 Greetings in Jesus and Mary....
The Catholic Church is in serious trouble and if we do not wear our Brown Scapular and pray our Rosary and find a Latin Mass, we will be at risk of being deceived by this "New Church" which is evolving and has been evolving for the past few decades. I have been a home schooling mom from the 1990's-2010. The motu proprio Summorum Pontificum came in July, 2007 when I was almost done with home schooling my children. I began to study the difference and decided to only go to the Latin Mass but this was difficult for my children since they were raised with the New Mass. They were not willing to change. They also saw and heard of the priestly scandals, even local ones. They continued to go to the Novus Ordo on their own until college years gave them "great knowledge" and then they began doubting their faith. Then came "COVID lockdowns" and they were told NOT to go to Mass for one full year. When the year was over.......their faith in the need for Mass was over. THIS HAPPENED TO MANY CATHOLIC FAMILIES THAT I KNEW. (5 of my 6 children no longer go to Mass on Sunday.) It was and still is devastating. I continue to pray and beg Our Blessed Mother to help them to seek the Truth and come to understand the Latin Mass. I have supplied books but to no avail. THIS HAS BEEN TRAGIC because it is an eternal one. Many mothers and fathers feel betrayed. I have encouraged many to read the book, "Open Letter to Confused Catholics" by Archbishop LeFebvre.(below) The below short video just released by Michael Matt is very good to hear. May we pray, be strong, and take heed. The plans of destruction have worked on our children ...... may we pray for their souls. They are after the young souls today like never before. God help them through the prayers and intercession of our Blessed Mother. If there are young parents reading this or if you know of young parents with small children; please help them to understand that they must go to a Latin Mass and stay far from the New Mass if they want graces to penetrate the souls of their children. PS....Below I am including an extra video about a mother in Florida who had a 13 year old girl come home to say that she wanted to be a boy. I am including this because ALL school districts except 3 in Florida have this agenda to HELP students come to this same conclusion. This is in ALL 50 STATES. OUR NATION IS TAKEN OVER... FOR THOSE OUTSIDE OF THE USA....THEY ARE COMING YOUR WAY IF THEY ARE NOT THERE YET! BEWARE NO MATTER WHAT SCHOOL YOU ARE ENROLLING YOUR CHILDREN. May Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament, pray for us!

 Greetings in Jesus and Mary....
Well, here we are in 2024 and living in a time of profound cancel culture. Why not? If the devil is running rampant and deceiving the majority of humans today; he must cancel out those who are walking in truth. There is no other way and when you belong to Satan; the means of how you are doing it are irrelevant. I just posted two days ago Campion's Brag; which are the thoughts of St. Edmund Campion when he was tried in England; on how he was only doing what God had called him to do and should not be punished by the authorities for doing it. Here we are in 2024. We have people being thrown off of social media platforms for their opinions that go against the fake news. We have schools and hospitals going against parents who want the best for their children. We had government, education systems, businesses, all let go of people who refused the COVID injections. We have adult children still cancelling their parents for not wanting the COVID injections or for religious or political disagreements. We have pro-life heroes getting thrown in jail for YEARS but yet real criminals go free. We have patriots in jail STILL from January 6th for being invited into the capital to peacefully protest a stolen election FROM three years ago...still NO TRIAL for some. We have a past president of the USA getting tried for all sorts of things... ANYTHING to get him to be cancelled while the sitting president is guilty of HIGH TREASON. We have a sitting Pope of Inclusion; who wants to cancel another cleric (an Archbishop) for calling out the damage, lies and just wanting truth in the Roman Catholic Church. Everyone is invited to this new Church that Bergoglio is creating BUT NOT TRUE TRADITIONAL CATHOLICS. This claim against this Archbishop comes just before the Latin Mass will be banned in the entire world by this Pope of Inclusion (if we do not pray and make sacrifices) All of this seems to be leading to a worldwide fight of GOOD vs. EVIL; TRUTH vs. LIES. There is talk about internment camps around the world to be used for dissidents. The internet will soon be purged of all dissidents. Is the next World War going to be like World War II but instead of concentration camps just being in Germany and Poland, we will have them world wide.....paid for by citizens tax dollars? May we pray to Our Blessed Mother for peace. She has warned us many times over the centuries that it would come to this. We have not listened to our Mother. Does anyone listen to their mother? Let us pray for Archbishop Vigano who has spoken out as a true hero about what is happening in our Church, in God's Church (link below). He knows that time here on earth is short