The Gospel of Luke Chapter 8 Verse One thru Three

1 Afterward he journeyed from one town and village to another, preaching and proclaiming the good news of the kingdom of God. Accompanying him were the Twelve 2 and some women who had been cured of evil spirits and infirmities, Mary, called Magdalene, from whom seven demons had gone out, 3 Joanna, the wife of Herod’s steward Chuza, Susanna, and many others who provided for them out of their resources.

In today’s reflection on Luke 8:1-3, we witness Jesus traveling through towns and villages, proclaiming the good news of the Kingdom of God. Accompanying Him are the Twelve and several devoted women, including Mary Magdalene, who had been delivered from evil spirits and infirmities. This passage emphasizes the transformative power of faith, as these women, once marginalized by their struggles, become active participants in Jesus’ ministry, supporting Him and spreading His message.

As we conclude our novena for the repose of the soul of Charlie Kirk, let us remember his profound impact during his time with us. Just like the figures in today’s scripture, Charlie dedicated his life to helping others rise above their personal challenges and find healing, always invoking the name of Jesus to guide them. His commitment to sharing the Gospel and lifting those burdened by sin and affliction exemplifies how one can be a vessel of Christ’s love and grace.

Every one of us has the potential to call on the name of Jesus, bringing hope and healing to others. In moments of despair—whether in our lives or in the lives of those around us—we can embody the spirit of today’s reading. We can participate in this divine mission of salvation and redemption, sharing the joy and peace that comes from dwelling in the love of Christ.

As we pray for Charlie's soul today, let us also seek the grace to become instruments of healing in our own communities. May the spirit of the Lord ignite in us a passion to help others find their way to salvation. Amen.

Join me as we pray our daily prayer of forgiveness. The Lord’s Prayer.

At the Savior's command and formed by divine teaching, we dare to pray:

Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name; thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us; and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil. Deliver us, Lord, we pray, from every evil, graciously grant peace in our days, that, by the help of your mercy, we may be always free from sin and safe from all distress, as we await the blessed hope and the coming of our Savior, Jesus Christ. For the kingdom, the power and the glory are yours now and forever.

I am sorry Lord. I believe You died and rose for me. Please forgive me as I forgive others. I share You as my Lord and Savior seeking to live your Will in all things. Prayers for wife Toni and my mother Betty pray for our children especially our two oldest Alexandra & Allen Son in Law Mark Stern; Julian, Gabriel and Jeffrey and our grandchildren Oliver, Julian and Elliott. We pray for those we’ve said we’d pray for and those who’ve asked us to pray for them. We pray for the dying as we do each day Lord give them peace in their last breath. We pray for Holy Mother Church. Our prayers for our niece Brittany. In Jesus Precious Blood by His Name we pray. Amen.

Ephesians 6:17-20

09-19-2025 Luke 8 v0103

**Cured of Evil Spirits and Infirmities**

In dusty streets, the Savior walked,

With faithful hearts and voices talked,

Among the throng, He spoke the Word,

A balm for souls, the truth conferred.

Ladies bold, from shadows came,

With grateful hearts, they praised His name,

Mary, Joanna, and others near,

Their stories shared, their purpose clear.

They followed Him through joy and strife,

Transformed by grace, Susanna embraced new life,

With treasures offered, they served His way,

Through them, love's light shone bright each day. Amen.
