Fiestas Marianas de Septiembre

2025-10-08T10:55:08-04:00

A principios de septiembre, la liturgia nos presenta una serie de fiestas marianas (su nacimiento, su santo nombre, sus dolores). Es evidente que la Iglesia nos llama a ser más devotos de la Santísima Virgen María. Nuestra pequeña capilla está dedicada al corazón inmaculado y doloroso de María, por lo que debemos ser especialmente devotos a su corazón. En la imagen única que tenemos aquí, su pureza inmaculada está representada por rosas blancas y sus penas por siete lágrimas de cada ojo. Imploremos a Dios que haga nuestros corazones cada vez más semejantes al corazón de María.

Avarice of the Pharisees

2025-10-07T10:19:49-04:00

In his gospel, St Luke often focuses on the sicknesses that afflict men. The various physical ailments also represent spiritual illnesses. For example, a withered hand represents the inability to persevere in good works, leprosy stands for heresy, and dropsy (edema) for avarice. The pharisees were watching Our Lord, trying to trap him. These pharisees would violate the sabbath to save their beast, not out of compassion or fidelity to the law, but on account of their avarice. (In the question Jesus poses, the ox represents the Jews and the donkey the Gentiles.) Their avarice reflects their pride. Hence, Our Lord [...]

San Joaquín

2025-10-06T17:32:02-04:00

Una forma de ser más devoto a la Virgen María es practicar la devoción a sus padres: San Joaquín y Santa Ana. La gloria de San Joaquín en el cielo y su intercesión ante Dios son proporcionales a su mérito y dignidad por haber sido elegido como padre de la Madre de Dios y abuelo de Jesucristo. Ahora bien, la gracia con la que uno muere corresponde a la gloria que tendrá en el cielo por toda la eternidad. Por lo tanto, una gran ventaja que tienen los que viven en la tierra es que pueden crecer en la gracia de [...]

Why You Must Take Our Lady Into Your Home

2025-09-30T13:16:44-04:00

Every Christian land has shrines to Our Lady. Yet the focus in these shrines is on Her Son, not Mary. We see this same pattern in the Scriptures. Consider the Wedding at Cana, the Visitation, and Calvary. At His death, Jesus asked John to take Mary into his home. Also, God asked Joseph to take Mary into his home. Every disciple of Christ makes a place for Mary in his home. And if she comes to a home, we can be sure her Son will be with her. Our Lady takes every praise or prayer we direct to her, augments and [...]

More Spiritual Lessons from the Assumption

2025-09-30T07:30:21-04:00

The Mystery of Mary’s Assumption provides valuable lessons. It shows the centrality of Christ and how Mary is the path to Christ. Since Our Lady shared in Jesus’ sufferings in a completely unique way, so she too shares in His glory in a completely unique way. Yet there is great glory for ALL who carry their cross faithfully. Imitating Our Lady, we are to persevere in God’s grace and keep our focus always on Heaven. May this mystery also inspire us to seek God’s will above our own in all things, especially as regards sickness and death. Our Lady willingly denied [...]

The Cross: Means of Suffering and Life

2025-10-02T09:25:05-04:00

The True Cross was first found by St. Helena. Centuries later, the Persians stole it. The Christian Emperor, Heraclius, fasted and prayed, then conquered the Persians and recovered the Cross. He returned it to Jerusalem. Yet as he approached Calvary, the Cross grew heavier and he could no longer move forward. Only by imitating Our Lord’s humility could he proceed. Our Lord has tailor made crosses for each of us and they are rarely what we choose. We too can only advance if we follow Christ’s example, embracing our crosses. We do not like suffering; it goes against our nature. So [...]

Our Lady of Perpetual Help

2025-10-02T09:23:04-04:00

Tradition holds that four famous portraits of the Virgin and Child were painted by St. Luke the Evangelist. One of these is the icon of Our Lady of Perpetual Help, located today in the Church of St. Alphonsus in Rome. The order St. Alphonsus founded, the Redemptorists, have done much to promote this devotion after it was already greatly venerated in the East. St. Luke painted it on a table top crafted by Our Lord. The image was blessed by Our Lady, and she promised: “My grace will accompany it.” In this icon, Mary directs us to her Son. The Child [...]

Smoke of satan infiltrating via his synagogue

2025-09-08T12:43:36-04:00

This long episode recaps many points raised earlier and sets up the conclusion to this HN series. The smoke of satan has entered the Church via his synagogue. The Jews, in their turn, have used freemasonry, with the fabricated holocaust narrative as weapon to becloud the thinking of many. Basta!

The Prayer of St. Anne

2025-09-08T12:26:58-04:00

“By their fruits you shall know them.” Let us apply our Lord’s words to St. Anne. She is Our Lord's grandmother and Our Lady's mother. St. Anne is a patroness for many, although her intercession is particularly focused on the family. She excelled in charity for the poor and love of God. She fervently prayed for a husband who would help her live according to the divine law. She and St. Joachim bore very heavy crosses with faith and humility. In fact, her deeds and prayers and deeds serve as a powerful example and inspiration. May we each grow in our [...]

The Pharisee and the Publican

2025-09-08T12:25:28-04:00

More people go to hell for their ‘good qualities’ than their weaknesses because they rely on themselves and forget God. 'Perfection' is the enemy of the good. And mercy is removing an evil by giving a good. The pharisee followed the law and did good. Yet he did not thank God, or ask anything of God, content in his pride and self-righteousness. That is why he judges others and considers himself above them. The publican, however, has humility. Humility is true knowledge of self. It is a foundational virtue, necessary to acquire all the others. Humility always stands in the truth. [...]
