We Need Your Help! 2-1-10 NOTICE From Our Lady of The Most Blessed Sacrament Monastery To Our Dear Friends and Benefactors: We are once again in need of emergency funds to maintain the monastery and ministries. It is amazing how little it seems we need to stay open, but it is through donations that we are able to do so. At this time the donations are barely coming in. So once again we appeal to your charitable hearts. I know that many of you are finding it difficult to maintain in today's economy. We are all hurting. Be assured that whatever amount you may share, large or small, will be greatly appreciated. You remain in our hearts and prayers. Thank you. Sincerely in Christ, Abbot +Martin Your financial assistance is greatly needed and appreciated. Please make your tax-deductable contribution to: Little Brothers of Jesus SAVE THE MONASTERY 4977 N. Chippewa Rd. Coleman, MI 48618 HOLY TRINITY CATHEDRAL As of August 6, 2006 our humble monastery was designated as a Cathedral. See the news section. UKRAINIAN ORTHODOX CHURCH in AMERICA Slava Isusu Krystu! Praised Be Jesus Christ! A pioneer monastic community for Perpetual Eucharistic Adoration, contemplative prayer, and service to community.A house of prayer for ALL PEOPLE; an Eastern Orthodox, Catholic, Christian community. _________________________________________________ SERVING OUR EUCHARISTIC LORD, JESUS CHRIST! The Eucharist is the gift of Christ's love - a fire in a world that has become cold and indifferent. It is like a magnet. The Lord draws us to Himself and gently transforms us. Our monastic community is dedicated in every way to our Eucharistic Jesus. He is the center of our life from which all else flows. He is our inspiration and cause of our spirituality. The Eucharistic Sacrifice of Calvary, the Liturgy of the Hours: Morning Prayer, Midday Prayer, Sharing in the Word of God; The Rosary, Divine Mercy Chaplet, etc... all give form to our mission of prayer. But all of this in His sacred presence as we gaze upon His Holy Presence in Adoration. This rhythmical pattern of living creates the contemplative context in our lives. Our contemplation does not make us cloistered. Our life is modeled after the Holy Family at Nazareth. Our life is simple and totally trusting in His Divine Mercy that flows like a river from His Eucharistic Heart. We become the very feet and hands of Our Eucharistic Lord and Saviour. We are His instruments to serve as He bids. We are Pioneers in a new frontier amidst those who no longer believe in the truth. Truth has become false and falsehood has become truth. What was true for our Fathers remains true for us. Faith is still faith and truth is still truth. JESUS CHRIST, the same yesterday, today and forever! PERPETUAL ADORATION AND ABANDONMENT TO GOD The Blessed Sacrament is the LIVING FOUNTAIN OF LIFE where we drink in the love of CHRIST WHO alone quenches our thirst to be loved. A Little Brother of Jesus realizes that every moment spent in the presence of the Blessed Sacrament will leave his soul everlastingly more glorious and beautiful in Heaven, because the Blessed Sacrament is Jesus, our Risen Savior, with all the glory and beauty of His Resurrection flowing out on those who come into His Eucharistic Presence. Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament is the easiest person in the world to be with. Even if you cannot pray very well, or even if you do not say anything at all, the mere fact that you come to Him in the Blessed Sacrament is in itself a prayer of faith that will greatly benefit your soul. For just as you cannot be exposed to the sun without receiving its vivifying rays, so too you cannot be exposed to the Son of God, present in the Blessed Sacrament, without receiving His Divine Rays of enriching graces, mercy, love, life and peace. Jesus hides His beauty and glory in the Blessed Sacrament so that He may bathe your soul with His everlasting beauty and glory each moment you spend with Him in the Sacrament of infinite Love. In this Sacrament of His love, we find that it is His very Sacred Heart, living and dwelling in our midst and calling out to each of us to come to Him in total abandonment. That the Holy Eucharist is the person of our loving Savior, whose Divine and Merciful Heart is on fire with a deep, personal love for each of us.___________________________________________ ORTHODOX NEWS Click Here to Join Orthodox News We Need Your Help!
