Guided by the Feasts of the Church

DVRodriguez2024-11-13T06:23:39-05:00

Too often we want to know or experience directly what Heaven is saying to us. (This leads some to give undeserved attention to unapproved private revelations.) Instead, put more faith in what, without any doubt, comes from God. He speaks to us through the Church's feasts. For example, in these past weeks God is speaking to us about the importance of Christ's Kingship, venerating the saints, aiding the poor souls, pondering the Four Last Things, and growing in faith, hope, and charity. It is so important that you make a greater effort to live based on the Faith, not on secular [...]

Fidelity to God’s Grace

DVRodriguez2024-11-11T07:58:05-05:00

Saintly mystics of the Church provide us with an account of Mary's birth, which we celebrate today. Our Lady was conceived without sin and with the ability to know and love God. Within St. Anne's womb, Mary was already faithfully corresponding to this first grace – and thus growing in grace. Let us be more aware of the graces God gives us and do our very best to correspond with them. Yet attachment to sin and to the world impedes our growth. We prefer what is easier and more comfortable. To counter this, grow in your devotion to Mary, especially Our [...]

The Saints Believe Christ is King

DVRodriguez2024-11-04T08:46:50-05:00

The saints truly believe – and live! – that Christ is King. We see this in their heartfelt prayer, which we should strive to adopt as own. Do not fall prey to the founding principles of modern democracies which reject, or set aside, Christ's Kingship. Catholics should not live in accordance with these errors, even if everyone else around us does. While this is not an issue we can force, we can be clear regarding the truth and plant the seeds of truth in others. You may not be able to change the trajectory of the nation (that may require a [...]

Depths of the Immaculate Heart

DVRodriguez2024-11-06T10:23:29-05:00

All of Our Lady's feasts manifest the immense, incomprehensible and incomparable love of the Immaculate Heart of Mary for God, and for us poor sinners. No where else does the adorable will of God reign so perfectly and so we can never adequately revere her Heart. Her tremendous love continues its role in heavenly meditation today. Her intercession is so powerful because her love is so great. In the depths of her heart are the mysteries of God, the Passion of her Son, and all He said and did. Those who truly love and honor Mary receive abundant gifts, favors and blessings [...]

Patronage of St Michael

DVRodriguez2024-11-04T08:48:23-05:00

St. Michael promotes and defends the glory of God, which includes the truth of God and what He has revealed. St. Michael is the guardian angel of the Holy Eucharist and of the Catholic Faith. He is the defender of the Church and of the Blessed Virgin Mary. When these are not upheld, his guardianship lessens. Catholic bulwarks are being dismantled and satan is wrecking havoc in the Church. Francis' latest statements, perhaps his worst on record, clearly contradict Our Lord. Priests are being persecuted by churchmen simply for defending the Church's doctrine and worship. Our love and devotion to St. [...]

Many Reject Christ’s Kingship

DVRodriguez2024-10-21T23:24:45-04:00

Jesus Christ is King. This is a great dogma of our faith. All things are created by Him and for Him. The State has an obligation towards Him and man's laws must be subject to His Law. The only way to have peace is for all nations to submit to Christ the King. Yet many so called Christians – even in the Church – reject His kingship. Our presidential candidates do not confess Christ's Kingship. Bishops are not defending this truth. Francis' recent statements are blasphemous and heretical against this doctrine. As small individuals we may not be able to change [...]

Christ the King, Mary the Queen

DVRodriguez2024-10-22T11:39:10-04:00

Christ is Lord of All. This truth is upheld by the reaching on the social and universal Kingship of Christ. Few Catholics proclaim this truth today, yet we must accept it to be saved for it is an infallible dogma. We also celebrate several feasts of Our Lady in these days. October 11 is her Divine Maternity. This is the principal mystery of her life from which flow all her privileges. On October 12 we celebrate her first apparition to St. James (a type of her miraculous pillar is found in Exodus). Our Lady wrought the great Miracle of the Sun [...]

Three Examples of the Incredible Power of the Rosary

DVRodriguez2024-10-07T22:21:33-04:00

In 1571, Pope St. Pius V called all Christendom to pray the Rosary. In response, Our Lady routed the superior Moslem forces at the naval Battle of Lepanto. At Hiroshima, She protected eight Jesuits priests, living the Message of Fatima, from the atomic bomb. In the 1960s, Brazil was saved from communism by the Rosary. The Blessed Mother told St. Dominic that the Rosary is a most powerful means to [1] dissipate heresy, [2] extinguish vice, [3] spread virtue, [4] implore God's mercy, and [5] obtain her protection. And in our time, God has granted the Rosary even more power, so [...]

Carry Your Cross Well

DVRodriguez2024-09-26T11:59:38-04:00

Jesus and Mary were united at the foot of the cross – in His passion and death. When carried well, the cross is the source, food, and proof of love. To truly love Jesus, one must first learn to suffer. Now the gifts of grace do increase as trials increase. It seems a new phase in Father's trials has begun on the Feast of Our Lady of Sorrows, which has been the date many trials have begun throughout his priesthood. As many of you know, Fr Rodríguez dedicated his priesthood to the Sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary at ordination. He [...]
