God's WordEASTER WEEK 7 THURSDAY
21-MAY-2026 Readings
1ST READING: Acts 22:30; 23:6-11
In those days: Desiring to know the real reason why the Jews accused Paul, the tribune unbound him, and commanded the chief priests and all the council to meet, and he brought Paul down and set him before them. But when Paul perceived that one part were Sadducees and the other Pharisees, he cried out in the council, "Brethren, I am a Pharisee, a son of Pharisees; with respect to the hope and the resurrection of the dead I am on trial." And when he had said this, a dissension arose between the Pharisees and the Sadducees; and the assembly was divided. For the Sadducees say that there is no resurrection, nor angel, nor spirit; but the Pharisees acknowledge them all. Then a great clamour arose; and some of the scribes of the Pharisees' party stood up and contended, "We find nothing wrong in this man. What if a spirit or an angel spoke to him?" And when the dissension became violent, the tribune, afraid that Paul would be torn in pieces by them, commanded the soldiers to go down and take him by force from among them and bring him into the barracks. The following night the Lord stood by him and said, "Take courage, for as you have testified about me at Jerusalem, so you must bear witness also at Rome."
The Word of The Lord!
Responsorial Psalm Psalm 16
📢 R. Preserve me, O God, for in you I take refuge. or ALLELUIA.
Preserve me, God, for in you I take refuge. I say to the Lord: 'You are my Lord! O Lord, it is you who are my portion and cup; you yourself who secure my lot.'
R. Preserve me, O God, for in you I take refuge. or ALLELUIA.
I will bless the Lord who gives me counsel, who even at night directs my heart. I keep the Lord before me always; with him at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
*R. Preserve me, O God, for in you I take refuge. or ALLELUIA.*
And so, my heart rejoices, my soul is glad; even my flesh shall rest in hope. For you will not abandon my soul to hell, nor let your holy one see corruption.
R. Preserve me, O God, for in you I take refuge. or ALLELUIA.
You will show me the path of life, the fullness of joy in your presence, at your right hand, bliss forever.
R. Preserve me, O God, for in you I take refuge. or ALLELUIA.
The Word of The Lord!
ACCLAMATION: John 17:21
R. ALLELUIA.
May they all be one; even as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, so that the world may believe that you have sent me, says the Lord.
R. ALLELUIA.
GOSPEL John 17:20-26
At that time: [ Jesus lifted his eyes to heaven and prayed, saying, "I do not pray for these only, but also for those who believe in me through their word, that they may all be one; even as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me. The glory which you have given me I have given to them, that they may be one even as we are one, I in them and you in me, that they may become perfectly one, so that the world may know that you have sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me. Father, I desire that they also, whom you have given me, may be with me where I am, to behold my glory which you have given me in your love for me before the foundation of the world. O righteous Father, the world has not known you, but I have known you; and these know that you have sent me. I made known to them your name, and I will make it known, that the love with which you have loved me may be in them, and I in them."
The Gospel of The Lord!
Reflection:
At the Last Supper, Jesus prays that all of us who believe in Him might be one (cf. Jn 17:21). Unfortunately, over the past twenty centuries, His Church on earth has been increasingly divided. Many people will go the extra mile to ensure that the desire of a dying person is fulfilled after his/her death. Similarly, Christians, individually and collectively, have to do more to realise the unity Jesus prayed for. The task ahead is indeed enormous and beyond the capacity of humans. Therefore the starting point is to seek divine intervention through sincere prayers, undertaken by individuals and the various "churches". In addition, we must all be open to the working of the Holy Spirit and honestly promote the Christian unity activities that He inspires. Jesus, I trust in you.

La Parola di DioSETTIMANA DI PASQUA 7 MERCOLEDÌ
20-MAG-2026 Letture
1ª LETTURA: Atti 20:28-38
In quei giorni: Paolo disse agli anziani della Chiesa di Efeso, "Fate attenzione a voi stessi e a tutto il gregge, nel quale lo Spirito Santo vi ha costituiti custodi, per pascere la chiesa del Signore che ha acquistato con il proprio sangue. So che dopo la mia partenza, verranno tra voi lupi feroci, che non risparmieranno il gregge; e tra di voi stessi sorgeranno uomini che diranno cose perverse, per attirare i discepoli dopo di loro. Pertanto, state in guardia, ricordando che per tre anni non ho cessato notte e giorno di ammonire ognuno con lacrime. E ora vi affido a Dio e alla parola della sua grazia, che può edificarvi e darvi l'eredità fra tutti quelli che sono santificati. Non ho desiderato né argento né oro né vestiti di nessuno. Voi stessi sapete che queste mani hanno provveduto alle mie necessità e a quelle di coloro che erano con me. In tutte le cose vi ho mostrato che, lavorando in tal modo, si deve aiutare i deboli, ricordando le parole del Signore Gesù, come ha detto: 'È più benedetto dare che ricevere.'" E quando ebbe detto così, si inginocchiò e pregò con tutti loro. E tutti piansero e abbracciarono Paolo e lo baciavano, rattristandosi soprattutto per le parole che aveva detto, che non avrebbero più visto il suo volto. E lo portarono alla nave.

