"One of the greatest means of salvation, and one of the surest signs of predestination, is, unquestionably, the devotion to the Most Blessed Virgin. All the holy doctors of the Church are unanimous in saying with St. Alphonsus of Liguori: "A devout … [Más]

Thank you Barbara! I wish I could say that I composed this wonderful poem, but that credit belongs to one Mr Silas Mitchell, although that is my voice reciting the poem (pardon my South-Boston accent). I do hope to continue working on more videos as time permits.

Compiled from the writings of Fr Francis Xavier Lasance as a means of reflection and exciting sorrow for one's past sins.

An ancient hymn that is still sung in the morning at the canonical hour of Prime in certain traditional religious orders. Performed by the Daughters of Mary, Mother of our Savior, in Round Top, NY.

Prayer composed by Pope Pius XII

Such a profound difference! Music that is suitable for Mass should, as you mention, be solemn and dignified, as befits the sacred mysteries, and not something merely conventional or secular, with a catchy tune. The Gregorian Chant you play seems to raise the mind to a meditative posture that aids in reflecting on the words. The music is unpretentious, serving almost like a back current that calms, rather than excites the listener, inviting a more mystical understanding of what is being chanted. … [Más]

Sublimely beautiful!!

Absolutely amazing!!

Like you Br Ross, I have never liked exclusiveness, it reminds me too much of the way the Pharisees shunned the Samaritans, and everyone else for that matter that did not measure up to their standards. Our Blessed Lord on the other hand did not contrain any limits on his Ministry or even on his miracles, the only time I am aware of that Christ refused to discourse with anyone, was when he was brought before King Herod, and then it seems clear that he already knew the disposition of the man's … [Más]

Thank you very kindly Br Ross!
I think as you mentioned, I try to gather up God's gifts, wheresoever they may be scattered.
In response to Woody437, I will say that although I am not afiliated with the St Pius V group directly, it is my understanding that they perceive a contradiction in the teachings of the Popes prior to, and post Vatican II.
The rationale of rejecting current infallable Papal teachings, therefore, would be because they undermine past infallable Papal teachings. So in essense … [Más]

Very sobering! There should be more sermons today on the topic of hell, it might give people pause to reflect on how they are living their lives.
The last remark about hell being a mercy of God for those who hate Him is very interesting - and I love the example he uses to illustrate this point.
I used to imagine that perhaps Heaven was filled with a brilliant and intense light that was excruciatingly painful for those souls who died in the darkness of sin (like the hypersensitivity to light … [Más]
