Christmas Without Christ - A Message from Servant of God, Catherine Doherty

(Image Source: Madonna House)
Servant of God, Catherine Doherty "lived through the Russian Revolution". She was the founder of Madonna House. Her apostolate continues in Combermere, Ontario, Canada, and includes a monthly newspaper, Restoration. I highly recommend you subscribe to it. The link that follows is a must read for those of us living in these challenging times. Christmas Without Christ, written by Catherine decades ago, was re-published in the December 2021 issue of Restoration. Unfortunately, there is no direct link from that issue of Restoration to it. I did find a nearly identical copy of her article published in December 2004. You can find it here. PLEASE READ AND PASS ALONG!!!

God forbid that our recent exclusion from Church, the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and the sacraments during the pandemic were to be repeated or ever become permanent.

Let us never take His Presence among us for granted!

PRAYER OF ST. CATHERINE OF SIENA

"Eternal Father, all things are possible for You. Although You created us without our assistance, You will not save us unless we help. Therefore, I pray You re-create their wills so that they wish for what they do not wish for: I ask this of Your infinite mercy. You have created us out of nothing. Now that we exist have mercy on us. Re-make the vessel which You created in Your own image and likeness. Bring them back to Your grace through the grace and blood of You Son, the beloved Jesus Christ."