19-MAY-2026 Readings
1ST READING: Acts 20:17-27
In those days, from Miletus,s Paul went to Ephesus and called to him the elders of the Church. And when they came to him, he said to them: "You yourselves know how I lived among you all the time from the first day that I set foot in Asia, serving the Lord with all humility and with tears and with trials which befell me through the plots of the Jews; how I did not shrink from declaring to you anything that was profitable, and teaching you in public and from house to house, testifying both to Jews and to Greeks of repentance to God and of faith in our Lord Jesus Christ. And now, behold, I am going to Jerusalem, bound in the Spirit, not knowing what shall befall me there; except that the Holy Spirit testifies to me in every city that imprisonment and afflictions await me. But I do not account my life of any value nor as precious to myself, if only I may accomplish my course and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify to the gospel of the grace of God. And now, behold, I know that all you among whom I have gone preaching the kingdom will see my face no more. Therefore I testify to you this day that I am innocent of the blood of all of you, for I did not shrink from declaring to you the whole counsel of God.
The Word of The Lord!
Responsorial Psalm Psalm 68
📢 R. You kingdoms of the earth, sing to God. or ALLELUIA.
You poured down, O God, a generous rain; when your people languished, you restored their inheritance. It was there that your flock began to dwell. In your goodness, O God, you provided for the poor.
R. You kingdoms of the earth, sing to God. or ALLELUIA.
Day after day, may the Lord be blest. He bears our burdens; God is our saviour. This God of ours is a God who saves. The Lord our Lord provides an escape from death.
R. You kingdoms of the earth, sing to God. or ALLELUIA.
The Word of The Lord!
ACCLAMATION: John 14:16
R. ALLELUIA.
I will pray the Father, and he will give you another Counsellor, to be with you forever.
R. ALLELUIA.
GOSPEL John 17:1-11
At that time: Jesus lifted his eyes to heaven and said, "Father, the hour has come; glorify your Son that the Son may glorify you, since you have given him power over all flesh, to give eternal life to all whom you have given him. And this is eternal life, that they know you the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent. I glorified you on earth, having accomplished the work which you gave me to do; and now, Father, glorify me in your own presence with the glory which I had with you before the world was made. "I have manifested your name to the men whom you gave me out of the world; yours they were, and you gave them to me, and they have kept your word. Now they know that everything that you have given me is from you; for I have given them the words which you gave me, and they have received them and know in truth that I came from you; and they have believed that you did send me. I am praying for them; I am not praying for the world but for those whom you have given me, for they are yours; all mine are yours, and yours are mine, and I am glorified in them. And now I am no more in the world, but they are in the world, and I am coming to you.
The Gospel of The Lord!
Reflection:
Paul is often conscious of God's immeasurable mercy upon him. That is, conscious of his past as a persecutor of Christians and a blasphemer against Christ, he is overwhelmed by the grace of salvation and the call to be an apostle. Hence, Paul endeavours to serve the Lord with humility. And this is exactly what he exhorts the elders of the Church in Ephesus to do: "You yourselves know how lived among you the entire time from the first day that set foot in Asia, serving the Lord with all humility and with tears, enduring the trials (Acts 20:18-19). Like Paul, we also do not deserve mercies, graces, and other blessings of God. We should therefore always serve Him with humility. Jesus, I trust in you.

God's WordEASTER WEEK 7 MONDAY
18-MAY-2026 Readings
1ST READING: Acts 19:1-8
While Apollos was at Corinth, Paul passed through the upper country and came to Ephesus. There he found some disciples. And he said to them, "Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?" And they said, "No, we have never even heard that there is a Holy Spirit." And he said, "Into what then were you baptized?" They said, "Into John's baptism." And Paul said, "John baptized with the baptism of repentance, telling the people to believe in the one who was to come after him, that is, Jesus." On hearing this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Spirit came on them; and they spoke with tongues and prophesied. There were about twelve of them in all. And he entered the synagogue and for three months spoke boldly, arguing and pleading about the kingdom of God.
The Word of The Lord!
Responsorial Psalm Psalm 68
📢 R. You kingdoms of the earth, sing to God. or ALLELUIA.
Let God arise; let his foes be scattered. Let those who hate him flee from his face. As smoke is driven away, so drive them away; like wax that melts before the fire, so the wicked shall perish at the presence of God.
R. You kingdoms of the earth, sing to God. or ALLELUIA.
But the just shall rejoice at the presence of God; they shall exult with glad rejoicing. O sing to God; make music to his name. The Lord is his name.
R. You kingdoms of the earth, sing to God. or ALLELUIA.
Father of orphans, defender of widows: such is God in his holy place. God gives the desolate a home to dwell in; he leads the prisoners forth into prosperity.
*R. You kingdoms of the earth, sing to God. or ALLELUIA.*
The Word of The Lord!
ACCLAMATION: Colossians 3:1
R. ALLELUIA.
If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.
R. ALLELUIA.
GOSPEL John 16:29-33
At that time: The disciples said to Jesus, "Ah, now you are speaking plainly, not in any figure! Now we know that you know all things, and need none to question you; by this we believe that you came from God." Jesus answered them, "Do you now believe? The hour is coming, indeed it has come, when you will be scattered, every man to his home, and will leave me alone; yet I am not alone, for the Father is with me. I have said this to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world."
The Gospel of The Lord!
Reflection:
In times of trouble and difficulty, it is very hard to know God. But for us in Christ, "We know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him." Jesus tells His disciples that troubles will come, but that their peace should be in Him. Peace isn't the absence of trouble, but the presence of God even in our troubles. It is that confidence that God is still in control. We sometimes think that peace comes from knowing the right things, but instead it comes from knowing the right Person. Knowing Jesus and trusting Him will give us that peace which the world cannot give. Jesus, I trust in you.

