Quote/s of the Day – 25 April – Wednesday of the Fourth Week of Easter and the Feast of St Mark the Evangelist
Speaking of: Being Catholic
“I would not believe in the Gospel,
had not the authority
of the Catholic Church
already moved me.”
St Augustine (354-430) Father & Doctor
“In her voyage,
across the ocean of this world,
the Church is like a great ship
being pounded by the waves
of life’s different stresses.
Our duty is not to abandon ship
but to keep her on her course.”
St Boniface (672-754) Father & Martyr
“Jesus is with me.
I have nothing to fear.”
Blessed Pier Giorgio Frassati (1901-1925)
“The Jesus of the Gospels
is surely not convenient for us.”
“The Jesus who makes everything okay
for everyone is a phantom,
a dream,
not a real figure…”
Pope Benedict XVI
“Catholicism is a matter
of the body
and the senses,
as much as it is a matter
of the mind,
precisely because,
the Word became flesh.”
“Easter is an earthquake,
an explosion.
If you see it as less than that,
you’re not getting it.”
Bishop Robert Barron
“At some point,
Jesus is going to call you out.
That’s what He does.”
Father Mike Schmitz

Passionate Catholic. Being Catholic is a way of life - a love affair both with God and Father, our Lord Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, our most Blessed and Beloved Virgin Mother Mary and the Church. "Religion must be like the air we breathe..."- St John Bosco
With the Saints, we "serve the Lord with one consent and serve the Lord with one pure language, not indeed to draw them forth from their secure dwelling-places, not superstitiously to honour them, or wilfully to rely on the, ... but silently to contemplate them for edification, thereby encouraging our faith, enlivening our patience..."
Blessed John Henry Newman
Prayer is what the world needs combined with the example of our lives which testify to the Light of Christ. This site 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.
"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 Catholic Church and all her teachings but rejects the Second Vatican Council as heretical and, therefore, all that followed it.
