The Catholic Wire · 19th Sunday After Pentecost.-On St. Therese Epistle:Lesson from the letter of St. Paul the Apostle to the EphesiansEph 4:23-28Brethren: Be renewed in the spirit of your mind, and put on the new man, which has been created according to God in justice and holiness of truth. Wherefore, put away lying and speak truth each one with his neighbor, because we are members of one another. Be angry and do not sin; do not let the sun go down upon your anger; do not give place to the devil.

Sermon for the Feast of the North American Martyrs

September 25, 2021

“The Blood of the Martyrs is the seed of the Church” My dear friends, today we celebrate and remember our parents in the faith. We celebrate the north American martyrs. These where 7 Priests and one layman, who died here in North America, for no other reason but their desire to bring salvation to the souls in this continent. We offer the holy Sacrifice of the Mass for the honor of men, who lived and died, here in this land, to bring Christ, and His Blessed Mother, to bring the Church to us, at the price of their lives. And I called them our parents in the faith, because we truly are related to them. These men where some of the first Apostles in these lands. If we have the Catholic Church, if we are able to receive the sacraments, and to enjoy so many of the blessings we enjoy,

Epistletaken from the letter of St. Paul the Apostle to the EphesiansEph 3:13-21Brethren: I pray you not to be disheartened at my tribulations for you, for they are your glory. For this reason I bend my knees to the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, from Whom all fatherhood in heaven and on earth receives its name, that He may grant you from His glorious riches to be strengthened with power through His Spirit unto the progress of the inner man; and to have Christ dwelling through faith in your hearts: so that, being rooted and grounded in love, you may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the breadth and length and height and depth, and to know Christ’s love which surpasses knowledge, in order that you may be filled unto all the fullness of God.

EpistleTaken from the letter of St. Paul the Apostle to the GalatiansGal 5:25-26; 6:1-10Brethren: If we live by the Spirit, by the Spirit let us also walk. Let us not become desirous of vainglory, provoking one another, envying one another. Brethren, even if a person is caught doing something wrong, you who are spiritual instruct such a one in a spirit of meekness, considering yourself, lest you also be tempted. Bear one another’s burdens, and so you will fulfill the law of Christ. For if anyone thinks himself to be something, whereas he is nothing, he deceives himself. But let everyone test his own work, and so he will have glory in himself only, and not in comparison with another. For each one will bear his own burden. And let him who is instructed in the word share all good things with his teacher. Be not deceived, God is not

Sermon on Extreme Unction, or the Anointing of the Sick.

EpistleTaken from the letter of St. Paul the Apostle to the GalatiansGal 5:16-24Brethren: Walk in the Spirit, and you will not fulfill the lusts of the flesh. For the flesh lusts against the spirit, and the spirit against the flesh; for these are opposed to each other, so that you do not do what you would. But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the Law. Now the works of the flesh are manifest, which are immorality, uncleanness, licentiousness, idolatry, witchcrafts, enmities, contentions, jealousies, anger, quarrels, factions, parties, envies, murders, drunkenness, carousings, and suchlike. And concerning these I warn you, as I have warned you, that they who do such things will not attain the kingdom of God. But of the fruit of the Spirit is: charity, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, long-suffering, mildness, faith, modesty, continency, chastity. Against such things there is no law. And
