CATHOLIC: ALWAYS REMAIN UNITED TO THE CROSS OF CHRIST


Catholics must unite themselves to the cross, in the depths of their souls, uniting the sufferings of our time with the Passion of Our Lord.

We must not only unite against modern errors, but we must provide our families with an alternative to this godless world in Christian civilization. Therefore, our unity is first for the Truth and then against error.

The Truth we promote is Catholic Tradition in all its fullness: the doctrine revealed by Christ and guarded by the Catholic Church: faith and morals, as well as the sacred traditional liturgy and also the customs, pious beliefs, and the great monuments of art, architecture, and music.

We unite according to the binding force of Tradition; this is what was handed down to us by our grandparents and parents, to be passed on to our children and grandchildren.

WHAT THE PRIEST SHOULD BE CONCERNED ABOUT

 



“Look, my priest, stop worrying about the suggestion of numbers and focus more on quality. Rather than filling my churches with people, focus on filling them with the sweet aroma of fervent Communions, of heartfelt adoration, of sighs of love, of aspirations of hope, of inspirations of faith, of well-praised prayers, of sinners' tears, of effective resolutions of amendment, of an intensely Eucharistic life.” Author: Monsignor Manuel González (1877-1940), the Apostle of the Abandoned Tabernacles.

CORPUS THURSDAY OBLIGES MASS, AT LEAST IN MEX


 

Corpus Christi is the feast of the Body and Blood of Christ, of the presence of Jesus Christ in the Eucharist. Although it falls on Thursday, it is a holy day of obligation (at least in Mexico; other countries ask about their place of origin) and therefore requires—gravely—attendance at the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass in order to fulfill the third commandment of the Law of God. On this day, we remember the institution of the Eucharist, which took place on Holy Thursday during the Last Supper, when Jesus converted the bread and wine into His Body and Blood. That is, Christ is truly present in the host and chalice, after the consecration, with His Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity. This truth is a dogma of faith for every Catholic. It is a very important feast because the Eucharist is the greatest gift that God has given us, moved by His desire to remain with us after the Ascension. Origin of the feast: God used Saint Juliana of Mont Cornillon to bring about this feast. From a young age, Juliana had a great veneration for the Blessed Sacrament. She always longed for a special feast in her honor. This desire is said to have been intensified by a vision she had of the Church under the appearance of a full moon with a black spot, which signified the absence of this solemnity. When she grew up, she made her religious profession and later became superior of her community. He died on April 5, 1258. The Council of Trent The Council of Trent declared that the custom was very piously and religiously introduced into the Church of God that every year on a certain feast day this most exalted and venerable sacrament be celebrated with singular veneration and solemnity, and that it be reverently and honorably carried in procession through the streets and public places. In this, Christians attest their gratitude and remembrance for such an ineffable and truly divine benefit. Let us remember that during the Mass, the holy Sacrifice of Calvary is renewed in an unbloody manner.

THERE IS NO HIGHER WORSHIP


 

"What an incomparable honor we have in participating in the Holy Mass! If we were to combine all the merits and virtues of all the saints who have ever existed and will ever exist, with all the love of the blessed, including the angels and the Blessed Virgin Mary herself, all of them together could not give God as much honor, praise, or satisfaction as He receives in a single Holy Mass." Father Pedro Vignes

THE MOST HOLY TRINITY

 


What should we do on the Feast of the Most Holy Trinity? – On the Feast of the Most Holy Trinity, we must do five things: 1. adore the mystery of the Triune God; 2. give thanks to the Most Holy Trinity for all the temporal and spiritual benefits we receive from Her; 3. consecrate ourselves totally to God and surrender ourselves completely to His divine Providence; 4. remember that through Baptism we entered the Church and were made members of Jesus Christ by the invocation and virtue of the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit; 5. determine to always devoutly make the Sign of the Cross, which expresses this mystery, and to pray with lively faith and the intention of glorifying the Most Holy Trinity those words that the Church so often repeats: Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit. (Catechism of St. Pius X, Instruction I, c. XII).
