In 1958, a few short months before his death, Ven Pope Pius XII approved the Feast of the Holy Face, enshrining it on the Tuesday before Ash Wednesday.
We can consider the Feast of the Holy Face, as one of the final gifts left to the Church by that most holy pontiff.
And considering his great concern about the future of the Church at the end of his life, we should most urgently consider what this meant to him.
So if you are a Pacelli fan, learn about the Holy Face.

I salute you, I adore you, and I love you, O adorable Face of my beloved Jesus, as the noble stamp of the divinity! Completely surrendering my soul to You, I most humbly beg You to stamp this seal upon us all, so that the image of God may once more be reproduced by its imprint in our souls. Amen.
🚨BREAKING: A revolutionary new cancer treatment called Histotripsy is showing incredible promise by literally liquefying tumors using focused sound waves—no surgery, no chemo, and no radiation needed.
Developed by pioneers Dr. Zhen Xu and the late Dr. Charles Cain at the University of Michigan, this FDA-approved technology is now being used at leading hospitals like Johns Hopkins and the Cleveland Clinic.
How it works:
- A robotic arm delivers precise high-intensity ultrasound waves straight to the tumor.
- These waves create tiny gas bubbles inside cancer cells that rapidly expand and collapse.
- The mechanical force destroys the tumor cells, turning the mass into liquid debris that the body naturally clears away.
- It also appears to stimulate the immune system to better recognize and attack remaining cancer cells.
- Because it relies on mechanical disruption rather than heat or radiation, it spares healthy surrounding tissue.
Patients often undergo the quick outpatient procedure and go home the same day. It is currently treating liver tumors, with trials expanding to kidney and brain cancers.
This could be a game-changer in the fight against cancer.
"Reza siempre por la curación del alma, y no tengas miedo de la enfermedad del cuerpo.
Reza por los vivos porque la mayoría de los vivos están muertos... ”
(San Charbel)
“Wear the Scapular devoutly and perseveringly. It is My garment. To be clothed in it means you are continually thinking of Me, and I in turn, am always thinking of you and helping you to secure eternal life.”

THE CHURCH FATHER WHO WROTE THIS IN 107 AD AND IT SILENCES EVERY PROTESTANT ARGUMENT
St. Ignatius of Antioch was a student of the Apostle John. He was arrested and sent to Rome to be eaten by lions.
On the way, he wrote seven letters. In 107 AD, within living memory of the Apostles, he wrote:
“Where the bishop is, there let the multitude of believers be; even as where Jesus is, there is the Catholic Church.” (Letter to the Smyrnaeans, 8:2)
This is the first recorded use of the term “Catholic Church” and it comes from a man who personally knew the Apostle who leaned on Jesus’ chest at the Last Supper.
He also wrote:
“Take note of those who hold heterodox opinions… They abstain from the Eucharist and from prayer, because they do not confess that the Eucharist is the flesh of our Savior Jesus Christ.”
Real Presence of Christ in the Eucharist. The Catholic Church by name. Obedience to bishops in apostolic succession.
107 AD. Not the Council of Trent. Not the Middle Ages.
The next time someone tells you the Catholic Church invented these doctrines centuries later, show them Ignatius.
He wrote this on the way to die for it.
