Low Sunday 2024 Today is called Low Sunday because it is small in comparison to the great feast of Easter. St. Thomas’ doubt has made it easier for us to believe, because the proofs of the Resurrection that Christ offered help strengthen our faith. Now that we have put to death the old man, we…
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…
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…
Laetare Sunday 2024 We celebrate the midpoint of the season of Lent by looking forward to the glory to come. The way we pray is the way we believe, which is why Catholic worship has been so attacked by the enemy. A golden rose would be blessed and anointed on this day by the pope…
3rd Sunday in Lent 2024 As children imitate their parents, so must we imitate God. When St. Paul in this Epistle says, “how unbecoming of saints,” he is not referring to canonized saints, but all Catholics. We are all called to sanctity. We must battle the temptations about which St. Paul speaks by the Rosary,…
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…
Ash Wednesday 2024 The Church reminds us of the fate that awaits all men. We are mortal and destined to return to dust. The sacramental of blessed ashes reminds us of our mortality and also the transient nature of worldly glory. From the triumphant Roman generals to the Byzantine emperors, a Memento Mori has been…
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…
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 after Epiphany 2024 St. Paul teaches us to be at peace with all men when it is possible. Of course, there are times when peace is not possible, but for a good Catholic war is only for the sake of restoring the peace once again. A person who is vengeful in his anger…
