The feast of St Joseph, Patron of the Universal Church, was originally called “the Patronage of St Joseph,” and fixed to the Third Sunday after Easter. It was kept by a great many dioceses and religious orders, particularly promoted by the Carmelites, before it was extended to the universal Church by Bl. Pope Pius IX in 1847, and later granted an octave. When the custom of fixing feasts to particular Sundays was abolished as part of the Breviary reform of Pope St Pius X, it was anticipated to the previous Wednesday, the day of the week traditionally dedicated to Patron Saints. It was removed from the general Calendar in 1955 and replaced by the feast of St Joseph the Worker, one of the least fortunate aspects of the pre-Conciliar liturgical changes; the new feast itself was then downgraded from the highest of three grades (first class) in the 1962 Missal to the lowest of four (optional memorial) in 1970.

Und hier war es auch u.a. das Vorbild der Heiligen Caterina, das mich dazu bewogen hat. Sie ist in ihren Schriften hart mit der Kirche und dem Klerus ins Gericht gegangen und hat deren Verfehlungen schonungslos angeklagt und doch auf wunderbare Weise klar gemacht, dass die Kirche heilig ist und wir in dieser Kirche nach Gottes Willen vereinigt sein sollten.

Best take yet on Dig In: "That this extreme language of man’s “infinite dignity” has now led the pope to condemn the death penalty in an absolute way – and thereby to contradict scripture and all previous papal teaching on the subject – shows just how grave are the consequences of using theological language imprecisely. And this may not be the end of it."

Beautiful story of conversion....just like Saint Mary Magdalene...! The beauty of the churches in Italy that converted her is exactly why the Modernists destroyed such churches under a demonic impulse. I once read that Our Lord revealed to one of the desert Fathers and said of her that when Mary Magdalene wept at Our Lord's feet and dried them with her hair "When Mary Magdalene rose from My feet, she was more venerable than the purest of Virgins....."

1. God is infinitely happy in Himself from all eternity. He contemplates His own Essence, which contains every beauty and perfection. In the inconceivable joy of this contemplation He generates the substantial image of Himself which is the Eternal Word, “the brightness of his glory and the image of his substance.” (Heb. 1:3) When He contemplates Himself in the Eternal Word, He naturally loves Himself. This substantial and infinite Love proceeds from God as an eternal principle in so far as He knows Himself, and thence proceeds from the Father Who contemplates and the Word Who is contemplated. In this mysterious circle of the divine life God enjoys an eternal infinite and perfect happiness. Consequently, He is not in need of anything. Nevertheless, He wishes to radiate even outside of Himself the splendour of His power, beauty and goodness. He created the world and placed Man in it as the sovereign being. Unfortunately, sin came to disturb our being and to deprive us of the splendour of …More

1. In Christian teaching death is the beginning of life. “Unless the grain of wheat falls into the ground and dies,” Jesus said, “it remains alone. But if it dies, it brings forth much fruit. He who loves his life, loses it, and he who hates his life in this world keeps it unto life everlasting.” (John 12:24-25) This paradox of dying to this life in order to live in Heaven was enacted in a wonderful way in the lives of Jesus and of the Saints. It must be put into effect in our lives also if we are to be genuine Christians. Jesus shed His precious blood for us, and His death was the beginning of His triumph. The Apostles, Martyrs, and Saints gave their lives for Christ and received as their reward the happy and eternal life of Heaven. By dying to our own ego and to our passions, we shall find the true life of Christ. We must die to ourselves so that Christ may live in us as He lived in St. Paul. We must die to pride so that Christian humility may live in us; we must die to anger so that …More

Mary Magdalene is a prominent figure in the Passion and Resurrection of her Divine Master. She is the type of a soul that has been purified by grace, and then admitted to the enjoyment of God’s choicest favors. It is of importance that we study her in each of the several phases, through which divine grace led her. She keeps close to her Savior and supplies His sacred wants; elsewhere, we shall find Jesus giving the preference to her over her sister Martha, and this because Mary chose a better part than Martha; but now, during these days of Passiontide, it is her tender love for Jesus that makes her dear to us. She knows that the Jews are plotting Jesus’ death; the Holy Ghost, who guides her through the different degrees of perfection, inspires her to the performance of an action which prophesied what she most dreaded. One of the three gifts offered by the Magi to the Divine Infant was Myrrh; it is an emblem of death, and the Gospel tells us that it was used at the Burial of our Lord. …More

An unidentified man murdered Father William Banda, 38, in the sacristy of a South African cathedral as the priest was preparing to celebrate Mass. The man, described as “very well dressed,” sat next to Father Banda, a Zambian missionary priest, as he prayed in the church. He then followed Father Banda to the sacristy. The attack took place in Most Holy Trinity Cathedral in Tzaneen, a town of 15,000 in northern South Africa.
