers honours
on the Daughter, Mother, and Spouse of
God…“
SaintJosemariaPopeFrancis
“Mary’s journey to heaven began with
the ‘yes’ spoken in Nazareth in response
to the Heavenly Messenger’s announce-
ment of God’s will to her. And in reality
it is just like this: every ‘yes’ to God is a
step toward Heaven, toward eternal life.
Because this is what the Lord wants: that
all his children may have life in abun-
dance! God wants us all with him, in his
house!”
21. Virgin most holy and immaculate,
to you, the honour of our people,
and the loving protector of our city,
do we turn with loving trust.
You are all-beautiful, O Mary!
In you there is no sin.
Awaken in all of us a renewed desire
for holiness:
May the splendour of truth shine forth
in our words,
the song of charity resound in our works,
purity and chastity abide in our hearts and
bodies,
and the full beauty of the Gospel be evident
in our lives.
You are all-beautiful, O Mary!
In you the Word of God became flesh.
Help us always to heed the Lord’s voice:
May we never be indifferent to the cry
of the poor,
PRAYER OF POPE FRANCIS
TO MARY IMMACULATE
22. or untouched by the sufferings of the sick
and those in need;
may we be sensitive to the loneliness
of the elderly and the vulnerability
of children,
and always love and cherish the life
of every human being.
You are all-beautiful, O Mary!
In you is the fullness of joy born of life
with God.
Help us never to forget the meaning
of our earthly journey:
May the kindly light of faith illumine
our days,
the comforting power of hope direct
our steps,
the contagious warmth of love stir
our hearts;
and may our gaze be fixed on God,
in whom true joy is found.
You are all-beautiful, O Mary!
Hear our prayer, graciously hear our
plea:
May the beauty of God’s merciful love
in Jesus abide in our hearts,
and may this divine beauty save us,
our city and the entire world.
Amen.
