           On this Easter 2013, we want to extend to all our readers a blessed and grace-filled Easter and may you bask in the Mystical Light of our Resurrected Savior and grow stronger in your Faith throughout this time of Paschaltide. Alleluia, alleluia. We remind all that the Regina Coeli replaces the Angelus during Paschaltide. For this Annual Easter Week Edition, click on the preferred date above. We will return on Low Sunday when we will resume daily issues.

Throughout this paschal week the Roman Liturgy is entirely absorbed by two great thoughts, that of the Resurrection of Our Lord and that of the Baptism of the neophytes. These are, as it were, two mysteries which mutually complete and explain each other. Each is a symbol of the other; the one is the prototype, the other the antitype; but neither can be understood if considered by itself, for the regeneration of souls to the life of grace through the sacrament of Baptism, after a spiritual manner which yet is full of reality, is a new Resurrection of Christ in His Mystical Body. There is no longer any mention of fasts and corporal penances, but instead, visits are paid to the great Roman Basilicas, the white-clad band of neophytes being conducted thither as in a triumphal procession. After the paschal vigil of Holy Saturday at the Lateran the first basilica to be visited is that of the Mother of God on the Esquiline, for it is fitting that to her, before any other, the joys of the Resurrection should be announced, to her who more intimately than any other shared in the Passion of Jesus. The Introit is derived from Psalm 138, which extols the knowledge and the presence of God that pervade the inner-most part of our being. The antiphon has, however, been adapted to the paschal solemnity as we see in the liturgy for The Resurrection of the Lord

Father Benedict Hughes, CMRI, Rector of St. Joseph's Minor Seminary in Rathdrum, Idaho at the City of Mary presents a 10 minute sermon for the Solemnity of the Resurrection of Our Lord in which Father shows how this was the crowning glory of His work. He gave them everything He could, even His Own body and blood, but true to His prophesy, He would rise again on the third day, which, indeed, He did, and by doing so, merited for us our opportunity at eternal life. While so many asked that He show the doubters a sign, He showed the greatest sign possible in rising from the dead. Just as Christ triumphed over sin and death, so also will we if we are obedient to the divine Will. Father also equates the few Macchabees with the remnant today to stay the course, carry our cross and know that we will have life everlasting. Father explains in his sermon Easter Sunday

Through the kind assistance of John Gregory, we are able to provide our readers with the Haydock Commentaries for the Epistle and Gospel for the Solemnity of the Resurrection of the Lord to complement the Propers of the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. In Father George Leo Haydock's commentaries on the Douay-Rheims version of the New Testament for Easter Sunday As St. Paul asserts in one of the shortest epistles of the year, the old leaven, meaning the Old Testament, has been fulfilled. The old rites have been superseded by the new rite instituted by the Son of man on Maundy Thursday. Through the new unleavened Bread we receive the Body and Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ our Lord and become heirs of the kingdom of Heaven, Jew and Gentile alike who abide in Him and all He has taught through His One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church. Reason indeed to exclaim with great jubilation: Alleluia, alleluia for indeed it is time to The Rising of the Unleavened Bread

Dr. Thomas A. Droleskey completes his special series on Reflections of Salvation History with the Glorious Resurrection. In this special eight-part series on "A Reflection of Salvation History," first introduced to our readers back in 2003, and brought to you to enhance your contemplation for this holy season, Tom has taken us indeed from Eden to the empty tomb. He points out that, despite the hardships, the sacrifices, the insults, the scourging, the stripping, the nailing and hanging on the wood of the Cross, Christ proved for all time that it was worth it. Is it worth it to us? By our actions and fidelity to His teachings passed down through His Holy Church and carried out in the Sacraments, especially Baptism, Penance and the Holy Eucharist, we illustrate if we think so. If we are His loyal lambs, Christ the Lamb of God has guaranteed He will be loyal to us at our Particular Judgment. Nothing else matters for salvation is at stake. Alleluia. Tom explains in his seventh and final installment of his Holy Week series From Eden to the Empty Tomb The Resurrection

This Octave is entirely consecrated to the neophytes. The week was for them a continual feast, a spiritual feast; and they kept their white baptismal garments, which were not laid aside until the following Sunday (in albis deponendis). The Masses of this Octave allude, like that of Pentecost, sometimes to the Resurrection, sometimes to Baptism. Let us follow the example of the neophytes, let us all be one in mind and heart, in proclaiming together our faith in the risen ...More

