Queen of God and of Men!

W hat is the foundation of Our Lady’s royalty? Why is She Queen? In what does this title consist? First of all, we must consider that it befits a king to be the son of a queen. Now since Our Lord Jesus Christ is King of all men, both as …

Dona Lucilia


A Lamp at the Feet of the Sacred Heart of Jesus

With the advancing years, Dona Lucilia was naturally obliged to curtail her domestic duties, little by little, as her strength waned. But she did not give way to inactivity; and she filled her free moments with her preferred occupation: prayer – that quiet company kept with the Sacred Heart of …

A Man in the Fullest Sense of the Term

St. Louis IX, King of France, represented, with a plenitude that rarely appears in history, the Catholic man as the Church wants him to be, the layman living in the world and taking his fulfilment of the Commandments of God’s Law to the highest perfection. In this manner, while mixed …

The Gest of Captain Palacios - Before the Enemies of the Church, Fidelity and Honour!

A mid the mysterious and profound reflections of the Book of Psalms, we come upon a question that we Catholics could well make our own in the face of the storms that currently assail the flock of the Lord’s anointed (cf. 1 Jn 2:27), the Holy Catholic Church: “Why do …

Natural Law - The Oldest Written Law

All creation is governed by laws. From the smallest microscopic organism to the most immense galaxy – to limit ourselves exclusively to the material universe – creatures are subject to immutable principles, and this order is what makes their existence possible.

God’s Cantor at the Height of Humanism

A midst the Carrara marble and Michelangelo’s frescoes, the Sistine Chapel hides a lesser-known treasure. It is a discreet gem, rendered not in fine paint but in rustic graphite. Its lines have nothing of Raphael’s elegant panels or Bernini’s monumental designs. It is a simple signature: Josquini. Not infrequently, restorers …

Lives of the Saints


St. Pius X - Great Pope of History, Great Saint of the Church

The Divine Master used an excellent method of teaching. He attracted the multitudes through actions and words, He unmasked the errors of the Pharisees with wisdom, and He evangelized through parables, always replete with examples taken from daily life. A recurring symbolism in the Gospels is that of the stone …
