Saint Mary Joseph Rosello | Founder of the Daughters of Our Lady of Mercy | Catechism for Kids Saint Mary Joseph Rosello (1811–1880), born Benedetta Rosello in Savona, Italy, is a beautiful example of mercy, humility, and trust in God’s providence. Growing up in a poor family, she dreamed of entering religious life but could not afford the expected dowry — a barrier that stopped many young women of her time. Yet God had a plan for her. A local bishop noticed her gifts of compassion, teaching, and leadership, and invited her to help young women who had no support or opportunities. Through this mission, she founded the Institute of the Daughters of Our Lady of Mercy in 1837. Her congregation became known for serving the poor, caring for the sick in hospitals, and educating young girls — all without ever requiring a dowry. This act alone changed countless lives. Saint Mary Joseph Rosello served as Superior General for forty years, guiding her Sisters with gentleness and deep faith as the …More
By J.B. Shurk European civilization is dying. The Trump administration’s new National Security Strategy makes this clear. It has squandered its post-WWII economic and military assistance from the United States by investing in centralized, socialist bureaucracies and expansive welfare States. By chasing the “climate change” con as a means for European governments to justify total control over the drivers of economic growth, European nations have forsaken cheap energy exploration, private entrepreneurship, and technological innovation. By depending upon the United States to defend its territorial interests, European nations have destroyed their military capabilities. In an effort to “juice” their economies with cheap labor and artificial demographic growth, European nations have opened their borders to tens of millions of foreign immigrants. The natural result is that foreign cultures have steadily eroded and replaced millennia-old European cultures without much resistance. The Trump …
Magnificat - So Beautiful -- Had to share this Acappella Hymn Cappella Hymns in Catholic Tradition youtube.com/watch?v=YhcOli9a7rg A cappella hymns, meaning hymns sung without instrumental accompaniment, form a vital part of the Catholic Church's sacred music heritage. They emphasize the purity of the human voice in worship, aligning with the Church's longstanding preference for unaccompanied vocal music in liturgical settings to foster prayerful participation and doctrinal fidelity. This practice draws from ancient traditions, as seen in the use of polyphonic hymns and Gregorian chant, and continues to be encouraged for its role in spiritual formation and communal praise. Definition and Historical Context In Catholic liturgical music, hymns are generally defined as polyphonic church songs intended to be sung a cappella, without any musical accompaniment, to maintain the solemnity and focus on the sacred texts. This unaccompanied style underscores the vocal expression of faith, echoing …More
PART 3 - THE REIGN OF THE ANTI-CHRIST I have not written a chronology of events, nor details because writing those things would be a lot and the chronology would have to be written with details as to the kind of markers I mentioned in my previous shares. I believe this is the last part I will share, I will try to summarize this dream and skip details not to make it too long. The reign of the Anti-Christ looked like a big beautiful white castle with kings blue painted domes. It was the most beautiful sight you could imagine. The castle was on a hillock. There were 7 streams that connected to it, the water run towards its center like defying gravity. At first glance the water looked very pure and crystalline like, but when I looked at it closely I could see a sediment of impurities, people from all over the world were walking on pilgrimages towards the castle and they were drinking from the waters of the streams. I warned some of the pilgrims on the side of the stream I was on not to drink …More
Caroling at Ephesus. The Benedictine Sisters of Mary The Benedictines of Mary, Queen of Apostles, are a Benedictine order of nuns founded by Sr. Mary Wilhelmina Lancaster, OSB, in Gower, Missouri. The nuns are also choral singers, and their first two albums of recorded chants and hymns reached number one on the classical traditional Billboard charts. They were thereafter named Billboard's Classical Traditional artists of the year in 2013, the first community of nuns to win an award in the history of Billboard. Their album sales have been used to improve the monastery and pay off the abbey's debt. The community also attends Mass in the traditional form and prays the 1962 MonasticBreviary. Benedictines of Mary, Queen of Apostles - …