Paschaltide is here and it is no April Fools that we wonder how many more Easters we'll see considering the state of the world today, physically, morally and especially spiritually. Editor Michael Cain asks how much longer can the Almighty Father stay His hand? Considering the Prophesies of Saint Malachy, it would seem not much longer for we have reached that point in time - in history - when we have arrived at that Mayan moment, if you will, for this is far more serious than any Y2K scare or Mayan/Egyptian prediction that the world will end. Jesus told us when it would occur in St. Matthew 24 and yet we plod merrily on, paying more attention to the drop of water that is our fleeting existence on this earth compared to the unending ocean of eternal life. Which is more important? Duh! Hate to pour water on your plans, but it's time to store up on the Faith, learn it, practice it, preach it, share it, and time to assist those who have the mediums to reach souls for without you, souls perish. Do you really want to tread water when you float before the Eternal Judge, or be confident you can sail to the heavenly harbor because you proved yourself as a worthy crew member of the good ship S.S. Church Militant? Time to heave ho and lift the sails, we're all heading into uncharted waters as Cain calls for An Armada to Arms!

Station at the St. Paul-Outside-the-Walls. After visiting St. Peter's, it was fitting that the neophytes should at once be brought to the Doctor of the Gentiles, beside whose tomb they had learned the first rudiments of the new law of the Gospel. Therefore in the Lesson from the Acts of the Apostles chosen for today, it is Paul who announces to the ...More

There always seems to be a blogalogian these days who thinks he knows better than the infallible, perennial Magisterium of the Church and, whether willfully or stupidly out of pride, seems intent on undermining that which alone offers hope for bringing the true Church out of Her 55-year eclipse and for perpetuating the true Faith. But these so-called 'experts' on the blog don't really know their Faith and Griff Ruby is determined to set them straight, not only because that is what Jesus asks us to do in St. Matthew 18: 15-17, but also because he has personally been attacked. Thus, reluctantly, he accepts the challenge for this cancer of cluelessness by those trying to compromise with conciliar concepts has gone on long enough. Thus, we present part one of a series in which he responds in proving what the Church decrees: Sede vacante! Why? Because Vatican II mandated it, and God in His Providence permitted this harsh Judgment! Live with that fact and seek to embrace the Remnant Church, or rue the day you learned of these things and did nothing when you stand before the Merciful and All-Just Judge and try to explain your rejection of this opportunity to recognize His Church and be blessed. Griff sets the record straight with the first part of a multi-part series One Cannot Subsist On Error

Station at the St. Laurence-Without-the-Walls. Today we honor St. Lawrence, the Cross-bearer of the Roman Church, to express our gratitude for the favor shown by him to the catechumens in bringing them to holy Baptism. The Gospel gives the account of the third appearance of the risen Savior to the Apostles. On the shores of Lake Tiberias St. John, the virgin soul among the Apostles, sees him first, but Peter, the most ardent and the most ...More

We have seen the systematic destruction of the Church founded by Christ by the last five anti-popes, all hand-picked by Satan to deceive even the elect. But what about the elect? Isn't it time they woke up and realized they can only live the lie just so long? Do they not realize that the newest emperor (read anti-pope here) has no clothes and, like the Wizard of Oz, he is nothing but a fraud? Not only is he not Catholic, he's not even a priest, but a mere layman, one who leans left and even more left with his socialist screed that has nothing to do with the Nicene Creed. And yet, dollar to a donut, the same ol' resist-yet-recognize crowd will make excuse after excuse for Mr. Bergoglio the unFrancis not because they really believe this man could ever uphold the constituted evangelic Tradition and the purity of the orthodox faith, but because they're too proud to admit the sedevacantists have had it right all along and with each passing day that becomes more and more evident to all except those who "receive not the love of the truth, that they might be saved" The result: "God shall send them the operation of error, to believe lying: that all may be judged who have not believed the truth, but have consented to iniquity." John asks, Do You See Satan's Plan Now?

