Ave Maria Meditations

Act Of Consecration of the Human Race to the Sacred Heart Of Jesus

by Pope Pius XI

Most sweet Jesus, Redeemer of the human race, look down upon us, humbly prostrate before Thine altar. We are Thine and Thine we wish to be; but to be more surely united with Thee, behold each one of us freely consecrates himself today to Thy Most Sacred Heart.

Many, indeed, have never known Thee; many, too, despising Thy precepts, have rejected Thee. Have mercy on them all, most merciful Jesus, and draw them to Thy Sacred Heart.

Be Thou King, O Lord, not only of the faithful who have never forsaken Thee, but also of the prodigal children who have abandoned Thee, grant that they may quickly return to their Father’s house, lest they die of wretchedness and hunger.

Be Thou King of those who are deceived by erroneous opinions, or whom discord keeps aloof and call them back to the harbor of truth and unity of faith, so that soon there may be but one flock and one shepherd.

Be Thou King of all those who even now sit in the shadow of idolatry or Islam, and refuse not Thou to bring them into the light of Thy kingdom. Look, finally, with eyes of pity upon the children of that race, which was for so long a time Thy chosen people; and let Thy Blood, which was once invoked upon them in vengeance, now descend upon them also in a cleansing flood of redemption and eternal life.

Grant, O Lord, to Thy Church, assurance of freedom and immunity from harm; give peace and order to all nations, and make the earth resound from pole to pole with one cry: Praise to the Divine Heart that wrought our salvation: to it be glory and honor forever. Amen.

12 – July 13th – THE SECOND SECRET

apostolate — Wed, 12 Jul 2017 19:18:29 +0000

Ave Maria!

The July 13th apparition and message contain the great warning of Fatima: war and the spread of Russia’s errors throughout the world. The warning was conditional on the response to Our Lady’s requests. However, much of the prophetic warning has already come to pass, indicating that the response was not sufficient. What may be worse, the annihilation of entire nations could yet come to pass–unless the faithful enact Our Lady’s “peace plan.”

Augustine and Monica: Sign of Complementarity, not Conflict – Aug 28 – Homily – Fr Matthias

apostolate — Wed, 28 Aug 2019 14:44:08 +0000

On the memorial of St. Augustine (Bishop and Doctor of the Church, Aug 28, 2019), Fr. Matthias reflects on the relationship between this extraordinary saint and his saintly mother, Monica (Aug 27). These exemplary saints reflect the proper relationship of women and men to the Church, and the natural role and social function of each of the sexes, per God’s design for human society.

A proper understanding of and appreciation for the complementarity and diversity of the sexes can restore Church and society to a state of health and harmony, and overcome the fabricated tensions of the destructive socialistic view of humanity.

“For if the man is the head, the woman is the heart, and as he occupies the chief place in ruling, so she may and ought to claim for herself the chief place in love.” Pope Pius XI, Casti Connubii (https://w2.vatican.va/content/pius-xi/en/encyclicals/documents/hf_p-xi_enc_19301231_casti-connubii.html)
