Pledge Your Loyalty

Holy Thursday 2019

St. Paul reminds us in the Epistle not to receive the Body of Christ unworthily.  It is a betrayal and a lie to use a sign of love as one of hatred the way Judas did with his kiss.  The Church interrupts her time of penance and sorrow to express her joy over the gifts of the Holy Eucharist, the Mass and sacred priesthood.  Christ thought these important enough to shed His Blood to give them to us.  We must love these precious treasures as much as possible and renew our love and dedication to them.

Remember The Bells Of Joy

Holy Thursday 2018
The bells of thanksgiving and joy are rung during the Gloria of this Mass which celebrates the birthday of the priesthood, the Mass, the Holy Eucharist and the Sacred Liturgy.  These gifts of love from the Sacred Heart of Jesus must be appreciated as the heavenly treasure and the pearl of great price.  We renew our oath of allegiance to promote, to defend and never to compromise what Our Lord gave us this night before He died.

Sharing Of His Blood

Feast Of The Precious Blood 2017

The feast of the Precious Blood was instituted by the saintly Pope Pius IX in gratitude for the restoration of Rome to the Holy See.  St. Peter called Our Lord’s Blood Precious in his epistle and It is so because of the hypostatic union which joins Christ’s humanity to His divinity.  The Sacrifice of the Mass as that on Calvary depends on the shedding of this Blood and our communion with It.  Our bodies are thereby sanctified as temples of God and should never be cremated.  The Precious Blood sustained the early church during centuries of persecution so successfully that by the time of Constantine there were 1800 dioceses.  Finally, there is a special message for priests and aspirants to the priesthood on the sanctifying power of the Holy Mass as seen in the life of St. Bernadino Realino whose holiness was attested by miracles from his own blood.

I Shall Reign Despite My Enemies

3rd Sunday after Pentecost 2017

There is a social dimension concerning devotion to the Sacred Heart which comes from Our Lord’s petition to King Louis XIV through St. Margaret Mary that he place the image of Christ’s Heart on his personal royal banner.  This sermon also explains the pursuing love of Our Savior through His mercy as described in the parables of the Lost Sheep, Lost Coin and Prodigal Son.

Blessed Be The Holy Eucharist

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.

Love

Holy Thursday 2017

Holy Thursday can be summed up in one word: Love.  This Divine-Human love in the Sacred Heart gave us the Holy Eucharist, the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and the Holy Priesthood today.  True Catholics love all these sacred things in return and follow Our Lord’s command to love one another.  Finally, we appreciate the cost of this love to Our Savior and what we do in reparation.

Rule Of Faith

2nd Sunday After Epiphany 2017

St. Paul instructs us in today’s epistle to do all by the Rule of Faith which is the guide that Tradition has over the written word of God.  Faith is paramount in life and essential to enter heaven.  The entire Liturgy was given by Our Lord and the miracle of changing water into wine pre-figured transubstantiation.

Power Of His Blood

Feast Of The Most Precious Blood 2016

In this sermon Father traces the devotions to this awesome Feast and makes an astounding revelation of the fact that just one drop of the Precious Blood would have been enough of a sacrifice to save the entire world.  He also points out that human life is carried in the blood and by giving up His Blood, Our Lord completes the Ultimate Sacrifice for all mankind.  He reminds us that the Blood of the Lamb spread on the doorposts of the Jews was enough to save them from the Avenging  Angel of the Old Testament and the Blood of Our Lord was first shed at the circumcision and many times in copious amounts during His Passion and Death.  We have very much for which to be thankful.

She Offers Her Son

Feast of the Purification 2016
After childbirth, the Hebrew women were considered ritually unclean because of the shedding of their blood.  The Blessed Mother was exempt from all the requirements of the law, because she had not shed blood in her virginal birth and because she had no need for a sin offering.  The newborn children were required to be presented to the temple to show that they belonged to God first and were only loaned to their natural parents for a time.  This presentation of Our Lord was a portent of that day on which the Virgin Mary would offer her Divine Son on Calvary to God the Father.  This feast was celebrated in the most ancient days of the Church in the Holy Land, and was used as a means of combating a pagan celebration of the time.  The use of the powerful sacramental of the candle is a testament to our glorious and bloodstained past, when the Mass was offered by candlelight in the catacombs.