God's Word*7TH SUNDAY OF EASTER YEAR A*
*17-MAY-2026 Readings*
*1ST READING: Acts 1:12-14*
*[After Jesus was taken up into heaven] the apostles returned to Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, a sabbath day's journey away; and when they had entered, they went up to the upper room, where they were staying, Peter and John and James and Andrew, Philip and Thomas, Bartholomew and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus and Simon the Zealot and Judas the son of James. All these, with one accord, devoted themselves to prayer, together with the women and Mary, the mother of Jesus, and with his brothers.*
*The Word of The Lord!*
*Responsorial Psalm, Psalm 27*
*📢 R. I believe that I shall see the Lord's goodness in the land of the living. Or ALLELUIA.*
The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life; whom should I dread?
*R. I believe that I shall see the Lord's goodness in the land of the living. Or ALLELUIA.*
There is one thing I ask of the Lord, only this do I seek: to live in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to gaze on the beauty of the Lord, to inquire at his temple.
*R. I believe that I shall see the Lord's goodness in the land of the living. Or ALLELUIA.*
O Lord, hear my voice when I call; have mercy and answer me. Of you, my heart has spoken, 'Seek his face.'
*R. I believe that I shall see the Lord's goodness in the land of the living. Or ALLELUIA.*
*2ND READING: 1 Peter 4:13-16*
*Beloved: Rejoice in so far as you share Christ's sufferings, that you may also rejoice and be glad when his glory is revealed. If you are reproached for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. But let none of you suffer as a murderer, or a thief, or a wrongdoer, or a mischief-maker; yet if one suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but under that name let him glorify God.*
*The Word of The Lord!*
*ACCLAMATION: John 14:18*
*R. ALLELUIA.*
I will not leave you orphans, says the Lord; I will come back to you, and your hearts will rejoice.
*R. ALLELUIA.*
*GOSPEL John 17:1-11*
*Jesus raised his eyes to heaven and said, “Father, the hour has come. Give glory to your son, so that your son may glorify you, just as you gave him authority over all people, so that your son may give eternal life to all you gave him. Now this is eternal life, that they should know you, the only true God, and the one whom you sent, Jesus Christ. I glorified you on earth by accomplishing the work that you gave me to do. Now glorify me, Father, with you, with the glory that I had with you before the world began. “I revealed your name to those whom you gave me out of the world. They belonged to you, and you gave them to me, and they have kept your word. Now they know that everything you gave me is from you, because the words you gave to me I have given to them, and they accepted them and truly understood that I came from you, and they have believed that you sent me. I pray for them. I do not pray for the world but for the ones you have given me, because they are yours, and everything of mine is yours and everything of yours is mine, and I have been glorified in them. And now I will no longer be in the world, but they are in the world, while I am coming to you.”*
*The Gospel of The Lord!*
*Reflection:*
*The words of the Popes:*
*“Father, the hour has come; glorify your Son that the Son may glorify you” (Jn 17:1). The glorification that Jesus asks for himself as High Priest, is the entry into full obedience to the Father, an obedience that leads to his fullest filial condition: “And now, Father, glorify me in your own presence with the glory which I had with you before the world was made” (Jn 17:5). This readiness and this request are the first act of the new priesthood of Jesus, which is a total gift of himself on the Cross and on the Cross itself — the supreme act of love — he is glorified because love is the true glory, the divine glory. The second moment of this prayer is the intercession that Jesus makes for the disciples who have been with him. They are those of whom Jesus can say to the Father: “I have manifested your name to the men whom you gave me out of the world; yours they were, and you gave them to me, and they have kept your word” (Jn 17:6). This “manifesting God’s name to m en” is the fulfilment of a new presence of the Father among the people, for humanity. This “manifesting” is not only a word, but is reality in Jesus; God is with us, and so his name — his presence with us, his being one of us — is “fulfilled”. This manifestation is thus realized in the Incarnation of the Word. In Jesus God enters human flesh, he becomes close in a new and unique way. And this presence culminates in the sacrifice that Jesus makes in his Pasch o
f death and Resurrection. Jesus, I trust in you.*

God's WordEASTER WEEK 6 FRIDAY
15-MAY-2026 Readings
1ST READING: Acts 18:9-18
[When Paul was in Corinth,] the Lord said to him one night in a vision, "Do not be afraid, but speak and do not be silent; for I am with you, and no man shall attack you to harm you; for I have many people in this city." And he stayed a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them. But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews made a united attack upon Paul and brought him before the tribunal, saying, "This man is persuading men to worship God contrary to the law." But when Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, "If it were a matter of wrongdoing or vicious crime, I should have reason to bear with you, O Jews; but since it is a matter of questions about words and names and your own law, see to it yourselves; I refuse to be a judge of these things." And he drove them from the tribunal. And they all seized Sosthenes, the ruler of the synagogue, and beat him in front of the tribunal. But Gallio paid no attention to this. After this, Paul stayed many days longer, and then took leave of the brethren and sailed for Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila. At Cenchreae he cut his hair, for he had a vow.
The Word of The Lord!
Responsorial Psalm Psalm 47
📢 R. God is king of all the earth. Or ALLELUIA.
All people, clap your hands. Cry to God with shouts of joy! For the Lord, the Most High, is awesome, the great king over all the earth.

Go and make disciples of all nations, says the Lord; I am with you always, to the close of the age.

GOSPEL John 16:20-23
At that time: Jesus said to his disciples, “Truly, truly, I say to you, you will weep and lament, but the world will rejoice; you will be sorrowful, but your sorrow will turn into joy. When a woman is in travail she has sorrow, because her hour has come; but when she is delivered of the child, she no longer remembers the anguish, for joy that a child is born into the world. So you have sorrow now, but I will see you again and your hearts will rejoice, and no one will take your joy from you. On that day, you will ask nothing of me.
The Gospel of The Lord!
Reflection:
Augustine of Canterbury comes across today as a very human saint, one who could suffer like many of us from failure of nerve. For example, his first venture to England ended in a big U-turn back to Rome. He made mistakes and met with failure in his peacemaking attempts with the British Christians. He often wrote to Rome for decisions on matters he could have decided on his own had he been more self-assured. He even received mild warnings from Pope Gregory, who cautioned him to "fear, lest, amidst the wonders that are done, the weak mind be puffed by self-esteem." Augustine's perseverance amidst obstacles and only partial success teaches us to carry on despite the many obstacles we encounter. Jesus, I trust in you.

1ST READING: Acts 18:9-18
[When Paul was in Corinth,] the Lord said to him one night in a vision, "Do not be afraid, but speak and do not be silent; for I am with you, and no man shall attack you to harm you; for I have many people in this city." And he stayed a year and six months, teaching the word of God among them. But when Gallio was proconsul of Achaia, the Jews made a united attack upon Paul and brought him before the tribunal, saying, "This man is persuading men to worship God contrary to the law." But when Paul was about to open his mouth, Gallio said to the Jews, "If it were a matter of wrongdoing or vicious crime, I should have reason to bear with you, O Jews; but since it is a matter of questions about words and names and your own law, see to it yourselves; I refuse to be a judge of these things." And he drove them from the tribunal. And they all seized Sosthenes, the ruler of the synagogue, and beat him in front of the tribunal. But Gallio paid no attention to this. After this, Paul stayed many days longer, and then took leave of the brethren and sailed for Syria, and with him Priscilla and Aquila. At Cenchreae he cut his hair, for he had a vow.

