O most holy heart of Jesus, fountain of every blessing, I adore you, I love you, and with lively sorrow for my sins I offer you this poor heart of mine. Make me humble, patient, pure and wholly obedient to your will. Grant, Good Jesus, that I may live in you and for you. Protect me in the midst of danger. Comfort me in my afflictions. Give me health of body, assistance in my temporal needs, your blessing on all that I do, and the grace of a holy death. Amen.

We can become saints in the simple accomplishment of daily life, in the beaten track, the simple path of Nazareth, without adding anything but the great sense of faith and the flame of charity. Look at Mary in Nazareth–no halo, no pedestal, no miracle. Yet she is the Queen of Heaven.” – Fr. Mateo Crawley-Boevey, a great Apostle to the Sacred Heart.

A few years ago a petite, mature and silver hair woman stopped by the St. Gabriel Radio studios. She introduced herself confidently as Rose Ann Bieckelman. Rose Ann contracted cancer and faced it with prayer and love. Right before a cancer treatment 2015 she shared a beautiful message of hope for our listeners.
During our current storm, we need to be reminded of the hope that comes from our loving God. If you, or someone you know, has a few words of hope to share with St. Gabriel Radio listeners, call the new St. Gabriel Radio Hopeline. To record your message:
