Quote/s of the Day – 22 October – The Memorial of St Pope John Paul II (1920-2005)
“The cemetery of the victims of human cruelty
in our century is extended to include
yet another vast cemetery,
that of the unborn.”
“The ultimate test of your greatness
is the way you treat every human being.”
“Nobody is so poor he has nothing to give
and nobody is so rich he has nothing to receive.”
“It’s better to cry than be angry
because anger hurts others,
while tears flow silently through the soul
and cleans the heart.”
“If you want peace, work for justice.
If you want justice, defend life.
If you want life, embrace truth.”
“Darkness can only be scattered by light,
hatred can only be conquered by love.”
“In this silence of the white Host,
carried in the Monstrance, are all His words;
there is His whole life given in offering to the Father
for each of us;
there is also the glory of the glorified body,
which started with the Resurrection
and still continues in Heavenly union.”
St Pope John Paul II (1920-2005)
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. .
