Plunge Into The Sacred Heart

June 18, 2017By

Feast Of The Sacred Heart 2017

Our Lord requested through St. Margaret Mary that this feast of the Sacred Heart be celebrated after the octave of Corpus Christi to make amends for irreverences to the Blessed Sacrament.  Christ further explained how He was offering His Heart as the proof of His great love to the world which was becoming cold, indifferent, uncaring, unfeeling and contemptuous toward God and His gifts.  We can repair for our failings with true devotion.

Blessed Be The Holy Eucharist

June 15, 2017By

Corpus Christi 2017

The feast of Corpus Christi celebrates the sacramental aspect of the Holy Eucharist while Holy Thursday concentrates on the sacrificial. The Church and priests exist for this central teaching of the faith which is known as transubstantiation.  St. Bonaventure warned centuries ago that without this civilization would return to its base origins and people would degenerate to behavior like beasts.  However, receiving Our Lord in this sacrament gives us the foretaste of heaven which is so necessary to go there eventually.

Don’t Be A Summer Soldier

June 11, 2017By

Trinity Sunday 2017

The teaching about the Blessed Trinity and Its Indwelling in the faithful is the hallmark of the Catholic Faith and necessary for salvation.  The realization of this Truth should inspire us to be true soldiers of Christ as confirmed Christians and exercise it by participating in the feast of Corpus Christi, for example.  The lukewarm imperil their own salvation by not becoming fervent.

The Visible Reign of the Holy Ghost

June 4, 2017By

Pentecost Sunday 2017

On Pentecost Sunday the Holy Ghost manifested Himself under the two visible signs of wind and fire.  The wind stirred the pilgrims who were in the city for the Jewish feastday and drove them to the Upper Room where they heard the Apostles speaking in all their languages of the wonderful works of God.  The Apostles were able to do this after the Holy Ghost had appeared to them in parted tongues of fire and rested upon each of them.  This visible theophany marked the beginning of the sanctification of the world which the Holy Ghost will accomplish until the end of time.

The Ascension Makes Us Happy

May 25, 2017By

Ascension Thursday 2017

We learn several things on this feastday.  The dogma that Christ returned to heaven on Ascension Thursday was revealed by the angels who told the apostles.  Among Our Lord’s last words were His instructions not to worry about the future because the Father in His Providence will take care of everything and to go forth and preach the Gospel.  Most importantly, today heaven became our home because Our Savior, the Head of the Mystical Body of which we are members, is there preparing a place for us.

Mother’s Day

May 14, 2017By

Fourth Sunday after Easter 2017

This Mass prepares us for the upcoming feasts of the Ascension and Pentecost when Our Lord returns to heaven and sends the Holy Ghost.  This day is also a secular holiday in which we honor our mothers.  Falling as it does during the month of May our thoughts naturally turn to our heavenly Mother and all that she has done for us.  A tangible sign of this comes under her title of “Queen of Peace” which was added to her litany and soon afterwards led to her apparitions at Fatima and the end of the first World War.

Christ Was Not A Grudge-Holder

May 5, 2017By

St. Pius V – 1st Friday April 2017

Christ’s first words to His Apostles on Easter night were Peace be to you.  By this He re-assured them that He had forgiven them for abandoning Him during His Passion and Death.  We must imitate Our Lord and not hold grudges.  Also, the Introit for the feast of St. Pius V begins “If you love Me, Simon Peter, feed My sheep”.  These words were spoken by Our Lord after Easter and we learn their exegesis and how they fit the life of this great pope.