14-MAY-2026 Readings
1ST READING: Acts 1:1-11
In the first book, O Theophilus, I have dealt with all that Jesus began to do and teach, until the day when he was taken up, after he had given commandment through the Holy Spirit to the apostles whom he had chosen. To them he presented himself alive after his passion by many proofs, appearing to them during forty days, and speaking of the kingdom of God. And while staying with them he charged them not to depart from Jerusalem, but to wait for the promise of the Father, which, he said, "you heard from me, for John baptized with water, but before many days you shall be baptized with the Holy Spirit." So when they had come together, they asked him, " Lord, will you at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?" He said to them, "It is not for you to know times and seasons which the Father has fixed by his own authority. But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria and to the end of the earth." And when he had said this, as they were looking on, he was lifted up, and a cloud took him out of their sight. And while they were gazing into heaven as he went, behold, two men stood by them in white robes, and said, "Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into heaven? This Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will come in the same way as you saw him go into heaven."

2ND READING: Ephesians 1:17-23
Brethren: May the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give you a spirit of wisdom and of revelation in the knowledge of him, having the eyes of your hearts enlightened, that you may know what is the hope to which he has called you, what are the riches of his glorious inheritance in the saints, and what is the immeasurable greatness of his power in us who believe, according to the working of his great might which he accomplished in Christ when he raised him from the dead and made him sit at his right hand in the heavenly places, far above all rule and authority and power and dominion, and above every name that is named, not only in this age but also in that which is to come; and he has put all things under his feet and has made him the head over all things for the church, which is his body, the fullness of him who fills all in all.

GOSPEL Matthew 28:16-20
At that time: The eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain to which Jesus had directed them. And when they saw him they worshipped him; but some doubted. And Jesus came and said to them, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you; and behold, I am with you always, to the close of the age."
The Gospel of The Lord!
Reflection:
The words of the Popes:
With the Ascension, something new and beautiful happened: Jesus brought our humanity, our flesh, into heaven — this is the first time — that is, he brought it in God. That humanity that he had assumed on earth did not remain here. The risen Jesus was not a spirit, no. He had his human body, flesh and bones, everything. He will be there in God forever. We could say that from the day of the Ascension on, God himself “changed” — from then on, he is not only spirit, but such is his love for us that he bears our own flesh in himself, our humanity! The place awaiting us is thus indicated; that is our destiny. (…) What does Jesus do in heaven? He is there for us before the Father, continually showing our humanity to him — showing him his wounds. I like to think that Jesus, prays like this in front of the Father — showing him his wounds. “This is what I suffered for humanity: Do something!” He shows him the price of redemption and the Father is moved. This is something I like to think about. This is how Jesus prays. He did not leave us alone. In fact, before ascending, he told us, as the Gospel says today, “I am with you always, to the close of the age” (Mt 28:20). Jesus, I trust in you.

Dear Treasure Island Partners,
First and foremost, we want to thank every single one of you for your patience, belief, support, and continued excitement surrounding Treasure Island and everything we’ve been building behind the scenes.
We’re incredibly excited to officially announce that Connect Edge is now fully funded and fully operational.
Over the past several weeks, we have been building out our infrastructure, hiring staff, training our teams, and preparing for full launch. Last week we completed our initial training programs, and this week we’re continuing final onboarding and additional training with our sales, concierge, and social media teams.
Starting immediately, we are now moving full speed ahead.
Our primary focus right now is acquiring merchants and generating substantial recurring cash flow through Connect Edge — cash flow that will now fund the development and expansion of everything we originally envisioned across our entire ecosystem.
For the first time ever, we finally have the financial engine in place to execute at the level we always intended.
To be completely transparent, the biggest obstacle we faced over the past several years was capital. We had the vision, the strategy, the products, and the platforms planned out — but we were always undercapitalized. That slowed things down significantly.
Connect Edge changes everything.
Now that Connect Edge is live and operational, we fully expect to begin launching multiple platforms by September and to launch Season One of Treasure Island by the end of this year.
In addition to Treasure Island, we now expect all major software systems, platforms, products, and companies we’ve discussed to be fully built out and operational by year-end. This is the moment we’ve been working toward.
With that being said, we also need to officially address the Treasure Island crowdfunding campaign.
As many of you know, our original objective was to raise $1 million to fund the development and launch of Treasure Island and the surrounding ecosystem. That is no longer necessary.
Because of Connect Edge, we no longer need outside fundraising to build these projects. And because of that, we are officially announcing the permanent closure of the Treasure Island crowdfunding campaign.
As promised, we are giving all existing Treasure Island partners and members an official 30-day notice before permanently shutting it down.
Beginning Thursday, May 14th at 9:00 PM Eastern Time, we will begin hosting final presentations regarding the Treasure Island opportunity, available units, and Connect Coins.
The crowdfunding campaign will officially and permanently close on June 15th.
After June 15th:
• No additional units will ever be made available
• No additional fundraising will ever occur
• Connect Coins will increase from the current $0.10 pricing to $1.00 per coin
• The opportunity to participate at these early levels will be gone permanently
After June 15th, we are no longer raising capital across the board.
Connect Edge is now positioned to generate the revenue and infrastructure needed to fund everything internally moving forward.
This final 30-day window exists because we made a promise to all of you that we would provide advance notice before closing the opportunity forever — and we fully intend to honor that promise.
For those who have been sitting on the fence, we completely understand. Startups take time, and building something of this scale has not been easy.
But now, for the first time, the foundation is truly in place.
This is the final opportunity for anyone who wants to:
• Secure Treasure Island units
• Acquire Connect Coins at $0.10 before the increase to $1.00
• Participate before the ecosystem officially launches
• Position themselves ahead of what we believe will become a massive long-term global expansion
We also want to remind everyone that the Treasure Island network has grown to 8,900 registered members who have expressed interest in the project and have been helping spread awareness and referrals throughout the community.
Out of the 8900 partners, we had 1041 partners who helped to fund Treasure Island. As always, participation in the compensation structure only applies to individuals who personally participate through funding and/or referrals.
If you would like to learn more, ask questions, or see the final presentations before we officially close all fundraising down permanently, we invite you to join us:
Thursday, May 14th, 21st, 28th, June 4th and June 11th.
*9:00 PM Eastern Time*
https://us06web.zoom.us/j/85460399323
This is the final chapter of fundraising — and the beginning of execution.
We are incredibly excited for what’s ahead and grateful to have all of you with us on this journey.
We look forward to seeing you on Thursday.
Sincerely,
Jeff

