Patronage pork butchers Borgomasino, Italy Readings After six days Jesus took Peter, James, and John his brother, and led them up a high mountain by themselves.

The Winnipeg Statement was an influential and controversial pastoral letter issued by the Canadian Conference of Catholic Bishops (CCCB) on September 27, 1968. Released during a plenary assembly in St. Boniface, Winnipeg, Manitoba, the document served as the Canadian hierarchy's official response to Pope Paul VI’s papal encyclical, Humanae vitae, which reaffirmed the Catholic Church's absolute prohibition on artificial birth control. [1] The statement became a historical milestone due to its unique stance on individual conscience, which many interpreted as a departure or dissent from official Vatican teaching.

Saint of the Day, August 6, 1965 by Plinio Corrêa de Oliveira August 6 is the feast of the Transfiguration of Our Lord Jesus Christ. On this day, the first church on Mount Tabor was dedicated. Tradition has it that Mount Tabor was the “high mountain” described in the Gospel as the site of the Transfiguration. In 1457, Pope Callistus III ordered this feast to be solemnly celebrated throughout Christendom in thanksgiving for the defeat of the Turks in Belgrade, especially due to the heroic efforts of Saint John of Capistrano. The novena to Our Lady of the Assumption also begins on this day. We all know the Gospel episode in which the Lord goes up with Peter, James and John to the top of Mount Tabor. At a certain moment, He manifests Himself in all His glory with Moses on one side and Elijah, our spiritual father, on the other. The disciples are so enthralled with His glory that they express a desire to remain there. However, this external manifestation of glory gradually diminishes as the …More
Vladimir Putin took part in the plenary session of the IX St. Petersburg International Cultural Forum – the Forum of United Cultures. Italian Publisher complaining to Putin about his country and how things are suppressed, how he no longer is invited by publishers as a political scientist. That we have the most severe censorship anywhere of speaking as a patriot. Then pleads with Putin later on about helping to save and publish literature. I want to ask our rulers such a question and there are no need for enemies. We not only provide Ukraine with weapons, we pay 12 million in pensions to pensioners in Ukraine every month. He went on to complain about other things going on. I know Putin is called King of Russia, Prince of Russia, The last Emperor of Russia, Father and Grandfather not only in Russia but around the world. But they need to give him a break. He is only one man. It's time to give the man a break. Crazy how many people around the world look up to him and love him. And how he …More
[Saint Albert the Great – Albertus Magnus – XIII Century AD; born: Duchy of Bavaria/died: Cologne, Holy Roman Empire; (Aged ca 80); German Dominican friar, philosopher, scientist, and bishop; one of the greatest medieval philosophers and thinkers; Doctor of the Church] Chapter 10 ~ That one should not be concerned about feeling tangible devotion so much as about cleaving to God with one's will Furthermore you should not be much concerned about tangible devotion, the experience of sweetness or tears, but rather that you should be mentally united with God within yourself by a good will in your intellect. For what pleases God above everything is a mind free from imaginations that is images, ideas and the representations of created things. It befits a monk to be indifferent to everything created so that he can turn easily and barely to God alone within himself, be empty for him and cleave to him. For this reason deny yourself so that you can follow Christ, the Lord your God, in nakedness, …More

[Saint Catherine of Genoa ~ XV-XVI Century; born: Genoa, Republic of Genoa/ died: Genoa, Republic of Genoa; (aged 62-63); Mystic; Spiritual Writer] Chapter XIII ~ HOW THE SOULS IN PURGATORY ARE NO LONGER IN A STATE TO MERIT, AND HOW THEY REGARD THE CHARITY EXERCISED IN THE WORLD FOR THEM. IF the souls in purgatory could purge themselves of their stains by contrition, they would in a single instant discharge all their debt, so ardent and so impetuous an act would they make, seeing in so clear a light the effects of the impediment which hinders them from attaining to their end, which is God, the object of their love. And be assured that the souls have to pay what they owe even to the uttermost farthing : this is God's decree, to satisfy the demands of justice. As to the souls themselves, they have no choice of their own in the matter ; they see nothing but God's will ; nor do they wish otherwise, because they have been so determined. They would not care for alms contributed by the living …More
"THESE souls are so closely united, so transformed into the will of God, that in all things they are satisfied with His most holy decree ; and were a soul presented before God with ever so little to purge away, it would suffer grievous hurt and a torment worse than ten purgatories."
The fake Church is quicky transforming itself into a quasi-demonic institution. The real Church has been going underground, where She will survive and continue to grow.
Wednesday, 6th August 1913 Ignorance of Negro Witnesses Helps Them When on the Stand, The Atlanta Constitution Atlanta Constitution August 6th, 1913 By Britt Craig. Sometimes it is lucky to be ignorant. Most people don't believe this, but it has been proven true in the cases of Newt Lee and Jim Conley in facing the nerve-racking cross-examination of Luther Rosser. The average white man in Jim's fix would last just several minutes it is likely - perhaps even less. And if he were a cigarette fiend– There have been many interesting features to the Frank trial but chief of them all is the manner in which these two negroes have stood grilling of attorneys for the defense proving themselves the sturdiest witnesses presented by the state. Jim Has No Cares. Equipped for the ordeal by a bath from a fire hose, a clean shirt and a shaved head, Jim Conley faced Mr. Rosser on Monday afternoon without a nerve in his [1 word illegible], with hardly a worry and no idea of what would happen, save that …More

"PSALM 39 Expecting, I have expected thy grace: and thou hast done with me according to the multitude of the mercies of thy name. Thou hast heard my prayers: and thou hast led me out of the den of misery, and from the pit of the enemy. Manifold and wonderful are thy gifts, O Lady: incomparable are the gifts of thy graces. Let all those exult and rejoice in thee who love thee: let them who have hated thy name, fall into hell. Blessed be thou forever, O Lady: forever, world without end. Glory be to the Father, etc."

By thy sweetness my soul was melted: my bowels are inflamed by thy love. Hear my prayer, O Lady, and my supplication: and let mine enemies pine away.