and that we are to stand before God someday and answer for our actions (or lack of). Let us all take heed to the example Archbishop Vigano is giving us. We do not want to be lukewarm or compromising Catholics. We want to be set on fire for Truth and for Jesus Christ and His One Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church. And if we are to be persecuted for it by our families, our friends, our pastor, our community, our Vatican; then rejoice for your reward in Heaven will be great! (for all eternity!) But the most important reason is to serve God above all things..... showing Him our unfailing, uncompromising love! One can see now....so many years later....that Cardinal Josef Suenens. one of the moderators of Vatican II, was correct when the Council finished and he proudly said, "Vatican II is the French Revolution in the Church". (Meaning the Declaration of Man by the Freemasons.... and that they had dethroned God) We have seen nothing but horror since it happened. Remember that Our Lady had asked that the Third Secret of Fatima be revealed to the world in 1960. Pope John XXIII read it himself and declared that this may never be given to the public. WAS IT THIS? ...... and was it the reason that to a huge degree, the message of Fatima has been ignored by Rome! Our Lady of the Most Holy Rosary, pray for us! St. Edmund Campion and all heroic saints, pray for us! Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre, pray for us!  Greetings in Jesus and Mary.... I just saw this on Life Site News and am repeating it here and will put a link at the bottom. Please continue to pray the Reparation Prayers of Fatima, and pray with great sincerity as we are about to enter into some turbulent times. God is in charge and as long as we hold Our Blessed Mother's hand....She will guide us and give us the strength we need to do God's Will....whatever it may be. If you have children in your home be sure to help strengthen their faith in a loving and just God and a true love for their Blessed Mother. Depending on their age, explain what is going on in the world so they accept God's Will. This, as well as your prayers for them, will bring them peace. God bless all of you and love God with your whole heart, mind and soul! Taken from Life Site News dated June 20, 2024...... "Catholics are being called upon to partake in a worldwide Rosary novena to restore peace in the world. From June 24 to July 2, Catholics around the world will partake in a nine-day Rosary novena, appealing to the Immaculate Heart of Mary to avert a Third World War and restore peace. “We are in WWIII,” the website promoting the initiative declared. “President George Bush Jnr said as much back in 2005, and Pope Francis said the same in 2013. In the first week of June 2024, Germany and the US gave Ukraine permission to use their weapons to strike inside Russia, and France is considering sending troops to Ukraine.” The novena is being led by a faithful Catholic who told LifeSiteNews she would like to remain anonymous, saying, “my sole motivation is simple – to do my best to stop WWIII.” “The Middle East is a tragedy, and one can never rule out a confrontation between China and Taiwan. And North Korea? Let’s pray no country uses nuclear weapons – there is no such thing as a limited nuclear war,” the website explains. “It makes little difference who started down this path. Our Lady warned the children at Fatima in 1917, ‘war is the punishment for sin’. A hundred years later, the world is awash with every type of sin imaginable,” it continues. “For this reason, we all share some of the responsibility for this calamitous situation,” the website declares. “Unless the world turns back to God; humbly asks for forgiveness and mercy; and cries out in one voice to heaven to help end this madness, we must accept the consequences – the possible annihilation of a great part of humanity.” The novena follows the directive of Pope Benedict XV, who reigned during WWI. During the devastating war, Pope Benedict called on Catholics to join him in a novena to Mary, Queen of Peace. Before the novena was even completed, Our Lady appeared to the three young children at Fatima, Portugal, on May 13, 1917. Later, on October 13, 1917, around 70,000 people witnessed the Miracle of the Sun, which some say is the greatest public miracle since the Resurrection. The First World War ended the next year in 1918. The new Rosary novena includes Pope Benedict XV’s same novena prayer: “To Mary, then, who is the Mother of Mercy and omnipotent by grace, let loving and devout appeal go up from every corner of the earth – from noble temples and tiniest chapels, from royal palaces and mansions of the rich as from the poorest hut – from blood-drenched plains and seas.” “Let it bear to Her the anguished cry of mothers and wives, the wailing of little innocent ones, the sighs of the generous heart; that her most tender and benign solicitude may be moved and the peace we ask for be obtained for our agitated world,” it concludes. Each day of the novena, Catholics are asked to pray Pope Benedict’s prayer, the Rosary, and a short intention which can be found on the website. “If you want peace in the world, go home and love your families,” the website quotes St. Teresa of Calcutta.  Greetings in Jesus and Mary...
