Day 3: Mary, Comforter of the Afflicted Mary was troubled at these words, wondering what this greeting could mean. (Luke I:29) Let us pray: With the help of our Mother of the Word Incarnate, grant us Your mercy and consolation to lighten the burden and give comfort and strength to all who are suffering now. Dear Lord, we ask Your Blessed Mother to teach us to be compassionate. Help Your children, with the power of the Holy Spirit, to conquer the menace of evil and sin in all its manifestations. Through the intercession of the Our Lady of the Annunciation, we ask You to help us welcome the Word into the world, that we may all experience a rebirth. Through Mary, Your reign has dawned, a reign of compassion and mercy, born from the depths of the Word made flesh.

Through Zechariah we learn that if we give up on the mundane, we can miss the miracle. Through Mary and Joseph we learn that sometimes God hides the miraculous in the difficult. Only those with persistent faith see it. Watch the video for this sermon at https://vimeo.com/381530859

Welcome back to another installment of the Virtues of the Rosary on the Just One Small Thing Podcast. I have really loved attaching a virtue to each mystery of the Rosary, and I hope these episodes have been helpful and enriched your own praying of the Rosary. And, we are in the 2nd to the last episode in this series! Can you believe it?!? Today's episode is all about the fourth Glorious Mystery, the Assumption of Mary into heaven. The virtue attached to this mystery is Union with Jesus. And, what I talk about mostly in this episode is devotion to the Eucharist. Does that seem strange? That a mystery about Mary should be devoted to the Eucharist? Well, if you understand the nature of Mary and her role in our Faith Life, then it shouldn't be!!! Mary was so united with God that at the end of her life she didn't die, but instead was taken up, body and soul into heaven. I like to think that she was so united with God that the world simply couldn't hold her any more! And the way that we can follow her example and also be so united with God is through the Eucharist. As many saints have put it, Through Mary to Jesus. Mary is the door that leads to Jesus. I conclude this episode with lots of practical tips for living out your devotion to the Eucharist just a bit more fully. Here they are: Be better about spending the 15 minutes are you receive communion praising God! The Eucharist is still Jesus and now it is inside of you! Fight to attend daily mass. Look into the schedules once more and try it with the kids again. It's worth it. Commit to an hour of adoration each week! Remember that Jesus is in the tabernacle and just being near Him is a gift for us, and a wonderful gift that we can give Him! I hope these ideas are helpful and rekindle the fire of love for the Eucharist inside of you!

In 1970, with a marine husband in Vietnam, Cheryl Erickson was tasked with coming to 29 Palms to look for a home for herself and her husband. After her initial trip, Cheryl decided not to tell her husband she was not moving to the desert - 50 years later, she is still here. Having a life-long love of books, Cheryl worked in libraries at the University of Minnesota, Fairfax County, Virginia and Cal State Long Beach and immediately, upon getting settled, took a job with the 29 Palms Library. A marine officer's wife, Cheryl learned the other Marine wives were a bit unhappy that Cheryl's work made her unavailable to assist with the planning of teas and other service spouse functions. Oddly enough, Cheryl's step-mother knew a women who lived in 29 Palms and suggested Cheryl seek her out after settling in. The woman was Mary Hayes, wife of Ted Hayes who was the first high school teacher and principal in 29 Palms. Through Mary, Cheryl had an easy introduction to the community and feels it was that sense of community that has kept her in 29 Palms all these years. At the library, Cheryl worked as assistant librarian to Harold Weight. One day, while Cheryl was reading 'The Desert was Home', by Elizabeth Campbell, an important early resident in 29 Palms history, a library patron suggested that if Cheryl were interested in 'that kind of stuff', he would bring her some items he'd kept in the process of removing the contents of Campbell House. Cheryl and Harold poured over the materials and lamented the fact that so much from the home had been discarded without a thought of it's historical value and importance. It was at that point, around 1982, with the meeting of a few other local minds, that the 29 Palms Historical Society was formed. With Harold's assistance and previous experience in collecting oral histories Cheryl conducted oral interviews of more than 70 of the oldest residents of 29 Palms. In this episode, Cheryl talks about her conversation with Johnnie Hastie, the towns bus-driving errand man. Cheryl went on to become the head librarian of the 29 Palms Library and, along with Ann Congdon, was the Pioneer Days 2107 Old Timer of the Year. Cheryl is also a member of Little Church of the Desert, where she played the organ for many years, and continues to play an important role in the community and in the 29 Palms Historical Society. https://www.29palmshistorical.com/
