Thought for the Day – 18 May
St Pope John I tried to bring peace between king and emperor but succeeded also in endangering his own life. So it seems to be lot of peacemakers. However, he was willing to take the risk and so should we be in trying to reconcile others. Sometimes, we succeed but oftentimes, both sides turn against the striving peacemaker. That is the risk we take but that is also the challenge of being a Christian. “If you find that the world hates you, know it has hated me before you” (John 15:18). St Pope John I, please pray for us that we too might have your courage in the face of adversity and persecution.
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. .