Well, I am not sure how to begin. The website, "Rorate Caeli" has just posted yesterday the grim news of a "possible" maybe "probable" new Vatican document to suppress the Latin Mass. YIKES! Are we really here? Are we to see history repeat itself but now through Rome itself and throughout the world? Many should study Church history. In many parts of the world and in many lands, the Catholic Latin Mass has been under attack. Why? Because it is the unbloody sacrifice of Our Lord Jesus Christ offered to the Eternal Father for the sins of the world. If you were Satan and in battle against God, you would attack the Mass! When Pope Benedict gave us the Apostolic Letter Summorum Pontificum in 2007, I did extensive study on the difference between the two Masses. I was raised with the Novus Ordo my entire life and was told it is the SAME Mass just in English. WRONG! When I found out what they did to the Mass and who did it, I immediately stopped the Novus Ordo and only attend a Latin Mass. There is a link on this website under "Devotions" for more information of what I found to make this decision. As I was doing my studies, I saw an ad in the Church bulletin of where I was holding my Carmelite meetings for someone to help teach a homeschool group that meets there throughout the year. I volunteered and was told to help teach junior high and high school kids about the Elizabethan Era. I must admit, I had to do some preliminary studies. HOW PROVIDENTIAL! I came to know the saints of England who died for the Latin Mass rather than going to the Anglican Mass which was just created. (Which, by the way, looks a lot better than the Novus Order that we presently have today.) Edmund Campion was one such saint; and I will post below his "Campion's Brag" before he was hung, drawn and quartered for offering the Latin Mass to his English people in hiding. The English Catholics would hide the priests and the sacred vessels in secret walls in their homes. St. Margaret Clitherow (pictured above) was one who would offer her home. Clitherow allowed secret Masses to be celebrated in her home, where she also hid Roman Catholic missionary priests. After further imprisonments and releases, she was seized on March 10, 1586, during a raid on her home. Her fate was sealed, for a law of 1583 made aiding priests punishable by death. She refused to plead guilty or innocent, stating that only God could judge her, and was executed by being slowly crushed to death with an 800-pound weight on March 25, 1586. On June 17, 2024, this is what is posted on Rorate Caeli .......... An attempt is being made to implement, as soon as possible, a Vatican document with a stringent, radical, and final solution banning the Traditional Latin Mass. The same ideologues who imposed Traditionis Custodes and its implementation, and who are still frustrated with its apparently slow results, especially in the United States and France, want to ban it and shut it down everywhere and immediately. They want to do it while Francis is still in power. They want to make it as wide, final, and irreversible as possible. These rumors come from the most credible sources,* in different continents, and we urge you to take them as seriously as possible, and do what you can in your station, as laity, priests, bishops, cardinals, religious men and women, to prevent the ban from becoming a concrete measure. Can we stop it from happening? Yes, we can: by prayer, sacrifice, penance -- and influence and pressure, of whatever sort we can manage to put forward. The enemy is strong, but Our Lord and Our Lady are mightier. A note for all Catholics who feel called to go to the Latin Mass but just can not. I encourage you to find a Monastery or Convent that offers Latin Mass in their chapels. I go to one that is one hour from my house and on Sundays there are even families there with small children. This is very heroic as the exposure to the Novus Ordo for children will hurt their faith. There is evidence of this. Going to Monasteries may be outlawed soon but until then, I will go. Also, there is a website offered by the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter called LiveMass.net I do use this site for weekday Masses when I can not go and I then offer a Spiritual Communion. In countries where the Latin Mass was suppressed, the Catholics had to wait for a priest to get their Latin Mass. It may come to this again when obtaining a priest to offer a Latin Mass will be a great grace and privilege. Our Lady of the Most Blessed Sacrament, pray for us! St. Edmund Campion and St. Margaret Clitherow, pray for us!  Greetings in Jesus and Mary....
