Quote/s of the Day – 24 July – St Francisco Solano

Quote/s of the Day – 24 July – “The Month of the Most Precious Blood” – St Francisco Solano OFM (1549 – 1610) “The Wonder Worker of the New World”

When Francisco Solano was about to die, one of the friars asked him:
‘Faher, when God takes you to Heaven
remember me when you enter
the everlasting Kingdom.’

With joy Francisco replied:

It is true that I am going to Heaven
but on the strength of Christ’s
Passion and Death;
for myself, I am the greatest of sinners.
But I will be a good friend to you
when I reach my home in Heaven.

(From a contemporary Vita of St SFrancisco Solano)

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. . PLEASE ADVISE ME OF ANY GLARING TYPOS etc - In June 2021 I lost 100% sight in my left eye and sometimes miss errors. Thank you and I pray all those who visit here will be abundantly blessed.
