14 What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit? 17 Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.
18 But someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without [a]your works, and I will show you my faith by [b]my works. 19 You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble! 20 But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is [c]dead? 21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? 22 Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made [d]perfect? 23 And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “Abraham believed God, and it was [e]accounted to him for righteousness.” And he was called the friend of God. 24 You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only.
25 Likewise, was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out another way?
26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.
Brother Eric Ministries is Faith; Brother Eric Chaplaincy is Work
Last night, I had the pleasure of diving into a long-awaited cinematic experience by renting the film “Conclave” on YouTube to enjoy with Reverend Marie. While it was $2.00 more than what I typically spend on movie nights, my excitement to see it after months of anticipation outweighed any hesitations. After checking local stores like Walmart for a physical copy, I decided that renting online was the best way to satisfy my curiosity.
As we settled in to watch, I was filled with enthusiasm, eager to see how the film would depict the conclave process. Having absorbed numerous trailers and online comments, I was optimistic about experiencing an engaging narrative filled with suspense and drama, even amid critical reviews. However, once the movie concluded, I found myself reflecting on its shortcomings.
For someone with a keen interest in the political dynamics and intricate negotiations that occur during the papal election, I was hoping for a film that would deliver high stakes and compelling character arcs. Unfortunately, “Conclave” did not quite capture the level of tension and intrigue I had anticipated. Instead of feeling like an exciting drama, it came across more like a documentary, lacking the depth that can turn historical events into riveting storytelling.
This experience led me to think about other representations of the papacy, such as the series “Borgia: Faith and Fear.” That show successfully portrayed the complex dynamics at play during Rodrigo de Borja’s rise to Pope Alexander VI, highlighting the drama and moral dilemmas involved in such a power struggle. It offered a nuanced exploration of ambition and manipulation, elements I found lacking in “Conclave.”
As someone who has closely followed the election of popes, having witnessed six elections and looking forward to my seventh in 2025, I think my perspective may have influenced my expectations. The impending election will be significant, marking the height of my awareness around these historical transitions, especially since I have been younger than many who participated in the 1958 conclave. This background deepens my interest in the inner workings of the Church and the various personalities involved.
Reflecting on “Conclave,” I see the potential it aimed to explore, but I wish it had delved deeper into the drama and complexities that accompany such pivotal moments in history. The stories surrounding papal elections are often filled with conflict and strategic maneuvering, and, to resonate with audiences, adaptations need to embrace this rich tapestry of intrigue.
In conclusion, while I genuinely wanted to enjoy “Conclave,” I walked away feeling that it missed an opportunity to convey the excitement and depth of the conclave experience fully. It’s essential for films depicting historical events to strike a balance between factual representation and engaging storytelling. I believe that with more focus on the dramatic elements inherent in these situations, future adaptations could provide a more gratifying exploration of the fascinating world of papal elections.
I look forward to seeing filmmakers take on this challenge, as there is a wealth of material just waiting to be brought to life with the nuance and drama it deserves.

Hello! My name is Andrew, and I’m your Eric Michel Ministries International podcast host.
We are incredibly blessed and encouraged to receive daily emails from our listeners. We want to share some of those with you to see the tremendous impact of Monotheism, Christian theology, philosophy and morality and the beautiful ways Christ works. Thank you for giving our ministry a chance to broadcast the Independent Christian Podcast worldwide!
In the news: The Archbishop and his spouse, the Right Reverend Marie, were vaccinated yesterday for the coronavirus.
Today’s topic: Dog Goes to Heaven?
One of our listeners emailed us and asked if his dog would go to heaven.
The Theology about the Noosphere.
We view our earth as being covered by a sphere named Noosphere, where the soul goes to the death of the human body and generates a new human body at birth.
We also learn that the soul is our conscience, or our thoughts.
Animals and plants communicate, so they have a “conscience” in their brains.
According to this statement, “YES,” your dog will be in heaven, our heaven, the Noosphere.
The sad part is you will not be with him, much less even see him in the same way as any other people in the Noosphere, because we will be only a thought.
You can always contact Michel of Notre Dame by email at ericmichelministries@gmail.com
On that note, we wish you good mental health and God Bless!

Eric Michel Ministries International. Presents this podcast
These days, we see on EWTN, the Global Roman Catholic Network, repeatedly in the United States, the topic of abortion.
People ask us what our view is at Eric Michel Ministries International on the topic of “abortion.”?
