Living Image of Another Mother: the Holy Church

Dr. Plinio was introduced to the ways of the Gospel and the sublime horizons of the Catholic religion by a living example, present before him at home: Dona Lucilia. From this “book” he learned what innocence, holiness, intransigence, prudence and wisdom are; it was in his mother that he best …

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 …

What seemed to be the end was really the beginning…

April 21, 1968. Dona Lucilia Ribeiro dos Santos Corrêa de Oliveira lay in her apartment on her deathbed. The young Dr. Luiz Moreira Duncan, a friend of her son, Dr. Plinio, was in attendance since her private doctor, the eminent Dr. Abrahão Brickman, was out. Around 10 o’clock in the …

Truly Catholic Wife and Mother

The married state produced a marked deepening of Dona Lucilia’s supernatural spirit. Her soul became increasingly refined as hardships, sorrows, and illnesses multiplied. Faithful to her earlier custom, she would fold her hands and lift her eyes to the Sacred Heart of Jesus, beseeching Him, through the intercession of her …

Aided by a Mother

We sometimes tend to think that, in order to be answered in prayer, we must formulate long and elaborate requests. However, the Saviour’s teaching is quite different: “And in praying do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do; for they think that they will be heard for their …

Excellent Educator, Loving Mother

Dona Lucilia’s words were never empty of meaning and appeal. However, even more than by her words, it was through her attitude and way of being that she instilled in others, especially in her children, the desire to do good and to follow the path of moral perfection. A living …

Boundless Maternal Solicitude

“Never was it known that anyone who fled to thy protection, implored thy help, or sought thine intercession was left unaided.” These words from the Memorare could also be applied to a great devotee of Our Lady like Dona Lucilia, always ready to maternally welcome those who come to take …

The Reward for Having Faith

“Be fruitful and multiply, and fill the earth” (Gn 1:28), the Lord preached to our first parents, certifying that the generation of offspring is the main objective of the institution of marriage. For this reason, we can well imagine how hard it is for a God-fearing couple to be deprived …

A Lady from Better Times

With the end of the war in 1918, a period that would be dubbed by historians as Entre deux Guerres1 began. The harmonic chords of the waltz were replaced by the strident and cacophonous sounds of jazz. The staid and solemn horse-drawn carriage gave way, once and for all, to …

Unfailing Maternal Help

As time goes on, Dona Lucilia has been obtaining more and more surprising favours for those who, regardless of the situation in which they find themselves, turn to her with true faith and confidence in her intercession. Dona Lucilia and her great-grandson in 1956 This is what happened to Luciana …
