Quote/s of the Day – 3 April – Tuesday in the Easter Octave
Speaking of ….. Seeking Sanctity from the Wisdom of St Augustine
Lord, teach me to know You
and to know myself.
A Christian is:
a mind through which Christ thinks,
a heart through which Christ loves,
a voice through which Christ speaks
and a hand through which Christ helps.
As the soul is the life of the body,
so God is the life of the soul.
As, therefore, the body perishes
when the soul leaves it,
so the soul dies
when God departs from it.
For grace is given not because
we have done good works
but in order that,
we may be able,
to do them.
Since love grows within you,
so beauty grows.
For love is the beauty of the soul.
St Augustine (354-430) Father & Doctor of the Church
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. .
