"Remove the Stones, Untie Them, Let Them Go!"
"Remove the Stones, Untie Them, Let Them Go!"
By Elizabeth Thomas
When Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead, He said to him, “Lazarus, come out!” Before then He spoke more IMPORTANT WORDS to the PEOPLE. Words He speaks to us. "Remove the stone," and then later--"untie him and let him go"--speaking of the burial cloths binding Lazarus up. *John 11 vs 39-44

This Easter, We'll Dance for Joy
This Easter, We'll Dance for Joy
By Katie Zalany
On Palm Sunday, a local church about 30 minutes away from me had outdoor rooftop confessions during coronavirus, so I went, eager to be reconciled to God before Easter. How grateful I was for this sacrament made available outdoors! During confession, the priest said something intriguing: “Remember, you’re a beautiful daughter of God and Jesus is the best dance partner.” That image made me sm

Sacrifices of Lent....Courtesy of the Coronavirus
Sacrifices of Lent....Courtesy of the Coronavirus
By Donna A Heckler
wrote a blog a few weeks ago about taking a time-out with God, courtesy of the coronavirus. As a Catholic speaker I often give a keynote address about how I was forced to take a time-out with God because of a freak leg injury and then cancer. In that first blog, I reflected on how the coronavirus was forcing all of us to take a time-out with God.

"Rejection of The Christ"
"Rejection of The Christ"
By Ralph Hathaway
As we approach the Passion of Christ our thoughts will be on the Agony in the Garden, the Scourging at the Pillar, Crowning with thorns, the carrying of his cross and being nailed to it. But that isn’t all. The obvious events with much suffering began centuries before his birth. Let us look at the historical beginning.

"Come to Me All You Who are Weary!"
"Come to Me All You Who are Weary!"
By Norman Fulkerson
I witnessed a gut-wrenching scene when I recently entered an adoration chapel in North Carolina. Like the rest of the country, there were no Masses anywhere. Thus, this chapel served as a place for local Catholics to pray and make spiritual communions.

Time to call our leaders to prayer, penance, and the Eucharist
By Julie
I just read this article from our Catholic 365: http://www.catholic365.com/article/11201/the-fear-mongering-of-satan.html# I totally agree with the author. We should stop being afraid. God has given us directives to "Fear Not".

Don't Let The Devil Win!
Don't Let The Devil Win!
By Victor S E Moubarak
The closer we come to God and the more we love Him, the more the devil fights to derail us and to tempt us away from our Faith. He tried this with Jesus several times, so we should not be much of a match for him. Prayers are always the answer to such onslaughts.

"She Shall Crush Your Head" - Our Lady's Power over the Diabolical in Our Lives
"She Shall Crush Your Head" - Our Lady's Power over the Diabolical in Our Lives
By Charles Fraune
It is here, in this passage, authoritatively interpreted by the Church into whose custody have been given the Sacred Scriptures, that we see the pronouncement of Our Lady's victory over Satan. She, in union with Her Divine Son, has "crushed the poisonous head of the most cruel serpent," the Devil, who strikes at her Son and all those who follow after Him. (Ineffabilis Deus, Pius IX, 1854).

My Plea -- Continue to Financially Support the Church
By Katie Zalany
I recognize that many of us are feeling the need to tighten up our finances right now, that there is tremendous economic suffering and uncertainty, and that some of us are experiencing unemployment or furloughed employment -- or the risk of it in the near future.

THE SIXTH SEAL--PROPHECIES FORE TOLD BY SAINTS AND MARY
By Elizabeth Thomas
When our Masses were stopped, and the churches closed due to the Covid -19 as you know my blog about "Now is the Time --to Not Fear" ---had already been published. I wondered WHY, God, why?" He reminded me that everything is for His purpose and a reason.

Saint Rosalia Patron Saint of Plagues
By Joseph Freyaldenhoven
When we first came to Sicily, we went to my paternal grandmother's village - Calatafimi. – stumping grounds of Emperor Frederick II and Garibaldi. We looked up relatives, but sadly most had migrated to the United States, as we were quickly told by the villagers. The townspeople could even spot me, by the kind of Sicilian I spoke.

A New Era
A New Era
By E.M. McCarthy
There is time when suffering comes to everyone, whether it is physical, spiritual, or emotional. Most of us do not dwell on our own death, precisely because it would prevent us from doing our daily duty.

Satan tried to give us The Darkest Sunday Ever ---Once again He Failed Miserably
Satan tried to give us The Darkest Sunday Ever ---Once again He Failed Miserably
By Larry Peterson
It is Sunday morning, March 22, 2020. What follows is simply this man pondering a morning that he never in a million years could have imagined happening. It is a Sunday morning without Mass. Yes, the Most Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is nowhere to be found. Nowhere in my town, my county, my state, or my country is Mass being offered.

I hesitate to write about the Coronavirus pandemic, because the situation changes from day to day. Whatever I write today won’t be published for a while, and so what I have to say right now will be really old news by the time anyone sees it.
