ST. ALOYSIUS OF GONZAGA.*
Confessor.
St. Aloysius is a patron of Catholic youth. Amid the seductions of courts the young prince, full of merits and virtues, kept his first innocence by marvels and mortification. At sixteen he entered at Rome the Company of Jesus. At the age of twenty-three he died a victim of plague on June 21 A.D. 1591.
O God, the Giver of heavenly gifts, who in the angelic youth Aloysius didst unite a wonderful innocence of life with an equal spirit of penance: grant that through his merits and prayers, that we, who have not followed him in his innocence, may imitate him in his penance. Through Our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, Who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end. Amen.
* NOVENA preceeding the Feast of St. Louis of Gonzaga. The faithful who shall hold a Novena in honor of this Saint, can gain: Indulgence of 500 days, once a day.--Plenary, under the usual conditions, after completion of the whole Novena.

Blessed be the Lord my God, who teaches my hands to fight and my fingers to war psalm 144:1
And The Lord Says No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of God and their righteousness which is of me Isiah 54:17
and in thy mercy thou wilt destroy my enemies. And thou wilt cut off all them that afflict my soul: for I am thy servant. Psalm 143:12
And I shall beat them as small as the dust before the wind; I shall bring them to nought, like the dirt in the streets psalm 18:42
In the morning I put to death all the wicked of the land: that I might cut off all the workers of iniquity from the city of the Lord. Psalm 101:8

ST. PAULINUS.
Bishop, Confessor.
Born at Bordeaux (France), Paulinus was elected consul of Nola (Italy). Touched by grace at the tomb of St. Felix, he abandoned earthly goods and became a priest. Being made Bishop of Nola, his life of asceticism and charity make him one of the greatest Bishops of the fifth century. He died A.D. 431.
O God, who hast promised a hundredfold hereafter and eternal life to those who in this world leave all things for Thy sake: grant in Thy mercy that we may follow in the footsteps of the holy Bishop Paulinus, and may be enabled to despise the things of earth and desire only such as are heavenly. Who livest and reignest, with God the Father, in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end. Amen.

An autobiography that sheds some life of the atrocities committed by Protestant England against faithful Catholics. Remember that the English made up all those black legends that serve as ammo for anti whites today. Exaggerations and outright lies about the inquisition and the crusades, on and on. They made these lies up to cover for the very real and well
Documented atrocities and thefts they perpetrated for generations in order to steal church property and enthronement themselves.
This is a direct parallel to how the Holocaust is used by Jews to obfuscate their role in the massive loss of European life in WW2, particularly the holomodor which was the systematic murder of 30 million Christian Europeans by a Jewish Bolshevik. ( Lazar Kaganovich)

At that time, Jesus came into the quarters of Cesarea Philippi: and he asked his disciples, saying: "Whom do men say that the Son of man is?" But they said: "Some John the Baptist, and other some Elias, and others Jeremias, or one of the prophets." Jesus saith to them:"But whom do you say that I am?" Simon Peter answered and said: "Thou art Christ, the Son of the living God." And Jesus answering said to him: "Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-Jona: because flesh and blood hath not revealed it to thee, but my Father who is in heaven. And I say to thee: That thou art Peter; and upon this rock I will build my church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.And I will give to thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven.

COMMEMORATION OF ST. PAUL.
Apostle.
Saul of Tarsus was first a great persecutor and made havoc of the infant Church. Miraculously converted, he began his three great Apostolic Voyages and wrote his Epistles. After a captivity of two years in Caesarea, he came to Rome and travelled to that part of the Church situated beyond Italy. He was beheaded in 65.
O God, who by the preaching of blessed Paul the Apostle, didst teach the multitude of the Gentiles: grant, we beseech Thee, that we who celebrate his heavenly birthday, may also experience his patronage.

Today is the Feast of the Most Precious Blood, and marks the beginning of the Month of the Precious Blood.
The consumption of blood was forbidden to the ancient Hebrews, for blood is life, and life belongs to God. Beginning today, and for this month we recall the Precious Blood, which is the Life of Christ, and therefore a kind of physical manifestation of the Grace of God itself. It is poured out upon the world, justifying the righteous whose comfort it is, and sweeping away the wicked and malicious in a new Deluge to purify all Creation.
Oh sweetest Jesus, by Thy Most Precious Blood, save us!

THE VISITATION OF THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY
JULY 2
After the angel Gabriel had announced to Mary that she was to become the mother of Our Lord, Mary went from Galilee to Juda to visit her kinswoman Elizabeth, soon to be the mother of John the Baptist. This visit is recorded in Luke 1:39-56. Elizabeth greeted Mary with the words, "Blessed are you among women, and blessed is the fruit of your womb." Mary burst forth with the song of praise which we call the Magnificat, beginning, "My soul proclaims the greatness of the Lord." We are told that even John the Baptist, still unborn, leaped for joy in his mother's womb. Thus we are shown, side by side, the two women, one seemingly too old to have a child, but destined to bear the last prophet of the Old Covenant, of the age that was passing away; and the other woman, seemingly not ready to have a child, but destined to bear the One Who was Himself the beginning of the New Covenant, the age that would not pass away.
It is this meeting that we celebrate today.

1776 was a Freemasonic revolution against authority both temporal and spiritual. Today I choose to celebrate proper authority.

#Prayer to #Saint Mary #Magdalen (Feast day July 22nd)
I give you thanks, O Lord Jesus Christ, Son of the living God, for all the tears that Blessed Mary Magdalen shed at Your feet, for washing them with her hands, wiping them with her hair, and for the love with which you so entirely inflame her body and soul, filling her heart so that she never loved any other thing than Thyself. Therefore, I beg of Thee, Lord Jesus, that by her great merits you would grant me the tears of true repentance and fill me with Your divine love, so that before death all my sins may be forgiven by Thee, Jesus, Saviour of the World, King of glory, who lives and reigns with the same God, Father and Holy Spirit, world without end. Amen.