December 6, 2025 Popes Benedict, Francis and Leo have interpreted Vatican Council II with an irrational premise and inference and a nontraditional conclusion : so also Fischella and Spadero They had a choice. They could have interpreted Vatican Council II with a rational premise and inference and then the conclusion would be traditional. RATZINGER WAS SCHISMATIC Cardinal Ratzinger could have done this at Vatican Council II in 1965. Then as Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, he could have interpreted Vatican Council II rationally to support the SSPX. He did not clarify this issue in the Catechism of the Catholic Church. He then issued Summorum Pontificum hoping that the SSPX would accept Vatican Council II, interpreted rationally. The bait was the Latin Mass. Then during the SSPX-Vatican Doctrinal Talks he did not decide to settle the issue by interpreting Vatican Council II with a rational premise and inference. Pope Benedict and Pope Francis, both chose to …More
Several churches in the United States have installed politically themed Nativity scenes criticizing U.S. immigration enforcement (ICE). In St. Susanna Parish in Massachusetts, the Baby Jesus was replaced with a sign suggesting ICE would deport Him, while another church in Illinois displayed a bound Baby Jesus and a Virgin Mary wearing a gas mask to evoke immigration protests. The churches argue these displays highlight parallels between the Holy Family’s refugee experience and modern migrant families. The Catholic Church, however, teaches both the dignity of migrants and the legitimate right of nations to control their borders, warning against turning religious symbols like Nativity scenes into political tools.
Letter to the Ephesians 1,3-6.11-12. Brothers and sisters: Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavens, as he chose us in him, before the foundation of the world, to be holy and without blemish before him. In love he destined us for adoption to himself through Jesus Christ, in accord with the favor of his will, for the praise of the glory of his grace that he granted us in the beloved. In him we were also chosen, destined in accord with the purpose of the one who accomplishes all things according to the intention of his will, so that we might exist for the praise of his glory, we who first hoped in Christ. shareyourcatholicfaith

Just days ago, Calgary Pastor Derek Reimer was arrested once more and sent to jail. His crime this time? He had been ordered by a court to write an apology for protesting a public library's "drag queen story hour." He refused to do so. He's Christian and cannot support the grooming of children. Where is the diversity and inclusion for Christians? Reimer stood in front of a public library in an effort to defend the children. In Canada, standing up for children's innocence has now become a crime. His other punishable public offence? He breached bail conditions in 2023. He asked people to call a library manager to try and dissuade her from holding the drag-queen story hour. But a judge decided that his actions were an act of intimidation to get the manager to cancel the event. As if the other side doesn't use similar tactics against Christians. What a complete double-standard. One for Christians and another for those who support the sexual letters of the alphabet. The police actually had …
DECEMBER 8 2025 THE GOSPEL breski1 Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint Luke 1,26-38. In the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God to a town of Galilee called Nazareth, to a virgin betrothed to a man named Joseph, of the house of David, and the virgin's name was Mary. And coming to her, he said, "Hail, full of grace! The Lord is with you." But she was greatly troubled at what was said and pondered what sort of greeting this might be. Then the angel said to her, "Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. Behold, you will conceive in your womb and bear a son, and you shall name him Jesus. He will be great and will be called Son of the Most High, and the Lord God will give him the throne of David his father, and he will rule over the house of Jacob forever, and of his kingdom there will be no end." But Mary said to the angel, "How can this be, since I have no relations with a man?" And the angel said to her in reply, "The Holy Spirit will come upon …More

[Direct link to the MP3 file — Subscribe using a modern podcast app] In this sermon Father discusses the Immaculate Conception, explaining how Blessed Duns Scotus resolved theological difficulties by arguing that it was fitting for God to preserve His mother from original sin, a doctrine later defined as dogma by Pope Pius 9th. Mary is the “woman” of Genesis who crushes the serpent’s head, and as the “mold of God,” she serves as the perfect mediator to help the faithful be transformed into Christ. We need to practice total consecration to the Immaculate, imitating her virtues and relying on her intercession as it is the surest path to salvation and victory in spiritual warfare. Key quotes from this sermon: St. Augustine: “Mary was the only one who merited to be called the mother and spouse of God.” St. Augustine: “For sin never had any entry into the soul of the Blessed Virgin.” St. Bernard of Clairvaux: “Thou alone was found worthy to be chosen as the one in whose virginal womb …
