Our twenty-first century appears to be more and more an age of “digital dependence”. From computers to tablets and smartphones, screens have been invading our daily life, up to the point that it seems that we need them for everything. We must confess that many of us are addicted to this digital culture. For sure, new technologies could be used to access books that are out-of-print or would be difficult to find but, to be honest, few are the people who spend their time reading the complete works of St. Augustine or St. Thomas Aquinas on Kindle! According to a study1 posted on the Pew Research Center website early this year, about a quarter of American adults (24%) say they haven’t read a book in whole or in part in the past year, whether in print, electronic or audio form. Because people don’t read, they are more vulnerable to follow the liberal propaganda which is being constantly hammered by the mainstream media. In the past, the Church was strong to fight against Liberalism, but what’s about now? Since the recognition of the principle of Religious Liberty during the Council Vatican II, liberal ideas invaded our Holy Mother the Church. The latest blow came from the final document of the recent Synod of the Youth, which makes references to “paths of accompaniment in the faith of homosexual persons” and speaks of these paths helping these persons “to recognize the desire to belong to and contribute to the life of the community; and to discern the best ways of achieving it.” How is it possible to have high ranked prelates who could give approval to such evil agenda? It is because of the whole scale spread of Liberalism within the Church, along with the lack of prayer and the loss of the spirit of sacrifice. On our side, what will be our answer? Put everything back in place, both in the soul as well as in the body, by means of prayer life, good reading and the practice of sacrifice in our daily life. This season of Advent is a good time to start put into practice that agenda. Let me take the occasion to promote the books of Fr. Denis Fahey, recently republished by Loreto Publications. Fr. Fahey was the most famous English writer about the doctrine of the Kingship of Christ, which is the true remedy against Liberalism. On behalf of the communities of St. Michael’s Priory and Our Lady of Mount Carmel Academy, all my best wishes for Christmas! Fr.

Christmas Season and Sunday Shopping By the late John Vennari The time in which most Christmas shopping takes place is not really the Christmas Season, but the Advent Season. Christmas Season begins on the first Vespers of Christmas and continues to Epiphany; otherwise known as the Twelve Days of Christmas. This deformation of terminology brought about by modern commercialism reflects more of the pagan spirit rather than the true Catholic spirit as communicated by the Liturgical Year. As we now enter a period of increased buying and selling, it is opportune to remind ourselves to be wary of another pagan practice rampant in the modern world: Sunday shopping. This common profanation of Sunday, which only increases during the Christmas shopping season, should not be taken lightly. In the 19th Century, Heaven sent two dire warnings against this offense, making clear that Our Lord regards this as a serious sin deserving of severe chastisement. The first warning came through Sister Marie de Sainte-Pierre, whom Our Lord revealed the Devotion to His Holy Face. The second came through Our Lady of La Salette. Both of these revelations from Heaven enjoy the full approval of the Catholic Church. “The Holy Day of the Lord Profaned” On Nov. 24, 1843, Our Lord said the following to Sister Marie de Saint-Pierre, a French Carmelite nun: “The earth is covered with crimes. The violation of the first three Commandments of God has irritated My Father. The Holy Name of God blasphemed, and the Holy Day of the Lord profaned, fills up the measure of iniquities. These sins have risen unto the Throne of God and provoked His wrath which will soon burst forth if His justice be not appeased. At no time have these crimes reached such a pitch.” Elsewhere, Our Lord complained to Sister Marie de Saint-Pierre of the massive amount of blasphemy taking place on earth. He said, “My Name is everywhere blasphemed. Even children blaspheme.” Sister Marie de Saint-Pierre went on to explain, “Blasphemy is a poisoned arrow ever wounding His Divine Heart. He told me that He wishes to give me a Golden Arrow wherewith to wound His Heart delightfully and heal these wounds inflicted by the sinners’ malice.” This is the origin of the popular prayer, The Golden Arrow, that Heaven wished Catholics to recite often: “May the Most Holy, Most Sacred, Most Adorable, Most Mysterious and Unutterable Name of God be praised, blessed, loved, adored and glorified, in Heaven, on earth, and in the hells, by all God’s creatures, and by the Sacred Heart of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ in the Most Holy Sacrament of the Altar. Amen.” Sister de Saint- Pierre said, “Our Lord having given me this Golden Arrow said, ‘avail yourself of this, for I shall demand an account from you.’.’ At that moment I beheld issuing from the Sacred Heart of Jesus pierced by this arrow a torrent of grace of sinners.” Communion of Reparation for Profanation of Sunday Along with this prayer in reparation for blasphemy, Our Lord told Sister de Saint-Pierre about the need to appease the Divine Justice aroused by reason of the desecration of Sunday. The heart of the message can be summarized in the following words of Sister de Saint-Pierre: “... Our Lord commanded me to receive Holy Communion every Sunday for these three particular intentions: 1) In a spirit of atoning for all forbidden works done on Sunday, which as holy days are to be sanctified. 2) To appease Divine Justice which was on the very verge of striking on account of the profanation of holy days. 3) To implore the conversion of those sinners who desecrate Sundays, and to succeed in obtaining the cessation of forbidden Sunday Labor. Our Lord asked for the establishment of a special Archconfraternity in reparation for blasphemy and profanation of work on Sunday. Our Lord Himself called this “the most beautiful work under the sun.” This Archconfraternity of the Holy Face was later approved by Pope Leo XIII in 1885. Second and Third Commandments For a quick review of the do’s and don’ts regarding the Second and Third Commandments, here is a quick summary of what we find in pre-Vatican II catechisms.