Our primary focus right now is acquiring merchants and generating substantial recurring cash flow through Connect Edge — cash flow that will now fund the development and expansion of everything we originally envisioned across our entire ecosystem.
For the first time ever, we finally have the financial engine in place to execute at the level we always intended.
To be completely transparent, the biggest obstacle we faced over the past several years was capital. We had the vision, the strategy, the products, and the platforms planned out — but we were always undercapitalized. That slowed things down significantly.
Connect Edge changes everything.
Now that Connect Edge is live and operational, we fully expect to begin launching multiple platforms by September and to launch Season One of Treasure Island by the end of this year.
In addition to Treasure Island, we now expect all major software systems, platforms, products, and companies we’ve discussed to be fully built out and operational by year-end. This is the moment we’ve been working toward.
With that being said, we also need to officially address the Treasure Island crowdfunding campaign.
As many of you know, our original objective was to raise $1 million to fund the development and launch of Treasure Island and the surrounding ecosystem. That is no longer necessary.
Because of Connect Edge, we no longer need outside fundraising to build these projects. And because of that, we are officially announcing the permanent closure of the Treasure Island crowdfunding campaign.
As promised, we are giving all existing Treasure Island partners and members an official 30-day notice before permanently shutting it down.
Beginning Thursday, May 14th at 9:00 PM Eastern Time, we will begin hosting final presentations regarding the Treasure Island opportunity, available units, and Connect Coins.
The crowdfunding campaign will officially and permanently close on June 15th.
After June 15th:
• No additional units will ever be made available
• No additional fundraising will ever occur
• Connect Coins will increase from the current $0.10 pricing to $1.00 per coin
• The opportunity to participate at these early levels will be gone permanently
After June 15th, we are no longer raising capital across the board.
Connect Edge is now positioned to generate the revenue and infrastructure needed to fund everything internally moving forward.
This final 30-day window exists because we made a promise to all of you that we would provide advance notice before closing the opportunity forever — and we fully intend to honor that promise.
For those who have been sitting on the fence, we completely understand. Startups take time, and building something of this scale has not been easy.
But now, for the first time, the foundation is truly in place.
This is the final opportunity for anyone who wants to:
• Secure Treasure Island units
• Acquire Connect Coins at $0.10 before the increase to $1.00
• Participate before the ecosystem officially launches
• Position themselves ahead of what we believe will become a massive long-term global expansion
We also want to remind everyone that the Treasure Island network has grown to 8,900 registered members who have expressed interest in the project and have been helping spread awareness and referrals throughout the community.
Out of the 8900 partners, we had 1041 partners who helped to fund Treasure Island. As always, participation in the compensation structure only applies to individuals who personally participate through funding and/or referrals.
If you would like to learn more, ask questions, or see the final presentations before we officially close all fundraising down permanently, we invite you to join us:
Thursday, May 14th, 21st, 28th, June 4th and June 11th.
*9:00 PM Eastern Time*
https://us06web.zoom.us/j/85460399323
This is the final chapter of fundraising — and the beginning of execution.
We are incredibly excited for what’s ahead and grateful to have all of you with us on this journey.
We look forward to seeing you on Thursday.
Sincerely,
Jeff

13-MAY-2026 Readings
1ST READING: Acts 17:15.22-18:1
In those days: Those who conducted Paul brought him as far as Athens; and receiving a command for Silas and Timothy to come to him as soon as possible, they departed. So Paul, standing in the middle of the Areopagus, said: "Men of Athens, I perceive that in every way you are very religious. For as I passed along, and observed the objects of your worship, I found also an altar with this inscription, 'To an unknown god. What, therefore, you worship as unknown, this I proclaim to you. The God who made the world and everything in it, being Lord of heaven and earth, does not live in shrines made by man, nor is he served by human hands, as though he needed anything, since he himself gives to all men life and breath and everything. And he made from one every nation of men to live on all the face of the earth, having determined allotted periods and the boundaries of their habitation, that they should seek God, in the hope that they might feel after him and find him. Yet he is not far from each one of us, for 'In him we live and move and have our being'; as even some of your poets have said, 'For we are indeed his offspring.' Being then God's offspring, we ought not to think that the Deity is like gold, or silver, or stone, a representation by the art and imagination of man. The times of ignorance God overlooked, but now he commands all men everywhere to repent, because he has fixed a day on which he will judge the world in righteousness by a man whom he has appointed, and of this he has given assurance to all men by raising him from the dead." Now when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked; but others said, "We will hear you again about this." So Paul went out from among them. But some of the Psalm 148 men joined him and believed, among them Dionysius the Areopagite, a woman named Damaris, and others with them. After this, he left Athens and went to Corinth.
The Word of The Lord!