First, let’s see what the internet says about it:
The abortion from Wikipedia
Abortion is the ending of a pregnancy by the removal or expulsion of an embryo or fetus. An abortion that occurs without intervention is known as a miscarriage or “spontaneous abortion” and occurs in approximately 30% to 40% of pregnancies. When deliberate steps are taken to end a pregnancy, it is called an induced abortion, or less frequently, “induced miscarriage”. The unmodified word abortion generally refers to an induced abortion.
When correctly done, abortion is one of the safest procedures in medicine. Still, unsafe abortion is a significant cause of maternal death, especially in the developing world, while making safe abortion legal and accessible reduces maternal deaths. It is safer than childbirth, which has a 14 times higher risk of death in the United States.
Modern methods use medication or surgery for abortions. The drug mifepristone combined with prostaglandin appears to be as safe and effective as surgery during the first and second trimesters of pregnancy. The most common surgical technique involves dilating the cervix and using a suction device. Birth control, such as the pill or intrauterine devices, can be used immediately following abortion. When performed legally and safely on a woman who desires it, induced abortions do not increase the risk of long-term mental or physical problems. In contrast, unsafe abortions (those performed by unskilled individuals, with hazardous equipment, or in unsanitary facilities) cause 47,000 deaths and 5 million hospital admissions each year. The World Health Organization states that “access to legal, safe and comprehensive abortion care, including post-abortion care, is essential for attaining the highest possible level of sexual and reproductive health.”
Around 56 million abortions are performed each year in the world, with about 45% done unsafely. Abortion rates changed little between 2003 and 2008. They decreased for at least two decades as access to family planning and birth control increased. As of 2018, 37% of the world’s women had access to legal abortions without limits as to the reason. Countries that permit abortions have different limits on how late in pregnancy abortion is allowed. Abortion rates are similar between countries that ban abortion and countries that allow it.
Historically, abortions have been attempted using herbal medicines, sharp tools, forceful massage, or other traditional methods. Abortion laws and cultural or religious views on abortion are different around the world. In some areas, abortion is legal only in specific cases such as rape, problems with the fetus, poverty, risk to a woman’s health, or incest. There is debate over the moral, ethical, and legal issues of abortion. Those who oppose abortion often argue that an embryo or fetus is a human with a right to life. They may compare abortion to murder. Those who support the legality of abortion often hold that it is part of a woman’s right to make decisions about her body. Others favour legal and accessible abortion as a public health measure.
Since ancient times, abortions have been done using several methods, including herbal medicines, sharp tools, force, or other traditional methods.
Induced abortion has a long history. It can be traced back to civilizations as varied as China under Shennong (c. 2700 BCE), Ancient Egypt with its Ebers Papyrus (c. 1550 BCE), and the Roman Empire in the time of Juvenal (c. 200 CE).
Induced abortion has long been the source of considerable debate. Ethical, moral, philosophical, biological, religious and legal issues surrounding abortion are related to value systems. Opinions on abortion may be about fetal rights, governmental authority, and women’s rights.
In both public and private debate, arguments presented in favour of or against abortion access focus on either the moral permissibility of an induced abortion or the justification of laws permitting or restricting abortion. The World Medical Association Declaration on Therapeutic Abortion notes: “Circumstances bringing the interests of a mother into conflict with the interests of her unborn child create a dilemma and raise the question as to whether or not the pregnancy should be deliberately terminated.” Abortion debates, especially about abortion laws, are often spearheaded by groups advocating one of these two positions. Groups that favour more significant legal restrictions on abortion, including complete prohibition, most often describe themselves as “pro-life,” while groups against such legal rules describe themselves as “pro-choice.” Generally, the former position argues that a human fetus is a human person with a right to live, making abortion morally the same as murder. The latter part contends that a woman has certain reproductive rights, especially the right to decide whether to carry a pregnancy to term.
At Eric Michel Ministries International, we are Pro-Life with health matter exceptions.
It has so many ways to avoid pregnancy that if a woman gets pregnant, she wants. We agree with the position “that a human fetus is a human person with a right to live.”
And also agree to some abortions under the supervision of a medical doctor or a social worker.
Reasons for abortion:
First, in the case of rape, seeing the drama over and over each time the woman faces the child in person or thoughts.
Second, the mentally ill person, this person cannot provide for herself even less for others.
3rd economic situation, especially a woman on welfare, she or they as a couple cannot provide for themselves, let alone for another.
