NO MASS IN OUR FUTURE

WHERE ARE THE WORKERS IN GOD'S VINEYARD

Why is Our Lord not instilling religious vocations into our young? Or is He? Are we the blame because there are not enough priests and sisters? What have we done to nurture our children to become nuns and priests? Have we talked to them about becoming one? Have we showed them or told them the wonderful advantages of becoming a religious? I think not. Parents talk negatively about religious life, because they are afraid of losing the son or daughter to God. They want their sons or daughters to have good jobs and big homes. They want grand children. Some parents even after their childen have become religious, they talk negatively, giving ideas to their young and they up coming out.

What have the priest or nuns done to nurture religious vocations? Have they talked about the good points of being a religious, or are they telling them the negative points? Are we taking the nuns and priests out of schools and putting them into administrative positions instead of putting them into the classrooms to teach. Lay people can do administrative positions. If priests and nuns are not around in grade and high schools, the children have no role models. The cliche out of sight and out of mind is very true. Children learn what they see. If they do not see nuns and priests, they will never want to become one. They have to inner act with them.

Have you ever thought what would happen in the next five years. If we have no priests? or nuns around?
THINK WE WOULD HAVE NO MASS. NO ONE TO GIVE US THE BODY AND BLOOD OF CHRIST.
NO ONE TO HEAR CONFESSIONS.
If this happens which in all likelihood it will.

THE DEVIL WILL HAVE WON

A world without God would spin into chaos. Is this what we want for our children. God gave us the mass so we would be close to Him. Take that away and we have nothing.
You can argue all you want that the world doesn't need masses to be close to God. This is what the devil wants you to believe. Every religion no matter what religion it is needs relgious leaders. Where are ours? Every vocation has its good points and bad.

WHO WILL WIN THE DEVIL OR GOD?
