The Church is One

DVRodriguez2026-10-26T18:32:28-04:00

The holy catholic apostolic Church is one. It is not divided. Christ prayed for this unity and therefore the Church must have it as an indispensable quality that cannot be lost. Fundamentally, this unity is based upon the deposit of faith. The principle function of the bishop is to teach the same doctrine Christ entrusted to the Apostles, for this saves us. Paul urges Christians to be united in the same mind and judgment, avoiding schism and heresy. Everything in our faith depends on Christ crucified and this must be driven home today.

St Teresa of Avila and St Anthony Mary Claret

DVRodriguez2026-10-25T12:37:16-04:00

The Rosary is particularly effective in enabling us to receive the graces which come from God and a most excellent way by which we can cooperate with those graces - all through the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary. Consider the Rosary Miracles of Austria after WW II and the Miracle Bridge in Quebec (1879). Both St. Anthony Mary Claret and St. Teresa have much to teach us about prayer and the Rosary.

Count Your Trials as Joy

DVRodriguez2026-10-27T13:28:27-04:00

God will never allow you to be tempted beyond your capability – because He is good and faithful. During these trials, He offers graces that you may grow in faith, charity, prayer, etc. Know that a trial tests and purifies your faith. When you cooperate with His grace, His cross triumphs (exalts!) in your life. Our Lady loved and venerated the cross, that is, privations, humiliations, mortifications, and sufferings. Turn to Our Lady of Sorrows for the graces to have the same sentiments that are in her Immaculate Heart.

¿Cómo puede ser tu oración más eficaz?

DVRodriguez2026-10-20T20:36:40-04:00

En sus encíclicas sobre el Santo Rosario, León XIII nos enseña muchas verdades espirituales. La eficacia de las oraciones es proporcional a la disposición de quienes las rezan. La penitencia, una fe firme y activa, la perseverancia y el cumplimiento de los propios deberes, influyen en cómo se escuchan nuestras oraciones. El primer deber es profesar la verdadera fe católica. Hay que merecer el patrocino de la gran Madre de Dios, pero también es un don gratuito de la gracia; esto sigue siendo un misterio de la providencia de Dios.

Our Lady of Ransom

DVRodriguez2026-10-19T07:58:09-04:00

For centuries Barbary pirates harassed the coastline of Christendom and kidnapped Christians. Under Our Lady’s guidance, St. Peter Nolasco founded the order of Mercedarians with the purpose of ransoming captives. He was supported by St. Raymond Peñafort and King James I of Aragon. Today many are unable to freely practice the Catholic Faith. Catholics are still being persecuted, even killed. Many are enslaved to the wickedness of the world, the flesh, and the devil. Yet Our Lady continues to break the chains of slavery and ransom us. She is always ready to help us!

May the Adorable Will of God be Magnified Forever

DVRodriguez2026-10-19T07:36:48-04:00

The Rosary is a marvelous treasury of all the virtues man needs. By meditating on its mysteries, we renew our mind and put on the ‘New Man’ of whom St. Paul speaks. Yet we must pray for this grace of renewal. Stories of rosary miracles fill us with confidence: a serial killer was prevented from killing a young girl (1978), and Our Lady stopped tanks from bulldozing nuns and faithful in the Philippines(1986).

Gloriarnos en la Cruz de Cristo

DVRodriguez2026-10-17T22:15:49-04:00

Cada uno de nosotros pasa por pruebas y dificultades (cruces). Los santos nos llaman a tener un gran gozo al atravesar diversas pruebas. Estas son las formas en las que se pone a prueba nuestra fe y la principal manera en la que creceremos en la fe. El Corazón Inmaculado y Doloroso de María debe ser nuestro ejemplo e inspiración. No lo olvides nunca: Dios no permitirá que seas tentado más allá de lo que puedas soportar. Dios siempre te dará la gracia para superar cualquier prueba, pues Dios es fiel.

Ancient and 21st Century Rosary Miracles

DVRodriguez2026-10-10T14:48:53-04:00

A common daily way by which we receive God’s grace is praying the Rosary. The Rosary eliminates heresy, dissipates vice, spreads virtue, implores God’s mercy, and obtains Mary’s protection. One of reasons we don’t achieve more through the Rosary is because we don’t pray well enough. Every single one of us can pray the Rosary better. In 2008, Colombia averted war through the Rosary. In 2011, 33 Chilean miners attributed their rescue to it. Modern miracles and those of the past serve to strengthen our faith.

Mary’s Unique Role in Salvation

DVRodriguez2026-10-10T07:11:36-04:00

Everything about Mary reveals the greatness and goodness of God. We can’t fathom the incredible power which God has placed in her hands. Mary’s special cult (dulia) increases the honor given to God. A true Catholic restoration is not possible without her. Be familiar with the basics of our Catholic Faith in the Blessed Virgin Mary, including the dogmas of her Divine Maternity, Immaculate Conception, Perpetual Virginity, Assumption, Co-Redemptrix or Mediatrix.
