VEN. HUSBAND OF A VEN. WIFE
Venerable Sergio Bernardini
---
Today is the death anniversary of the Ven. Sergio Bernardini. He was an Italian married layperson and Franciscan tertiary. He was declared venerable with his wife, Ven. Domenica Bernardini. He was first married to Emilia and they had 3 children. By 1912, his wife and all his 3 kids had died. He married Domenica and they had 10 children. They worked as farmers. He was a model father who led his kids to a deep faith in Christ.

You may think we have it bad here, but across the ocean, the faithful are persecuted for committing thought crimes against the Left’s Moloch holy sites.

Never think that prayer isn’t powerful. If it wasn’t, our enemies wouldn’t try to stop us.

“If I were to give advice, I would say to parents that they ought to be very careful whom they allow to mix with their children when young; for much mischief thence ensues, and our natural inclinations are unto evil rather than unto good.” -St Teresa of Avila

I remember hearing a sermon from a Catholic priest who stopped a mother who tried carrying her fussy child out of the church and said to the laity: “All of you who judge a parent for their child’s behavior are the reason why millions of our Lords babies are slaughtered by their own mothers. All angry children should be looked upon with smiles rather than judgement if we’re going to save them” (paraphrased)

Serbian firefighters with straight priorities.

Marianna, mother of Blessed Jerzy Popiełuszko, on the day of his beatification in 2010 said "I am forgiving my son's murderers."

Father Jerzy had been tortured and murdered by three members of the security service of the communist government of Poland. 🇵🇱
