Quote of the Day – 22 December – The Fourth Sunday of Advent, Year A
“Jesus Christ, the God-Man,
was born in a manger
and is spiritually reborn on the altar.
He suffered on Calvary
and continues to offer Himself on the altar.
In His earthly life, He spread His teaching
and worked miracles among the crowds.
In the Eucharist, He spans the centuries
and communicates Himself to all.”
St John Chrysostom (347-407)
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. .

You know me, I see that they all new this as a truth but a lot of current Catholics don’t seem to get the message at all. I stopped a person last Sunday walking away with host in her hand and started back to her seat. I always take the Sacrament on my tongue as I am not worthy to touch it.

Still offering the host but it was the seminarian who had given her the host. The acoalites should be more vigilant too.
