Our Most Important Concern

DVRodriguez2026-08-28T10:38:13-04:00

Jesus Christ is the only Savior. He established the Church as necessary for salvation. We know of no means other than His sacraments to reach eternal beatitude. We must show the greatest reverence for the Holy Eucharist, as it is a principal way we respect and love God. Any time an individual, especially a Catholic, does not believe in Jesus Christ according to the truths of the Faith, it is a rejection of Christ. This is not a small matter. We must offer reparation for it. Do your best to be faithful son (daughter) of the Church. And do your best [...]

His Infinite Love For Us

DVRodriguez2026-08-25T17:24:57-04:00

All the most wondrous gifts of our holy religion (the Church, the Mass, the Sacraments, the Blessed Virgin Mary, et al.) are a marvelous manifestation of the infinite love of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. The Sacred Heart continues to beat with a love at once human and divine for us poor sinners - every single day! And how do we repay Him? Let us therefore make a greater effort at loving the Sacred Heart, at offering reparation for offenses against Him, and at imitating Him.

Believe the Deposit of Faith

DVRodriguez2026-08-08T07:09:15-04:00

Christ is the only Savior of men and all who come to God the Father must come through Him. He is the sole King of souls and societies. The deposit of the faith is “the truths taught by Jesus Christ for our salvation.” It was complete by the death of the last Apostle. The Church receives no new revelation. Rather, God calls her to guard, explain, defends and transmit the same deposit received. This is the mission of the Church. It is the mission of the popes and bishops. However, satan attacks souls by attacking the deposit of faith. Never forget, [...]

How Well Do You Prepare for Holy Communion

DVRodriguez2026-08-08T07:09:33-04:00

The Sacred Heart is the summary of our religion, of the whole mystery of redemption. In the feast of Corpus Christi the Church professes her true faith in Jesus Christ. Yet far too frequently we conform our faith in Christ to the life that we already live, a worldly life, even a sinful life. To receive Jesus in Holy Communion is the most important act we can perform. Do our actions show we believe this? What sacrifices do I make to receive Him worthily?

Our Lord Weeps for His Flock

DVRodriguez2026-07-30T10:09:20-04:00

The Holy City is to be destroyed by divine punishment. Our Lord weeps. We see His human nature. Our Lord is sorrowful over the state of His Church. Yet He has a great love for His people. In His good time He will save His Church. For our part, we should not get angry, lash out, or attack other Catholics. He has given us so much. Let us therefore be grateful and do what God wants us to do. Pray! …for conversion, that people will reject error, for unity in the Church, that His reign will be on earth.

Helping You Think According to God

DVRodriguez2026-07-22T16:04:03-04:00

Today we continue studying a profession of faith to help enlighten our souls in the face of modern errors regarding the Mass and Catholic worship. The liturgy is a ‘permanent school’ in which the Christian soul is formed. The Mass helps us judge according to eternity, to love what is holy, and to despise what is transient. The Mass leads the Christian to order his whole life to the sacrifice of Christ. It even shapes morals and inspires the arts and customs. Radical changes to Catholic worship have severely weakened our faith and are a cause of today’s grave crisis.

Enlighten Souls in the Face of Modern Errors

DVRodriguez2026-07-22T15:40:06-04:00

Jesus' love is infinite. He also brings us the truth. Never separate His love from His truth. The Priestly Society of St. Pius X recently published a profession of faith. It includes 154 numbered paragraphs delineating what we, as Catholics, profess and reject. Consider for example its confession regarding the Sacred Heart, Christ the King, Our Blessed Mother, and Holy Mother Church. I urge you to study this document. It will help you learn your faith well, especially in the face of errors now so prevalent among the baptized.

Three True Words to Live By

DVRodriguez2026-07-14T13:14:52-04:00

Reflect upon John 16:7, 14:8, and 14:2-3. Christ ascended that the Father and Son might send the Holy Ghost to animate the mystical Body of Christ, leading the Church to all truth and uniting her in charity. Christ promised not to leave us orphans, and keeps His promise in the Sacraments. He ascended that we might strive every day to reach Heaven and spend eternity with Him. Let us be supremely faithful to the Truth and to practicing charity.

When It All Seems Too Much

DVRodriguez2026-07-14T08:31:11-04:00

Cast all your cares upon the Lord; He will sustain you. We forget this so often because we see the evil in the world. We get anxious, overwhelmed, angry, and discouraged (all tricks of the devil). We try to push through but fail. Sometimes we hit rock bottom. God allows this to humble us, so we realize our weakness and how much we need Him. So that we run to Him, fleeing the worst of evils –one venial sin– and are prompted to do penance. When we acknowledge God is in charge of all things, then it doesn’t look so bad. [...]

Mary’s Queenship Honors the Blessed Trinity

DVRodriguez2026-07-14T07:30:44-04:00

Nothing in our holy religion more clearly reveals the great mystery of the Blessed Trinity than the Blessed Virgin Mary. She has a unique relation to each Divine Person, all Three crown her, and all creatures are subject to Mary because all are subject to Christ the King, her Son. By divine decree, Mary has been directly and intimately associated with the entire work of redemption. To deny or denigrate this association is an attack upon the Blessed Trinity. She made perfect use of all the graces God gave her. By imitating her, we glorify and honor God the Holy Ghost.
