“He [Satan] will set up a counter-Church which will be the ape of the Church because, he the devil, is the ape of God. It will have all the notes and characteristics of the Church, but in reverse and emptied of its divine content. It will be a mystical body of the anti-Christ that will in all externals resemble the mystical body of Christ. In desperate need for God, whom he nevertheless refuses to adore, modern man in his loneliness and frustration will hunger more and more for membership in a community that will give him enlargement of purpose, but at the cost of losing himself in some vague collectivity.”
“Who is going to save our Church? Not our bishops, not our priests and religious. It is up to you, the people. You have the minds, the eyes, and the ears to save the Church. Your mission is to see that your priests act like priests, your bishops act like bishops.”

That way I have steady income I can plan on, and you wind up regularly on my list of benefactors for whom I pray and for whom I periodically say Holy Mass.
In view of the rapidly changing challenges I now face, I would like to add more $10/month subscribers. Will you please help?

"But if, in any layman who is indeed imbued with literature, ignorance of the Latin language, which we can truly call the 'catholic' language, indicates a certain sluggishness in his love toward the Church, how much more fitting it is that each and every cleric should be adequately practiced and skilled in that language!" - Pius XI
"Let us realize that this remark of Cicero (Brutus 37, 140) can be in a certain way referred to [young lay people]: 'It is not so much a matter of distinction to know Latin as it is disgraceful not to know it.'" - St. John Paul II
Grant unto thy Church, we beseech Thee, O merciful God, that She, being gathered together by the Holy Ghost, may be in no wise troubled by attack from her foes. O God, who by sin art offended and by penance pacified, mercifully regard the prayers of Thy people making supplication unto Thee,and turn away the scourges of Thine anger which we deserve for our sins. Almighty and Everlasting God, in whose Hand are the power and the government of every realm: look down upon and help the Christian people that the heathen nations who trust in the fierceness of their own might may be crushed by the power of thine Arm. Through our Lord Jesus Christ, Thy Son, who liveth and reigneth with Thee in the unity of the Holy Ghost, God, world without end. R. Amen.

Ooohhhhhhhh, Father! They are all beautiful, but that last one is breathtaking. Gratias!
I gotta ask now. The lighting – where was that light coming from? That’s what makes it so stunning.
Father, Father, Father…
Have mercy on our poor souls. ;)
Dearest Father, thank you for gracing us all with such beautiful images especially the final Eucharistic image. Ave verum Corpus!
Wow, did you take those? Amazing images.
That last one – it gave me shivers – copyright it at once.
I think it captures the “mystery” better than any words, English or Latin.
Ave Verum Corpus – indeed the best name for this photo.
Let’s pray for the Universal Indult!
The Tridentine Mass is wonderful!
Father: The last photo looks like a Caravaggio.
Father: I just have to add my comment to the others…rarely have I seen such beautiful photographs!!! Their beauty is spiritual as well as temporal. Thank you!!!
That last one is breathtaking! Where was that light coming from?
Priceless!
Magnificent, dear Father! Bravissimo!
Sidney: you wrote: “The Tridentine Mass is wonderful!”
It sure is. However, the photo of the priest giving Holy Communion could very well have been taken at a Novus Ordo Mass. There is nothing especially “Tridentine” about it. As a matter of fact, you could probably take it any Sunday at my home parish back in St. Paul where the Novus Ordo is used. They even have precisely the same vestments at St. Agnes, green, same material, made here in Rome. Many of the women wear chapel veils and the servers use patens for Communion.
Father, I live in Brazil, and here we can’t see that anymore, we don’t have
vestments like that, the women don’t use chapels veils, the servers don’t
use patens for Communion! So, for me it’s more Tridentine than the
Missale Romanum of 1962!
Thank you for the photos, and if I go to St. Paul sometime in the future, I’ll
take a mass at St. Agnes…
Beautiful photographs
Father – may I please post that last one on my blog with a link back to this post?
It’s stunning!
Question: Who is the priest offering this Mass? Just curious.
Father, you have some wonderful pictures on this blog. Is there some way you can make them available in higher resolution for us? Please?
Is the priest in the photograph a lesser prelate? I wonder why he is wearing a red-coloured insert on the cuffs of his alb.
Yes beautiful photographs. I would love to see another series with the celebrant wearing very ample vestments.
