Be the Creed.

[Bishop J. Strickland @BishStrickland]

It is great to see encouragement regarding praying the Rosary. It is a Catholic prayer but if you see this and are moved to pray it you are absolutely welcome to do so. It ultimately is a reflection on the life of Jesus Christ and His mother who loved Him more than we know.

With donations being doubled right now, it only takes $193 for me to add even more SEL books written in Spanish for my students than I can add on my own. Please share or give! Thank you! https://t.co/XOIH3a2J3I

“Tell Christ the King I shall be with him soon.”

Jose Luis Sanchez Del Rio was born in Mexico, in the town of Sahuayo, Michoacan, on March 28, 1913. He was the third of four children. Raised in a strong Catholic environment, Jose was taught well in the Faith. José loved his faith and grew up with a strong devotion to Our Lady of Guadalupe.

When José was twelve years old, the Cristero Wars began in Mexico. During this period in history the Mexican government attempted to extinguish the influence of the Catholic Church throughout the country.

It persecuted the Catholic Church by seizing property, closing religious schools and convents, and executing Catholic priests. In defense of the Church, the peasants of many of the central and western states in Mexico rebelled against the government.

Jose, in greatest desire to defend his faith, sought to join uprising Cristeros, a movement that had been initiated for defending the rights of Catholics.

He begged his mother for permission to join them, saying “In order to go to heaven, we have to go to war.” Additionally pleading, he exclaimed, “Never has it been so easy to obtain Heaven."

After some time, persuaded by his passionate pleadings, she permitted him to join the others among his family, who were already set on departing. However, due to his juvenile age, it required much persistent pleading until the Cristero general also accepted Jose, who would be allowed to act as flag-bearer.

A while later, a battle commenced in which the general’s horse, by a critical shot, collapsed to the ground. But without hesitation, the young man immediately told the general, “Take my horse and save yourself. You’re the general, and what am I worth to the cause?”

At first refusing, the general eventually submitted to Jose’s insistence, and by mounting the horse, he was able to safely retreat.

But since Jose himself had surrendered his sole chance of escape, government troops easily seized and overtook him.

As a captive, they forced the young man to witness the gory execution of another captured Cristero, in the hopes that this event would weaken his resolve. Instead, the surprising opposite occurred. Retaining every ounce of unfaltering character, Jose bolstered the faith of the dying Cristero.

By the powerful encouragement provided by that young man, the condemned victim was able to lovingly embrace his martyrdom with heroic confidence.

Held prisoner in Sahuayo, the town of his birthplace, Jose was lodged in his parish church, which was being utilized as a jailhouse.

The local official, Rafael Picasso, offered to accept a ransom (which demanded a preposterous amount), otherwise, they would consequently execute Jose, regardless of his youth. However, Jose sternly admonished his fellow townsmen not to pay a single cent; he knew this was his chance to die bravely for Christ.

Meanwhile, government officials procured the appearance of Jose’s weeping mother, for the purpose of inducing Jose to yield, but nevertheless, the 13-year-olds' determinations remained set on Christ over all things, even above the love of his own mother.

In regards to how Jose received nourishment, food was brought to him inside a small basket. His uncle, Fr. Ignacio Sanchez, was accustomed to hiding a consecrated host among the various provisions. Upon finding the Eucharist, Jose would kneel in adoration before humbly receiving it and giving thanks.

Those passing by the church at this time reported that they could hear Jose reciting the rosary and singing hymns to Our Lady. Therefore, even in imprisonment, he never wavered from his life of prayer.

[Bishop J. Strickland @BishStrickland]

I pray that this effort is prayerful, respectful and focused on Jesus. He is the only support I need and I feel the profound embrace of His Sacred Heart. I appreciate the vigorous faith this is inspired by but please remember I am nothing, Jesus is everything. Viva Cristo Rey!

[Bishop J. Strickland @BishStrickland]

Rejoice always that…no matter what the day brings Jesus Christ is the Way, the Truth and the Life, yesterday, today and forever. May the saints and the Blessed Virgin Mary always inspire us to return to Christ no matter how we may wander into darkness. Jesus is Light from Light.

@mcconnellh88 What did you ended up doing ?

[Kevin McCarthy @SpeakerMcCarthy]

Today, for the first time in years, the Constitution was read aloud in Congress—now that Republicans are back in charge.

I led things off with the Preamble:

[Kayleigh McEnany @kayleighmcenany]

Yesterday, almost every Democrat voted against "legislation that would require immediate medical attention for babies who are born alive after an attempt was made to abort them."

Let me repeat -- "babies who are born alive" !
