The internal components will be preserved, cleaned, and the hard drive capacity expanded, then placed inside a new exterior. What wonders!
So relieved the computer with all of its software and programs that are all paid for can be saved.
So glad for this short break before work begins in earnest on the nine chapters of the Tridentine Documentary's Part 3, followed by the nine chapters of Part 4, for every soul.
Preparing
to executive produce the Tridentine Documentary's Parts 3 and 4, two
documentaries-in-one, and to deliver the entire script containing all 36
sacrificially loving chapters to Saint Joseph on his Feast Day in one
year, on March 19, 2026, two years after the entire project for every
soul was suddenly and unexpectedly delivered on March 19, 2024, the
Feast of Saint Joseph. What wonders!
Joseph Karl Publishing's main operating system is barely operational and an attempt will be made early this week to save it and all the work for very soul that is on it.
Operations have shifted to the new computer which is smaller and of a newer generation, and not capable of working as freely as the old system, away from prying and spying eyes, from the cloud, and incompatible with the programs that were reasonable to purchase only once and did not require perpetual monthly fees to use.
The very unhappy middle finger on this writing left hand continues to have significant problems; giving it lavish attention in an attempt to finally fix and heal it.
Typing at the moment with nine fingers.
The forces of darkness keep shredding the garland at the mantel before the Work of Reparation to the Holy Face of Jesus. Sore losers.
The spiritual warfare has been very intense for more than a few weeks now, no wonder, and it has helped that while maintaining His rigorous production schedule, our Lord has insisted that I rest as it was needed.
Many, many things have taken place during the past year (since the start of 2024) that have defied my human understanding and while God's ways are astounding and I know He has a plan, it was an unfathomably penitential and severely painful year.
Apostolic mission.
At times I take extra care to avoid encountering more pain, particularly when I'm very tired, following an entire lifetime of so inconceivably much of it.
Always, always, always so happy to be with You, Jesus.
As in all things may God's will de done, His way, which is always the right way.
It looks like the Tridentine Documentary's Parts 3 and 4 will follow a trajectory similar to the first 2, one year later, and that Part 3 will be released for Christmas 2025 and Part 4 for Candlemas 2026.What wonders!
Coming one after another through 2025 and into 2026, in print and as videos, the next 18 chapters of the documentary "This is Catholic Courage: The Traditional Tridentine Holy Sacrifice of the Mass Celebrated in Latin," for every soul.
The script for the documentary, Parts 1 - 4, in print, will be made available also and is expected to be about 225 pages.
The projected release for the script containing Parts 1, 2, 3, and 4 (all 36 chapters) is March 2026, perhaps for the Feast of Saint Joseph.
prior to the release of "Meditating on Christ's Passion."
SO MUCH TO WRITE, SO LITTLE TIME
A lot has happened since March 2024; a lot has happened already this year, and already March 2025 appears on the horizon.
THE HOLY SPIRIT PAYS A SPECIAL VISIT EARLY IN 2025
The Holy Spirit visited in an especial way just prior to the Solemnity of the Epiphany in January 2025.
Hoping to write more about that soon.
OUR LORD FINALLY TAKES HIS MESSENGER OUT TO BREAKFAST BUT NOT WHERE EXPECTED, WHAT WONDERS
That happened last Saturday and it was so incredibly beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, beautiful.
I felt the best that morning that I have felt in a long, long time, in fact, longer than I can even remember.
Hoping to write more soon about that very sacrificially loving breakfast encounter with Christ the Divine Bridegroom of every soul.
THE TRIDENTINE DOCUMENTARY'S PARTS 3 AND 4 TAKE SHAPE IN EARLY 2025
The nine chapters for Part 3 have been decided and the final few nine chapters for Part 4 came early Friday morning, while in church at St. Joseph's for the 7:15 a.m. Traditional Tridentine Holy Sacrifice of the Mass prior to heading off to a long day at the clinic.
However, my back was out and the pain was so severe that I can't even remember the last two or the unfathomably beautiful material presented as the Holy Sacrifice was offered to Almighty God on Mount Calvary through Christ the King of Reparation.
Cried all the way to work because the pain was so severe.
So grateful to DMK for having adjusted me first that morning, for MJM for handling everything else while that was accomplished, to our earliest patients for waiting for me to go first that morning, and to our next generation for the tremendously comforting heated vest. +
Hoping to write an update soon regarding year two of the documentary's production, after having recently agreed to executive produce the 18 additional chapters that make up the two additional Parts to the documentary that tells the sacrificially beautiful tale of the ongoing greatest love story of all time, which is the culmination of all the work accomplished so far through the history of Joseph Karl Publishing.
So needed to rest and recover in holy peace, quiet, simplicity, and joy this Saturday; so grateful to God for having received them.
For every soul. Of course there could also be a Part 4. What wonders!

