“GOD, grant me the Serenity
to accept the things
I cannot change,
Courage to change the
things I can,
and the Wisdom
to know the difference.”

DON'T QUIT

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low, and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest if you must, but don't quit.
Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As everyone of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about,
When he might have won he stuck it out,
Don't give up though the pace seems slow,
You may succeed with another blow.
Success is failure turned inside out,
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far,
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit,
It's when things seem worse,
That you must not quit.

The Story of Medjugorje

Laura and I would like to thank THE MANY people that have continued to pray for our son Joey. Several friends have given us blessed Holy Water from this small village, in the former Yugoslavia, named Medjugorje. We must all truly believe that miracles from God exist: we must truly believe it in our hearts. I know that plenty of my friends reading this may be saying, "What the?", but why should it take a situation like ours to answer the questions about what is and what isn't important in our lives? Think about it........

Since June of 1981, in a small village, in the former Yugoslavia, named Medjugorje, the Blessed Virgin Mary has been appearing and giving messages to the world .

Our Lady continues to give messages to six young people from the village: Ivan, Jakov, Maarija, Mirjana, Vicka and Ivanka. These six, known as the "visionaries", have had apparitions of the Blessed Virgin Mary. In addition to these messages, Our Lady is to give each of the six visionaries a total of ten "secrets" that will occur on earth in the near future. Only one of the secrets so far has been revealed by the visionaries. When each of the six visionaries has received all ten "secrets", Our Lady will stop appearing to them, then there will be three warnings given to the world. Visionary Mirjana will witness these warnings. After the three warnings, the permanent visible sign will be left on the mountain where Our Lady first appeared.

Millions of people of all faiths, from all over the world, have visited Medjugorje and have many stories to relate of miracles, visuals and conversions.

Our Lady says: "You have forgotten that with prayer and fasting you can ward off wars, and suspend natural laws".

Our Lady of Medjugorje
"Dear Children, this is the reason for my presence among you for such a long time: to lead you on the path of Jesus. I want to save you and, through you, to save the whole world. Many people now live without faith; some don't even want to hear about Jesus, but they still want peace and satisfaction! Children, here is the reason why I need your prayer; prayer is the only way to save the human race." (Revealed July 30, 1987 by Our Lady)

Saint Joseph whose protection is so great, so strong and so prompt, before the throne of God I place all my interest and desires.

O Saint Joseph, by your powerful intercession obtain for me from your divine Son all spiritual blessings, Joseph Anthony Tubo through Jesus Christ, Our Lord so that having engaged here below your heavenly power I may offer my thanksgiving and homage to the most loving of Fathers.

O Saint Joseph, I never weary contemplating you and Jesus asleep in your arms I dare not approach while he reposes near you heart. Press him in my name and kiss his fine head for me and ask him to return the kiss when I draw my dying breath. St. Joseph , patron of departing souls, pray for us.

Amen.
