Conference given on 1st Friday May 2024 Although some traditional Catholics refuse to celebrate the feast of St. Joseph the Worker, because they believe it is Communist in origin, the fact is that it is an example of the Church’s Christianization of something contrary to the Faith. There are many examples of this throughout the…
Confirmation Sunday 2024 The youth of our day are in the greatest need of the sacrament of Confirmation. The Holy Ghost gives an outpouring of strength and a unique participation in the share of Our Lord’s passion and death in this sacrament. In His weakness we receive our strength. The Gifts of the Holy Ghost…
Confirmation Saturday 2024 Confirmation marks a new outpouring of the graces of the Holy Ghost. At Baptism we are able to teach the Faith in our own name, but with Confirmation we are given a new strength and the ability to teach and defend the Faith in the name of the whole Church. In days…
Easter Sunday Morning 2024 To prove His divinity, Our Lord truly rose from the dead – physically, materially, corporeally. The signs of His divinity are so abundant that it would be foolish to deny its truth, but we must still be given the gift of Faith to affirm it. Christ rose by His own power…
Easter Vigil 2024 Our time of training as catechumens and penitents is almost over. We begin this ceremony in the darkness of the tomb where the light of Christ will be restored. Without the Resurrection, our faith is in vain. This light is carried by the clergy and the people and is meant to be…
Good Friday 2024 We do not have the Mass today because even though the Mass is the re-presentation of Our Lord’s death, it is also the reminder of His Resurrection. The Church avoids even the slightest hint of joy on this day. An infinite offense was offered to God and only an Infinite Being could…
Holy Thursday 2024 These are the most sacred days of the liturgical year, because they make present the very act of our Redemption. The Holy Oils, from the Mass of the Chrism, receive their efficacy from the Holy Eucharist. Today is the birthday of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, which was offered in anticipation…
Passion Sunday 2024 Saint Patrick stood for the true God against the pagans in Ireland. He threw down the idols of the druids and established the Catholic Church in what is now known as the Island of Saints. Saint Cyril of Jerusalem fought against the Arian heresy and was persecuted for it. His bravery and…
Quinquagesima Sunday 2024 Abraham is our patron today. His willingness to sacrifice his only begotten son was a type of the Sacrifice of Jesus Christ. In today’s Gospel, the Apostles did not understand Our Lord’s words. To remove any doubts, Jesus performed the miracle of curing the blind man, demonstrating His divine power. We also…
Feast of the Purification 2024 The candle is one of the great sacramentals of the Church. It is like a sacrament in the sense that it is an outward sign, but unlike a sacrament, it does not give grace automatically. This day links Our Lord and the Blessed Mother so closely. Today we remember both…