At that time: Jesus said to his disciples, "I have yet many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. When the Spirit of truth comes, he will guide you into all the truth; for he will not speak on his own authority, but whatever he hears he will speak, and he will declare to you the things that are to come. He will glorify me, for he will take what is mine and declare it to you. All that the Father has is mine; therefore I said that he will take what is mine and declare it to you.
The Gospel of The Lord!
Reflection:
The truth Christ needs to tell the disciples would require supernatural understanding. This is the thing they currently do not possess. Jesus knows their weakness just as He knows ours. He therefore promises them the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of Truth, to lead and guide them. When we stand at the edge of life, bearing the unbearable, something stunning can happen. The Spirit will guide us into all truth. The Spirit will declare and offer all that Jesus has and all that the Father has. Nothing is withheld. Don't be agitated or devastated when you face trials and temptations for, in the midst of those unbearable realities, we are being guided into all truth. They transform us from patients to physicians. Jesus, I trust in you.

1ST READING: Acts 16:22-34
In those days: The crowd of Philippians joined in attacking Paul and Silas; and the magistrates tore the garments of them and gave orders to beat them with rods. And when they had inflicted many blows upon them, they threw them into prison, charging the jailer to keep them safely. Having received this charge, he put them into the inner prison and fastened their feet in the stocks. But about midnight Paul and Silas were praying and singing hymns to God, and the prisoners were listening to them, and suddenly there was a great earthquake, so that the foundations of the prison were shaken; and immediately all the doors were opened and everyone's chains were unfastened. When the jailer woke and saw that the prison doors were open, he drew his sword and was about to kill himself, supposing that the prisoners had escaped. But Paul cried with a loud voice, "Do not harm yourself, for we are all here." And he called for lights and rushed in, and trembling with fear he fell down before Paul and Silas, and brought them out and said, "Men, what must do to be saved?" And they said, "Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved, you and your household." And they spoke the word of the Lord to him and to all that were in his house. And he took them the same hour of the night, and washed their wounds, and he was baptized at once, with all his family. Then he brought them up into his house, and set food before them; and he rejoiced with all his household that he had believed in God.

GOSPEL John 16:5-11
At that time: Jesus said to his disciples, "Now I am going to him who sent me; yet none of you asks me, 'Where are you going?' But because I have said these things to you, sorrow has filled your hearts. Nevertheless I tell you the truth: it is to your advantage that I go away, for if I do not go away, the Counsellor will not come to you; but if I go, will send him to you. And when he comes, he will convince the world of sin and righteousness and judgment: concerning sin, because they do not believe in me; concerning righteousness, because I go to the Father, and you will see me no more; concerning judgment, because the ruler of this world is judged."
The Gospel of The Lord!
Reflection:
In a way, authentic Christians are on trial their entire lives. They are accused, tempted and abused by the world and the devil. All the lies and abuses are intended to do one thing: destroy their faith in Jesus Christ as their Saviour. Jesus knows that, left alone, we will not be able to defend ourselves, we will be lost and condemned because we not only fight against flesh and blood but against principalities and powers in the heavenly places (Eph. 6:12). That is why He sends the Holy Spirit: to defend the truth about sin, righteousness and judgment. This Holy Spirit works in our hearts and minds, to bring us to faith in Christ. Be open to the Spirit.

1ST READING: Acts 16:11-15
Setting sail from Troas, we made a direct voyage to Samothrace, and the following day to Neapolis, and from there to Philippi, which is the leading city of the district of Macedonia, and a Roman colony. We remained in this city some days, and on the sabbath day, we went outside the gate to the riverside, where we supposed there was a place of prayer; and we sat down and spoke to the women who had come together. One who heard us was a woman named Lydia, from the city of Thyatira, a seller of purple goods, who was a worshiper of God. The Lord opened her heart to listen to what was said by Paul. And when she was baptized, with her household, she begged us, saying, "If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come to my house and stay." And she prevailed upon us.

At that time: Jesus said to his disciples, "When the Counsellor comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, he will bear witness to me; and you also are witnesses, because you have been with me from the beginning. "I have said all this to you to keep you from falling away. They will put you out of the synagogues; indeed, the hour is coming when whoever kills you will think he is offering service to God. And they will do this because they have not known the Father, nor me. But I have said these things to you, that when their hour comes you may remember that I told you of them."
The Gospel of The Lord!
Reflection:
Pope Francis in his Apostolic Exhortation, "The Joy of the GOSPEL" tells us that, "every Christian is challenged, here and now, to be actively engaged in evangelization." Today, Christ instructs His disciples to announce the good news, reassuring them that the Holy Spirit will support them in giving witness to that good news. Despite the difficulties and persecution that will accompany that mission, they will surely stand their ground because they have a solid foundation. When you walk in the way of Christ, honesty, sincerity, purity of life, and peace become part of you. Don't forget that the world will listen more to you if you are a living witness. The light of the Spirit will always attract. Jesus, I trust in you.

EASTER WEEK 6 MONDAY
11-MAY-2026 Readings
1ST READING: Acts 16:11-15
Setting sail from Troas, we made a direct voyage to Samothrace, and the following day to Neapolis, and from there to Philippi, which is the leading city of the district of Macedonia, and a Roman colony. We remained in this city some days, and on the sabbath day, we went outside the gate to the riverside, where we supposed there was a place of prayer; and we sat down and spoke to the women who had come together. One who heard us was a woman named Lydia, from the city of Thyatira, a seller of purple goods, who was a worshiper of God. The Lord opened her heart to listen to what was said by Paul. And when she was baptized, with her household, she begged us, saying, "If you have judged me to be faithful to the Lord, come to my house and stay." And she prevailed upon us.
The Word of The Lord!
Responsorial Psalm Psalm 149
📢 R. The Lord takes delight in his people. Or ALLELUIA.
Sing a new song to the Lord, his praise in the assembly of the faithful. Let Israel rejoice in its Maker; let Sion's children exult in their king.
R. The Lord takes delight in his people. Or ALLELUIA.
Let them praise his name with dancing, and make music with timbrel and harp. For the Lord takes delight in his people; he crowns the poor with salvation.

