The Attacks on God’s Church

November 30, 2025By

Sermon On The
1st Sunday of Advent 2025
Evil has existed in the world from the very beginning and within the Church since the time of the Apostles.  Throughout the ages, the devil has attempted time and again to attack and destroy the true Church.  In recent times, the Church was infiltrated by communists and freemasons.  The abuses introduced by the Second Vatican Council were in direct defiance of Pope St. Pius V’s Quo Primum and the perennial teaching and practice of Catholics.  The unprecedented crisis we find ourselves in today is a clear demonstration of the fruits of this council.  We should thank God often for what he has given us in these times of persecution.  We should look forward to receiving the Son of God on Christmas Day as Our Lady and St. Joseph desired to see Him before He entered the world.

Follow Truth in Adversity

November 23, 2025By

Sermon On The
Last Sunday after Pentecost 2025
Today concludes the time after Pentecost and the liturgy warns us about the frightful circumstances which will accompany the end of time and the signs which prefigure it. Every man who ever lived, whether they were in Heaven or Hell will face the General Judgment. The just will receive their glorified bodies and be carried to Heaven, while God’s enemies will receive hideous bodies which reflect their evil. We must abandon ourselves to God’s Will and seek to please Him in all we do.

In the face of the virulent attacks against the True Faith, we must remain strong and stand against the enemies of Christ as St. Athanasius did, who resisted the heretics of his day.

The Sign in Which We Conquer

September 14, 2025By

Sermon From The Feast Of
The Exultation of the Holy Cross 2025
In the Old Testament the symbol of the cross was foreshadowed in the tree of the Garden of Eden, in Isaac carrying the wood to be used for his sacrifice, and in the brazen serpent lifted up on the beam to rescue the Israelites.  More importantly, this feast commemorates pivotal events in the age of salvation.  Emperor Constantine’s miraculous conquest, St. Helena’s discovery of the True Cross, and Emperor Heraclitus’ rescue of the Cross are all commemorated today.  The cross, once a symbol of hatred, has now become the greatest symbol of love.  We must not only pray for the strength to bear our crosses, but for the desire to embrace them.  Following the examples of St. Andrew and Fr. Miguel Pro, may we heroically take up our cross and follow Christ as they did before us.

Hail Mary, Full of Love

August 15, 2025By

Feast of the Assumption 2025
In the Epistle for today’s feast, the applied sense of Scripture is used to connect Judith’s conquest over the prince of the Hebrew’s enemies in the Old Testament to the Blessed Virgin Mary’s victory over the Prince of Darkness.  The passive word Assumption is used to express the direct action of the Trinity on Our Lady in bringing her, body and soul, into Heaven.  One can only imagine the great joy in Heaven at the entrance of its Queen.  In the Hail Mary we are meant to greet the Holy Virgin with fervor and love.  Divine Charity, which we possess in Sanctifying Grace, far surpasses the greatest and most noble of human love.  The intensity of this Divine Love in the Blessed Mother is unimaginable, and it transformed even her smallest works into actions warranting the greatest merit.  What our Savior desires most from us is that we love Him in return.

A Warning for Vocations

July 6, 2025By

4th Sunday after Pentecost 2025

In today’s Epistle, St Paul speaks of the curse placed on all creation due to the fall of Adam.  All creatures desire to be freed of this curse.  With great hope, we look forward to the day when our bodies will be glorified and our adoption as sons of God complete.

The initial call of St. Peter in the Gospel account for today teaches us valuable lessons about the pursuit of a vocation.  The devil will do everything in his power to prevent a man from becoming a priest.  He frequently tempts the soul to delay his vocation needlessly, to substitute a vocation with a less-perfect life, or to be paralyzed by a feeling of unworthiness.  These temptations, as well as other attacks from the devil, can be expected by all who consider offering their life to God, and it is only through prayer and confident reliance on Our Lord’s assistance that one can persevere towards such a lofty calling.

No Longer Servants But Friends

June 29, 2025By

Feast of Saints Peter & Paul 2025

Priestly Ordinations

During the ordination ceremony, it is as if Heaven is opening as our Divine Savior unites with the ordinands and fuses them to His priestly Nature.  From that moment, the new priests are able to offer the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, to renew all the divine mysteries of the Faith through the liturgy, to forgive sin, to govern, to teach, to baptize, to bring souls to Heaven.  The priest is called Father because he provides life to the people and spiritually nourishes them.  The Laity should look at the priest and see the likeness of Christ.  By the physical transformation of the soul through Holy Orders, for all eternity, the priest is now a relative – a brother – of Our Lord.

The Birthday of the Church

June 8, 2025By

Pentecost Sunday 2025
The Holy Ghost is often referred to as the “forgotten Person of the Trinity.”  However, without Him we would have no Church.  When Our Lord died on the Cross all the merits He won remained within Him, and it was only when He opened the gates of Heaven that all those merits could be shared with us.  All that He won is dispensed to us during the visible reign of the Holy Spirit.  Today the Church made its first physical appearance in the world.  The Apostles gathered with the Virgin Mary in the Upper Room, where the first Mass had been offered, and prayed for nine days in preparation for the coming of the Holy Ghost.  A miraculous wind drew crowds of thousands to the very first church.  The appearance of the tongues of fire expressed the consuming fire of God’s love.  The ultimate gift of the Holy Ghost is for each of us to be filled with the very love God has for Himself.

His Temporary Absence

May 29, 2025By

Ascension Thursday Evening 2025
The Church is filled with joy on this day, because of Our Lord’s glorious entry into Heaven and because our human nature, hypostatically united to the Son of God, now sits at the right hand of the Father.  However, despite the great joy, the Apostles surely felt some sadness at the departure of their Lord and Redeemer.  We feel the same way during those moments in our spiritual journey when we no longer receive consolations and Our Lord seems far from us.  It is only by our passage through these purifications that our love of God may be tried, purified, and perfected.  Today God calls us to our heavenly Home.

The Ever-Ascending Prayer

May 29, 2025By

Ascension Thursday Morning 2025
During these forty days following the Resurrection, Our Lord appeared to all his disciples.  After He gave them His command to preach to the world, He ascended into Heaven.  Throughout the Gospels, the cloud is the symbol of the Holy Ghost, and when the cloud took Our Lord out of their sight it was as if the Holy Ghost was embracing Him, welcoming Him home.  Our Lord with His human nature and all His wounds is even now sitting at the right hand of the Father, perpetually praying for us.  We read in the Postcommunion about these “visible mysteries.”  In the liturgy, “mystery” is a synonym for “sacrament.”  The virtue that we need most in this age of crisis is hope, because the devil is forever trying to discourage us.  Today is the feast of hope.

Pray In My Name

May 25, 2025By

5th Sunday after Easter 2025

Although Memorial Day is a secular holiday, every Catholic should remember those who courageously gave their lives in service of our country and pray for them on that day.

This Mass commands us to pray in the name of Our Lord, and we fulfill this command through the liturgy.  We should pay special attention to the prayers of today’s Mass.  The maniple was not originally a vestment of the priest.  In ancient times, so many priests needed a handkerchief during the liturgy, because they were moved to tears, that the handkerchief became an official vestment.  St. James the Less reminds us to be a doer of the word, not a hearer only.  He was the cousin of Our Lord, and he is chosen to teach us the truths of the Faith during Paschaltide.  We remember this month that the Blessed Mother is Queen of Heaven and Earth, let us treat her as such.
