Key quotes from today’s Holy Week reflection:
Fr Gabriel writes:
Let us think of the moment when Pilate, after having Him scourged, brought Him before the mob, saying : “ Behold the Man!” Jesus stood there, His head crowned with thorns, His flesh lacerated by the whips; the brilliant red of His Blood mingled with the purple of His cloak, that cloak of derision with which the soldiers had clothed their mock king.
From the Catechism of the Catholic Church par 675 & 677:
“Before Christ's second coming the Church must pass through a final trial that will shake the faith of many believers.”
“The Church will enter the glory of the kingdom only through this final Passover, when she will follow her Lord in his death and Resurrection."

I promise you both that as soon as I begin my new job I will donate
Love you both, please am asking for a prayer for tomorrow at 4pm London time as I need a low cost consultation from my periodontist and a good assumption on my teeth and gums as I am so very worried about what state I have let them get into, so please ask your little ones to pray for me at this time also please, so much appreciated
to Ken and Janelle, It is consecrated family members consenting in uncertainty of their belief to be joined in consecrated marriages, celibate vowed to man in Christ and male female vowed to God, both celibate and male female in Mary's case at RSV Lk 1:38: "let it be to me" and RSV Mt 1:24: "Joseph ... took his wife", as inseparable and qualitatively equal, in their identities and groomed roles who are going through their own passion.
This passion is with their occult as hidden, incest connected as substitute mate, groomed psychologically and or emotionally vulnerable roles for economic advantage of their families by tax-exemption embezzlements and lower insurance cost by fraud with a non-economic false status inducement of, or association with, "higher vocation" (Pope St John Paul 2's Council for the Family "Guidelines", TTMHS, PCF, 1995, 35; cf. St Paul's "opinion ... not given by God" at 1Cor7:25-34) of consecrated celibate marriage to consecrated male female marriage which grooming may even draw them into spiritual death.
Where else could we go,Lord? You have the words of everlasting life.
🙏🙏🙏
As a catechumen coming into the church this Easter, that is the truth....no one else has the holy sacrifice of the mass. That in itself is more than enough reason for me to become Catholic.
Yes! The church is going through its own passion. I will not abandon him. I will console him and I will not leave the church he founded. We should not bend to the mob. Thank you Ken and Jannelle. God bless you 🙏 ❤❤❤❤
well , the church is certainly at the whipping/crown of thorns stage. Crucifixion still to come, I imagine.
So good to hear you say so clearly what is currently occurring in The Catholic Church. With you completely and utterly. Come Holy Spirit come.
To Tricia Poulos, as not "With" anyone or group "completely and utterly", in uncertainty I believe that your wording: "... what is currently occurring in The Catholic Church", could be taken to imply by the words: "The Catholic" that this "Church" is a particular family member identity in need of union when I, in uncertainty, believe that it is a part of a procreation gift role of all helpers of the family.
In this uncertainty I believe that the family is an identity-role with each member having both identity need and role gift.
It is evident that Pope Francis asserted on 16 June 2016 that "the great majority of sacramental marriages are invalid" and on 10 June 2021 that it could be taken he implied this was part of "the worldwide catastrophe" he referred to with the other part being civil marriages.
It is evident that on 17 June 2021, Pope Francis consented in uncertainty of his belief to be joined in a valid consecrated celibate marriage vowed to man in Christ on the reference point of Mary consenting in uncertainty of her belief to be joined in two consecrated marriages, celibate at Lk 1:38: "let it be to me" and Mt 1:24: "Joseph ... took his wife", as inseparable and qualitatively equal thus not consecrated celibate marriage a "higher vocation" (TTMHS, PCF, 1995, 35; cf. "opinion ... not given by God" of St Paul at 1Cor7:25-34) than male female consecrated marriage.
I support the exegesis that concludes that Christ did not found a "Church" and that this "Church" is not his Body.
In uncertainty of my belief, I conclude that consecrated family members of consecrated marriages are in their procreation gift roles what constitutes the Church and that the keeping in uncertainty of their belief of the inseparability and qualitative equality of their gift roles and identities' need requires some other term than "Church".
Evidence of this is Pope Francis' consecrated celibate marriage's evident exercise of an absolute power of simultaneous authorisations on 17 June 2021 of its ensuring in the case of alleged embezzlements of its procreation role gift charity donations by ten of his Vatican state citizens/employees, including Cardinal Angelo Becciu, and of it insuring in the case of the Italian state Parliament "Zan" anti-homophobia bill as an unacceptable risk of fraud on its identity.
