Il s’agit d’une série d’évangélisation multilingue utilisée pour expliquer les bases du catholicisme apostolique en seulement 15 minutes aux incroyants, aux aspirants spirituels et même aux catholiques incultes. Cette partie 2 est en français. Par la grâce de Dieu et par vos prières, les prochains épisodes de l'EIX seront dans d’autres langues.

Sr. Lucy of Fatima and Russia Part 2

By |2022-02-26T16:42:28+00:00March 3rd, 2022|Theology|

The following used to be on the archives of The Fatima Center and it was published when Sr. Lucy of Fatima was still alive.  I saved it to my Evernote years ago.  I do not know why it was removed, nor do I know if all of the information can be verified.  But even if Sr. Lucy had no "replacement" and if she actually lived until 2005 (both highly contested premises by many traditional Catholics) then I believe the following looks solid enough to be back on the internet again and it helps explains if Russia was ever consecrated by a Pope: Chronology of Four Cover-up Campaigns: Silencing of Sister Lucia [...]

Travel Tips for Catholics (and Others)

By |2022-02-23T14:28:23+00:00February 24th, 2022|Theology|

Obviously, there are a million websites telling you how to travel.  But this "Pilgrim Priest" is going to give you a few new tips you may not have known: Ahead of Time: Find out which countries require vaccines and masks not only to tour, but also to land in their country.  Also, your passport may not be enough.  Make sure to get travel-visas ahead of time.  (Just before my very first flight to Brazil in seminary, I got stopped on the way from Denver to Rio De Janeiro in Atlanta, not knowing I needed a visa to enter Brazil.  I had to fly back to Denver and re-book everything.  Since [...]

To Remain at the Foot of the Cross

By |2022-02-23T14:01:59+00:00February 23rd, 2022|Life|

My friend, Msgr. Philip Reilly of the diocese of Brooklyn was the founder of Helpers of God's Precious Infants.  Msgr. Reilly was one of the pioneers of sidewalk counseling in the United States.  His method of love, fasting, prayer, kindness and constant presence at the abortion centers has been the cause of tens of thousands of saves and the closing of many abortion centers. Msgr. Reilly is an extremely gentle and compassionate sidewalk counselor who has turned away countless women from an abortion center in Brooklyn and has inspired the satellite units of Helpers of God's Precious Infants to close numerous abortion mills.  But even when sidewalk counselors are not [...]

Are Trads Mean?

By |2022-02-22T13:34:41+00:00February 22nd, 2022|Theology|

I recently stayed with traditional priest who, although Western and a bit older than me, reminded me of a Holy Fool of the East. A Holy Fool in Russian is called юродивый or a yurodivy and it's its own class of saint. The Holy Fool makes you think he is stupid, but in fact—it's you he reveals as stupid. The Eastern Church's holy fool is not insane as the name implies to Western eyes, but is rather an indomitable lover of God who makes you re-think your own arrogance through his prophetic actions in your life. (The older Latin priest I stayed with had little idea he was like the [...]

Ex Opere Operato vs. Ex Opere Operantis

By |2022-02-16T02:10:47+00:00February 17th, 2022|Theology|

Fr. John Hardon SJ is quoted at The Fatima Center defining these two sacramental terms:   Ex opere operantis is a term mainly applied to the good dispositions with which a sacrament is received, to distinguish it from the ex opere operato which is the built-in efficacy of a sacrament properly conferred.   The above is an excellent definition of those two sacramental terms that always must be considered in a balance.  Most amateur theologians today are pretty good at knowing the principle of ex opere operato, namely, that a priest in mortal sin still validly confects the sacraments (provided he say the correct words.)  This is good that amateur theologians know this.  But most amateur [...]
