The conciliar dicastery for the so-called “synod of bishops” has issued a new document to reaffirmed unrepentant sinners in their lives of wickedness.

Despite all their denials to the contrary, conciliar revolutionaries have produced a document that is nothing other than an apologia for situation ethics.

Such men clearly do not believe in the true God of Divine Revelation, the Most Holy Trinity, but in a false god of their own perverse imaging as God is mutable who changes with the “times.”

Part two of this commentary will appear tomorrow, May 7, 2026, the Feast of Saint Stanislaus.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint John the Evangelist, pray for us.

This is a republished version of a reflection on the saintly life and work of  the great Dominican, Pope Saint Pius X, who is indeed quite a contrast to the life and the work of the conciliar revolutionaries. 

No, I could not complete my next original article yesterday. However, I was working it until just a short time before I began revising this reflection. Manana? I hope so.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Pope Saint Pius V pray for us.

Given the rapid pace of dit for publicatievelopments, I had to tear up several versions of this commentary before finalizing it for publication at this time on Monday, May 4, 2026, the Feast of Saint Monica, the mother of Saint Augustine.

With this commentary out of the way, therefore, I turn my attention to other matters and thus it is that a new article should appear by tomorrow morning, Tuesday, May 5, 2026, the Feast of Pope Saint Pius V.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us,

Saint Monica, pray for us.

Saint Augustine, pray for us.

This is a brief reflection of the Finding of the Holy Cross by Saint Helena.

We must be ever aware of the fact that Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ will bestow all manner of crosses upon us each day. It is essential for us to ask Our Lady to send us the graces we need to lift high the cross and to remember that no matter the size of the cross nor the length of time we are called to bear it, life is short, eternity is forever. Redemptive suffering is the path to our sanctification and salvation.

Ave Crux, Spes Unica!

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Pope Saint Alexander and Saints Juvenal, Eventius, and Theodulus, pray for us.

I am offering to you today a brief reflection on Saint Athanasius of Alexandria, whose feast is celebrated today, May 2, 2026, the First Saturday in the month of Our Lady, May.

Thank you for your patience as I continue to revise my next original commentary in light of various developments.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Athanasius, pray for us.

Today, Friday May 1, 2026, is the Feast of Saints Philip and James in fully traditional Catholic chapels where the General Roman Calendar of 1954 is followed (it is the Feast of Saint Joseph the Worker in those chapels following the calendar in place at the time of the death of Pope Pius XII on October 9, 1958

Today’s article is a slight revision and republication of a very brief and wholly inadequate reflection on the life of the great mystic, stigmatist and spiritual directress of souls, Saint Catherine of Siena, T.O.P., whose feast day is the day after that of the Protomartyr of the Order of Preachers, Saint Peter of Verona (Saint Peter Martyr).

Saint Catherine was calumniated during her life, and she was blamed for having precipitated the Great Western Schism by convincing Pope Gregory XI to return to return to Rome in 1378. She suffered all such calumny with joy.

What’s our excuse for grumbling and/or murmuring about our crosses and the state of chaos in which we live in this time of apostasy and betrayal?

Remember, everything thing that happens to us has been ordained by the hand of God Himself with exquisite perfection. Saint Catherine of Siena never lost an opportunity to suffer well. Indeed, she begged to suffer more and more for love of Our Blessed Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. So should we.

The need to raise six hundred dollars remains. Please consider making a non-tax-deductible gift if it possible for you to do so.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us.

Saint Catherine of Siena, T.O.P., pray for us.

Let me dispense with the preliminaries concerning the false, heretical, and schismatic nature of the Anglican sect:

Today is the Octave of the Solemnity of Saint Joseph in those chapels observing the General Roman Calendar of 1954, which falls thie year, 2026, on he feast of the protomartyr of the Order of Preachers, Saint Peter of Verona, who is known more commonly as Saint Peter Martyr.

Time has been spent to revise this brief reflection of the life and holy martyrdom of this great Dominican, who hated error in his childhood as a result of being brought up by parents who were Manicheans. Saint Peter Martyr loved the Holy Faith, and it was this love that prompted him to accept his martyrdom with serenity as he wrote "Credo in Unum Deum" in his very own blood as he fell to the ground after a heretic had stabbed him.

An original commentary will appear within twenty minutes of this posting. 

As explained a few days ago, I need to raise six hundred dollars very urgently. No one has responded this far. Thus, please consider making a non-tax-deductible financial gift as soon as possible, especially if you have not done so for a while. Thank you.

Our Lady of the Rosary, pray for us. 

Saint Joseph, pray for us.

Saint Peter Martyr, pray for us.

The appendices contain Dom Prosper Gueranger's reflections on Saint Paul of the Cross, the Founder of the Congregation of the Passion, and on Saint Vitalis, the martyr who was the father of Saints Gervase and Protase.

I hope to have my commentary about Robert Leo Prevost/Leo XIV's meeting with Sarah Mullally posted by this time tomorrow, Wednesday, April 28, 2026, the Octave of the Solemnity of Saint Joseph and the Commemoration of Saint Peter of Verona, O.P., the Protomartyr of the Order of Preachers.
