Septuagesima Sunday 2024 These next three Sundays are for an examination of conscience, in which we search out those things in our soul which make us enemies of God. Today we begin with a view of creation and the fall of man. Adam and Eve were expelled from the Garden of Eden because they did…
3rd Sunday of Advent 2023 Gaudete Sunday – This is a day in which we take joy in our Catholic Faith, a day without anxiety or trouble of heart. We must make our petitions known to God, trusting that they will be answered in the best way possible. God gives us the grace to ask…
Second Sunday of Advent 2023 With great hope we are reminded of eternity during this season. All virtue builds on nature, and the same is true of the virtue of hope. Hope cannot exist without difficulty and tribulation. We hope in God, not despite our sufferings, but in light of our sufferings. The saints took…
First Sunday of Advent 2023 On this first day of the liturgical year, we begin with a view of the end of time. It is a warning for the enemies of Christ. A day is coming when God will judge the nations. This is a Gospel of hope. “Christ loves us too much not to…
Last Sunday after Pentecost 2023 In this Epistle we are encouraged when St. Paul tells us that he never stops praying for us. Yet we can still be lost if we do not desire to follow God’s will for us. The greatest proof of union with God’s will is joy in adversity. How much we…

All Souls Day 2023 The Mass of the dead is really the Mass of life. Virtually nobody prays for the dead, which is a great injustice. Although Purgatory is not formally denied, it is simply never mentioned. We must pray for the priests and religious who held fast to the true traditions of our Faith,…
20th Sunday after Pentecost 2023 The three principal parts of the Mass are the Offertory, the Consecration, and the Communion of the Priest. If we miss one of these parts, we have not assisted at Mass. We are united to the sacrifice and are offered up with Christ. The Mass is the purpose of creation,…
