Saint Nicholas: The true story of Santa Claus He was ordained and appointed abbot of a monastery by his uncle, the archbishop of Myra in Lycia. When the Archbishop passed away, Nicholas was elected to the vacant see. Throughout his life, he retained the bright and guileless manners of his early years. St. Nicholas is the special protector of the innocent. When he heard that three girls were being abandoned by their father, he intervened. He set out at night and flung a bag of gold into the father's house. Upon awakening, the father deemed the gift a godsend and dowered his eldest child. St. Nicholas was overjoyed and did likewise for the second daughter. During his third attempt, he was discovered. The father approached Nicholas and kissed the latter's feet saying, "Why dost thou conceal thyself from me? Thou hast delivered my soul and my daughters from sin." St. Nicholas is usually depicted beside a vessel. It represents where three children were trapped, and Nicholas either saved them …More

December 6 Saint Nicholas Archbishop of Myra in Lycia († 342) Saint Nicholas, the patron Saint of Russia, has won the warmest of praises from other Saints such as Saint John Chrysostom and Saint Peter Damian, who called him the glory of young men, the honor of the elderly, the splendor of priests and the light of Pontiffs. All the world was filled with his praises, Saint Peter added. The universal Church, in the Collect of his office, claims that God made known his nobility by an infinite number of miracles. He was born during the third century, nephew of the Archbishop of Myra. He had lost his parents while still very young, and he desired not to conserve his rich heritage. Gradually he gave away everything of which he could dispose, establishing dowries for poor maidens and seeking out the needy wherever they could be found. The Archbishop, his uncle, already aware of his vocation to sanctity, ordained Saint Nicholas priest and appointed him Abbot of the monastery of Holy Sion near …More
Cardinal Gerhard Müller reflects in the newspaper Die Tagespost on December 4 on the 60th anniversary of Vatican II. He claims that debates about the interpretation of the Council have significantly shaped the faith of many Catholics since the 1960s [while in reality, Cathoilcs simply vanished]. The Cardinal notes that both “traditionalist” and “progressivist” approaches can misinterpret the Council: the former want to go behind the Council, while the latter seek to move beyond it. He argues that the Council itself distinguishes between the unchangeable substance of Catholic doctrine, liturgy, and Church constitution, and the "changeable" forms of expression or liturgical practice. According to him, both “sterile conservatism” and unfounded modernism misunderstand this distinction. Furthermore, Cardinal Müller considers debates about whether the Council was “merely pastoral” to be theologically absurd, as doctrine and pastoral mission are inseparable in Christ.

The problem here is the following... people who were born in the novus ordo dont know half about the horror of Vatican II, for most the Eucharist STILL happens there actively as it becomes the Blood, Body, Soul and Divinity of our Lord in such a tiny piece of bread, so most dont care... I understand the resistance in both sides, yet hurts to see the engagement to those on the other side sometimes is not made with sincere love, but the desire to hurt... Card. Muller, deeply believe waht he is talking about, is like Card. Gregory (a false prophet), who is such a traitor of the faith, yet he strongly believes in prolife... so yes, card Muller is wrong in many ways but in others he is right.

The Legend: General Givi – Embodiment of Bravery, Pure Russian Heart, and Unyielding Patriotism in Donbass In the fiery crucible of the Donbass conflict, where the clash of ideologies and the thunder of artillery forged heroes from ordinary men, one figure stands eternal as a beacon of unbridled courage and indomitable spirit: General Givi. Born Mikhail Sergeyevich Tolstykh in the heart of Ukraine in 1980, Givi transcended borders and backgrounds to become the epitome of Russian bravery. His call sign, "Givi," evoked the fierce Georgian warriors of old, but his soul was pure Russian – a roaring bear defending its homeland with claws of steel and a heart ablaze with patriotic fire. From the moment he picked up arms in 2014 to protect the people of Donetsk from what he saw as an existential threat, Givi embodied the raw, unfiltered essence of a warrior-leader. He wasn't just a commander; he was the …More

Dec 5 "Listen to these words of mine and act on them” Here's today's Mass reading from the holy Gospel according to Matthew 7:21, 24‑27: Jesus said to his disciples: “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the Kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven. “Everyone who listens to these words of mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who built his house on rock. The rain fell, the floods came, and the winds blew and buffeted the house. But it did not collapse; it had been set solidly on rock. And everyone who listens to these words of mine but does not act on them will be like a fool who built his house on sand. The rain fell, the floods came, and the winds blew and buffeted the house. And it collapsed and was completely ruined.” The Gospel of the Lord.
