You are Peter, and upon this rock I will build my Church; the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against it…..Don’t get lost…..Where there is the Pope, there is the Church…..The Church is not a museum for saints but a hospital for sinners and the Sacraments are the medicine……Mankind (that means YOU & ME) cannot “cure” itself. Its been tried throughout history and it has FAILED every time; tried by both nation and man alike…Christ came and built a Church for sinners…You can not save yourself from your worst enemy…Your very self……..Those who have ears, let them hear!

Gospel Text from Daily Mass: (Mt 16:13-19)

When Jesus went into the region of Caesarea Philippi
he asked his disciples,
“Who do people say that the Son of Man is?”
They replied, “Some say John the Baptist, others Elijah,
still others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.”
He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?”
Simon Peter said in reply,
“You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
Jesus said to him in reply, “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah.
For flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but my heavenly Father.
And so I say to you, you are Peter,
and upon this rock I will build my Church,
and the gates of the netherworld shall not prevail against it.
I will give you the keys to the Kingdom of heaven.
Whatever you bind on earth shall be bound in heaven;
and whatever you loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.”
