Where True Joys Are Found
4th Sunday after Easter As we approach the feast of Our Blessed Lord’s Ascension, our holy Mother Church prepares our minds and hearts for the moment when He will no longer be among us in a visible manner.

The Hard And Wholesome Work of Holiness

St Joseph the Worker On this first day of the month of May, which is traditionally the month of Mary, Holy Mother Church puts before our eyes the figure of her most chaste spouse St Joseph.
