Saint Mary #Magdalen said:
“Every one who gives thanks to God for the tears I shed over the feet of Christ, and for my having washed those sacred feet and wiped them with my hair; and who praises Him for the love He then poured into my soul and heart, so in flaming me that I could never again love anything else; and begs tears of true repentance and the infusion of divine love, will see our Lord listen willingly, because of my merits, to his pious requests. Before death his sins will be forgiven and he will increase in the love of God.”
Sinful souls who have sullied your hearts like Magdalen, do you not feel great comfort in hearing such words? You, too, can reach the Heart of God. You can also burn with the same love as Magdalen and receive the same wounds.

In every soul consumed by divine love all its actions, thoughts, or sufferings, like branches thrown into the fire, are changed into the fire of love and increase it constantly by feeding it.
If also other combustible matter, such as venial sin, is thrown in it is also consumed and destroyed. This soul would be entirely aflame, and on leaving the body the evil spirits would not dare to approach it.
But they who are not burning with this fire, I mean divine love, whatever they may do, will not be able to destroy their sins. The evil they do will weigh them down and be a heavy load at the hour of death.

Transgender People More Likely To Develop Depression And Anxiety
Transgender individuals are prone to depression and anxiety, but in many cases, do not seek mental health care and treatment.
As modern society sinks further into depravity and chaos, we turn to the #Medieval #Christendom to learn what a truly Christian society is. While the Middle Ages had its faults, like every human epoch, Pope Leo XIII states in his encyclical Immortale Dei, that the Middle Ages was an era in which the philosophy of the Gospel governed the states:
“There was a time when the philosophy of the Gospel governed the states. In that epoch, the influence of Christian wisdom and its divine #virtue permeated the laws, institutions, and customs of the peoples, all categories and all relations of civil #society. Then the religion instituted by Jesus Christ, solidly established in the degree of dignity due to it, flourished everywhere thanks to the favor of princes and the legitimate protection of magistrates. Then the Priesthood and the #Empire were united in a happy concord and by the friendly interchange of good offices. So organized, civil society gave fruits superior to all expectations, whose memory subsists and will subsist, registered as it is in innumerable documents that no artifice of the adversaries can destroy or obscure.”

The Middle Ages Portal - The Moral Solution to the Economic Crisis
We learn from this that our Lord’s life was only possible because His love was suppressed. His death therefore was caused by His love being allowed complete sway. The Sacred Heart could not contain it. It broke, and on the blood-stained bed of the Cross Jesus, like His Mother, died of love only.

#Papal Teaching Against the #Heresy of #Indifferentism
So, Venerable Brethren, it is clear why this Apostolic See has never allowed its subjects to take part in the assemblies of non-Catholics: for the union of Christians can only be promoted by promoting the return to the one true Church of Christ of those who are separated from it, for in the past they have unhappily left it. To the one true Church of Christ, we say, which is visible to all, and which is to remain, according to the will of its Author, exactly the same as He instituted it.

Roots of the Synod and Apostasy in Rome | Fr. Isaac Mary Relyea
The sacrilegious, even idolatrous, abominations which took place in Rome during the Amazon Synod were beyond any Catholic’s imagination, making those among the saddest weeks in the entire history of the Church. Being totally diabolical, these events will…
Our Lord said:
“I will answer fully and entirely for you to My Father. I will offer for you first that holy time, those nine months which I passed in My virginal Mother’s womb. I will offer it for the time when thou, enclosed in Your mother’s womb and stained with original sin, were incapable of receiving My grace. I will then offer My holy birth for Your birth when, not yet regenerated in the baptismal font, you were estranged from Me.
“Then, I will offer the first days of My life, so pure, before I spoke, and those of My infancy, for the ignorance in which you passed the same age. I will also offer the fervent desires of My childhood and youth to atone for the your negligences.
“I will offer the whole of My holy and perfect life on earth, with the fruit of My Passion, overflowing with My love, for all Your sins of commission and omission. In that way, in Me and by Me, all that you stand in need of shall be supplied.”
O infinite justice of God, exact from me as rigorous an account of all my iniquities and excesses as you wilt. I am not reduced to the Prophet’s helplessness: Si iniquitates observaveris Domine, Domine quis sustinebit?” Behold the Heart of Jesus; from it, pay Yourself for all my debts. you will not exhaust my treasure; with the surplus I dare ask Heaven of You, and Heaven is You.

The Five #Joys of Our Lord's #Resurrection
“To everyone who shall remind Me of these joys, for the first, provided he desires it before death, I will give him a foretaste of My divinity. For the second, I will give him the gift of knowledge. For the third, I will offer his soul to My Father at the hour of his death. For the fourth, I will share with him My labours and the fruit of,all My sufferings, and for the fifth, I will associate him in the happiness of the Saints.”
-------
“The first is the joy My divinity received on this day from My humanity and My humanity from my divinity.
“The second, the joy I felt when in the place of all the bitterness that love poured on Me during my Passion, it now spread an immeasurable happiness and the fullness of its joy through all my members.
“The third, the joy I felt in offering to My Father the most precious gift, in a transport of delight. I mean My soul and all the souls I had just redeemed.
“The fourth, the joy I experienced when My Father gave Me the power to honour, enrich and reward the friends whom I had redeemed with so much pain and at so great a cost.
“The fifth, the joy I felt in seeing My Father associate with Me, in the everlasting glory of My throne, those whom I had redeemed, making them co-heirs with Me and guests at My table. Other kings, after having dined with their friends, leave them once the repast is over, but My friends will remain with Me eternally."