09-MAY-2026 Readings
1ST READING: Acts 16:1-10
In those days: Paul came to Derbe and to Lystra. A disciple was there, named Timothy, the son of a Jewish woman who was a believer; but his father was a Greek. He was well spoken of by the brethren at Lystra and Iconium. Paul wanted Timothy to accompany him; and he took him and circumcised him because of the Jews that were in those places, for they all knew that his father was a Greek As they went on their way through the cities, they delivered to them for observance the decisions which had been reached by the apostles and elders who were at Jerusalem. So the churches were strengthened in the faith, and they increased in numbers daily. And they went through the region of Phrygia and Galatia, having been forbidden by the Holy Spirit to speak the word in Asia. And when they had come opposite Mysia, they attempted to go into Bithynia, but the Spirit of Jesus did not allow them; so, passing by Mysia, they went down to Troas. And a vision appeared to Paul in the night: a man of Macedonia was standing pleading with him and saying, "Come over to Macedonia and help us." And when he had seen the vision, immediately we sought to go on into Macedonia, concluding that God had called us to preach the gospel to them.
The Word of The Lord!
Responsorial Psalm Psalm 100
📢 R. Cry out with joy to the Lord, all the earth. Or ALLELUIA.
Cry out with joy to the Lord, all the earth. Serve the Lord with gladness. Come before him, singing for joy.
R. Cry out with joy to the Lord, all the earth. Or ALLELUIA.
Know that he, the Lord, is God. He made us; we belong to him. We are his people, the sheep of his flock.
*R. Cry out with joy to the Lord, all the earth. Or ALLELUIA.*
Indeed, how good is the Lord, eternal in his merciful love. He is faithful from age to age.
*R. Cry out with joy to the Lord, all the earth. Or ALLELUIA.*
The Word of The Lord!
ACCLAMATION: Colossians 3:1
R. ALLELUIA.
If then you have been raised with Christ, seek the things that are above, where Christ is seated at the right hand of God.
R. ALLELUIA.
GOSPEL John 15:18-21
At that time: Jesus said to his disciples, "If the world hates you, know that it has hated me before it hated you. If you were of the world, the world would love its own; but because you are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. Remember the word that I said to you, 'A servant is not greater than his master.' If they persecuted me, they will persecute you; if they kept my word, they will keep yours also. But all this they will do to you on my account, because they do not know him who sent me.
The Gospel of The Lord!
Reflection:
Today Jesus explains that following Him won't be rosy but will come with persecution, hatred and sometimes death for His true and authentic followers. Fr Christopher Magallanes faced strong persecution in his life. Arrested on his way to celebrate Mass along with Fr Caloca, he was neither accused nor tried. Led into the courtyard, they were shot to death by a firing squad. Fr Caloca's last words were, "For God we lived and for God we died." Twenty other martyrs are also commemorated today, all of whom were priests, except for three laymen who died for their parish priest. The tyrant dies and his rule is over, but the martyr dies and his rule begins! Jesus, I trust in you.

1ST READING: Acts 15:22-31
In those days: It seemed good to the apostles and the elders, with the whole Church, to choose men from among them and send them to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas. They sent Judas called Barsabbas, and Silas, leading men among the brethren, with the following letter: "The brethren, both the apostles and the elders, to the brethren who are of the Gentiles in Antioch and Syria and Cilicia, greeting. Since we have heard that some went out from us without our authorization and disturbed you, troubling your mind with what they said. So we all agreed to choose some men and send them to you with our dear friends Barnabas and Paul— men who have risked their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. We have therefore sent Judas and Silas, who themselves will tell you the same things by word of mouth. For it has seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us to lay upon you no greater burden than these necessary things: that you abstain from what has been sacrificed to idols and from blood and from what is strangled and from unchastity. If you keep yourselves from these, you will do well. Farewell." So when they were sent off, they went down to Antioch; and having gathered the congregation together, they delivered the letter. And when they read it, they rejoiced at the exhortation.
The Word of The Lord!
Responsorial Psalm Psalm 57
📢 R. I will praise you, Lord, among the peoples. Or ALLELUIA.
My heart is ready, O God; my heart is ready. I will sing, I will sing your praise. Awake, my soul! Awake, lyre and harp! I will awaken the dawn.
R. I will praise you, Lord, among the peoples. Or ALLELUIA.
I will praise you, Lord, among the peoples, among the nations sing psalms to you, for your mercy reaches to the heavens, and your truth to the skies. Be exalted, O God, above the heavens; may your glory shine on all the earth!
R. I will praise you, Lord, among the peoples. Or ALLELUIA.

R. ALLELUIA.
I have called you friends, says the Lord, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known to you.
R. ALLELUIA.
GOSPEL John 15:12-17
At that time: Jesus said to his disciples, "This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends if you do what I command you. No longer do I call you servants, for the servant does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, for all that I have heard from my Father I have made known to you. You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide; so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you. This I command you, to love one another."
The Gospel of The Lord!
Reflection:
Howard Hendricks says, "Two things will mostly influence where you will be ten years from now: the books you read, and the friends you make." By far the most important friend you can have is the Lord Jesus. Though Jesus is the disciples' Lord and teacher, He still calls them His friends. To be a friend of Christ, we must love one another just as He loved us. We must also obey His commandments. The friends of Jesus are chosen by Him to bear fruit that lasts, as they depend upon Him through prayer. The friends of Christ are called to make their lives living Bibles. "Preach the good news always. If necessary, use words." Jesus, I trust in you.