4th, a person who is a drug addict.
5th motherhood has women who cannot care for a child, and her parental sense is absent. It is psychological.
That is our view on abortion, but we have no say because the matter is entirely political. And we are not strong enough like the Roman Catholic Church to lobby with members of parliament and lawmakers.

Let’s pray, Holy Spirit, we welcome You. Holy Spirit, we know You are the Counsellor of Truth, our help in need, and the One who fills us with the Spirit of God. Holy Spirit, we pray to come into greater communion with You this very day.
Hello friends,
My name is Eric Michel, and I’ve been a bivocational pastor for 36 years. That happened not too long ago, on December 7.
I have a significant accent; I’m French from Quebec, Canada.
I’m a father and a grandfather. My spouse, Marie, and I now have six children, all of whom are middle-aged adults, and many grandchildren.
I have been a chaplain since 2010 and have been a member of the International Federation of Christian Chaplains, Inc. in Providence, Rhode Island, for over 12 years. I never had to preach or baptize someone, but I did celebrate weddings.
Chaplains are from different backgrounds; we are interdenominational. I have attended Baptist, Catholic, Methodist, United, and Pentecostal worship services.
I come from a time when 90% of the population attended Sunday worship; today, it is hard to find 10%, and mainly, they are all gray-haired. People didn’t stop believing; they just changed Jesus for the occult, Aliens, mermade and the Saskash.
My topic for today is the “Devil and the Ouija Board.”
During these past holidays, I was a certified demonologist, yes, a big word, demonologists like Ed and Lorraine Warren.
Today, the Ouija board is the biggest seller in toy stores and on Amazon.
It is a Yes Yes Board in English, translated from yes in French, oui and yes in German, Ja.
The Ouija board is not inherently bad; it is a communication tool, much like your cellular device. However, the danger lies in what you do with it. If you notice that the Ouija board has no call display, you do not know who is at the other end.
Another thing from the spirit that answers your call is that the devil is a big liar, so he will tell you what you want to hear. Today, the devil managed to have a new board named the “Holy Spirit Board,” with pictures of God, Angels, a Holy Spirit Dove, and even a “Good Bye Jesus.” That is the biggest lie ever; do you want to talk to Jesus? It is done through your heart, in church and, of course, with us online.
Don’t forget your readings in:
Deuteronomy 18
Deuteronomy 18:10–12 – “Let no one be found among you who . . . practices divination or sorcery, interprets omens, engages in witchcraft, or casts spells, or who is a medium or spiritist or who consults the dead. Anyone who does these things is detestable to the LORD.”
Leviticus 19:31 – “Do not turn to mediums or seek out spiritists, for they will defile you. I am the LORD your God.”
Isaiah 8:19 – “When men tell you to consult mediums and spiritists, who whisper and mutter, should not a people inquire of their God? Why consult the dead on behalf of the living?”
Galatians 5:19–20 – “The acts of the sinful nature are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery; idolatry and witchcraft. . . . As I did before, I warn you that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God.”
If you play this game, you’ll be deceived; I’ll let you reflect on it and make an informed choice. Thanks for watching

I just learned from the merchant that “Your package will be shipped via FedEx.” However, 2 hours ago, there was no shipping date, so it might be today or tomorrow; they say to expect it by August 2. Since Francis Blessing is gone to another wall, and I removed the cross, one of the Manse’s Chapel walls is empty (sad).
A pectoral cross or pectorale (from the Latin pectoralis, “of the chest”) is a cross that is worn on the chest, usually suspended from the neck by a cord or chain. In the Late Middle Ages, the pectoral cross came to be a special indicator of position worn by bishops. In the Roman Catholic Church, the wearing of a pectoral cross remains restricted to popes, cardinals, bishops and abbots. The modern pectoral cross is relatively large, and is different from the small crosses worn on necklaces by many Christians. Most pectoral crosses are made of precious metals (platinum, gold or silver) and some contain precious or semi-precious gems. Some contain a corpus like a crucifix while others use stylized designs and religious symbols.
In many Christian denominations, the pectoral cross symbolizes that the person wearing it is a member of the higher or senior clergy. While many Christians, both clergy and laity, wear crosses, the pectoral cross is distinguished by both its size (up to six inches across) and that it is worn in the center of the chest below the heart (as opposed to just below the collarbones).
