Europe’s tallest statue of Mary was blessed on August 15 in Konotopie, Poland. During the ceremony, Bishop Krzysztof Wętkowski said the more than 55-meter (180-foot) monument is meant to turn people’s thoughts toward God and serve as a place of prayer.

Sts. Anne and Joachim, parents of the Blessed Virgin Mary and patrons of grandparents, pray for us!

[Saint Adaugoijele ✝️ @JustAdaugoijele]

Today is the first Saturday of the month.
Here is how to make the first Saturday Devotions

The Promises attached to the Five First Saturdays Devotion.
1. Salvation of our own soul

To all those who, on the First Saturday of five consecutive months … fulfill all the conditions requested, I promise to assist them at the hour of death with all the graces necessary for the salvation of their soul. This little devotion practised with a good heart, is then enough to procure infallibly for us, ex opere operato so to speak, as with the sacraments, the grace of final perseverance, of eternal salvation! And this promise is without any exclusion, limitation, restriction. To all who ….. I promise. Heaven for eternity for five Holy Communions!

2. Salvation of sinners

So numerous are the souls which the justice of God condemns for sins committed against Me that I come to ask for reparation. Sacrifice yourself for this intention and pray. (Our Lady to Sister Lucy at Tuy, June 13,1929.) In consideration of this little devotion, They (Jesus and Mary) wish to give the grace of pardon to souls who have had the misfortune of offending the Immaculate Heart of Mary, wrote Sister Lucy in a letter of May, 1930.

3. Peace in the world

Whether the world has war or peace depends on the practice of this devotion, along with the consecration of Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. This is why I desire its propagation so ardently, especially because this is also the will of our dear Mother in Heaven. Sister Lucy, March 19,1939.

Hormonal birth control triggers more than 150 changes in a woman's body. Birth control pills can affect vision, increase breast cancer risk, and Depo-Provera? Vetrenarians won't even give it to dogs. Read the fine print. #WomensHealth #BirthControl #HealthFacts

Need Miraculous Healing?
Say This Prayer to Mary.......

O Mother of Perpetual Help, grant that I may always invoke your most powerful name, the safeguard of the living and the salvation of the dying. O purest and sweetest Mary, may your holy name ever be on my lips. Delay not, Blessed Lady, to come to my aid whenever I call upon you, for in all my needs and temptations I shall never cease to call on you, repeating with confidence your sacred name:
Mary, Mary.
What consolation, sweetness, confidence, and joy fill my soul when I pronounce your holy name or even think of you. I thank God for giving you to me, and for granting you a name so sweet, so powerful, and so lovely. Yet I will not be content merely to speak your name; rather, let my love for you move me always to honor and greet you as my Mother of Perpetual Help.

Hear now my prayers, particularly (mention your petitions).

Hail, Mary, full of grace,
the Lord is with thee.
Blessed art thou amongst women
and blessed is the fruit of thy womb, Jesus.
Holy Mary, Mother of God,
pray for us sinners,
now and at the hour of our death.
Amen.
Our Mother of Perpetual Help, pray for us. Amen

Oración del Buen Humor de Santo Tomás Moro.
Concédeme, Señor, una buena digestión,
y también algo que digerir.
Concédeme la salud del cuerpo,
con el buen humor necesario para mantenerla.
Dame, Señor, un alma santa que sepa aprovechar
lo que es bueno y puro, para que no se asuste ante
el pecado, sino que encuentre el modo de poner
las cosas de nuevo en orden.
Concédeme un alma que no conozca el aburrimiento,
las murmuraciones, los suspiros y los lamentos y no
permitas que sufra excesivamente por ese ser tan
dominante que se llama: YO.
Dame, Señor, el sentido del humor.
Concédeme la gracia de comprender las bromas,
para que conozca en la vida un poco de alegría y
pueda comunicársela a los demás.
Así sea.

Aquí el decálogo:

[Papa León XIV @Pontifex_es]

Desde esta plaza quiero dirigir una palabra clara a quienes se aprovechan de la desesperación, a quienes organizan rutas de muerte, trafican con personas, retienen sus documentos, explotan a los trabajadores, amenazan a las mujeres, engañan a las familias y convierten el sufrimiento ajeno en negocio. ¡Deténganse! ¡Conviértanse! (Mc 1,15) #ViajeApostólico

The living Christ in the most holy Eucharistic Sacrament!

[ACI Prensa @aciprensa]

El testimonio de María García nos conmueve el alma. Tiene 25 años, acaba de pasar por un cáncer y, mientras espera los resultados definitivos de sus pruebas médicas, decidió salir a las calles de Madrid para ver pasar al Papa León XIV.
Lo que ella desea de esta visita es simple y enorme a la vez: “Que vean que la fe no se ha perdido, que la juventud sigue con Dios.”
Si estás viendo este video, únete a nuestra oración por María, por su salud, por los jóvenes, los enfermos y por todos los que necesitan volver a creer que Dios nunca nos abandona.

• Gregor Mendel — Augustinian friar; discovered the laws of inheritance (Mendelian genetics), forming the basis of modern genetics.

• Nicolaus Copernicus — Catholic canon; developed the heliocentric model (Sun-centered solar system), transforming astronomy.

• Christopher Clavius — Jesuit priest; principal mathematician behind the Gregorian calendar reform still used worldwide today.

• Roger Boscovich — Jesuit priest; early theory of atomic structure and force fields, influencing modern physics concepts.

• Angelo Secchi — Jesuit priest; pioneer of astrophysics and first classification system of stars based on spectra.

• Francesco Maria Grimaldi — Jesuit priest; discovered diffraction of light and contributed to wave theory of optics.

• Jean Picard — Catholic priest; first highly accurate measurement of Earth’s radius using modern scientific instruments.

• Nicolas Steno — Catholic bishop; founded stratigraphy (law of superposition), a foundation of modern geology.

Human life in the 1st trimester is amazing:

3 weeks - baby's heart beats 105 times/minute

6 weeks - baby has brain waves

7 weeks - baby kicks & jumps

9 weeks - baby sucks thumb, stretches

The abortion pill kills babies at these ages

Remove it from the market @DrMakaryFDA !

The former Pope’s writings, known for their clarity and depth, form a legacy that will endure through the ages. History will remember his bold decision to resign the papacy when he felt himself unable to fulfill the demands of the office. 3/5