It is evident that these embezzlements proven on 18 December 2023 in Pope Francis' Vatican state criminal court on indictments authorised by Pope Francis' consecrated celibate marriage on 17 June 2021 and this unacceptable risk of fraud noted on 27 October 2021 by defeat of this "Zan" anti-homophobia bill in the Italian Parliament following a protest note against this bill simultaneously authorised on 17 June 2021 by Pope Francis consecrated celibate marriage are occult as hidden and incest connected as substitute mate causing extreme tensions.
In uncertainty of my belief, these extreme tensions are only able to be withstood by exercise of an absolute power of simultaneous authorisations of it ensuring and it insuring by consecrated marriage, either celibate vowed to man in Christ or male female vowed to God as inseparable and qualitatively equal.
In uncertainty of my belief, I believe that in these cases on 17 June 2021, it was a consecrated marriage vowed to man in Christ inseparable and qualitatively equal with consecrated male female marriage vowed to God that was consented by Pope Francis in uncertainty of his belief to be joined in in present moment real presence keeping of the inseparability and qualitative equality of objective and in uncertainty of belief, subjective, judgement as was the judgement of: "... the company of those who [in uncertainty] believed [who] were of one heart and mind ..." (NIV Acts 4:32), as included Pope Francis on 17 June 2021.
In uncertainty, I believe that psychologically and emotionally vulnerable family members in their helper of the family roles are drawn by this grooming by diseased ‘familyist’ family members in their distorted identities into complicity in these embezzlements and this fraud that may even draw them into spiritual death and which extreme tensions are now withstood by the consecrated celibate marriage of Pope Francis.
Wow. This is probably one of the most powerful messages I have heard. That statement really hit me: "Are we caving to the mob?" As you continued on, your words and scene that you painted, literally, broke my heart.
I concur with your statement I was in tears today. Thank you Ken and Janelle
YES! eloquent, beautiful, charitable, and inspiring.
I shared the video.
We’ll said! My thoughts exactly. Thank you Janelle and Ken.
WOW!!! What a profound meditation. It truly touched my heart & gave me so much clarity of why I am Catholic. God bless you both.
In my heart I cannot leave the church. The Catholic teachings are filled with so many blessings. I have listened to some of the arguments against and for the changes. I stopped listening because I'd rather stay faithful to Jesus, I trust Him to overturn everything that goes against His holiness.
I am so glad you spoke of this & you did it so beautifully. Thank you Ken.
Ken, these words hit home with me like none other you have spoken. I have been wondering the same thing myself. People are blinded by this culture etc… I wonder how much longer God will let this go on. What an interesting time to be a Catholic. Thank you both for sharing your faith with us.
Thank you for your insights...yes the Church is going through it's own Passion. The Lord must be lonely without us and we certainly are lonely and lost without Him.
What a great analogy of our current circumstances with holy church today! I am a proud monthly donor! Everyone listening…please consider it! Such a worthwhile cause! Love you, Ken and Janelle. Blessed Holy Week! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🥀🙏🏻🙏🏻
Agreed. Now is the time for us to stand with Jesus and proclaim our undying faithfulness to Him. Blessed Holy Thursday to all.
Thanks K&L < May God strengthen this ministry
Loved this meditation today, I am really happy and blessed to be Catholic right now.
God bless this community
We must not lose faith ✝️
We must not conform to the world
A realy beautiful meditation today. This is an extraordinary and privileged time to be living in. Will we be able to see through the weeds? Anyone that has heard this meditation, God is calling you to his mystical body, the church. He is calling the faithful to His heart that we might console Him. Indeed, this is the apostasy, the great agony of our blessed church. God have mercy on us.
I am one among you,my heart aches when I look at the status of my church, crying out to Jesus to do something about it. Praying for those, whose faith has been shaken and going away
Word. No compromise when it comes to Jesus and His Church. The Church and the world are going through a passion. I choose to conform myself to the will of God.
Amen! Great to see you here.🙏❤️
I am in so much pain today - - pray that the Lord helps,me carry my cross
I just passed through some painful days so I can definitely relate. I prayed before I wrote this comment. I will continue through today lifting you up to the Divine Healer. May God bless you and all you offer up through your present pain. 🙏🤲🙏💕💝
Hallo, , offer your pain to Holy Father ,to forgive Sin's , and give you more ,strenth to overcome the pain , God Be With You, ❤
I am Homebound and was awakened at approximately 3:00am also in deep pain I prayed and asked Our Dear Lord for relief as my Pastor is coming today at 2:00pm to hear my Confession and give me The Holy Eucharist. I briefly fell asleep and when I woke the pain had greatly diminished. I will definitely Pray for you. ✝️♥️♥️♥️🙏
AMEN. JESUS CHRIST IS MY KING & MY GOD. MY SAVIOR & MY REDEEMER. JESUS HAVE MERCY ON US POOR WEAK SINNERS. 🙏🙏🙏
Stay at the foot of the cross just like Our Lady of Sorrows did.
