To Remember the Anonymous Victims of Coronavirus — Pope’s Appeal at Santa Marta (FULL TEXT) words For Missionaries

FULL HOMILY   [translated by ZENIT’s Virginia Forrester]   “No one can come to Me unless the Father draws him”: Jesus reminds <us> that the Prophets also pre-announced this. “And they shall all be taught by God.” It is God who draws <us> to knowledge of the Son. Without this, <we> cannot know Jesus. Yes, yes, one can study, also study the Bible, also know how He was born, what He did: this yes. However, to know Him from within, to know the mystery of Christ is only for those that are drawn by God to this. This is what happened to the Minister of the economy of the Queen of Ethiopia.

Anglicans and other Protestants use a 33 bead rosary. Catholic Rosary History The practice of counting prayers on a series of beads or knots dates back to the fourth century when monks used to count repetitions of the Jesus prayer on a knotted woolen rope. All of the pieces of the rosary -- the prayers, the beads and the meditations -- didn't come together until the Carthusian monks of Trier put them together in the early 15th century. By the end of the

Shakespeare and the Gunpowder Plot - Crisis Magazine

Shakespeare and the Gunpowder Plot - Crisis Magazine : The fact that Shakespeare was a believing Catholic in very anti-Catholic times can be proven beyond any reasonable doubt. The evidence is convincing in terms of what is known about his life and from what can be seen in his plays and poems. Since this is so, it’s intriguing to consider Shakespeare’s response to the …

Cardinal Pell, the Living Martyr - Crisis Magazine

Cardinal Pell, the Living Martyr - Crisis Magazine : A cardinal, a Prince of the Church, remains locked up in a small cell, separated from all, locked in, and without access to the sacraments.
