Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira

A Gate of Heaven Opened for the World

The apparitions of the Blessed Virgin to St. Catherine Labouré took place in 1830. The most important of them was on November 27, when Mary revealed the treasure of heavenly gifts destined for the world with the spreading of the Miraculous Medal. We must remember that, at that time, along …

Dona Lucilia

“I decided to implore Dona Lucilia’s intercession”

During her earthly life, Dona Lucilia always showed compassion for her neighbour by earnestly seeking to resolve the problems of anyone who turned to her. Today, from eternity, she continues to be a tireless protector of those most in need of help. One only needs to place a problem in …

Mary, God’s Paradise

Consecrated to the Service of the Temple

The journey from Nazareth to the Holy City took three or four days. At any time of the year it was common to find families or groups of pilgrims on the roads of Israel, going up to Jerusalem or returning from it. With her attention always on the future Messiah …

Father, Guide and Protector of the Virgin

Among the countless graces that the Father bestowed on His beloved Daughter during her time in the Temple, the relationship with Simeon stands out.

The Voice of the Popes

A Large Salutary Wave that Penetrates Purgatory
Since, by its nature, the unbloody Sacrifice of the Altar is in no way different from the Sacrifice of the Cross, it not only brings glory to the inhabitants of Heaven and serves as a salutary remedy for those still in the miseries of this life, but it is also …

“No One Becomes Great Overnight”
How often do we have the opportunity to admire the wonders of the plant world, enjoying their fruits and perfumes. However, we seldom consider the thousand “difficulties” that the plant went through to reach that stage: the seed died, adapted to the soil, became a small sprout, survived the bad …

A New Pandemic: the Intolerance of the “Tolerant”
“If they persecuted Me, they will persecute you,” Jesus said to His disciples. It is not surprising, then, that anti-Christian hate crimes are on the rise in various parts of the world. In China, the government continues to eliminate the symbols of our religion. In Anhui province alone, over five …

When Did Man “Invent” God?
There are all sorts of debates. Some are sudden and momentary, the result of spontaneity, a temperamental outburst or immaturity. There are other, interminable ones, in which the representatives of both sides continue the discussion one generation after another. Arguments are finely honed, syllogisms are dismantled, but there is no …

Queen, Mother and Advocate of Sinners

Gospel Commentary

Christ the King and the Secret of Mary

St. Hilda of Whitby - A Mother and Guide of the English
As we contemplate the half-ruined walls of the famous Whitby Abbey in England, we are reminded of the words that Dr. Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira wrote as the epigraph of his life: “When still very young, I marvelled at the ruins of Christendom, gave them my heart, turned my back …

God’s Symphony and Our Only Hope
The work of creation resembles a symphony: unified and harmonious, but with diverse rhythms and movements. At times, humanity seems immersed in a melancholic adagio; at other times, in a pleasant andante. In contemplating this divine musical piece, man places himself in the expectation of a majestic finale. How will …

Obedience Is the Best Route
“It was May 6, 1503. The water was particularly cold that night. Contrary to predictions, our vessel had been caught in a terrible storm. Now, tossed into the violent waves, I searched in vain for some floating object that might help to buoy me up. My strength and hope were …
