The Enemy Will Fall

June 21, 2026By

4th Sunday after Pentecost 2026

All fatherhood on Earth is a reflection of the paternity of our unbegotten Father in Heaven, and all fatherhood receives its name from Him.  We are commanded to honor our fathers, both living and dead.  The calling of priests by the name “father” is not a violation of Our Lord’s command.  We refer to priests in this way because they give the more important life of Sanctifying Grace to souls in the sacrament of Baptism.

The story of Saints John and Paul, and how they have been maligned, from ancient to modern times, is an example of the danger and lasting effects of propaganda.

In the Divine Office, we read the story of David and Goliath.  St. Augustin explains that Goliath and his army represent the devil and his cohort, who seek to destroy the Church, while David, carrying his staff, is the symbol of Christ with His Cross.  The stone hurled at Goliath is the rock of the Church which causes the enemy to fall.  God watches over us at all times, provides for our every need, and our hope remains in Him.

Thy Will Be Done

June 14, 2026By

3rd Sunday After Pentecost 2026
St. Vitus, when he was just a child, was trained in the Catholic Faith by the servants of his household and St. Basil was always in the company of saints, among his family and friends.  They both exemplify the importance of surrounding ourselves and our children with good and holy examples to lead them to sanctity.

St. Paul said that he wishes that all would live a life of chastity.  We are all called to live chastely according to our state in life.  We must train our children to pray without ceasing, and to live with their minds and hearts in Heaven.  If we remain detached from worldly goods, docile to God’s Will, it becomes easier to remain always prayerful.  If we are forever humble and repentant, we will be the lamb carried home on Our Lord’s shoulders.

The Biblical Easter Celebration

April 12, 2026By

Low Sunday 2026
This week we are given the splendid examples of the saintly lives we should imitate in St. Hermenegild, Bl. Margaret of Castello, St. Justin Martyr, St. Benedict Joseph Labre, St. Magnus of Orkney, and St. Anicetus.  We should familiarize ourselves with the details of their lives.

The Apostles were so overjoyed to see Christ risen that they began to wonder if their own excitement was causing them to imagine His presence.  Our Lord asked for food, that He might prove His bodily resurrection.  For St. Mary Magdalen, it was enough to hear her Lord’s voice, but St. Thomas had to put His hand into Our Lord’s side in order to believe.

We reject the so-called “New Synodal Church,” along with its false Divine Mercy devotion.  The Divine Mercy image has no Sacred Heart and no wounds, and it was condemned by the pre-conciliar Church.  We Catholics celebrate the biblical account of what Christ did on this day.

Our Comforter and Our Guide

March 19, 2026By

Feast Of Saint Joseph 2026
The Child Jesus listened to St. Joseph, loved him, and called him “Father.”  This is what we are supposed to do.  We are commanded to go to St. Joseph.  We are at peace knowing that we are in his caring hands, and that he will keep us safe in times of temptation.  Although, St Joseph was not preserved from original sin, it is believed that he was sanctified in the womb, as St. John the Baptist, and lived a sinless life.  The experimental knowledge of Jesus Christ obtained in His life was taught to Him by St. Joseph.  The outstanding virtues of humility, poverty, and chastity possessed by this saint were beyond all reckoning.  We must never cease asking him to aid us in our duties.  How faithfully and unquestioningly he fulfilled the duties of his life.  He is our guide throughout our life and especially at the hour of our death.  Through his intercession, as Patron of the Dying, we may have a holy and happy death.

A Mystery Beyond All Understanding

March 15, 2026By

4th Sunday In Lent – Laetare Sunday 2026
St. Patrick was kidnapped as a boy and taken to Ireland.  After his miraculous escape, he studied in Europe and eventually became a priest and bishop.  He returned to Ireland to preach to its inhabitants and, by the grace of God, converted that nation.

Today Holy Mother the Church gives us a respite from the suffering of Lent so we might celebrate that we are so close to the glory of Easter.  This Gospel reminds us that everything was created for the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass, because the miracle recounted today foreshadows the Eucharistic Sacrifice.  The reverence shown to the bread and fishes which were multiplied and distributed point to the love and reverence we must give the Blessed Sacrament of the Altar.  We should pray to grow in our appreciation of this unfathomable gift.

In the Steps of Heroes

February 15, 2026By

Quinquagesima Sunday 2026
Reading the lives of the saints reminds us that we too can become saints. Lent is about to begin, and we should be looking for ways to pray, fast, and give. We should go to Mass more often, pray the Rosary daily, and practice spiritual reading to learn about the God we wish to love.
We have been under the guidance of St. Paul, and he has told us that we are called to conquer ourselves. The only thing that counts in the end is sanctifying grace and our sanctification. Charity is the motive for everything we do during this season. This week’s great patriarch is Abraham, the patriarch of faith, because coupled with our charity we must believe. If we live correctly this Lent, we will be able to truly mean what we say when renewing our baptismal vows this Easter.

My Grace Is Sufficient For Thee

February 8, 2026By

Quinquagesima Sunday 2026

Catholics should familiarize themselves with the lives of great saints like St. John of Matha, St. Cyril of Alexandria, St. Apollonia, St. Scholastica, and St. Valentine.
The readings from the Divine Office over the last week teach us about Original Sin, while this week’s focus on Actual Sin.  This Sunday we are called to make an examination of conscience.  In today’s Epistle St. Paul is not boasting; he is simply establishing his credentials as a true Apostle and follower of Christ.  He was only able to accomplish these deeds by God’s help.  Our Lord always gives us sufficient graces to resist temptations as well as graces to call back those who have already fallen into sin.

The Eternal Wedding Feast

January 18, 2026By

2nd Sunday after Epiphany 2026

St. Agnes had many suitors who asked for her hand in marriage, but she desired to remain a perpetual virgin.  The governor said that if she did not submit to marriage, they would forcefully take her virginity.  But she replied that God would protect her, and so He did.  Virginity is a virtue that is particularly pleasing to God.

This Gospel is a perfect example of the Virgin Mary fulfilling her role as Mediatrix of All Graces.  Those who would deny her this role are enemies of God.  The miracle of turning water into wine is a promise of the Mass which would be instituted, in which wine is turned into Christ’s Blood.  The entire universe revolves around the Mass.  Here on the altar we have Heaven renewed.  Heaven will be the eternal Mass and the eternal wedding feast.

Holy Anticipation

December 21, 2025By

Sermon on the 4th Sunday of Advent 2025
Although he is not commemorated when his feast falls on a Sunday, St. Thomas the Apostle is a great saint who should be remembered by all Catholics. Because of his doubt, we were all given a proof of the bodily Resurrection of Our Lord. To this day we repeat his beautiful words: “My Lord and my God!”
This day is all about sorrow for our sins and preparation of the coming of Christ. In the early years of the Church, the Christians would gather in the ancient St. Peter’s Basilica for a vigil Mass. We pray just as the early Catholics that we will remain as faithful as possible during these last days of preparation. After asking for forgiveness for our sins, with a contrite heart, we should not think of ourselves anymore but fix our attention on God alone.

The Spiritual Crusade

December 14, 2025By

3rd Sunday of Advent 2025
Gaudete Sunday – This day, which expresses a mitigated joy in the midst of suffering, has a more profound meaning for us now than ever before.  To suffer joyfully with Christ is truly what it means to be a Christian.  We have been given a wonderful example of this self-sacrificing love in Maria de la Luz who courageously stood against the enemies of the Church and willingly sacrificed her life for Our Lord.  In our current day, we must face persecution with the same steadfast spirit, and use every attack as a greater impetus to strive for sanctity.