Holy Mother, hear my prayers and renew in my heart each wound of Jesus my Saviour.
Our Lady of Sorrows, help us follow your example, as you stay by Christ's side as He goes through His passion.
Yes, the Church is definitely going through its passion just as our Savior. The Church must be purified in order to be the Bride of Christ when He returns. Keep your eyes on Jesus. Pray. Fast. Repent.
Thank you for this profound and beautiful reflection. Our Church is in great need of our prayers and our solidarity. I pray I be a helper to Jesus in all things.
This was so insightful. I'm weeping now. Thank you for drawing me into this imagery during this Holy Week. God bless you both and the work you're doing for our Church and for the Kingdom of our precious Lord.
I absolutely have treasured your talks each day! Thank you for all you do for our Catholic faith. Your teaching and wisdom you share is a gift!!
I donated “$30.00” pieces of “silver”, for Your commitment to teaching the Catholic faith!
Thank you for all you do🙏
What a great idea-creating your garden of Gethsemane! 🙏🏻🙏🏻👏🏻👏🏻♥
Amen! I do agree the Church is going through its own passion.
Thank you for being so brave in presenting the reality of the similarity of our church to this crazy world... I'm not abandoning Jesus and His church... I, too ache with Him during His passion...as for our country!
I always enjoy, appreciate and learn from your videos, but today’s meditation is so acutely on point. I read so many other great comments above and will echo the sentiment of how thankful I am to be Catholic. As a convert, I can attest to the folly of a denomination that bends to the will of the crowd. May God continue to bless your ministry and prayers for the conversion of our shepherds.
I love your ideas for the Truuidum for your family. What great parents to put these ideas so early in your children's lives. May God bless you again and again and again. The church is in deep trouble but Mary will be triumphant with her Son. We must never lose hope or faith. We must always believe and adore and offer our sufferings and joys in reparation for our sins and the world's sins. Thank you both..🙏🏽😇🩷🩵😇🙏🏽
I am proud of being Catholic and see you both and in your life always be happy and healthy life always with good religous with strong faith may God bless you and your family members Amen
Very inspiring and powerful message
Loved the Holy Week family practices shared by Janelle and the 'Jesus disfigured' reflection shared by Ken.
Very important to reflect on and introspect this week.
God bless you, your family and your ministry.
This family is truly a gift to our Church. Please consider supporting them. We offer these alms/support for this apostolate of there's because we hope other young families will follow their example. They truly are what a devout Catholic family should look like.
I always enjoy hearing what you are doing with the kids and as a family to teach the Faith. Thank you Janelle for your lovely example.
Wow Ken!! Your word picrure of the state of our Church and how we are disfiguring our Lord was powerful! I know exactly what you are referring to with the whole "listening" mess.
May God bless you both and the children. I'm so grateful to have you as a part of my journey here on b earth.
🙏🤲🙏💕💝
Yes the Church is going through Passion of Jesus! She must be Puifed to make New as Jesus said l make all things New to Those who Love him! 🙏✝️🙏
Amazing insights, guided by the Holy Spirit. Thank you for sharing with us. God bless.
Agree with your thought provoking comments. We need to be involved to be sure the Church does not follow the path society is choosing.
Well said Ken yes the church is going through a passion we must remain faithful and not bend our catholic faith no matter God bless you both pray for you and your family please pray for mine❤
Amen! Thank you for your clear and true reflections. Faithfulness to Jesus. So important.
Thank you Ken and Janelle for these beautiful videos. These meditations are a blessing, and I greatly appreciate it. God bless you and your family.
What Janelle read from the Catechism of the Catholic Church is found in sections 675-677, titled "The Church's Ultimate Trial." I recommend that we all read this passage, especially #675. I'm not claiming that for certain this is now happening, but it should definitely be kept in mind! God bless you, Ken and Janelle for an incredibly moving, courageous, inspirational, insightful, and sobering reflection!
Yes our Church is going through Her Passion but I will not leave Jesus not ever..
Faithfulness to Jesus ... pray unceasingly for the Pope and the clergy😢that they see the Light 🙏
Thank you so much for saying the Truth, simply and beautifully. ❤
Ken, what you have shared is so amazingly insightful and profound...thank you for your courageous sharing. Yes, the Church is going through its own Passion...disfigurement and abandonment by His Own. Blessings on you, Janelle, your family, and your ministry.
