Quote/s of the Day – 23 February – Monday of the First Week of Lent – The Feast of St Peter Damian (1007-1072) Cardinal Bishop, Confessor, Father and Doctor of the Church
“Let us detach ourselves in spirit
from all that we see
and cling to that which we believe.
This is the Cross
which we must imprint
on all our daily actions and behaviour.”
“The best penance is to have patience
with the sorrows God permits.
A very good penance is to dedicate oneself
to fulfill the duties of everyday
with exactitude and to study and work
with all our strength.”
“We hold our tongues in check
because if they are undisciplined
they empty the soul of the strength
of heavenly grace
and weaken its healthful vigour.”

St Peter Damian (1007-1072)
Bishop, Father and 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. .
