Rather than tearing a rosary apart, one can simply replace the cross with a crucifix. It's the prayers which count, the beads are just a kind of...
Someone posted this marvellous sermon on the Facebook UK Catholics page (which is usually fairly sound) and someone posted a snarky comment below....
Katfalls, thank you. On looking at the legs on the cross again, after I'd posted, I saw that the shin bone was prominent on both. So perhaps the...
When I first saw that cross I thought of PF talking of pastors smelling of the sheep, and here are plenty of sheep. I suspect that is the reason...
I was a stay-at-home mother and never regretted it. However there were times when they tested my patience.... I found the companionship of friends...
Your story really speaks to my heart. I have become convinced that one never regrets one's children, only those one didn't have. I have four...
How very sad about the little lad dying like that. I'm sure that he would have been baptised because back then babies were baptised very young,...
There were two kinds of candle: wax candles which were preferred, but were more expensive and a bit of a status symbol. The other kind were made...
I like to say the luminous mysteries. It seems such a jump to go from the finding of the child Jesus in the temple to the agony in the garden. A...
I don't think it can mean the Eucharist. The video was posted earlier this month and some of us have had lockdown for longer. In any case, I don't...
I just love Fr Jerzy. I have a picture of him in my study which came from his grave and information centre in Zoliborz. I wrote an article about...
Thak you Josephite for posting. Sr Lucia had confirmed that the Consecration of Russia by Pope St John Paul II was accepted by Heaven, and that's...
I so agree with this. I can't look at these people either. I feel a kind of dread when I see any of them which I suspect is the Spirit warning of...
If your novels are Catholic then publishers like Ignatius press might look at them. We need spiritually healthy books. Tolkien was a Catholic...
I am told that there are varying degrees of possession and that total possession is rare. One can iIMO get a feeling from looking into someone’s...
Most accounts of Sr Agnes Sasagawa's message on October 6th 2019 ["Put on ashes and pray a repentant rosary every day"] omit the feeling that she...
I am done with conspiracy theories. Honestly, they promise much and deliver nothing. As to the lookalike Hillary, if she really was at the...
I watched the new video by Taylor Marshall called Is There A Plan? He talks about the early church and what real persecution looks like. I think...
I'm also finding it hard. I'm shielding, so don't go out beyond my garden. I am saying the Divine Office, the rosary, currently finishing the...
If there were a plan to thwart this phoney inauguration at the last minute, why would anyone on Trump’s side be telling the world about it? It...
Watched this last night and found it really edifying. Anyone who has seen Frances Hogan on EWTN will be fascinated to hear her testimony. I did a...
We are retired. I had been a homemaker raising our four children, relying on my husband's income. I had always dreamed of living in the country...
If this is the Lord's will you should have complete peace about it. With current financial commitments this might work best if you move to a...
I have the book about/by Maria Simma, 'Get us out of here!'. It's a wonderful read, although the ghost writer has a bit of an agenda of his own,...
Don - in many ways I agree with you: mercy is part of our faith and much criticism of the Pope on some other forums is uncharitable and lacks...
Christy, I like the article you posted but you don't say where it is from. A search on Google and Duckduckgo both bring up distressing and...
These words touch my heart. They speak for me. I was sitting in front of the TV, I think we were watching an antiques show and I was tense and...
For a number of days we have been expecting a bombshell from Trump which hasn't happened. I'm saying the novena to Our Lady of Victory which will...
done
I believe we are in the Tribulation and have been for a while. Although demonic activity in the public square is now blatant, the 20th century is...
