  • SAINT OF THE DAY: Saint Hyacinth, Confessor

    Called the "Apostle of the North", Hyacinth was the son of Eustachius Koński of the noble family of Odrowąż. He was born in 1185 at the castle of Lanka, at Kamień, in Silesia, Poland. A near relative of Ceslaus, he made his studies in notable cities: Kraków, Prague, and Bologna, and at the latter place merited the title of Doctor of Law and Divinity. On his return to Poland he was given a prebend at Sandomierz, a medieval centre of administration in the south-eastern part of the country. He subsequently accompanied his uncle Ivo Konski, the Bishop of Kraków, to Rome. While in Rome, he witnessed a miracle performed by Dominic of Osma, and became a Dominican friar, along with Ceslaus and two attendants of the Bishop of Kraków, Herman and Henry. In 1219 Pope Honorius III invited Dominic and his followers to take up residence at the ancient Roman basilica of Santa Sabina, which they did by early 1220. Before that time, the friars had only a temporary residence in Rome at the convent of San Sisto Vecchio which Honorius III had given to Dominic in about 1218, intending it to be used for a reformation of Roman nuns under Dominic's guidance. Hyacinth and his companions were among the first to enter the convent. They were also the first alumni of the studium of the Dominican Order at Santa Sabina out of which would grow the 16th century College of Saint Thomas at Santa Maria Sopra Minerva, which became the Pontifical University of Saint Thomas Aquinas, Angelicum in the 20th century. After an abbreviated novitiate, Hyacinth and his companions received the religious habit of the Order from Dominic himself in 1220. The young friars were then sent back to their homeland to establish the Dominican Order in Poland and Kiev. As Hyacinth and his three companions traveled back to Kraków, he set up new monasteries with his companions as superiors, until finally he was the only one left to continue on to Kraków. Hyacinth went throughout northern Europe spreading the faith. He died in the year 1257. Tradition holds that he also evangelized throughout Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Prussia, Scotland, Russia, Turkey, and Greece. However, these travels are heavily disputed and are not supported by the earliest hagiographies of Hyacinth. One of the major miracles attributed to Hyacinth came about during a Mongol attack on Kiev. As the friars prepared to flee the invading forces, Hyacinth went to save the ciborium containing the Blessed Sacrament from the tabernacle in the monastery chapel, when he heard the voice of Mary, the mother of Jesus, asking him to take her, too. Hyacinth lifted the large, stone statue of Mary, as well as the ciborium. He was easily able to carry both, despite the fact that the statue weighed far more than he could normally lift. Thus he saved them both. For this reason he is usually shown holding a monstrance (though they did not come into use until several centuries later) and a statue of Mary. The Polish exclamation Święty Jacku z pierogami! ("St. Hyacinth and his pierogi!") is an old-time saying, a call for help in some hopeless circumstance.[6] It has derived from two legends. One of them is about his visit on July 13, 1238 to Kościelec. During his visit a hailstorm broke out, destroying crops and leaving people with the terrible prospect of poverty and famine. Hyacinth told them to pray. Next day the crops were miraculously restored. The people then treated Hyacinth to pierogi made from those crops as a token of gratitude. The second legend mentions Hyacinth feeding people with pierogi during a famine caused by the Mongol invasion of 1241 Veneration The tomb of Hyacinth is in the Basilica of Holy Trinity in Krakow, Poland, in a chapel that bears his name. Hyacinth was canonized on 17 April 1594 by Pope Clement VIII, and his memorial day is celebrated on 17 August. In 1686 Pope Innocent XI named him a patron of Lithuania. He is the patron saint of those in danger of drowning. In Spanish-language countries, Hyacinth is known as San Jacinto. However, most of the numerous towns and locations in Spanish-speaking countries that are so named are named for the early Christian martyr Hyacinth of Caesarea. Ermita de Piedra de San Jacinto He is also the patron saint of the Ermita de Piedra de San Jacinto in the Philippine city of Tuguegarao, where his feast day is celebrated with a procession and folk dance contests. The town of Camalaniugan in the Philippines is also under the saint's patronage. The town church dedicated to Saint Hyacinth is home to the oldest church bell in the Far East, the "Sancta Maria," which dates from 1595. The town of San Jacinto, in Yaguachi, Ecuador, has had Saint Hyacinth as its patron saint since the 15th century. The Cathedral San Jacinto de Yaguachi in the town is dedicated to the saint, which holds some of his relics given to the Archbishop of Guayaquil by Pope John Paul II in the 1980s. Hyacinth is also the patron saint of São Jacinto island in Goa, India. Among notable churches in North America dedicated to Hyacinth of Poland is St. Hyacinth's Basilica in Chicago, Illinois.

