Regarding Confirmation:
“Just as Christ, after His baptism and the coming upon Him of the Holy Spirit went forth and defeated the adversary, so also with you. After holy Baptism and the Mystical Chrism, having put on the full suit of armor of the Holy Spirit, you are to withstand the power of the adversary, and defeat him, saying, ‘I am able to do all things in Christ, Who strengthens me.’”
~ St. Cyril of Jerusalem

It's not often sung in Japanese Catholic churches, but the Gloria in the song "Yamato no Sasageuta" composed by Saburo Takada is very beautiful, so please give it a listen if you have the chance!

@HiroyaTsunekawa Your apron dress is lovely!
It reminded me that I just saw this other apron dress in another post and thought, “this is so cute!”
I’m jealous of your sewing skills.
I can hand stitch, but for whatever reason using a sewing machine is difficult for me.

@chikuchiku_1221 Not sure if there is a style called that, but it reminds me of Betsy Johnson’s style

When you condemn a fallen man, you condemn God Himself. If you see a robber, a prostitute, or a drunkard lying in the street, do not judge them, for the Lord has allowed their passions. Perhaps this is how they must find their way to God, so they may humble themselves, see their own weakness, know God, and repent. Are you virtuous? That is only because God is restraining your passions. If He were to loosen His hold on you, you might fall into even greater sins and perish.
~ St. Gabriel (Urgebadze) of Georgia

The Octave of Easter is an eight-day liturgical celebration that prolongs the joy of Easter Sunday, the Resurrection of Christ. It lasts from Easter Sunday through the Second Sunday of Easter, also called Divine Mercy Sunday.
Octave means eight days, including the feast itself, treating each day as a little Easter or solemnity of the Lord. Every day within the octave ranks as a high-level solemnity, with focused Resurrection readings and the repeated Alleluia cry of victory over sin and death. It begins Eastertide, the 50-day Easter season ending at Pentecost, and emphasizes new life in Christ, like a new creation or great Sunday. The octave overrides other feasts, keeping full attention on the Resurrection of Our Lord.
This structure allows the Church to savor the mystery gradually rather than limiting it to one day.

Often, the proclamation of truth is obscured by what we today call “fake news” — lies, insinuations, and unfounded accusations. Yet, in the face of such obstacles, the truth does not remain hidden; rather, it comes forth to meet us, living and radiant, illuminating even the deepest darkness.

#Orthodox and #Catholics unite every year in Dhour El Choueir, #Lebanon, celebrating #PalmSunday and #Easter together on the same day. To avoid division, the village chooses one common date for the #Resurrection, bringing the #Maronite, Catholic, and Orthodox churches together.

日本のカトリック信徒が1%未満の理由はこれもあります。鎖国だけが理由ではありません。この冒涜に対して犠牲が必要です。我々はこの逆をしないといけません。つまり祈りや犠牲の他に、聖体行列、聖母行列など多くのカトリックの信心業となる証が必要なのです。

江戸時代お正月の時期になると明治初期まで毎年イベントのように絵踏が行われていました。これにより多くの我々の先祖が殉教しました。今日はミサ後の踏み絵を拝むことによって絵踏の行為の犠牲を行いました。本当は踏み絵に接吻を毎年していたのですが、コロナ禍の影響で今年は跪いて礼拝しました。

Do you know that during exorcisms, Saint Gemma Galgani is a saint, so powerful, that she assist exorcists due to the fear demons have of her.
She is the patron saint of people suffering from back injury, headaches, migraines, and those struggling with temptations to impurity,
May she intercede for everyone having headaches and migraines, today. Amen

I know there are obstacles with location, access, and culture. Maybe find an apostolic church like Catholic or orthodox so you can mitigate the cult-churches you’re talking about in other comments.
And if none are physically located near you, maybe look at their websites and see if they stream their masses online so you can watch that way. Email their priests and see if there’s a way to be involved someway or give you guidance to your particular situation.
I’ll keep you in my prayers hoping you’re able to find a solution and grow closer to God. And I’ll pray for the intercession of St. Philip Neri (the patron saint of joyful, Christ-filled community life) for you. 🙏