Production on the Tridentine Documentary's Parts 1 and 2 (3:10:35) took 9 months after it had been suddenly and unexpectedly delivered on the Feast of Saint Joseph 2024.
Part 1 was released for every soul during Christmas 2024, and Part 2 was released on Candlemas 2025.
Part 3 had already started coming while Part 2 was still in production, and the go-ahead for it came from On High through the Sacred Heart of Jesus in the evening on the Eve of the
2025 Feast of Saint Valentine.
What a gift!
Thank you, lavishly loving Jesus, Divine King of All Kings, Lord Over All, Divine Lamb of God Who takes away the sins of the world, Divine Redeemer, Divine Restorer, and the Divine Bridegroom of Every Soul.
The Tridentine Documentary's Part 3,
Intro #1
Part 3 has 9 chapters as did Part 1 and Part 2, and it is expected that Part 4 will have 9 chapters as well. The video version of Parts 3 and 4 are expected to be an hour and a half long each, like their counterparts.
No release date is known at this time for Part 3 or for Part 4.
The script for the documentary, Parts 1 - 4 in print, will be made available also and is expected to be slightly over 200 pages.
The Tridentine documentary is to have a Part 3 that is expected to be an hour
and a half long like Part 1 and Part 2. No release date is known yet. What wonders!
THIS IS CATHOLIC COURAGE:
The Traditional Tridentine Holy Sacrifice of the Mass
Not
sure why the video quality of individual images is so unclear during
Part 2 of the Tridentine Documentary, even after increasing the video
quality on YouTube. Hoping a re-rendering of Part 2 will fix this; if it
does, Part 2 and the documentary in full will be re-rendered and
re-released and that will take several days to accomplish. If not they will remain as-is, for every soul.
Re-rendering the Tridentine Documentary's Part 2 this weekend while carefully considering executive producing a Part 3.
An outline of two-thirds of a Part 3 for the Tridentine Documentary, expected to also be an hour and a half long, already exists.
Also hoping to create a new series of wedding theology images for every soul.
The Divine Bridegroom gets what the Divine Bridegroom wants.
God Is At Work In You! highlights God's presence among us and emphasizes how vital recognizing, accepting, returning, and sharing the love of God is to the work we accomplish each day, as living witnesses of our faith, through our evolving personal apostolate.
All content adheres to Sacred Scripture, Sacred Tradition, and the Magisterium of the Roman Catholic Church.
Soul of Christ, sanctify me; Body of Christ, save me; Blood of Christ, inebriate me; Water from Christ's side, wash me; Passion of Christ, strengthen me; O good Jesus, hear me; Within Thy wounds hide me; Suffer me not to be separated from Thee; From the malicious enemy defend me; In the hour of my death call me; And bid me come unto Thee; That I may praise Thee with Thy saints and with Thy angels, Forever and ever, Amen

Prayer To End Abortion
Prayer To End Abortion
Lord God, I thank you today for the gift of my life, and for the lives of all my brothers and sisters. I know there is nothing that destroys more life than abortion, yet I rejoice that you have conquered death by the Resurrection of Your Son. I am ready to do my part in ending abortion. Today I commit myself never to be silent, never to be passive, never to be forgetful of the unborn. I commit myself to be active in the pro-life movement, and never to stop defending life until all my brothers and sisters are protected, and our nation once again becomes a nation with liberty and justice not just for some, but for all, through Christ our Lord. Amen! Source: Priests for Life