I am a day late on an article for Father's Day. I pray that all Fathers were treated with love, thankfulness and respect. At Mass yesterday, the chaplain for the Carmelite Nuns in Traverse City gave an excellent homily related to the errors of communism spoken of by Our Blessed Mother and their destruction of the family. On October 13th, 1917, the miracle of the sun was accompanied by visions for the three children. One of them was the Holy Family and the blessing to the world. The appearance of the Holy Family is significant since the destruction of the family is one of the key goals of the communists in the world to destabilize it for world domination. Father's homily pointed out the goals of the communists when writing the Communist Manifesto. We have seen nothing but the destruction of the family for the past 100 years. Feminism, lack of modesty, lack of respect for parents, fathers not knowing their roles in their families, transgenderism, mutilation of our children and last but certainly not least.....denying the existence of God as Father. The true fatherhood of God and the strong role of the father of the family are rejected by mankind today and have been perpetrated by the socialist idealogies in the world. Father, in his homily, mentioned that St. Joseph was the head of the Holy Family, not because he was the most holy (he was least in that respect next to Jesus and Mary); he was the head of the Holy Family because he was the FATHER of the family. As such he represented God the Father. St. Paul said in Ephesians 3:14-15, "I bow my knees to the Father of Our Lord Jesus Christ of whom all paternity in Heaven and earth is named." The fatherhood of St. Joseph, as with all human fathers, is a reflection in a creature of the fatherhood of God the Father. If we understand that the first family on earth was to be a reflection of the Triune God, of Three in One, we can see that this first family was a prototype of all families. Families are the most basic unit of society, and the plan for the human family was a true reflection of God Himself. St. Joseph, as the head of the family, shared God's authority, as does every human father. The source of the authority comes from the "office," not the "person." Yet because of that role, St. Joseph was burdened with responsibilities and duties that came along with his fatherhood. This is the same for all fathers. No father is perfect. St. Joseph was as close to that as a human being could be. It is apparent, now more than ever, that fatherhood has been diminished and that many see it as old-fashioned or unnecessary. Even the role of the priests as fathers is challenged in society today. Yet there is no denying that the role of fathers is crucial to family life and to life in the Church. May we pray for our Church leaders, our fathers and husbands to St. Joseph to help them and guide them in this very trying time in the world. The Earliest Known Prayer to St. Joseph (circa 50 A.D.) O St. Joseph, whose protection is so great, so strong, so prompt before the throne of God, I place in you all my interests and desires. O St. Joseph, do assist me by your powerful intercession and obtain for me from your divine son all spiritual blessings through Jesus Christ, our Lord; so that having engaged here below your heavenly power, I may offer my thanksgiving and homage to the most loving of Fathers. O St. Joseph, I never tire of contemplating you, and Jesus asleep in your arms. I dare not approach while He reposes near your heart. Press Him in my name and kiss His fine head for me, and ask Him to return the kiss when I draw my dying breath. St. Joseph, patron of departing souls, pray for us. Amen.  Greetings in Jesus and Mary....
