13th Sunday after Pentecost 2024 The undying devotion of even a brute animal towards its master puts us to shame. How much should we love our Savior and how unwilling should we be to leave His side? Today we are reminded of our need for God’s help. The disease of sin that we carry is…
12th Sunday after Pentecost 2024 This Epistle shows how God has accommodated Himself to mankind. Saint Paul reminds us to practice the Spirit of the Law. Although there were holy men who followed the Old Law, it had no grace in itself. However, it constantly promised the coming of the New Law, the coming of…
Feast of Saints Peter & Paul 2024 This feast is considered so great that, since the earliest days of the church, it was given a vigil for preparation. Red vestments are used on this day to symbolize not only the blood of these two great martyrs, but more importantly the fire of their love. They…
Feast of The Sacred Heart 2024 This feast was created relatively recently in the history of the Church, yet it was foreshadowed even in the Old Testament. As God took the rib from Adam’s side while he slept to form his great love, Eve, so while Christ slept in death on the Cross the Church…
2nd Sunday after Pentecost 2024 Tonsure Ceremony With first tonsure one becomes a cleric. This ceremony has been part of the Church since the 5th century. Just as slaves were shorn to show their complete ownership by their master, so the cleric shows that he now belongs to Christ. The surplice is imposed to represent…

Conference given on 1st Friday May 2024 Although some traditional Catholics refuse to celebrate the feast of St. Joseph the Worker, because they believe it is Communist in origin, the fact is that it is an example of the Church’s Christianization of something contrary to the Faith. There are many examples of this throughout the…
Confirmation Sunday 2024 The youth of our day are in the greatest need of the sacrament of Confirmation.

The Gifts of the Holy Ghost…
Confirmation Saturday 2024 Confirmation marks a new outpouring of the graces of the Holy Ghost. At Baptism we are able to teach the Faith in our own name, but with Confirmation we are given a new strength and the ability to teach and defend the Faith in the name of the whole Church. In days…
Good Friday 2024 We do not have the Mass today because even though the Mass is the re-presentation of Our Lord’s death, it is also the reminder of His Resurrection. The Church avoids even the slightest hint of joy on this day. An infinite offense was offered to God and only an Infinite Being could…
