2005 05 21 - The Unborn Jesus
Apostolate at the Carmelites'
Eucharistic Congress
The
Carmelites
held
their
Eucharistic
Congress
at
their
Little
Flower
Heaven
Retirement
home
in
San
Diego
on
May
25th,
2005.
For
the
second
consecutive,
time
the
Unborn
Jesus
Apostolate
was
invited
to
participate
by
setting
up
an
Unborn
Jesus
Missionary
Table
and
by
leading
an
Unborn
Jesus
Holy
Hour.
Sister
Mary
Katherine
first
met
members
of
the
Unborn
Jesus
Apostolate
at
the
2003
Catholic
Family
Conference
in
Anaheim,
California,
while
Peter
was
volunteering
at
the
table.
He
himself
had
donated
the
Child
Jesus
Banner
which
was
hanging
from
the
front
of
the
table.
The
Child
Jesus
in
the
banner invites people to stop with open arms.
Who
was
to
guess
that
such
an
act
of
charity
and
detachment
was
going
to
bring
many
blessings
to
the
Unborn
Jesus
Apostolate?
The
banner
called
on
Sister
Mary
Katherine’s
attention
as
she
approached
the
Unborn
Jesus
missionary
table.
Sister
Mary
Katherine
was
so
impressed
with
the
Unborn
Jesus
message,
she
invited
the
Unborn
Jesus
Apostolate
to
participate
for
two
consecutive
occasions
at
the
Carmelites' Eucharistic Congress.
Last
year
I
was
pondering
on
the
grace
God
had
conceived
to
the
Unborn
Jesus
Apostolate
as
I
saw
Carmelite
nuns
worshipping
Jesus
in
the
Womb.
I
wondered
of
their
reaction
afterwards.
Well,
trusting
in
Jesus,
I
finish
leading
the
half
hour
and
then
asked
the
group
to
resume
their
quiet
prayers.
I
walked
out
of
the
chapel
with
my
companions
toward
the
Unborn
Jesus
table. The main purpose of this trip had been accomplished.
This
year,
the
Unborn
Jesus
Apostolate
participated
at
the
congress
by
setting up its missionary table and by leading an Unborn Jesus Holy Hour.
Unborn
Jesus
members
at
the
Unborn
Jesus
missionary
table
promote
devotion
to
the
Unborn
Child
Jesus
by
inviting
the
visitors
to
the
table
to
start an Unborn Jesus Holy Hour at their own parish.
Sister
Mary
Katherine
reaffirmed
her
support
for
the
Unborn
Jesus
Holy
Hour when she invited some of the Carmelite nuns to join us in prayer.
