- Prosper of Aquitaine (+c.455), De gratia Dei et libero arbitrio contra Collatorem 22.61

“He [Satan] will set up a counter-Church which will be the ape of the Church because, he the devil, is the ape of God. It will have all the notes and characteristics of the Church, but in reverse and emptied of its divine content. It will be a mystical body of the anti-Christ that will in all externals resemble the mystical body of Christ. In desperate need for God, whom he nevertheless refuses to adore, modern man in his loneliness and frustration will hunger more and more for membership in a community that will give him enlargement of purpose, but at the cost of losing himself in some vague collectivity.”
“Who is going to save our Church? Not our bishops, not our priests and religious. It is up to you, the people. You have the minds, the eyes, and the ears to save the Church. Your mission is to see that your priests act like priests, your bishops act like bishops.”
- Fulton Sheen

"But if, in any layman who is indeed imbued with literature, ignorance of the Latin language, which we can truly call the 'catholic' language, indicates a certain sluggishness in his love toward the Church, how much more fitting it is that each and every cleric should be adequately practiced and skilled in that language!" - Pius XI
"Let us realize that this remark of Cicero (Brutus 37, 140) can be in a certain way referred to [young lay people]: 'It is not so much a matter of distinction to know Latin as it is disgraceful not to know it.'" - St. John Paul II
Grant unto thy Church, we beseech Thee, O merciful God, that She, being gathered together by the Holy Ghost, may be in no wise troubled by attack from her foes. O God, who by sin art offended and by penance pacified, mercifully regard the prayers of Thy people making supplication unto Thee,and turn away the scourges of Thine anger which we deserve for our sins. Almighty and Everlasting God, in whose Hand are the power and the government of every realm: look down upon and help the Christian people that the heathen nations who trust in the fierceness of their own might may be crushed by the power of thine Arm. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end. R. Amen.

Prayer Before Using The Internet HERE
Almighty and eternal God, who created us in Thine image and bade us to seek after all that is good, true and beautiful, especially in the divine person of Thine Only-begotten Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, grant, we beseech Thee, that, through the intercession of Saint Isidore, Bishop and Doctor, during our journeys through the internet we will direct our hands and eyes only to that which is pleasing to Thee and treat with charity and patience all those souls whom we encounter. Through Christ our Lord. Amen.
As a full blooded Sicilian, I take great offense to this. God forgives, Sicilians don’t.
I’m so proud of the Sicilian priests! What better way to show Francis have they have renounced their lace than with a show of power!? Look at all that lace! And now Francis has a beautiful new car.
Oh man! That’s awesome. :^)
I really did LOL, Fr. Z.
If you recall about a week ago, I told the story of Bishop McButterpants’ lamenting the loss of his secret lace when Chester became angry with him.
I’m happy to report that he has expressed pride in being able to donate the usable remnants of said lace to the Holy Father’s automobile.
Another rumor has surfaced that a canon lawyer wrote up a restraining order against Chester, preventing him from entering the vehicle. The case is currently in legal limbo due to the fact Chester is a dog.
Bishop McButterpants has already submitted a request to Rome that he not be held responsible should Chester trespass into the vehicle and have another session of using lace as a homemade chew toy.
The Holy Father has expressed overwhelming approval of Bishop McButterpants’ non-binary therapist, so “they” should serve as a great advocate should the worst happen.
Oh my!
God Bless You :-)
Thank you, Father, for my first LOL of the day!
God help us all