  • The Real Beginning of the Various Christian Research Organisations
    § 16.2 Christian Research Associations Page 1 he real beginning of the various Christian research organisations which flourished across the Western world at the end T of the 20th century and early 21st century was in the 1960s, a little behind the secular market research world which had its tentative start in the 1930s, but only really got under way in the 1950s after the War ended. Christian research organisations started through a manager in an aeronautical engineering company in Los Angeles in the late 1940s, who began to feel the Lord calling him into full-time service in the early 1960s. Accordingly Edward Dayton, always abbreviated to Ed, attended Fuller Theological Seminary and then began to ask questions such as, “Who is applying management theory and practice to Christian organisations?” Given the opportunity by his friend Ted Engstrom, the long-serving Vice President of World Vision (WV), to take a room in his Los Angeles office, Ed did so, and over the course of the next year (1967) began an organisation called Missions Advanced Research and Communications Centre (abbreviated to MARC, with one C, not two, at the end). Over the next few years, under Ed’s influence, MARC expanded. He led it to develop in three broad areas: !He began to research the Christian populations of many countries, initially those in which World Vision was working, updating and extending the work previously done by Sir Kenneth Grubb and others published in the World Christian Handbook in 1957, 1962 and 1968; !He began suggesting that mission agencies move away from the old “comity” arrangement whereby one particular mission would be primarily responsible for evangelism and Christian community work in a given area or country, to the concept of working with particular groups of people; !He began helping Christian organisations with management theory and ran courses on subjects like Time Management.

  • Jews, Radical Catholic Traditionalists, and the Extreme Right
    “Artisans … for Antichrist”: Jews, Radical Catholic Traditionalists, and the Extreme Right Mark Weitzman* The Israeli historian, Israel J. Yuval, recently wrote: The Christian-Jewish debate that started nineteen hundred years ago, in our day came to a conciliatory close. … In one fell swoop, the anti-Jewish position of Christianity became reprehensible and illegitimate. … Ours is thus the first generation of scholars that can and may discuss the Christian-Jewish debate from a certain remove … a post- polemical age.1 This appraisal helped spur Yuval to write his recent controversial book Two Nations in Your Womb: Perceptions of Jews and Christians in late Antiquity and the Middle Ages. Yuval based his optimistic assessment on the strength of the reforms in Catholicism that stemmed from the adoption by the Second Vatican Council in 1965 of the document known as Nostra Aetate. Nostra Aetate in Michael Phayer’s words, was the “revolution- ary” document that signified “the Catholic church’s reversal of its 2,000 year tradition of antisemitism.”2 Yet recent events in the relationship between Catholics and Jews could well cause one to wonder about the optimism inherent in Yuval’s pronouncement. For, while the established Catholic Church is still officially committed to the teachings of Nostra Aetate, the opponents of that document and of “modernity” in general have continued their fight and appear to have gained, if not a foothold, at least a hearing in the Vatican today. And, since in the view of these radical Catholic traditionalists “[i]nternational Judaism wants to radically defeat Christianity and to be its substitute” using tools like the Free- * Director of Government Affairs, Simon Wiesenthal Center.

Portier, Ph.D. In its analysis of mystical body of Christ theology in the twentieth century, this dissertation identifies three major streams of mystical body theology operative in the early part of the century: the Roman, the German-Romantic, and the French-Social- Liturgical. Delineating these three streams of mystical body theology sheds light on the diversity of scholarly positions concerning the heritage of mystical body theology, on its mid twentieth-century recession, as well as on Pope Pius XII’s 1943 encyclical, Mystici Corporis Christi, which enshrined “mystical body of Christ” in Catholic magisterial teaching. Further, it links the work of Virgil Michel and Louis-Marie Chauvet, two scholars remote from each other on several fronts, in the long, winding French stream.

  • Special Victorian Christmas Announcement
    Special Victorian Christmas Announcement Tonight is the last night for our 32nd Annual Victorian Christmas, and even with the rainy forecast the show must go on! Event organizers have revamped tonight's celebration to allow the event to continue with some modifications. Please plan to join us where it's safe and dry inside the Municipal Building and Auditorium located at 144 E. Jackson St. Inside, children can visit with St. Nick and enjoy crafts provided by the Thomas County Public Library. The Junior Service League's Children's Christmas Shop will also be inside along with the Thomasville History Center's Christmas card station. There will be some entertainment inside including stilt walkers roaming the halls. Lastly, all community acts that were scheduled for the amphitheater tonight will be performing instead at the Municipal Auditorium. For more information, please click here. Blueprint: 2028 Continues with Code Update Blueprint:Thomasville 2028 was unanimously approved by Thomasville City Council in July of this year. Building on the confidence, momentum and energy created during the comprehensive planning process, the focus now shifts to implementation. That initiative, according to City planners, will begin next month when a 12-18 month process kicks off that will address Thomasville's development code. The goal is to utilize a public process that will educate the community on the importance of code updates while also illustrating how this builds upon the vision set by the community during the initial Blueprint process. Through our comprehensive planning, a review of the City's development codes found that there were several inconsistencies in need of a full update.
