Quote/s of the Day – 9 August – St Jean-Marie-Baptiste Vianney (1786-1859) Confessor
“Man is a beggar
who needs to ask God
for everything.”
“When our hands have touched spices,
they give fragrance to all they handle.
Let us make our prayers
pass through the hands of the Blessed Virgin.
She will make them fragrant.”
“Prayer is the inner bath of love
into which the soul plunges itself.”
“How rare it is, to find a soul
quiet enough, to hear God speak.”
I Love Thee, O My God
By St John Vianney (1786-1859)
I love Thee,
O my God
and my only desire is to love Thee
until the last breath of my life.
I love Thee,
O my infinitely lovable God
and I would rather die loving Thee
than live without loving Thee.
I love Thee, Lord
and the only grace I ask,
is to love Thee eternally.
My God,
if my tongue cannot say
in every moment that I love Thee,
I wish my heart to repeat it to Thee
as often as I draw breath!
Amen

St Jean-Marie Baptiste Vianney (1786-1859)
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. .