This Friday is the First Friday of June and is also the Feast of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus. This feast day is in the Octave of Corpus Christi because the Blessed Sacrament is the Sacrament of Love...the Love of the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus. I will start with a little history of the Sacred Heart in the Church......St. John Eudes was born in France in 1601 and St. Margaret Mary Alocoque was born in France in the year 1647. Both of these saints from France played a significant role in giving the Church the devotion to the Most Sacred Heart of Jesus in the 1600's. Almost 100 years later in 1793-1796 the French people in the Vendee region wore the Sacred Heart badge as they fought against the Freemasonic Revolutionaries. (link below on the Vendee) Since on the feast of Corpus Christi, I wrote on St. Margaret Mary; I am now going to quote St. John Eudes from his writings on the Sacred Heart of Jesus..... " O my Savior, on that first Holy Thursday evening, Thy thoughts were only of peace, charity, and good will for men, wheras the Jews thought only of malice and cruelty. Thou didst seek only to save them; they sought only to do away with Thee. Thy whole Heart and Thy whole mind were bent on breaking the chains that held them bound as the slaves of demons; and they would sell Thee, betray Thee and deliver Thee into the hands of Thy cruel enemies. Thou was preoccupied with establishing an adorable Sacrament whereby always to abide with them, but they were striving to drive Thee from the world, to banish Thee from off he earth, and even to destroy Thee if they could but do so. Thou didst prepare for them on earth boundless graces and in heaven thrones magnificent and glorious crowns, if they were willing to render themselves worthy of them, but they were preparing for Thee ropes, lashes, thorns, nails, lances, crosses, spittle, revilings, blasphemies and all sorts of shameful outrageous cruelties. Thou didst set before them a most delectable feast of Thy own flesh and blood, and they gave Thee gall and vinegar to drink. Thou didst give them Thy holy and immaculate body and they bruised it by blows, they cut it with their lashes, they pierced it in a thousand places with thorns and nails, they covered it with wounds from head to foot, they dismembered it on the Cross, causing it to suffer the most atrocious tortures. Finally, my Saviour, Thou didst love them more than Thy own life and blood since Thou didst sacrifice them for Thy enemies. In return, they rent Thy soul from Thy body by violence. What goodness! What charity! What love flowing from Thy Adorable Heart, O my Saviour! What ingratitude! What wickedness! What cruelty stemming from the heart of man! What happened then still happens today. Thy most loving Heart, O Jesus, dwells in this Sacrament, burning with love for us. It is there continually performing thousands of good deeds towards us. How do we repay Thee, O Lord? We repay Thee with ingratitude and injuries a thousandfold, in thought, word and deed, trampling under foot Thy divine commandments and those of the Church. Ungrateful wretches, our most gracious Saviour so loved us that, while He was on earth, He would have died a thousand deaths for love of us if He had not miraculously preserved His life. He is still ready to die a hundred thousand times for us if it were possible and necessary for our salvation. Let us then die, die of sorrow in beholding our sins; let us die of shame that we have so little love for Him; let us die a thousand deaths rather than ever offend Him again. O my Saviour, grant us this favor, we implore Thee! O Mother of Jesus, obtain for us this grace from thy Well-beloved Son!" Pope Pius XI associated the worship of Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament with expiation for sin. St. Margaret Mary had been canonized in 1920, just two years before Achille Ratti was elected Pope. In 1928, he wrote a lengthy encyclical on Reparation to the Sacred Heart. Its whole theme is on he desperate need to plead for God's mercy, especially through the Holy Eucharist. Among the ways to make reparation to the Heart of Jesus, they Pope urged the faithful to "make expiatory supplications and prayers, prolonged for a whole hour which is rightly call the "Holy Hour" (Miserentissimus Redemptor, May 8, 1928). It was during Adoration that Our Lord came to St. Margaret Mary with the requests. May we offer much reparation before the Most Blessed Sacrament. Let us try to pray the Reparation Prayers of Fatima at the Consecration of each of the Masses we go to as well making Spiritual Communions with Jesus in prayer and reparation for the multitude of crimes we see. Our Lady of the Most Blessed Sacrament, pray for us Sacred Heart of Jesus, have mercy on us All you holy angels and saints, pray for us. |