Throughout our 46-year existence, we have undergone various name changes, including Reverend Eric Michel Ministry, Eric Michel Ministry and Chaplaincy, and in 2014, Eric Michel Ministries International. These changes were due to the evolution of our ministry and its expansion into ministries. The last change occurred in 2025, when the corporation changed from Unitarian to New Life Catholic.
Incense is an aromatic biotic material that releases fragrant smoke when burnt. The term is used for either the material or the aroma. Incense is used for religious worship.
A variety of materials have been used in making incense. Historically, there has been a preference for using locally available ingredients. For example, sage and cedar were used by the indigenous peoples of North America. Trading in incense materials comprised a significant part of commerce along the Silk Road and other trade routes, one notably called the Incense Route. Local knowledge and tools were highly influential on the style, but methods were also influenced by migrations of foreigners, such as clergy and physicians.
The combustible base of a direct burning incense mixture not only binds the fragrant material together but also allows the produced incense to burn with a self-sustained ember, which propagates slowly and evenly through an entire piece of incense with such regularity that it can be used to mark time. The base is chosen such that it does not produce a perceptible smell. Commercially, two types of incense base predominate:
Fuel and oxidizer mixtures: Charcoal or wood powder provides the fuel for combustion, while an oxidizer such as sodium nitrate or potassium nitrate sustains the burning of the incense. Fragrant materials are added to the base before shaping, as in the case of powdered incense materials, or after, as in the case of essential oils. The formula for charcoal-based incense is superficially similar to black powder, though it lacks the sulphur.
Natural plant-based binders: Gums such as gum arabic or gum tragacanth are used to bind the mixture together. Mucilaginous material, which can be derived from many botanical sources, is mixed with fragrant materials and water. The mucilage from the wet binding powder holds the fragrant material together while the cellulose in the powder combusts to form a stable ember when lit. The dry binding powder usually comprises about 10% of the dry weight in the finished incense. These include:
Makko (incense powder) is made from the bark of various trees in the genus Persea (such as Persea thunbergii)
Xiangnan pi (made from the bark of trees of the genus Phoebe, such as Phoebe nanmu or Persea zuihoensis.
Jigit: a resin-based binder used in India
Laha or Dar: bark-based powders used in Nepal, Tibet, and other East Asian countries.
Typical compositions burn at a temperature between 220 and 260 °C (428–500 °F).
Incense of the Eastern Orthodox Christian monastic tradition on Mount Athos is made by powdering frankincense or fir resin and mixing it with essential oils. Floral fragrances are the most common, but citrus, such as lemon, is not uncommon. The incense mixture is then rolled out into a slab approximately 1 centimetre (0.39 in) thick and left until the slab has firmed. It is then cut into small cubes, coated with clay powder to prevent adhesion, and allowed to harden and dry thoroughly. In Greece, this rolled incense resin is called ‘Moskolibano’, and generally comes in either a pink or green colour, denoting the fragrance, with pink being rose and green being jasmine.
Passages in the Bible inspire the use of incense in Christianity; its use in prayer and worship carries with it a Christian symbolism. Incense is used in Christian churches, including the Roman Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Assyrian Church of the East, Oriental Orthodox, Lutheran and Old Catholic denominations, as well as in some Methodist, Continental Reformed, Presbyterian, and Anglican churches. A thurible is used to hold the burning incense. Each thurible consists of a censer section, chains to hold and swing it, a perforated lid, and a crucible in which burning charcoal is placed. The incense is placed directly upon the charcoal, where it melts to produce a sweet-smelling smoke. This may be done several times during the religious service as the incense burns quite quickly. The thurible is swung by its chains to fan the charcoal, to produce copious smoke, and to distribute the smoke.
Religious use of incense is prevalent in many cultures and may have roots in the practical and aesthetic uses, considering that many of these religions have little else in common. One common motif is incense as a form of sacrificial offering to a deity. Such use was everyday in Judaic worship and remains in use, for example, in the Catholic, Orthodox, and Anglican churches.
Other cultures worldwide may burn herbs or incense for spiritual purposes, such as in smoking ceremonies, some forms of saining, or practices involving the use of incense censers. However, these cultures have their practices, as well as their own beliefs about these ritual actions and the ritual use of smoke.
Smudging, or other rites involving the burning of sacred herbs (e.g., white sage) or resins, is a ceremony. Use smoke for spiritual cleansing or blessing.
Our apartment is called a Manse, like the song “Dem Bones” by Sharon, Lois & Bram, or “L’arbre est dans ses feuilles by Zachary Richard ‧ 1980.
