Immaculate Conception 2025 – Evening Mass
The Epistle for this Mass was chosen by the Church for this day and applied to the Blessed Virgin Mary because she was so perfectly united to the Son of God in His Incarnation.  This sublime mystery is often misunderstood, but the true doctrine refers to her miraculous preservation from original sin from the moment of conception in the womb of St. Anne.  The devil has waged war against the offspring of Our Lady, as described in the book of the Apocalypse.  She was given the privilege of being preserved from sin in preparation for her great vocation as Mother of God and her intimate cooperation in our redemption.

Her Unique Redemption

December 8, 2025By

Sermon From The Feast Of The
Immaculate Conception 2025
We wish to express our heartfelt gratitude to all those who have shown their loyalty, support, and love in the face of the attacks of the enemies of the Faith.

Pope Pius IX had said that declaring the dogma of the Immaculate Conception was one of the greatest moments of his life.  It was as if Our Lord Himself were speaking when this dogma was defined.  The Blessed Mother was redeemed in a more perfect way than the rest of mankind.  She was not liberated from sin but preserved from it.  Sanctifying grace is the greatest gift we have been given in this life, and the Virgin Mary possessed this gift from the first instant of her existence.  Though she was not under the curse of Adam and the punishment of death, she died in imitation of and in union with her Divine Son. The love of the Blessed Mother for her Son was sensitive and intense and we, who were given to her on Calvary, share in that love.

Our Historical Moment

December 7, 2025By

Second Sunday of Advent 2025
St. Paul is our Apostle and his words in this Epistle are directed to us.  We can only remain hopeful if we do not rely on ourselves.  St. John the Baptist knew that Our Lord was the Messias.  He only sent his followers to question Christ to prove that fact to them.

We are witnessing a historical time in the Church.  The faithful are facing a heavy-handed tyranny which seeks to exterminate the traditional beliefs and practices of our Faith.  We must prioritize God above everything else in our life in this historical moment.  No one can separate us from the love of Christ and His Holy Mother.

Requiem Æternam

November 3, 2025By

All Souls Day Evening 2025
Although this is not a Holy Day of Obligation, faithful Catholics flock to the churches today so they may help the holy souls in Purgatory, who cannot help themselves.  Purgatory is a creation of love.  One must be perfect to enter Heaven, so God in His mercy gives souls a way to burn out the roots of their vices so they may freely receive their eternal reward.  This may be our very last All Souls’ Day Mass before we die.  The words “Requiem æternam done eis Domine” were found on the tombs of Christians of the third century.  The Church has adopted those words for this Mass.  We must take up the standard of the Catholics of years past and fervently pray for the dead.

Our Purgatory Now

November 3, 2025By

All Souls Day 2025
The Commemoration of the Faithful Departed is not only for the benefit of the Church Suffering, but also for the benefit of all living Catholics.  Throughout the liturgy of this Mass, we are reminded of our own future judgment and how we too may be in need of the prayers of the living.  We must always remember that God is both infinitely merciful and infinitely just, and that He will demand an account, not only of our sins, but even of our time wasted.  Today is our reminder that we too must die one day, and that we must use the time God has allotted to us for the removal of sin, and the punishment due to it, from our souls.

Forgive Without Delay

November 2, 2025By

21st Sunday after Pentecost 2025
The servant in this Gospel owed more money than he could ever hope to repay.  We too are unable to pay our debts to Our Lord.  Through our own ability we cannot thank God and His Mother enough, nor can we make sufficient reparation for our sins.  We desire that God forgive us immediately, yet we hold a grudge against our neighbor.  We cannot forgive without God’s help.

The practice of mental prayer is essential for our salvation.  Vocal prayer and spiritual reading are great aids to the practice of mental prayer.  True prayer comes from both the mind and the heart.

The Church’s Glorious Crown

November 1, 2025By

All Saints Day 2025
By instituting this Holy Day of Obligation, Pope Urban IV wished to supply for any deficiencies in the honor offered to the saints throughout the year.  Christ the King, Who has made all the saints, is celebrated immediately before the Church Triumphant.  This beautiful Mass is like entering the courts of Heaven.  The Epistle for this Mass is frightening, but those who strive to follow God throughout their lives have nothing to fear.  The eight beatitudes are the qualities of those who truly love Our Lord.  We have them inscribed on the walls of the chapel along with many statues of the saints to inspire and encourage us.  On this day, we participate in the Communion of Saints by praying to our friends in Heaven.  Our struggles in this life only last a moment, and they will be replaced by the rewards of a joyful eternity.

Am I Of The Truth?

October 26, 2025By

Feast of Christ the King 2025
The words of today’s Epistle are solemn and frightening. Our Lord expects to be believed, followed, and obeyed and those who refuse to do so, whether they be in the Church or civil society, will be punished severely. Life is not about pleasures and possessions; it is about Heaven and its obtainment.

In our shrine, we have a relic of the True Cross and of the nail which pierced Our Lord’s flesh. It is especially fitting on this day to venerate these sacred items.

It was 100 years ago when this feast was established to combat secularism and to spread Christ’s dominion throughout the world. Our Lord told us that all power in Heaven and on Earth has been given to Him, and that we are commanded to preach His Gospel to every creature. We must not be like those cowardly Catholics who cooperate with the enemies of Christ, but we must fight against and condemn all those who oppose the reign of our King.

The Trinity’s Warning

October 19, 2025By

19th Sunday after Pentecost 2025

We should prepare ourselves spiritually to face Christ our King.  “Putting on the new man” refers to the state of Sanctifying Grace. If we live habitually in the state of grace, this is likely how we will die. In the Gospel for today, we see those who should be Our Lord’s closest friends stand in opposition to Him. We are all invited to the marriage feast, but through our free will we have the ability to reject that invitation. The refusal to wear the wedding garment is the rejection of Sanctifying Grace. We should ask ourselves how we may practice what we believe after we leave the chapel. Let us pray that God keeps us safe and ever faithful.

Help for Our Neighbor

October 12, 2025By

18th Sunday after Pentecost 2025
During the reign of Pope St. Callistus I, the Church suffered her first schism led by the antipope Hippolytus.  However, years later, when Hippolytus was imprisoned with the true Pope St. Pontian, successor to St. Callistus I, he renounced his sin and was reconciled with the Church.  Hippolytus died a martyr beside the true pope and was canonized a saint.

There is a clear parallel to be drawn between the cure we see take place in today’s Gospel and that of the cripple at the pool of Bethsaida.  The friends of the paralytic would stop at nothing to help their companion while the man by the pool remained without assistance for 38 years.  This shows us how important we are to our neighbor and how we must rely on one another to reach our final reward.
