Thought for the Day – 9 February
It seems at times that the saints begin with an unfair advantage. Today’s highlighted Saint, Miguel Febres Cordero, was born with a Club foot. At the age of five Our Lady appeared to him and he who previously could not stand alone or walk, ran to her – from then on his disability vanished! Where is our ‘unfair advantage’? Is it not in running to Him who waits in the Tabernacle? Our Lord is truly with us, Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity – is this not an unfair advantage?
St Miguel, Pray for us!


Passionate Catholic.
Being a Catholic is a way of life - a love affair "Religion must be like the air we breathe..."- St John Bosco
Prayer is what the world needs combined with the example of our lives which testify to the Light of Christ.
This site, which is now using the Traditional Calendar, will mainly concentrate on Daily Prayers, Novenas and the Memorials and Feast Days of our friends in Heaven, the Saints who went before us and the great blessings the Church provides in our Catholic Monthly Devotions.
This Site is placed under the Patronage of my many favourite Saints and especially, St Paul.
"For the Saints are sent to us by God
as so many sermons.
We do not use them, it is they who move us
and lead us, to where we had not expected to go.”
Charles Cardinal Journet (1891-1975)
This site adheres to the pre-Vatican II Catholic Church and all her teachings. .