  • SAINT OF THE DAY: St. Joachim, Father of the Most Blessed Virgin

    St. Joachim was the ever-chaste husband of St. Anne, the mother of our Blessed Virgin. Though advanced in years, Sts. Joachim and Anne remained fervent in their prayers to be blessed with a child. God was pleased with their devotion and chose to bless them with a miraculous conception, long past child-bearing years, as a result of their love of Him and love of each other. Tradition teaches that while Joachim was away from home, an angel of God appeared to him in a vision. This angel promised that he and Saint Anne would bear a child who would be blessed through the ages. Upon waking from this vision, St. Joachim rushed home to share his excitement with his beloved wife. She was there to greet him, only to reveal the same good tidings as she was promised in another visitation from God's messenger. What indescribably sweet happiness must have existed in their hearts to know God was granting them such a blessing! In gratitude and devotion to their Lord, St. Joachim delivered Mary to the service of the Temple when she was just three years old. As a result of his exemplary love, devotion, and obedience to the Will of the Father, St. Joachim was named Patron of fathers, grandfathers, grandparents, married couples, cabinet makers, and linen traders. He is shown in art forms as an older man, often in the company of his beloved wife, St. Anne, and sometimes with the Blessed Mother and Jesus. Images of Saint Joachim are often identified by the presence of his associated symbols. A book or scroll represents linen makers, a shepherd's staff for the Christian world, and a basket of doves represents peace. He is almost always dressed in green, the color of hope. Prayer to Saint Joachim O great and glorious Patriarch, Saint Joachim, what joy is mine when I consider that thou wast chosen among all God's holy ones to assist in the fulfillment of the mysteries of God, and to enrich our earth with the great Mother of God, Mary most holy! By this singular privilege, thou hast become most powerful with both the Mother and her Son, so as to be able to obtain for us the graces that are needful to us; with great confidence I have recourse to thy mighty protection and I commend to thee all my needs and those of my family, both spiritual and temporal; and especially do I entrust to thy keeping the particular favor that I desire and look for from thy fatherly intercession. And since thou wast a perfect pattern of the interior life, obtain for me the grace of interior recollection and a spirit of detachment from the transitory goods of this life, together with a lively and enduring love for Jesus and Mary. Obtain for me in like manner a sincere devotion and obedience to Holy Church and the sovereign pontiff who rules over her: to the end that I may live and die in faith and hope and perfect charity, ever invoking the holy names of Jesus and Mary, and may I thus be saved. Amen.

