The Battle For Our Youth

13th Sunday After Pentecost 2021
This Mass pleads that God will not forsake us, His poor lambs, and He answers that prayer saying “I will not leave you orphans” and sending us the Bread from heaven which contains all sweetness within It.  St. Paul warns against those who would preach a false Gospel  and he directs his converts to resist them.  Our Lord teaches the necessity of thanksgiving through the story of the ten lepers.  Today is also the feast of the Immaculate Heart of Mary and the special devotion for this month.  Finally, a reminder to the young that they need not wait until they grow up to know what God wants them to do right now.  Even as young people their importance is seen by the efforts of the evil one to destroy them.  With God’s grace they will triumph and will become great saints.

Dormition Of Mary

Assumption Of The Blessed Virgin 2021
Pope Pius XII during of the Holy Year of 1950 proclaimed the dogma that the Blessed Mother at the end of Her earthly life was taken body and soul into Heaven.  This overdue definition was not a new revelation but something given to the Church through the Apostles.  Dating from those days is an apocryphal account which describes in detail what happened at this momentous event of Our Lady’s Assumption.  Present day archaeology has unearthed the tomb used for Mary’s brief “sleep” before Her glorious entrance into Heaven.  There are many reasons for the bestowal of this honor but this is a touching one: how could our Heavenly Mother care for us, Her children, without having Her heart with Her to do so?  Do not hesitate to approach such a Mother, even to ask for miracles.

You Know That I Love You

Visitation Of The Blessed Virgin Mary 2021
The Visitation of the Blessed Virgin Mary to her cousin, St. Elizabeth, three days after the Annunciation, resulted in the sanctification of St. John the Baptist in the womb of his mother.  This was made known by the leaping for joy that St. Elizabeth felt in her womb.  Pope Pius IX raised this feast to a higher rank because the city of Rome was freed from the Freemasons on this day.  Today is also the feast of Saints Processus and Martinian who were the last jailers of Saints Peter and Paul.  The Modernists hate this feast because it signals the final victory of the Church over the forces of evil.  This week was the feast of Saints Peter and Paul also and Our Lord had St. Peter repair for his three denials by three protestations of love.  St. Peter proved his love by the shedding of his own blood which is necessary for any true sacrifice.  An expanded view of the Church inspired by symbols found in the Bible inspires all to fidelity and love of Christ.

Fraternal Charity

5th Sunday After Pentecost 2021
We just celebrated the feast of St. John the Baptist and this week we have the beautiful feasts of Saints Peter and Paul, the Precious Blood and the Visitation.  Today is also the day in honor of our Mother of Perpetual Help.  In today’s Mass St. Peter is commanding us to practice charity towards one another.  We should not let unjust anger fester in us and we should not hesitate to approach humbly our wronged brethren and reconcile with them.  Our Lord warns that this must be done before worshipping Him at the altar.  Love of our neighbor should progress so that we practice patience towards all even considering their imperfections.  We must learn to listen to others and not try to improve on their stories.

Revel In Divine Love

Feast Of The Sacred Heart of Jesus 2021
The beautiful Epistle for this Mass gives an insight into the love of God found in the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The supernatural knowledge coming to us through this Heart changes our lives and makes us feel the ardor of divine charity.  Our Lord revealed many of His secrets to St. Margaret Mary and his messages through her are meant to assure us of His tender loving care in the face of the coldness of the world around us.  He told her that this revelation was the very last gift of His to a fallen world.  Despite the wounds received, even from consecrated souls, Christ promises that His love will triumph.

Start Living Heaven Now

Trinity Sunday 2021
God has endowed us with an intellect that enables us to see the world around us and reason to its Creator.  However, we could never know about the inner life of the Blessed Trinity except that He revealed this to us by His Son, Our Lord Jesus Christ.  Before the Annunciation we were given indications of this absolutely supernatural mystery but not the clear teaching as the Second Person gave us.  Our Lord commanded the preaching of this truth and baptizing in the name of the Trinity just before His Ascension.  St. Thomas Aquinas wrote that God has left us many signs of the Trinity in our very nature and everything around us.  Our prayers and the liturgy express the Holy Trinity often.  The eternal Trinitarian life is ours when in the state of grace and is realized perfectly in heaven.

Pentecost Law and Language

Pentecost Sunday 2021
This feast is known as Red Easter because catechumens are baptized now who were unable to do so earlier.  The Blessed Mother and the Apostles were in Jerusalem awaiting the coming of the Holy Ghost because Our Lord commanded that.  The Jews from places near and far were there to celebrate the promulgation of the old law to Moses.  The Holy Ghost brought the new law of love.  The special vestments for this Mass teach the doctrines contained in the liturgy.  An immediate result from the coming of the Holy Ghost was the miracle of the preaching of the Apostles being understood by all.  This continues today for us by the use of the Latin language at Holy Mass.

Pillars Of The Apostolate

Sunday After The Ascension 2021
This Mass joins the glory of the Ascension with the anticipation of the coming of the Holy Ghost on Pentecost.  The pillars of the apostolate which began on the birthday of the Church are prayer, humility and charity.  With Our Lady and the apostles we must learn to pray during this week’s novena.  We must always be aware of our dependence and thereby be truly humble.  Finally, we must imitate the early Christians who converted the pagans by their charity during the plague in the third century.

Ticket To Heaven

The dogma of the Faith that teaches that Our Lord ascended into heaven today was revealed to the apostles by the two angels as described in St. Luke’s Acts of the Apostles.  On their return to Jerusalem they remained there as instructed to await the coming of the Holy Ghost.  They gathered around the Blessed Mother in prayer and we imitate this first novena with our own starting this Friday.  The Ascension is the third critical element to our spiritual life.  Our Lord’s Death, Resurrection and Ascension are all essential in the plan of redemption.  We must die with Christ so we can rise to life and go to heaven.  The Ascension strengthens our faith and hope because our head is in heaven and we as members of His Mystical Body will be there one day.

Faith Without Works Is Dead

This Thursday is the Ascension and then we begin the novena to the Holy Ghost.  We also have several important saints this week.  St. James has been a prominent apostle during Paschal time through his epistle and today he teaches that our love of God and neighbor is shown by the practice of good works.  The Gospel is another instruction to the apostles in preparation for Our Lord’s departure and His sending of the Holy Ghost.  Today is also Mother’s Day and a time for us to honor our own mothers and especially our heavenly mother, the Blessed Virgin Mary.
