MaryCast Specials #68 ( 08min) Play – Dr. Mark Miravalle gives a synopsis of the events on March 25 in Rome as many theologians and bishops and even Cardinals  gathered for the Roman Forum sponsored by Inside the Vatican to discuss how opportune the time might be for the proclamation of the 5th Marian Dogma. The panel was unanimous in its conviction that now is the opportune time for the declaration especially as an antidote to the current crisis that seems to be a full out attack on the Church. The event can be viewed at the Inside the Vatican Web Site.

MaryCast Specials #67 ( 07min) Play – Mark Miravalle continues from his previous video where he asks us to defend Pope Benedict and pray for the declaration of the Fifth Marian Dogma, Mary as Coredemptrix, Mediatrix and Advocate.  He notes how it was in a time of life threatening crisis that Pope Pius IX declared the dogma of the Immaculate Conception in 1854 and how the Papacy then enjoyed over a century of growing prestige. Is it a coincidence, then, that as the persecution mounts against Pope Benedict he has started using the title “Mediatrix of Graces” for Mary. Yes, now is the time to pray for this declaration!!

MaryCast Specials #66 ( 09min) Play – Mark Miravalle asks us to defend Pope Benedict and pray for the declaration of the Fifth Marian Dogma, relating Pope Benedict’s persecution to that of Jesus. He points out that it was not until Pope Pius IX was similarly persecuted and had to flee for his life from Rome in 1848 that he declared the dogma of the Immaculate Conception in 1854. The Papacy then enjoyed over a century of growing prestige. Yes, let us pray for this!!

The Papal Basilica of St Paul Outside the Walls (Italian: Basilica Papale di San Paolo fuori le Mura), commonly known as St Paul-without-the-Walls, is one of four churches that are the great ancient major basilicas. The basilica was founded by the Roman Emperor Constantine I over the burial place of Saint Paul, where it was said that, after the Apostle’s execution, his followers erected a memorial, called a cella memoriae. This first edifice was expanded under Valentinian I, in the 370s. In 386, Emperor Theodosius I began the erection of a much larger and more beautiful basilica with a nave and four aisles with a transept; the work including the mosaics was not completed till the pontificate of Leo I (440-461). In the 5th century it was even larger than the Old St. Peter’s Basilica.

Homily #100114 ( 06min) Play – St. Hilary of Poitiers fought the heresy of Arianism in his time. He did this by being true to the Magisterium. As the Catechism says:

Par 85 “The task of giving an authentic interpretation of the Word of God, whether in its written form or in the form of Tradition, has been entrusted to the living teaching office of the Church alone. Its authority in this matter is exercised in the name of Jesus Christ.” This means that the task of interpretation has been entrusted to the bishops in communion with the successor of Peter, the Bishop of Rome.

This simple policy guarantees that we won’t fall into error of personal interpretation whether of scripture as the Protestants do or of Tradition as the ultra Traditionalists do.

Ave Maria! St. Hilary, Bishop and Doctor of the Church – Mass: EF, In Medio Ecclesiae – Readings: 1st: 2ti 4:1-8 – Gsp: mat 5:13-19

Well almost. Starting at 9:00pm tonight EWTN will replay a prerecorded recitation of the rosary by the Pope at St. Mary Major in Rome (one of the 4 Basilicas of Vatican City) and many FI’s will be there because we are in charge of the Sacristy and have our seminary and a couple of friaries in the city. So tune into EWTN at 9:00

Deo Gratias!! Ave Maria!