  • WARNINGS FROM BEYOND (Hell)Part 2i

    To the Contemporary Church[Confessions of Hell]A literal text of the revelations made by the demons Beelzebub, Judas Iscariot, Akabor, Allida, and Verobaduring a series of exorcisms' from 1975 to 1978 A translation from the French, by Nancy Knowles Smith, of the book 'Avertissements de l'Au'delà à l’Église Contemporaine – Aveux de l’Enfer’ by Jean Marty. The revelations have also been published in German by Bonaventure Meyer in Switzerland. Jean Marty's book in French is available from 'Les Editions Saint Raphael, 31 Ouest, rue King, Sherbrooke, Quebec, Canada J IH INS. THE SACRAMENT OF ORDERS E: In the name of the Most Blessed Virgin, say what you have to say about the Sacrament of Orders! B: What we must still say about this Sacrament will have to be included in the book. E: Then, come on, speak, in the name of the Most Blessed Trinity! B: For that to happen, you will need to say a complete “Rosary of Tears”, and three times: “Holy Michael, Archangel...”, and one “Hail Mary” in honor of Saints Peter and Paul and each of the twelve Apostles. Only after that, will we be obliged to speak about this Sacrament...; and so that it may be the truth, She says you will be required to pray, to say all the prayers She asks for. (The prayers requested are recited in unison) E: In the name of the Immaculate Conception, tell the truth! THE NEW RITE FOR CONFERRING THIS SACRAMENT B: The Great Lady does not very much like the priestly ordination as it is now practiced. They (in Heaven) do not like this new rite. This new ordination is done more with the people in mind than with God and His Majesty in mind. The rite of the past must be used, and the accent put on the fact that the priest is a priest of the Most High according to the Spirit of Jesus Christ, the eternal and unique High Priest. Instead of that, it is more from the people's point of view now, both in the consecration and the rite. Arising from that, there are far fewer graces. That is why these priests, later on, will have much less understanding of good and of evil. If the priestly ordination were administered as it used to be, there would be a much greater understanding of the Holy Spirit, the understanding of what is right and what is not. That commences at the very moment of ordination. It is the same kind of thing that happens at Confirmation. E: In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, in the name...! B: The priestly ordination is no longer administered exactly as it should be... so much so that there is no longer the plenitude of graces... it is no longer the complete ordination. It is the priest's mission to teach, to celebrate the Holy Mass in a proper way, to administer the Sacraments in a proper way; to bless and to consecrate. E: In the name of the Blessed Virgin, tell the truth! THE CHARACTER OR INEFFACEABLE MARK OF THE SACRAMENT OF ORDERS B: The priestly ordination is a very great, very exalted, universal Sacrament, before which the rest of us down below (demons) must capitulate. This Sacrament also imprints on the soul an ineffaceable mark. When the priest has fulfilled his duties badly, has lived a bad life, and comes to join us in Hell, we are able to torment him much more. This applies to three Sacraments: Holy Baptism, Holy Confirmation, and the Holy consecration of a priest. These three Sacraments imprint an indelible mark on the soul, which will never be able to be removed, not even in Hell. That is why these men, these Catholics - such as Judas - suffer much greater torments in Hell than those who have never received these Sacraments. These are incomparably great Sacraments, which bring to those who receive them much more elevated graces than men can appreciate. When he does not correspond to these graces, this priest or this bishop is then tormented much more, in a much more persistent way, than if he had never received them. That is why he who wishes to become a priest must examine his conscience, must make himself examine it carefully and seriously, to see if he is called to it. There are many of them who believe that they are called to the priesthood, but in fact, their call would be to another state... as lay people (Here Lucifer interrupts and violently torments the possessed woman) E: In the name of the Most Holy Trinity, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, in the name of Jesus, the Son of God made man, Who died for us on the Cross, in the name of the Most Blessed Virgin, of the Immaculate Heart and of all the Angels and Saints, in the name of the Holy Apostles Peter and Paul - whose Feast we celebrate today - tell us now the truth and nothing but the truth, say what the Most Blessed Virgin wishes to say to us about the priestly, ordination and what relates to it! ECÔNE WILL TRIUMPH IN SPITE OF EVERYTHING B: Ah!... That cursed Ecône... it will conquer! We are scheming madly and doing everything that we can against it. But it has the only true Priesthood. We have to acknowledge that. It will conquer in spite of all the opposition and all the attacks. It will conquer! There would be no need to attack it if it were not true and authentic. Whatever they do at Ecône should make no difference to the others who are always talking about solidarity and dialogue. (he sighs and breathes heavily). Why don't they leave him alone (Mgr. Lefebvre)? Why do they torment him like that? It comes about only because we want it, because we do not want the truth and because we fear that the Church may come to life