Here's hoping Father Altier's column gets restored immediately!
Faith-sharing bump. Blessed are those whose Hope is the Lord's!

# | Douay-Rheims | Vulgate |
22 | Saying: The Son of man must suffer many things and be rejected by the ancients and chief priests and scribes and be killed and the third day rise again. | dicens quia oportet Filium hominis multa pati et reprobari a senioribus et principibus sacerdotum et scribis et occidi et tertia die resurgere |
23 | And he said to all: If any man will come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me. | dicebat autem ad omnes si quis vult post me venire abneget se ipsum et tollat crucem suam cotidie et sequatur me |
24 | For whosoever will save his life shall lose it: for he that shall lose his life for my sake shall save it. | qui enim voluerit animam suam salvam facere perdet illam nam qui perdiderit animam suam propter me salvam faciet illam |
25 | For what is a man advantaged, if he gain the whole world and lose himself and cast away himself? | quid enim proficit homo si lucretur universum mundum se autem ipsum perdat et detrimentum sui faciat |
Could be. Did you see the post by notwithstanding on the first page?

O God, come to my aid.
O Lord, make haste to help me.
Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit,
as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be,
world without end.
Amen.
This is an excellent moment for an examination of conscience. In a communal celebration of Compline, one of the penitential acts given in the Missal may be recited. |
A suitable hymn may be inserted at this point.
Psalm 15 (16) |

The Lord, my inheritance |
My body will rest in calm and hope. |
Preserve me, Lord, I put my hope in you. I have said to the Lord You are my Lord, in you alone is all my good. As for the holy and noble men of the land, in them is all my delight. But for those who run to alien gods, their sorrows are many. I will not share in their libations of blood. I will not speak their names. You, Lord, are my inheritance and my cup. You control my destiny, the lot marked out for me is of the best, my inheritance is all I could ask for. I will bless the Lord who gave me understanding; even in the night my heart will teach me wisdom. I will hold the Lord for ever in my sight: with him at my side I can never be shaken. Thus it is that my heart rejoices, heart and soul together; while my body rests in calm hope. You will not leave my soul in the underworld. You will not let your chosen one see decay. You will show me the paths of life, the fullness of joy before your face, and delights at your right hand until the end of time. Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen. |
My body will rest in calm and hope. |

Canticle | Nunc Dimittis |

Keep us safe, Lord, while we are awake, and guard us as we sleep, so that we can keep watch with Christ and rest in peace. | |
Now, Master, you let your servant go in peace. You have fulfilled your promise. My own eyes have seen your salvation, which you have prepared in the sight of all peoples. A light to bring the Gentiles from darkness; the glory of your people Israel. Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen. |

Keep us safe, Lord, while we are awake, and guard us as we sleep, so that we can keep watch with Christ and rest in peace. |

Let us pray. Lord our God, we are tired by the work of the day. Refresh us with peaceful sleep and, forever renewed by the help you give, let us always be dedicated to you in body and mind. Through Christ our Lord, Amen. |
May the almighty Lord grant us a quiet night and a perfect end. |

Would you mind sending it to me by private message?
Dear Trisham,
Not a Problem. However, Please check a thread that Salvation started late last night regarding The Talk that Father Altier sent me on Saint Michael in October 2005.
It is all there. Please check the following thread.
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/religion/1589059/posts.
If you still want me to send it to you I will.
On this Thread, please read the horrendous experiences I had in Religious Life in the United States and how Father Altier saved me from forsaking the Catholic Faith and my Catholic Heritage.
There is a rumor going around that Father Altier may be asked to leave the Archdiocese of Minneapolis. I sincerely pray and hope it is not true.
In Jesus and Mary,
Dear All,
