Precious Lessons from the Resurrection

In the three days during which Our Lord lay dead, all seemed irremediably lost in the eyes of those who had known Him, with the exception of Mary Most Holy. “He died!” they thought. “They have rolled a stone over the entrance to the sepulchre, and darkness envelopes His Body. …

Dona Lucilia


Spiritual Composure

Dona Lucilia’s conformity with the spirit of the Church made her a loyal fulfiller of its religious practices. In those bygone days of the 1920s, still fragranced with the sweet aroma of St. Pius X’s beneficial presence on the Pontifical Throne, she loved the sacral splendour with which the Liturgy …

The Voice of the Popes


God Will Provide the Final Victory!

Benevolence, Goodness and Affection

In the last months of Dona Lucilia’s earthly life, there was visible manifestation of the gifts with which Providence had so generously adorned her childhood, and which she had made to so profusely blossom and bear fruit throughout her life. It was easy to observe, in her beautiful soul, the …

Emmanuele Brunatto - Persecuting the Persecutors of Padre Pio

Perhaps there was no place in the Europe of 1919 that surpassed Gargano in peace and tranquillity, a promontory which harmonized both the ruggedness and the innocence of landscapes hardly touched by human hands. Atop the rock looking out on the Adriatic Sea, from which the picturesque village of San …

“I’ll become a famous nun!”

In the 21st century, more than two thousand years after the supreme Sacrifice on Calvary, holiness is often thought to be a passé ideal, incompatible with life in today’s world, unattainable in the midst of globalization, unthinkable in the world of instant messaging and social networks. This is what a …

The Trial of Our Lord Jesus Christ - The Encounter Between Two Pontiffs

Turning the pages of the Gospels, we are moved when we contemplate the marvels Our Saviour accomplished when He “became flesh and dwelt among us” (Jn 1:14). Impelled by infinite love, He brought us the Good News and confirmed it by countless miracles, not limited to restoring a natural well-being …

Conformism or Intransigence?

Conformism… A deplorable mentality at the root of so many disasters throughout history! It turned Lot’s wife into a statue of salt (cf. Gn 19:26), it led Aaron to make a golden calf at the foot of Horeb (cf. Ex 32:1-6), it brought divine reproof upon the piest Heli (cf. …

Countless reports of natural or man-made disasters, including floods, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, fires, illnesses, attacks and wars, have alarmed the world in recent times.

Lives of the Saints


St. John Baptist de La Salle - The Jordan of Grace

Man’s life is like the field grasses that fourish in the morning but wither away in the evening; its memory passes like a garment that is changed (cf. Ps 90:6; 102:26). But there are those who leave an indelible wake behind them, marking the centuries: the Saints. And among this …

May Whoever Looks at Me See You

A lthough she was a model in everything – writes a sister who had been a novice together with Maria Teresa González-Quevedo – I believe that the predominant note of her life was her devotion to Our Lady. She loved Her passionately, talked about Her at every recreation, found in …

“Kintsugi” and the Art of Divine Pardon

We live in a society that has become accustomed to the disposable, the practical and the ephemeral, and which is, as a consequence, increasingly unconcerned with beauty, the sublime and the enduring. For this reason, it may be difficult for us to appreciate a certain oriental art form, kintsugi, which …