again. We do not want the Church to prevail and to come to life again in order to become once more what it ought to be, and what They up there (he points upward) want it to be. We do not want that. That is why we have, in addition to our fury against Pope Paul VI, a mad fury against Archbishop Lefebvre. The second of our hatred is directed against him. But, in the end, those two will conquer. E: What does the Most Blessed Virgin still wish to tell us about priestly ordination? Tell the truth and nothing but the truth, in the name...! THE DUTIES OF THE PRIEST B: The priests must teach. Do they still do it properly? Do they still preach properly? Do they still instruct the children properly? Most of the time they don't anymore. They distort many things and no longer teach the truth in the way they should teach it. They no longer instruct the children; they no longer preach on the virtues and vices, nor on the art of practicing the virtues. What the majority teach and preach today... are anecdotes. They derive many of their arguments from their “mini-synods” because they mutually support each other in their modernism and would like to impose it on the people. The people don't want the truth anymore... they want to take the line of least resistance. So they have a very easy time of it. Today, they don't like hearing talk about the virtues nor about the imitation of Christ. Suffering, much suffering, carrying the cross... the man of today does not like to hear talk about those things. He would prefer not to follow the Cross of Christ as Those up there (he points upward) would want him to. He would prefer to please himself how he lives. Not all the priests still say the Holy Mass every day. Many now say it only once or twice a week... and the people are barely aware of it, as hardly any go to Mass anymore. Just look in the Churches. The more they are becoming entrenched in Modernism, the fewer people they have in the church. It is in this way that Christian life is disappearing. E: Speak, in the name...! LOSS OF GRACES DUE TO LACK OF RESPECT AT MASS B: There are now some priests who do not even believe anymore that it is necessary to genuflect at the Consecration. But when, for example, the bishop comes to administer Confirmation, or for some other occasion, then, all of a sudden, they bend their knees, because they believe it would create a bad impression in front of the bishop, if they were to remain standing upright like a military man. This would have a much worse effect if the bishop himself were making more than just a simple genuflection. So, we (demons) whisper in their ear: “Make some gesture of reverence, kneel down, otherwise you are going to be hauled over the coals by the bishop!” That is what we whisper in their ears, so successfully that the bishop does not become at all aware that they are not doing things correctly in their everyday life. But when only the people are there, and there is no bishop nor other superior, then they do not consider themselves small enough in the sight of Him up there, to have to bow down before Him. They have more of the feeling that before Him (He points upward) they can just as well remain standing... that it is of no importance. In the same way, it no longer matters anymore when the people remain seated in the church and pay hardly any attention to the Consecration and remain standing like sentries during the Blessing. It is of no importance; it is only Him up there! (He points upward) We must also say - we have had to say it before: this “aggiornamento” represents a terrible, deadly loss for the people and for the priests. Many people are aware of this, but for a good number, it is fine this way, because it is easier, when one can remain seated during almost the entire Mass, and when things are made easier on all sides. If the people were still obliged to kneel at Mass... as formerly... - in many places, they do kneel - but if everywhere, throughout the whole world, they were still obliged to kneel and to show Him up there the respect which is His due, there would be so many more graces and enlightenment. If they were to get back on their knees and pray very devoutly, they would become aware that the life they are leading is much too easy and too even, for the bishops. E: In the name... tell the truth!

They have more of the feeling that before Him (He points upward) they can just as well remain standing... that it is of no importance. In the same way, it no longer matters anymore when the people remain seated in the church and pay hardly any attention to the Consecration and remain standing like sentries during the Blessing. It is of no importance; it is only Him up there! (He points upward) We must also say - we have had to say it before: this “aggiornamento” represents a terrible, deadly loss for the people and for the priests. Many people are aware of this, but for a good number, it is fine this way, because it is easier, when one can remain seated during almost the entire Mass, and when things are made easier on all sides. If the people were still obliged to kneel at Mass... as formerly... - in many places, they do kneel - but if everywhere, throughout the whole world, they were still obliged to kneel and to show Him up there the respect which is His due, there would be so many more graces and enlightenment. If they were to get back on their knees and pray very devoutly, they would become aware that the life they are leading is much too easy and too even, for the bishops. E: In the name... tell the truth!
