Ave Maria!

For our Symposium “Mother of the Church” on Marian Coredemption in the National Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe, La Crosse, Wisconsin on August 21, 2010, Luis Cardinal Aponte-Martinez, Archbishop Emeritus of San Juan, Puerto Rico gives the second talk titled “Our Lady of Guadalupe: The Coredemptrix and the New Evangelization”. Cardinal Aponte has been one of the most energetic promoters of the dogma of Mary as Coredemptrix. In this talk he uses his warm humor to draw connections between the great evangelization of the Americas through the apparition of Our Lady of Guadalupe and the promise of a similarly fruitful period of worldwide evangelization in our own time should we honor Mary by declaring the Fifth Dogma. By doing so we will fulfill the desire of Pope JPII for a New Evangelization. He says the fruit will be the reconversion of formerly Christian lands beck to the faith, the conversion of new Christian lands, Christians will be united in humility and the world will have peace all as only a mother can give. He points out that by declaring the Fifth Dogma of Mary as Coredemptrix, Mediatrix and Advocate we are declaring her Mother of the Church and Mother of all Peoples and so we will obtain all the associated motherly spiritual gifts for the whole world. He gives a final exhortation for us to all go out and pray and be active in promoting the dogma to friends, family and even to our pastors and bishops.

Drew Mariani of Relevant Radio was MC of the symposium.

What Does The Prayer Really Say?»Blog Archive » Archbp. Burke describes why he built the Shrine to Our Lady.

Fr. Zuhlsdorf blogs from La Crosse, Wisconsin as he attends the Canon Law Conference and captures on video a talk by Archbishop Raymond Burke about the National Shrine of Our Lady of Guadalupe from which the conference was held. This is most appropriate because he was instrumental in starting and completing this glorious shrine and he mentions that the body of Fr. John Hardon a good friend of the bishop (who’s cause for beatification is in progress) may soon be transferred to the shrine.

You can see our own more visually orientated video on the shrine (which our friars staff)  here and here.

But Archbishop Burke is also here for the Marian Symposium which will be two weeks from today. You can read about here with its great line up of speakers.

Ave Maria!

Well we’ve been very busy here at AirMaria. However, we admit that it has not always been directly posting videos as can be seen from a sparse period in our posting when we got behind on many of our video projects. But we have completed many of the side projects that were holding us back and we’re making up for lost time as you can see by by our many videos in the past week.

We have also gotten behind on fund raising and our budget is showing the strain. We are currently a few hundred dollars in the red and have several operating expenses coming up and there are several capital expenses that we need to make, including essential things like expanded storage. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Administration System

One big side project was our new administration system which is entirely behind the scenes of AirMaria but was essential to handle the growing number of videos which was getting too large to handle on Google Docs. It allows people to contribute from anywhere on the globe and provides many automation features that simplifies the production and publishing of videos especially the homilies. The system is currently online and operational and will be undergoing much fine tuning and many more features will be added.
