2nd Sunday in Lent 2024 St. Paul calls us to make “even greater progress,” but in order to do so, we must begin attacking our habits of venial sin. Mortal sins kill the soul, but venial sins are the great obstacle to sanctification. These lesser sins can easily be overlooked if we are not on…
1st Sunday in Lent 2024 We are particularly the objects of temptation during this season in which God is calling us to sanctity. During the temptation of Christ in the desert, Our Lord was not drawn to the evil as we are. St. Margaret of Cortona after discovering her lover’s body, made a complete conversion…
Ash Wednesday Evening 2024 Our heart should remain forever in the chapel with Our Lord. Prayer, fasting, and almsgiving are the great practices of Lent. The words that were spoken by God to Adam and Eve after the Fall are repeated for us today with the distribution of blessed ashes. We are reminded of our…
Sexagesima Sunday 2024 St. Gregory tells us that this Gospel needs no explanation, because Our Lord explained it Himself. We must ask ourselves, are we the “good ground” or are we the “bad ground”? It is a dogma of our Faith that everyone, without discrimination, is given the chance to be saved. If we are…
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…
Sunday within the Christmas Octave 2023 No longer are we slaves of the law, no longer are we separated from God. God has made us His friends. He loves every creature He has created but He is forced, so to speak, to hate the sinner by the sinner’s own choice. God’s irrational creatures fulfill His…
24th Sunday after Pentecost 2023 We should make a study of the saints for this coming week, each one of which gives an invaluable example to motivate our spiritual lives. Today is about charity. Nothing matters if we lack this great virtue. We must love our neighbors because God loves them. This was the example…
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,…
All Saints Day Evening 2023 Today we celebrate one of the marks of the true Church – her holiness. The almost innumerable saints in Heaven are the result of the redemption Christ won on the cross. Today we especially celebrate the unknown saints. If we wish to change the course of history, we must be…
Christ The King 2023 Salvation is all that matters. It is necessary that every person and every government should be Catholic. Today the Church authorities tell us that we must not make converts. This is cruelty because charity demands that we help our neighbor. Christ said, “I am the way, and the truth, and the…
