Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira

“Save Me, Holy Queen!”

I had a habit of getting up late on Sundays, but that day I got up very early because I was no longer tired and could not sleep any more. So I decided to go to Mass at the Salesian church – the Shrine of the Sacred Heart of Jesus …

Dona Lucilia

Kind Protection in Every Need

More than simply helping with difficulties or solving some intricate problem, Dona Lucilia’s maternal action in benefit of those who come to her for help is something much deeper and more effective than what might appear at first glance. In fact, the truly Catholic mother is not one who teaches …

During the month of March, new groups of devotees of the Blessed Virgin made personal consecrations to her as slaves of love, according to the method of St. Louis-Marie Grignion de Montfort. These sessions were made up of Spanish-speaking faithful who had completed the course of Fr. Manuel Rodríguez Sancho, …

The Voice of the Popes

Generous Cooperation with the Holy Spirit

Mary is the Mother of the Church not only because She is the Mother of Christ and His most intimate associate in “the new economy when the Son of God took a human nature from her, that He might in the mysteries of His flesh free man from sin,”1 but …

Saint, King and Hero

King, and archetype of the tireless fighter, St. Ferdinand of Castile was an extraordinary example of the strong and heroic man, completed by harmonic contrasts: his soul more vigorous than his body, his impetus greater than his musculature, his ideal even greater than his impetus; and, in the pursuit of …

More Than Help of Christians: a True Friend!
When we see a representation of Our Lady under the invocation of Help of Christians, our first reaction is usually one of respect for her incomparable majesty. In fact, in this image we contemplate Mary Most Holy wearing a crown and with a sceptre in her hand, like a true …

Sins Against the Holy Spirit, According to St. Thomas - An Unforgivable Sin?
The monumental statue of Our Lord featured on one of Brazil’s most beautiful postcards, far from serving a merely aesthetic purpose, evokes sublime theological notions. The Heart on display, the exposed wounds and the open arms justify the very appropriate title that the statue bears: Christ the Redeemer. Indeed, the …

The Sacrament of Confirmation - A Church of Soldiers!
The crowd was astonished! Simple Galileans were being understood by all the foreigners in their own languages (cf. Acts 2:6-8)! And perhaps that was not what was most marvellous in the scene… It was clear that a supernatural force had taken over the words and actions of these men. Fifty …

The Divine Holy Spirit - The Love of the Father and the Son
How can we approach the infinite? How can we deal with a subject that not even the highest intelligences are capable of examining without the help of faith? In fact, the human mind and language are insufficient to explain and understand the relationship between the Father, the Son and the …

Gospel Commentary

Jesus said to Thomas, 6 “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. 7 If you know Me, then you will also know my Father. From now on you do know Him and have seen Him.” 8 Philip said …

St. Gregory VII - The Pope Who Overcame the World
A unique scene was unfolding in the fortress of Canossa, in the north of the Italian Peninsula. Three days had passed since a miserable man dressed in penitential sackcloth, barefoot in the snow and fasting from morning until night, loudly pleaded on his knees to enter the innermost part of …

Demanding with Self, Kind to Others
You must be very attentive to the little things, to the little defects; never make peace with them. Let us ask God to torment our hearts, that is, to let us feel a very vivid remorse for our small falls. Let us truly and diligently commit ourselves to doing every …

Who Is Like Unto the Spouse of the Holy Spirit?
Many theologians have pored over the subject of Our Lady, others over that of the Holy Spirit. However, very few have ventured to study her espousal with the Paraclete… In fact, it is a mystery unattainable by human intelligence, but with the inspiration of the Comforter and His Spouse, we …

The bags were finally packed and ready. Teresa and her mother were finalizing the preparations for her father’s trip. As the couple’s only child, she liked to feel how much her parents counted on her help. Her father was Dr. Timothy, a professor at the country’s top university, a renowned …

My Mother, Help Me to Fly!
“Ask the beasts, and they will teach you; the birds of the air, and they will tell you” (Jb 12:7). If a bird could speak, would we not like to ask it: “Tell us what you see in the vast expanses of the sky? What is it like to face …