Station at the Church of the Twelve Apostles in Rome. Under the high altar of this church are preserved the relics of the Apostles Philip and James only; the stational feast is celebrated in honor of all the Apostles together. The Lesson from the Acts of the Apostles deals with the conversion of the treasurer of Candace, Queen ...More

Though it is Easter Week and therefore supersedes the feast of the holy Bishop and Doctor of the Church St. Isidore of Seville, April 4 is the traditional feast of this ohly cleric born in the middle of the sixth century when the Arian heresy was in full force. Like today's remnant, he resisted going along with the crowd and held true to the constituted evangelic traditions and the purity of the orthodox faith despite the pull of the world, the flesh and the devil. In a time regarded as the beginning of the Dark Ages, he beamed the brilliant light of Christ's Truths wherever he could. It brings to mind that nearly fifteen centuries later, God's one True Church and His teachings are being squeezed from the collective consciousness of souls and, other than prayer, the chief means of communicating to so many lost souls is through the phenomenon known today as Social Media which incorporates the internet, texting, cell phones and twitter. It is through these mediums that traditional outlets such as ours has been able to reach out to the four corners of the world as Christ asks and as St. Isidore attempted in nourishing and harvesting souls for he was truly the Guardian and Gardener of the Faith

Eleven years after the Ascension of our Blessed Lord, Saint Peter who had been appointed the head of the Church on earth by Christ Himself, transferred the seat of the Papacy from Antioch to Rome, where he preached the Faith and established his episcopal chair, and there the Bishops of Rome have been ever since accounted his successors. The feast of the Chair of St. Peter is that of the foundation of the See of Rome. ...More

Karl D. Keller wants the faithful to know that, contrary to what you might have believed, there is a misnomer in the title of the apparition in Quito, Ecuador that prior to now has been known as "Our Lady of Good Success", but the title is misleading for the Blessed Virgin Mary herself has foretold what the title truly means, just as she imparted to Mother Mariana in the 17th Century of a time about the 20th and early 21st Century in which we are currently living now. The Spanish translation shows that what Our Lady is pointing to is a Great Event and what would be a greater event than Mary's Immaculate Heart triumphing so that a greater triumph - that of her divine Son's return can be realized. But she needs our help to effect this - our prayers, Rosaries, dedication to the true Church in this time of the Great Apostasy, and we are encouraged to pray her Little Office to keep us ever vigilant as Karl Keller explains in his mission to spread the word on the true meaning of Our Lady of the Great Event - Nuestra Señora del Buen Suceso. Karl explains in part one of a multi-series on Our Lady of the Great Event

The conclusion today of the baptismal celebrations calls the neophytes together again in the Lateran Basilica beside the font in which on Easter Eve they were born to newness of life. Today's stational liturgy seems to be influenced more than ever by the thought of purity and innocence, like a loving mother carried away by the beauty of her newborn child. On this day in the early Roman Liturgy the Pope used to distribute to the people the Agnus Dei of the blessed wax mixed with ...More

His Excellency Bishop Richard Williamson's Eleison Comment from Maundy Thursday, the day Our Lord instituted the Sacrament of Holy Eucharist and made priests of His apostles, is a warning. As a true shepherd, Bishop Williamson reaches out to those priests still within the confines of the Society of St. Pius X to warn them of the dire direction they are heading if they stubbornly cling to the path laid out by Bishop Bernard Fellay who seeks conciliation with the CONciLIAR church. Just as they evidently did not learn from Campos and recent defections, so also they don't seem to realize what is contained in the Doctrinal Declaration that basically sells out Catholic Truth and all Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre fought for. His Excellency pulls no punches in informing the priests of the disastrous direction Fellay has taken the Society. Turn back now or it will be curtains for the SSPX, which will be swallowed into the great monster known as the CONciLIAR church which has eclipsed the True Church as he describes in his piece from Holy Saturday as well, but shedding hope that has been foretold by Our Lady of La Salette and at Fatima. He lays out the traps in how the devil is in the details and never to give up hope in his OPEN LETTER TO PRIESTS of the SOCIETY of ST. PIUS X

The Fatima Prayers
My God, I believe, I adore, I trust and I love Thee; and I beg pardon for those who do not believe, do not adore, do not trust, and do not love Thee.
(repeat the above 3 times then bow your head in reciting the following:)

    O Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Ghost, I adore Thee profoundly. I offer Thee the most Precious Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of Jesus Christ, present in tabernacles throughout the world, in reparation for the outrages, sacrileges and indifference by which He is offended. By the infinite merits of the Sacred Heart of Jesus, in unison with the Immaculate Heart of Mary, I beg the conversion of poor sinners.

    O Most Holy Trinity, I addore Thee! My God, my God, I love Thee in the Most Blessed Sacrament!

    O my Jesus, it is for love of Thee, in reparation for the offenses committed against the Immaculate Heart of Mary and for the conversion of poor sinners.