In those days: After there had been much debate, Peter rose and said to the apostles and the elders, "Brethren, you know that in the early days God chose you, that by my mouth the Gentiles should hear the word of the gospel and believe. And God, who knows the heart, bore witness to them, giving them the Holy Spirit just as he did to us; and he made no distinction between them and us, but cleansed their hearts by faith. Now therefore, why do you make trial of God by putting a yoke upon the neck of the disciples, which neither our fathers nor we have been able to bear? But we believe that we shall be saved through the grace of the Lord Jesus, just as they will." And all the assembly kept silence; and they listened to Barnabas and Paul as they related what signs and wonders God had done through them among the Gentiles. After they finished speaking, James replied, "Brethren, listen to me. Simeon has related how God first visited the Gentiles, to take out of them a people for his name. And with this the words of the prophets agree, as it is written, 'After this I will return, and I will rebuild the dwelling of David, which has fallen; I will rebuild its ruins, and I will set it up, that the rest of men may seek the Lord, and all the Gentiles who are called by my name, says the Lord, who has made these things known from of old. Therefore, I judge that we should not trouble those of the Gentiles who turn to God, but should write to them to abstain from the pollutions of idols and from unchastity and from what is strangled and from blood. From early generations, Moses has had in every city those who preach him, for he is read every sabbath in the synagogues."
The Word of The Lord!
Responsorial Psalm Psalm 96
📢 R. Tell among all the peoples the wonders of the Lord. Or ALLELUIA.
O sing a new song to the Lord; sing to the Lord, all the earth. O sing to the Lord; bless his name.
R. Tell among all the peoples the wonders of the Lord. Or ALLELUIA.
Proclaim his salvation day by day. Tell among the nations his glory, and his wonders among all the peoples.
*R. Tell among all the peoples the wonders of the Lord. Or ALLELUIA.*
Say to the nations, 'The Lord is king. The world he made firm in its place; he will judge the peoples in fairness.
*R. Tell among all the peoples the wonders of the Lord. Or ALLELUIA.*

ACCLAMATION: John 10:27
R. ALLELUIA.
My sheep hear my voice, says the Lord; and I know them, and they follow me.
R. ALLELUIA.
GOSPEL John 15:9-11
At that time: Jesus said to his disciples, "As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you; abide in my love. If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in his love. These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full."
The Gospel of The Lord!
Reflection:
Though we cannot fathom the depth of the Father's love for Jesus, yet we see this love explicitly expressed in the GOSPELs during Baptism and Transfiguration. Jesus today says He loves us just as the Father loves Him and He expresses it so plainly on Calvary. Jesus is therefore inviting us into a relationship of love between the Father and Himself. To receive this love, we must spend quality time with Jesus by praying every day. We must participate in the daily Eucharistic celebration and must also feed on the word of God by reading the scripture. "Ignorance of scripture is ignorance of Christ." Jesus, I trust in you.

we are more than conquerors through him"

God's Word
VIGIL/ PRAYER SESSION + SERMON

Main Text: Genesis 1:28 — "And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth."
---
I. SHORT SERMON: "TAKING BACK YOUR DOMINION" - 15 mins
1. Dominion Was God’s Original Plan
Man was not created to be a victim — you were created to rule.
- Genesis 1:26: "Let us make man in our image... and let them have dominion"
- Psalm 8:6: "Thou madest him to have dominion over the works of thy hands"

- Matthew 28:18: "All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth"
- Luke 10:19: Now He gives that power back to you: "I have given you authority... over all the power of the enemy"

- By the Word: Joshua 1:8 — This book of the law shall not depart... then thou shalt have good success
- By Faith: 1 John 5:4 — "This is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith"
- By the Name: Philippians 2:10 — At the name of Jesus every knee should bow
- By the Spirit: Romans 8:37 — "In all these things we are more than conquerors through him"
You don’t beg for dominion. You enforce it.

God's WordEASTER WEEK 5 TUESDAY
05-MAY-2026 Readings
1ST READING: Acts 14:19-28
In those days: Jews came [to Lystra) from Antioch and Iconium; and having persuaded the people, they stoned Paul and dragged him out of the city, supposing that he was dead. But when the disciples gathered about him, he rose and entered the city; and on the next day, he went on with Barnabas to Derbe. When they had preached the gospel to that city and had made many disciples, they returned to Lystra and to Iconium and to Antioch, strengthening the souls of the disciples, exhorting them to continue in the faith, and saying that through many tribulations we must enter the kingdom of God. And when they had appointed elders for them in every church, with prayer and fasting they committed them to the Lord in whom they believed. Then they passed through Pisidia and came to Pamphylia. And when they had spoken the word in Perga, they went down to Attalia; and from there they sailed to Antioch, where they had been commended to the grace of God for the work which they had fulfilled. And when they arrived, they gathered the church together and declared all that God had done with them, and how he had opened a door of faith to the Gentiles. And they remained no little time with the disciples.
The Word of The Lord!
Responsorial Psalm Psalm 145
📢 R. Your friends make known, O Lord, the glory of your reign. Or ALLELUIA.
All your works shall thank you, O Lord, and all your faithful ones bless you. They shall speak of the glory of your reign, and declare your mighty deeds.
R. Your friends make known, O Lord, the glory of your reign. Or ALLELUIA.
They shall make known your might to the children of men, and the glorious splendour of your reign. Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom; your rule endures for all generations.
*R. Your friends make known, O Lord, the glory of your reign. Or ALLELUIA.*
Let my mouth speak the praise of the Lord; let all flesh bless his holy name forever, for ages unending.
R. Your friends make known, O Lord, the glory of your reign. Or ALLELUIA.
The Word of The Lord!
ACCLAMATION: Luke 24:46.26
R. ALLELUIA.
Christ had to suffer and to rise from the dead, and so enter into his glory.
R. ALLELUIA.
GOSPEL John 14:27-31
At that time: Jesus said to his disciples, "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your hearts be troubled, neither let them be afraid. You heard me say to you, 'I go away, and I will come to you. If you loved me, you would have rejoiced, because I go to the Father; for the Father is greater than I. And now I have told you before it takes place, so that when it does take place, you may believe. I will no longer talk much with you, for the ruler of this world is coming. He has no power over me; but I do as the Father has commanded me, so that the world may know that I love the Father.
The Gospel of The Lord!
Reflection:
There's no greater gift for the anxious heart than the peace of God. This peace is not escapism, avoiding trouble, refusing to face things, or denying problems. This peace doesn't come through pleasure. "The flesh will make you hungry where it satisfies you most." It is the King of peace who assures us of security, covering, and protection even in the midst of storms. It is a peace that keeps our hearts at rest even in the midst of the troubles, persecutions, and problems of life. Today, Jesus assures us that He is with us. No matter how turbulent your life is presently, just put your hand into the hand of God. Jesus, I trust in you.
