The Greatest Commandment Prayer (The Shema)

*When Jesus was a boy, St Joseph taught Him to memorize and pray always these words.
Jesus told Venerable Sister Consolata Betrone: “The more that you love Me, the happier you will be!”

Hail Mary…
God Our Father, help all fathers to love, lead, bless and teach their children – just like You do! +Amen
Awesome session 👍 very emotional videos. POWERFUL. I highly recommend this one. It demonstrates what we all strive for- to die to ourselves for the sake of our wife and kids. We all want to be there for our kids and to seek their hearts, even when they’re grown.
Thanks Mark! I totally agree. This See for Yourself guide bowled me over. I hope to be a dad like those dads when I grow up!
