The Gospel for the Fifteenth Sunday After Pentecost the Mass reminds us that having received the Holy Ghost at the Feast of Pentecost and Jesus in Holy Communion, our souls and bodies should be moved by the Spirit and entirely obedient to the operation of the divine gift of the Eucharist, so that it be no longer our own nature but the effect of this sacrament that ...More

   To enhance each Sunday's Epistle and Gospel we present this special feature provided by John Gregory with the Haydock Commentary found at the bottom of each page of the Douay-Rheims Bible. We publish it here in conjunction with the Epistle and Gospel for the Sunday Mass, with the cogent comprehensive Catholic Commentary penned by Father George Leo Haydock. For the Fifteenth Sunday after Pentecost we first see St. Paul's epistle to the Galatians in which he affirms that no one can fool God, man yes, but not God. He will not be mocked. This is exactly what is happening today and yet so many still want signs, the kind Our Lord works in St. Luke 7 in raising the dead son, healing the blind and deaf and still, the very multitudes who clamored for more, mocked God by being the same who abandoned Him at the hour of His Passion. Oh, man is a fickle lot and it does have consequences as to his actions.
God is Not Mocked for the Fifteenth Sunday after Pentecost

The eight North American Martyrs (1642-1649) were six priests and two lay brothers. They were heroic members of the Society of Jesus who were martyred in North America to bring the Faith that is necessary for salvation to the Huron, the Iroquois and the Mohawk Indians. Five of the eight North American martyrs were put to death in what is now Canada, and three of them in New York State. There is a shrine to the United States' martyrs at Auriesville in New York. There is a shrine to the Canadian martyrs at Fort Saint Mary near Midland, Ontario. They are Saint Rene Goupil, a lay brother martyred in 1642 in New York State; Saint Isaac Jogues, a priest, and Saint John de Lalande, a lay brother, martyred in 1646 in New York State; Saint Anthony Daniel, a priest, martyred in ...More

Editor Michael Cain weighs in with a follow-up to last week's editorial as he turns from the world view of the world to the world view of the Church as they see it today. What Cain sees is that it's time for all Catholics to get off the fence. Those who can't see the truth now, may never. We've said all we can, provided all the proof we can that we are indeed in an interminable interregnum mainly because the Great Apostasy foretold in Sacred Scripture and by many saints, not to mention the Mother of God, has arrived and we are smack dab in the middle of it. You have a choice. Choose wisely for as the Gospel of St. Matthew for the Fifteenth Week after Pentecost brought home: "You cannot serve God and mammon." Which is it? Eternal Rome or Modernist Rome? The former encompasses holy Mother Church from its founding upon the Rock of Peter through the pontificate of Pope Pius XII; the latter comprises the Vatican II church from Roncalli to Ratzinger. You can't have both. It's either follow the teachings of the Church as taught from 33 A.D. to 1958 or jump on the express to hell with the relativism and heresy spewed since Pius' death. Time is running out to eschew the wide path and get aboard that narrow path. Yes, it's a lonely way, but the only way! Cain lays it all out once again in Eternal Rome or Modernist Rome.

Saints Cosmas and Damian, twin brothers, distinguished themselves as physicians. They gave their lives for the Faith at Cyrus in Syria where they were buried. Besides using their skill for the healing of diseases they sought to spread the Faith in Christ. After many tortures they died about the year 285 in the persecution under Diocletian. The fame of their miracles spread over the whole world; many churches were erected in their honor at Rome and

Saint Wenceslaus, duke of Bohemia, ruled that country during its period of conversion to Christianity. His devotion to the Holy Eucharist Is mentioned by St. Alphonsus in his book, 'Visits to the Blessed Sacrament'. Wenceslaus was in the habit of sowing and reaping with his own hands the wheat from which the hosts were to be made, and he used to rise in the night even during the coldest seasons to visit the Blessed Sacrament. His virtue was the cause of his death, for it aroused the antagonism of his evil-minded mother and brother, who caused him ...More

We appreciate the patience of readers in waiting for this series to resume. We do so with this thirty-third lesson with the First Commandment: "I am the Lord thy God, thou shalt not have false gods before Me." This will be divided into two parts, the first "I am the Lord thy God" focusing on the positive aspects of this most important first commandment and the second part will deal with "thou shalt not have false gods before Me" in outlining the sins against this primary precept. We debunk the Protestant notion that we worship Mary or the Saints and show that worship alone belongs to the Holy Trinity, three Persons in One God - the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost. Yet it is vital to realize that Jews sand Muslims do not worship the same God as conciliar 'popes' have heretically professed for though we are all descendents of Abraham, the Old Testament was fulfilled with the Coming of Christ and because Jews did not and will not accept Christ as the Son of God and Muslims have no time for the Son or the Holy Ghost, going so far as to demean the Son as merely a prophet on the same level as the mad maniac Mohammed who apostasized from the Church in the 600's with his own set of laws and rituals that are the very antithesis of all God stands for, they fall into the category our Lord spoke of in St. Mark 16: 16, "He that believeth and is baptized, shall be saved: but he that believeth not shall be condemned." This is reinforced in the first of two steps on the The First Commandment

On this feast of the holy Bishop St. Remigius, it is only fitting that the first day of the month of the Holy Rosary be dedicated to Our Lady with the First Saturday votive Mass of the Blessed Mother on Saturday. The Mass of the Blessed Virgin shows us Mary as Mother of our Savior. She was predestined from all eternity for the role of co-redemptrix, for as Eve was the intermediary chosen by the angel of darkness to bring about the fall of Adam, so also Mary the intermediary to whom the angel Gabriel delivered the message of salvation from Heaven. She is also blessed since ...More
