 Keep me safe, O God; you are my hope.


Reflection from Dynamic Catholic


Alleluia

John 17:21

R. Alleluia, alleluia.
May they all be one as you, Father, are in me and I in you,
that the world may believe that you sent me, says the Lord.
R. Alleluia, alleluia.
 

Gospel

John 17:20-26

Lifting up his eyes to heaven, Jesus prayed saying:
"I pray not only for these,
but also for those who will believe in me through their word,
so that they may all be one,
as you, Father, are in me and I in you,
that they also may be in us,
that the world may believe that you sent me.
And I have given them the glory you gave me,
so that they may be one, as we are one,
I in them and you in me,
that they may be brought to perfection as one,
that the world may know that you sent me,
and that you loved them even as you loved me.
Father, they are your gift to me.
I wish that where I am they also may be with me,
that they may see my glory that you gave me,
because you loved me before the foundation of the world.
Righteous Father, the world also does not know you,
but I know you, and they know that you sent me.
I made known to them your name and I will make it known,
that the love with which you loved me
may be in them and I in them."

O/P: Those Darn Toxic Traddies!

By Catholic Cyber-Militia

"Traddie" with joy.  Being a Traddie offers stability, sanity, and context in these days of unprecedented turmoil and upheaval for our beloved Church.  I encourage my friends in the real world to discover the joys of the Traditional/Extraordinary Form of the Mass, and I endeavor to encourage my acquaintances in the Catholic Blog-O-Sphere to do likewise. One consistent criticism leveled against Traddies is that we lack charity.  There is some substance to this.  Welder Chick, our OHCA foundress of happy memory, pointed out this shortcoming on more than one occasion, and she was right. The characterization is often overplayed by non-Traddies, who act as if they consider this character flaw sufficient grounds for dismissing traditional Catholics in their entirety.  Yes, there are cranky Traddies out there who lack c...

Teach me your paths, my God, and guide me in your truth. R. Alleluia, alleluia.   Gospel Matthew 5:17-19 Jesus said to his disciples: "Do not think that I have come to abolish the law or the prophets. I have come not to abolish but to fulfill. Amen, I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or the smallest part of a letter will pass from the law, until all things have taken place. Therefore, whoever breaks one of the least of these commandments and teaches others to do so will be called least in the Kingdom of heaven. But whoever obeys and teaches these commandments will be called greatest in the Kingdom of heaven."

One does not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes forth from the mouth of God. R.  Alleluia, alleluia. Gospel Matthew 14:13-21 When Jesus heard of the death of John the Baptist, he withdrew in a boat to a deserted place by himself. The crowds heard of this and followed him on foot from their towns. When he disembarked and saw the vast crowd, his heart was moved with pity for them, and he cured their sick. When it was evening, the disciples approached him and said, "This is a deserted place and it is already late; dismiss the crowds so that they can go to the villages and buy food for themselves." He said to them, "There is no need for them to go away; give them some food yourselves." But they said to him, "Five loaves and two fish are all we have here." Then he said, ...