St Mechtilde, has drawn up a magnificent prayer in honour of His joys:
“Praise, adoration, greatness, glory and blessing be to Thee, O good Jesus, for this ineffable joy, felt by you in Your blessed Humanity, when Your Father gave it divine glorification at Your resurrection and conferred on all the elect the eternal glorification of His divinity. By this ineffable joy I beg of Thee, O loving Mediator between God and man, to keep for me in its integrity, by Your grace, this glory which you then gave me, so that I may meet it again at the day of Judgment. Amen.
“Praise, adoration, greatness, glory and blessing be to Thee, O good Jesus, for another ineffable joy. Your boundless charity drew you from the bosom of the Father into this world where you submitted to all its pains and miseries. At Your resurrection this joy filled with unutterable happiness and gladness all Your members, which on the Cross had been wrung with intolerable pain. By this unspeakable joy, I beg of Thee, loving Mediator between God and man, to enlighten my mind and make me understand my own soul, so that I may always know what is pleasing to Thee. Amen.
“Praise, adoration, greatness, glory and blessing be to Thee, O good Jesus, for a third ineffable joy. It was felt by Your holy soul when it presented itself to God the Father as the price and pledge of eternal redemption, followed by the numberless multitude of blessed souls that it had then delivered from Limbo. By this great joy, I beg of Thee, O loving Mediator between God and man, to be the ransom of my soul at the hour of my death, the sum that will pay all my debts, appease in my favour God the Father, that just Judge, and conduct me with joy into His presence. Amen.
“Praise, adoration, greatness, joy and blessing be to Thee, O good Jesus, for another glorious joy. You experienced it when God the Father gave you full power to reward, enrich and honour with Your boundless liberality all Your friends, companions in the fight, whom You, in the midst of Your glorious triumph, deliver from a tyrannical power. By this marvelous joy, O loving Mediator between God and man, I pray you to let me participate in all Your labours and sufferings, and also in Your glorious death and blessed resurrection. Amen.
“Praise, adoration, greatness, glory and blessing be to Thee, O good Jesus, for the last ineffable joy that you had when Your Father gave you all Your friends for Your eternal inheritance and when that loving request and desire was fulfilled, ‘I will that where I am, they also whom you have given Me may be with Me (John 17:24). By this request all joy and all good, which is Thyself, became their portion for ever. By this delicious joy, O loving Mediator between God and man, I beg of you to associate me with this blessed company of Your elect, so that I may possess you with them, Thee, all my joy and my whole good, now and in eternity. Amen.”

O #Saint #Aloysius, adorned with angelical manners, although I am thy unworthy servant, I recommend to thee in an especial manner the #chastity of my soul and body; I conjure thee, by thy angelical #purity, to commend me to Jesus Christ, the spotless Lamb, and to His most holy Mother, the Virgin of virgins. Preserve me from every grievous #sin; never suffer me to sully my soul with any #impurity; whenever thou seest me in temptation or danger of sin, ward off from me every impure thought and affection, and awakening in me the remembrance of eternity and of Jesus crucified, imprint deeply in my heart the sentiment of the fear of God. Inflame me with divine love, in order that by imitating thee on earth, I may merit to enjoy God with thee in heaven. Amen.

Plenary indulgence on his feast, on receiving and visiting his statue or picture. Plenary indulgence for the devotion of six Sundays before his feast, or at any other time.--Benedict XIII., Clement XII., Benedict XIY., and Pius VII.
A #Prayer to be Said by Young #Men
O most glorious #Saint #Aloysius, who hast been honored by the Church with the fair title of "angelic #youth," because of the life of utmost #purity thou didst lead here on earth, I come before thy presence this day with all the devotion of my mind and heart. O perfect exemplar, kind and powerful patron of young men, how great is my need of thee! The world and the devil are trying to ensnare me; I am conscious of the arbor of my passions; I know full well the weakness of inconstancy of my age. Who shall be able to keep me safe if not thou, O Saint of angelic purity, the glory and honor, the loving protector of youth? To thee, therefore, I have recourse with all my soul, to thee I commit myself with all my heart. I hearby resolve, promise and desire to be especially devout toward thee, to glorify thee by imitating thy extraordinary #virtues and in particular thy angelic purity, to copy thy example, and to promote devotion to thee among companions. O dear Saint Aloysius, do thou guard and defend me always, in order that, under thy protection and following thy example, I may one day be able to join with thee in seeing and praising my God forever in heaven. Amen.

A good romance #movie infused with Catholic spirit, virtue and decency:
An international soccer star is on his way to sign a multimillion-dollar contract when something happens that brings his career to an abrupt end. A waitress, struggling to make it in New York City, discovers something about herself that she's unprepared for. In one irreversible moment, their lives are turned upside down...until an impetuous action brings them together and turns an ordinary day into an unforgettable experience. Once a famous athlete, and now a cook at his brother's Mexican restaurant, José has retreated from the world but he recognizes something in Nina, a young waitress, and reaches out to her.

No sex and nudity, no profanity and blasphemy
Also highly recommend the other movies done by the same director Alejandro Monteverde