The Chalice is in the Tabernacle The Tabernacle is on the Altar The Altar in the Chapel The Chapel is in the Manse
The Altar painted pictures
The Manse Chapel was first created as a prayer corner for the Revd. Mary and I. As our volunteer staff grew, we expanded the chapel to occupy the entire living room. We added an Altar to what was once just a Shrine, then a prayer corner and a Chromebook for Zoom meetings. The chapel seats five comfortably but can hold up to twelve, not counting me.
As a Marian movement, the chapel is dedicated to the Holy Mary, and with our developing theology, the board of Elders decided to add two other Marys, so the name changed in 2025 to the Chapel of the Three Marys. Mary of Nazareth, Mary of Magdala and Mary Salome, to name them.
As mentioned in a previous post in 2025, chaplains do not have to purchase chasubles to celebrate the Eucharist. As guests in places we visit, such as senior residences, hospitals, and similar settings, they keep a few; we just have to borrow one for the mass time. But due to Revd. Mary, who is nailed to bed cause by her illness. It is mandatory for me to celebrate in our chapel since the end of January, when we are going through more modifications and furniture is added. We have a Vestry and a Sacristy that will be appearing soon. Because it is a small apartment, really, it is a wardrobe called a vestry and a dresser called a sacristy. The idea came from the real sacristy of the ex-St. Joseph church in Carillon, where, under a counter, there are drawers containing all the Holy Dishes and altar linens.
Can you come and pray with us at the Manse Chapel? The answer is yes and no; the reason is that Marie’s bedroom is set up like a hospital room, and medical staff and caregivers work here 7 days a week. We have to control access, so no, you cannot, but if you are a volunteer or someone who has already come to us for help and developed a chaplaincy relationship as a parishioner, well, the answer is yes, no problem.
WE ARE CONCENTRATING ON DEVOTION TO THE TWO HEARTS OF JESUS CHRIST, THE DIVINE MERCY AND HIS IMMACULATE MOTHER, AS OUR LADY OF ALL GRACE AND AS OUR LADY OF FATIMA.
The Manse
A clergy house is the residence, or former residence, of one or more priests or ministers of a given religion, serving as both a home and a base for the occupant’s ministry. Residences of this type can have a variety of names, such as Manse, parsonage, presbytery, rectory, or vicarage. (In French: Le presbytère est l’habitation du curé catholique ou du pasteur protestant.) Ce bâtiment est également appelé « maison curiale ».
A manse is a clergy house inhabited by, or formerly inhabited by, a minister, usually used in the context of Presbyterian, Methodist, Baptist and other Christian traditions. Ultimately derived from the Latin mansus, “dwelling”, from manere, “to remain”, by the 16th century, the term meant both a dwelling and, in ecclesiastical contexts, the amount of land needed to support a single family.
Our Manse of the Right Revd. Marie and I are in an apartment with three bedrooms, a kitchen, a dining room and a living room. Usually, the Chapel is in the living room, the main bedroom is our living room, and we use the other rooms for sleeping and an office. Due to Marie’s illness (Multiple Sclerosis (MS)), we had to adapt so that our living room is a mix of a living room and a Chapel. We needed space for a wheelchair, and now we also accommodate ambulance-paramedics who visit frequently throughout the year.
The Chapel consists of three parts: 1) the Altar, 2) the Shrine.3) Prayer Wall The Shrine or Sactuary is an all-glass shelving with mainly Holy Statues, pictures, rosaries, and souvenirs of our pilgrimages.
Until this year, I never elaborated on many of the artifacts at the Altar because, as a chaplain, I celebrate the Eucharist and other sacraments on location. Usually, I set up a table with tablecloths, candles, a Bible, and a communion set. As a caregiver to Marie, my external duties are limited to 26 hours per week, including household errands, medical visits, and car maintenance. So I needed to upgrade the Chapel’s Altar.
On Sunday, we have 6 people attending the service, but at other times, there are no parishioners. People think that I am still roaming from one place to another. Also, from time to time, you will see me worshiping in other churches, Catholic, of course, but also Anglican, Baptist, United Church or Wesleyan. That is part of the Chaplain’s role to be inter-denominational.
The Chapel walls contain icons, pictures, paintings and certifications. Lots of crucifixes, crosses, and the Last Suppers in metal, wood, plastic, and paper. Also, we have many icons of Our Lady of Grace, our dedicated patron saint.