Wow what a powerful message! My soul feels like our church is going through a passion! I pray that I will not abandon my Lord, but reality and my heart know that Peter did. And who am I, but a sinner, So I pray for strength that only Jesus can give to stay at the foot of the cross! 🙏 P.S. I love all of your Holy Week activity’s with your children what a blessing for you all! ❤️
I agree! The sad thing is we are hearing thes things from our church leaders, the supposed sucessors of the apostles. I just pray and remember the Lord's promise regarding His church: The gates of hell shall not prevail against it.
Thank you for sharing this Lenten time so beautifully with us,I have listen each day with you hear in Australia,May God bless you and your family 🙏❤️
Thank you Ken. This reflexion has really touched my heart and has explained what is disturbing us in the direction of our Church.
Thank you Ken, this is so true and such a beautiful message, thank you for your courage to speak the truth. God bless you and Janelle, and your precious family❤🙏
Thank you is enough! God bless you and your family! Truth! 💜🙏🏻💜
Another great reflection. I have friends who have left the Catholic Church because of their new take on life- it does sadden me because they were very true believers of the Catholic Faith. Your explanation on how Jesus has become disfigured and unrecognizable so that new beliefs of one can continue does make it seem the church is living its own Passion.
May we always stand with Jesus and our Catholic Faith; never abandon him as he has never abandoned us!
Wow ! So Enlightening!! We need to hear that! Thank you Ken and Janelle 🙏🏻👏🏻😀
I have just listened to Wednesdays thoughts again..so profound i am going to save it so i can listen often. There are, in my opinion, some things that NEVER need to change..and that is the Catholic Church and its teachings..we must not bend nor give into the "mob"
Jesus said.."I AM"..I was, I Am, I always will be..in a changing world it would be most comforting and necessary for the church to remain unchanged..because the word of God never changes..Thank you, Ken, for this discussion🙏
Good morning from South Africa..TXGBU FOR SHARING 🙏 🙏 🙏 ♥
So well said! I think of all the people who want the church to "get with the times", and all the Protestant denominations that started their own churches because they couldn't accept one teaching or another, and every time we sin by saying no to God. It is heartbreaking how we have scourged Him and made Him harder for people to recognize. Lord, help us always choose you and with the help of the Holy Spirit lead people to the real Jesus Christ our Savior by our faithful example.💔😢
❤❤❤AMEN AMEN AMEN GOD BLESS YOU ALL 😊😊😊
Very moving meditation. Excellent insight.
Bless holy week to you and family 👏,Ken your talk today really touch my heart , it bring to light to much , we can't leave our church now, now is the time to stand strong in faith and pray, God 's blessings always
It appears that The Church is going through it's own passion. I want to offer my prayers and suffering during This Passion Week.❤❤❤❤
We shouldn’t abandon Christ when He is disfigured!!!!! This really struck me today.
Today’s reflection is so personal and so real, this is what we need reminding of. Can we/ can I help Him? How are the ways in which we abandon Him, yet, He is always there for us, just waiting for our call, our invitation. Very heart rendering reflection today. Thank you for your insights and for sharing, for drawing people closer to Christ and for helping to make us want to do better 🙏🏻
I pray every day that all those in holy orders from the POPE, to the cardinals, archbishops, bishops, monsignors, priests, deacons, religious sisters, hermits, and monks do not change, add, or subtract from the true message, meanings, or words of the gospel, sacred scriptures, or the catholic catechism in any way, shape or form.
Beautiful.Message. Thank you,Ken&Janelle! Easter Blessings to you& your Family 💞🙏
Let it be me Lord, to help you 🙏Amen 🙏
Another Eucharist miracle in Nagaland India. Please talk about our. Tomorrow is our Maundy Thursday. Jesus Boby and Blood shared for the world.
Wow❣️❣️❣️ that was a great 🥺. Thank you for this reflection😢😢Jesus l trust in You❤
PRAY, PRAY, PRAY FOR THE TRUE CATHOLIC CHURCH OF JESUS CHRIST !!!
Amen
That was absolutely beautiful. We are definitely going through the Passion. As in John 7:68, Then Jesus said to the twelve, Will you also go away?
As a fellow Canadian, this channel gives me hope not only for our lost Church, but our lost Country
Such a powerful message!!
Thank you for doing this. It has been a huge blessing for me.
Beautiful meditation! Thank you!
Excellent commentary!!
Wow thank you 🙏🏻🙏🏻
🙏🙏🙏. Thank you
You nailed it today!
❤
Beautiful beautiful reflection. You said some things that I had never thought of before so thank you.
