    Is anyone here going to pray and do penance on September 7th (I guess that's today) as the Pope asked?
    R.I.P.
    Please pray for the repose of my soul.

    Today, Sept. 7th, is First Saturday.  Most trads already fast and pray.  And yes, unless we're ignorant or more American than Catholic, we've been praying for our brethren in the middle east for some time now!  
     St. Francis Xavier threw a Crucifix into the sea, at once calming the waves.  Upon reaching the shore, the Crucifix was returned to him by a crab with a curious cross pattern on its shell.

  • What's Francis going to do for penance?  Wear the mozzetta?
    "Be kind; do not seek the malicious satisfaction of having discovered an additional enemy to the Church... And, above all, be scrupulously truthful. To all, friends and foes alike, give that serious attention which does not misrepresent any opinion, does not distort any statement, does not mutilate any quotation. We need not fear to serve the cause of Christ less efficiently by putting on His spirit". (Vermeersch, 1913).

    I didn't know this and I don't see it reflected on any traditional calendars.  How is somebody new to tradition supposed to learn these things?  It hasn't been mentioned in my chapel, not on calendars, or anything.

    Abandon heresy perhaps.