O Saint Joseph, we pray to you for those who are out of work, for those who want to earn their living or support their families. You who are the patron of workers; grant that unemployment may vanish from our ranks; that all those who are ready to work may put their strength and abilities in serving their fellowmen and earn a just salary. You are the patron of families; do not let those who have children to support and raise lack the necessary means. Have pity on our brothers and sisters held down in unemployment and poverty because of sickness or social disorders. Help our political leaders and captains of industry find new and just solutions. May each and every one have the joy of contributing, according to his abilities, to the common prosperity by an honorable livelihood. Grant that we may all share together in the abundant goods God has given us and that we may help underprivileged countries. Amen

Act of Contrition: O my God, I am heartily sorry for having offended You and I detest all my sins, because I dread the loss of heaven and the pains of hell; but most of all because they offend You, my God, who are all good and deserving of all my love. I firmly resolve, with the help of Your grace, to confess my sins, to do penance, and to amend my life. Amen.''
Prayer For Priests
Prayer For Priests
Dear Lord, we pray that the Blessed Mother wrap her mantle around Your priests and through her intercession strengthen them for their ministry. We pray that Mary will guide Your priests to follow her own words, “Do whatever He tells you” (Jn 2:5). May Your priests have the heart of St. Joseph, Mary’s most chaste spouse. May the Blessed Mother’s own pierced heart inspire them to embrace all who suffer at the foot of the cross. May Your priests be holy, filled with the fire of Your love seeking nothing but Your greater glory and the salvation of souls. Amen.
Saint John Vianney, pray for us.

Novena to the Infant Jesus of Prague
Novena to the Infant Jesus of Prague
Jesus, You said, "Ask and you shall receive, seek and you shall find, knock and it shall be opened to you." Through the intercession of Mary, Your holy Mother, I knock, I seek. I ask that my prayer be granted (mention your request). Jesus, You said, "All that you ask of the Father in My name, He will grant to you." Through the intercession of Mary, Your holy Mother, I humbly and urgently ask Your Father in Your name that my prayer be granted (mention your request). Jesus, You said, "Heaven and earth shall pass away, but My word shall not pass." Through the intercession of Mary, Your holy Mother, I feel confident that my prayer will be granted (mention your request). To be said for nine consecutive hours or for nine days.
Miraculous Medal Novena Prayer
Miraculous Medal Novena Prayer
O Immaculate Virgin Mary, Mother of our Lord Jesus Christ, and our Mother, we are filled with the most lively confidence in your all-powerful and never-failing intercession, shown so often through the Miraculous Medal. As your loving and trustful children, we ask you to obtain for us the graces and favors we request during this novena, if these will be to our spiritual benefit. (Here, privately mention your petitions.) You know, O Mary, that we want our souls always to be the temples of the Holy Spirit, who hates sin. Obtain for us, then, a deep hatred of sin and that purity of heart which will attach us to God alone, so that our every thought, word and deed may be directed to His greater glory. Obtain for us a spirit of prayer and self-denial, that we may recover by penance what we have lost by sin and eventually enter that heavenly dwelling where you are the Queen of angels and of humanity. Amen.
Prayer of St. John Vianney
Prayer of St. John Vianney
I love You, O my God, And my only desire is to love You Until the last breath of my life. I love You, O my infinitely lovable God, And I would rather die loving You, Than live without loving You.

Prayer to St. Anthony
Blessed be God in His Angels and in His Saints. O Holy St. Anthony, gentlest of Saints, your love for God and charity for His creatures made you worthy, when on earth, to possess miraculous powers. Miracles waited on your word, which you were ever ready to speak for those in trouble or anxiety. Encouraged by this thought, I implore of you to obtain for me (request). The answer to my prayer may require a miracle. Even so, you are the saint of miracles. O gentle and loving St. Anthony, whose heart was ever full of human sympathy, whisper my petition into the ears of the sweet Infant Jesus, who loved to be folded in your arms, and the gratitude of my heart will ever be yours. Amen.

Love Those Church Signs!
Love Those Church Signs!
Faith that has been tested is faith that can be trusted. Heaven: don't miss it for the world! There is no retirement age in serving Jesus. He who dies with the most toys still dies. Sin always has an "I" in the middle. His love endures forever. Is Christ in your Christmas? In every failure God plants a seed of success. Get even: forgive and forget. A clear conscience makes a soft pillow. Patience is the expression of love. Hope in the heart puts a smile on the face. Grace flows down.