I think the Church has ALWAYS had its passions. Look at the days of the Reformation. We know the "gates of Hell" shall not prevail. The Second Vatican Council has done much to modernize the Church, and this is still ongoing. It's important to truly LISTEN to what our Popes are saying as each Pope leaves us something to learn from and grow with. Hard-core conservatives have a lot of difficulty with this idea, but it still worth pondering. I am enjoying journeying through Lent with both of you. God Bless!❤
These are the pains of childbirth (necessary to give birth).
Thank you !! ❤❤❤ please pray for my fathers soul Eugenio Perez
You can buy window film to go over the window, comes off super easy, and then paint over it.
I love your show. Janelle would you consider singing the rosary or the Divine Mercy rosary and putting it on your UA-cam channel? You have a Beautiful voice. ALSO maybe some church hyms of you singing.
I'm a 57 year old grandmother, my grand daughters love to sing, I would much rather if they sang along with you praising Our Lord than singing the songs of the world that are "hip"
I really hope you would consider this
I believe as you do, that the church is indeed going through its own passion. When the Vatican issues documents that cause dissension and disunity among cardinals, bishops and priests and even a rejection from the entire African Assembly of Bishops, this is like a scourging and betrayal of Jesus and his Holy Church. It is also a scandal and must sadden the merciful heart of Jesus. Your challenge for us to pray and fast is essential during these troubling times. Take heart because the church must be purified when Jesus returns for Bride. Happy Easter.
Except Bishops in Africa largely accepted Fiduccia Supplicans but they rejected the implementation of it in their own African nations due to social and political concerns.
Yes
Synod on synodality came to mind
Yes I believe this also
Thank you, Ken & Janelle.
Deo gratias per Mariam Matrem Dei sine macula originali conceptam et Reginam pacis ac amoris et per Vos quoque ❤❤❤
We are unstoppable with the power of Christ. Satan get thee behind me in Jesus name you have caused too much pain in this world and in my life! I will not lose hope even as I struggle as a single mother. Both of my sons are special needs children. They require so much from me yet I know I AM BLESSED to be their mother. So as I struggle with rent and as I struggle provide for my children. I PRAISE GOD. I know a blessing is on the way.
So good!!
🛐🕯✝❤🙏🏻👏🏻
Amen, Owen Doyle!
😇
I think youre exactly right!! God will show up!!!
Yes, we can be there with Him!! Jesus dictated to Luisa Piccarreta how, in the Book of Heaven!! Luisa is a declared a Servant of God by the Church!!🙏🏼✝️ The writings of the 24 Hours of the Passion are magnanimous!! Please consider diving into these gifts!!! Peace!!🤗
❤
I left the new catholic church for the original tradional holy Catholic and Apostolic Church off up to 1958 pre vactican 2 and old Roman rite when prayers were holy, old and Sacred
No, you separated yourself from the Church. There is no "original Church" other than the Catholic Church who is headed by Pope Francis. You have fallen into error and schism if you believe that Christ's Church can fall to error.
😊
The Rebellious worldly changes to our Lord's Beloved Catholic Church has been disrespected for over many years but now the silent observers are either defending our Catholic Church or defending the so called RIGHT TO CHANGE GOD'S DIVINE CHURCH according to their desires and Not GOD'S DIVINE WILL
How is the Church as a whole caving in to wordly pressures? Fidduccia Supplicans is not contrary to Catholic teaching. I am young Catholic man and I'm chilling in the boat, I will not abandon the Church while others scramble overboard the ship scared of the storm.
I was thinking that you good people might consider approaching Catholic school boards with "packages" for elementary and high school formation. I mention this because I am a teacher and my union frequently sends these videos to our members. These packages could be for the whole school, rather than a classroom activity, but something the whole school could do occasionally (monthly?) in the gym, where we meet monthly for mass..
How can someone send a donation via snail mail?
Jesus reached out to the lepers. Who is the leper in our hearts?
Jesus was cruxified for treating the outcasts of the day with love and mercy and by doing so broke the rules of religious establishment who decided judgement and vengence was their purview.
None of us are worthy of God's blessing or mercy. Even those of us who think we are lesser sinners than others. Fortunately, God's mercy is infinite.
Let us all go and try to sin no more.
The Catholic Church is still going through a Purification process because there are way too many wolves within the Church. God is trying to cast away the wolves as much as possible these days because Jesus Christ is about to come extremely soon. God is trying to help cast away the wolves so you can enjoy and mingle with pure souls and continue to that way as much as possible. Godbless 🙏🙏🙏
Come Holy Ghost who is the 3rd person of the Blessed Trinity, the holy spirit js not a person but is the spirit of God
