If you want peace, pray the Rosary. If you want strength, pray the Rosary. If you want to stay close to Jesus, pray the Rosary.

The Doctrine of Transubstantiation __________________________________ According to Catholic Church teaching, specifically defined at the Council of Trent, transubstantiation is the change of the entire substance of the bread and wine into the entire substance of the Body and Blood of Christ during the Mass. This transformation occurs during the consecration, when the priest speaks the words of institution. The Church distinguishes between "substance" (what a thing essentially is) and "accidents" (the physical properties like appearance, taste, and smell). In this miracle: - The substance changes completely into Christ’s Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity. - The accidents of bread and wine remain physically unchanged. NB: Thus, while the elements look and taste like food, they are no longer bread and wine but the Real Presence of Jesus Christ. This is considered the "source and summit" of Catholic faith, representing a literal rather than a merely symbolic union.

You should know this as a Christian

Do you have this Saint Benedict medal? If yes, do you know the significance of the writings around it ? If not, on your notification because I will teach about it.

Let nothing disturb you,  Let nothing frighten you,  All things are passing away:  God never changes.  Patience obtains all things Whoever has God lacks nothing;  God alone suffices. Amen. - Saint Teresa of Avila

I am a convert to Catholicism. I converted in 2010. 🔥Here are a few thoughts for new converts and their ZEAL: 1. Your zeal for the faith is offensive to liberal tolerance—and this is good. 2. You’ll have 1000 opportunities to trade your zeal for being lukewarm, milquetoast—don’t. 3. Zeal is the counter virtue to acedia, and acedia is the sin of our age. 4. Err on being zealous not milquetoast, as not all opposing vices are equidistant from their virtue. 5. Zeal must be tempered by gentleness—let the fire give warmth not burns. 6. Tend the garden you’re given—raging at things outside your ambit causes burnout. 7. Remember that to a room full of timid, lukewarm souls, zeal will always appear brash and overbearing. 8. Be innocent as a dove and shrewd as a serpent—not all that burns the hearts within us must be said at all times. 9. Zeal should be bridled by humility—and the humble know themselves in God, the mirror of the soul. 10. Let your zeal always be seasoned by a love for the glory of God and the salvation of souls. Go and set the world on fire.

Your Guardian Angel: God’s Personal Protector by Your Side 🪽🙏 1. Appointed specifically for you by God Himself before you were even born. 2. Belongs to the 9th choir — the Angels — the closest to humanity and most intimately involved in our daily lives. 3. Never leaves your side, not even for a moment, through every joy, sorrow, and temptation. 4. Constantly beholds the face of the Father in heaven while watching over you (Matthew 18:10). 5.

And they are fighting for your salvation. What’s one way you’ve felt your guardian angel’s presence? Drop it below 👇 #Catholic #GuardianAngel #Faith

The Four Pillars of the Catholic Faith, as outlined in the Catechism of the Catholic Church, form the essential framework of Catholic teaching and life. They are the Creed, the Sacraments, the Moral Life, and Prayer. Together they provide a complete guide for believing, worshiping, living, and relating to God. The first pillar is the Creed, which expresses what Catholics believe. It centers on the Apostles’ Creed and the Nicene Creed. These professions of faith proclaim one God in three Persons—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—along with the creation of the world, the Incarnation, Passion, Death, and Resurrection of Jesus Christ, the Church as the Mystical Body of Christ, the forgiveness of sins, and the hope of eternal life. The Creed grounds all Catholic doctrine and gives direction to the entire life of faith. The second pillar consists of the seven Sacraments, which are the chief means by which God’s grace is communicated to believers. Baptism initiates new life in Christ, washing away sin. Confirmation strengthens the baptized with the Holy Spirit. The Eucharist is the Real Presence of Christ—Body, Blood, Soul, Divinity and the source and summit of Christian life. Penance forgives sins committed after Baptism, as does the Anointing of the Sick, which also brings healing and comfort in illness. Holy Orders configures men to serve the Church as priests. Matrimony sanctifies the union of husband and wife. Through the sacraments, the faithful encounter Christ in visible signs and receive the grace needed for holy living. The third pillar is the Moral Life, rooted in the Ten Commandments and fulfilled in the teaching of Christ. It calls believers to live according to God’s law by worshiping God alone, honoring His name and the Lord’s Day, respecting parents and human life, and rejecting adultery, theft, false witness, and covetousness. This pillar also includes the Beatitudes, the virtues, and the precepts of the Church. It teaches that genuine faith must bear fruit in daily choices, justice, mercy, and love, shaping character into the image of Christ. The fourth pillar is Prayer, the living conversation between the soul and God. It takes many forms—vocal prayer, meditation, and contemplative prayer—and is modeled above all by the Lord’s Prayer. Catholics pray the Rosary, the Liturgy of the Hours, engage in personal prayer, offering prayers of adoration, contrition, thanksgiving, and petition. Prayer nourishes faith, makes the sacraments fruitful, and gives strength to live the moral life. It keeps the relationship with God personal and vibrant. These four pillars are deeply interconnected. The Creed tells us what to believe, the Sacraments give the grace to live it, the Moral Life shows how to respond, and Prayer sustains the entire journey. Embracing them leads the People of God into deeper union with the Trinity and faithful discipleship in the Church of Christ.

I think excommunication would be appropriate for Leo… Homosexual cardinals go free Latin Mass not supported Algeria said to be a model for future Catholic Birth rate at all time low - no comment 42,000 Iranian protestors killed- no comment US military stopping cartel drugs - no comment Venezuelans love Trump - no comment Algeria goes from 1M Catholics in 1965 to 8k now - no comment I could go on for pages… is anyone aware of this? Beuler?

@SteveSkojec Watch the Roy Cohn documentaries.

It’s fascinating how understated Trump was when he was younger. This isn’t a guy everyone would be trying to do a hilarious impression of. I wonder why he became so much more bombastic over time.

Pray it daily

This moment left me with chills. Eucharistic hosts that have miraculously begun visibly bleeding have all been confirmed to have the same blood type—one of the rarest in the world: type AB. Fr. Spitzer reveals on the show that in-depth scientific studies of multiple Eucharistic miracles have found the substance to be real human blood, leaving scientists without any worldly explanation. These findings are consistent across different miracles, separated by time and geography. “AB. It’s the same blood type as the Shroud of Turin and all the other Eucharistic hosts.” “They all have the same blood type, AB, which would mean that Jesus Christ theoretically would have had this physical blood type.” “That’s right. And that’s very unusual because AB blood type is the rarest—it’s the universal receiver blood type. And it’s the rarest blood type we have, occurring in less than 4% of the population.” The Eucharist is not a symbol. It is the Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Jesus Christ.

Anthropic says Mythos is so powerful that the company is slowing its release. We asked Jared Kaplan why.

This looks really good. Each episode is only about 30 minutes.
