Aging is not the problem. Pretending you’re not aging is. We spend half our lives trying to look 25. Meanwhile 25 is somewhere praying they make it to 50. Let’s talk about mortality for a minute. Not in a spooky way. In a sober way. Some of us have flatlined. Some of us have been rolled into operating rooms. Some of us have heard doctors say things that made the room go quiet. I have. And when you have stared at the ceiling wondering if you’ll see your kids again, wrinkles stop being offensive. They start being evidence. Evidence that you survived. Aging is proof of breath. Proof of lessons. Proof that you outlived something that tried to outlive you. We treat gray hair like betrayal. We treat laugh lines like they’re intruders. But those lines are receipts. You laughed. You cried. You worried. You loved hard. You stayed when you could’ve left. You left when you finally got strong enough. Mortality has a way of clarifying things. When you know life is finite, you stop asking, “How do …More
Father Alfonso Avilés, one of two Ecuadorian priests who died while rescuing altar servers from drowning at sea, celebrated Mass in the Roman Rite. According to the Archdiocese of Guayaquil, Fr Avilés and Fr Pedro Anzoátegui rushed into the water during a Lenten parish activity in Playas, on Ecuador's Pacific coast, after two altar servers got into difficulty. Both teenagers survived, but both priests lost their lives in the rescue attempt.
Fr. Alfonso Avilés, who has passed away after saving the life of an altar boy, was drowning in the sea, Ecuador. He was as a defender of the Catholic Tradition, who lived his life in generous service to God and to souls. His final act reflects the charity he preached. He also regularly celebrated TLM. Requiescat in pace.
Eternal rest grant unto Fr. Alfonso Aviles O Lord; ~ May he rest in peace, Amen. ~ May the souls of the faithful departed through the Mercy of God, Rest In Peace, Amen.

I like this man. I have seen interviews with him. Why do our leaders always go out of their way to make us hate people? Because people are so easily duped and brainwashed. And they are full of fear and or hate. Those same people who do that know full well they lie. People don't realize it but they are fully controlled that way and easily manipulated. The only thing I can suggest if you still listen to your governments and fake news and even conservative news, because they lie as well, just do your own research. Go right to the source. The people and countries they condemn. You will find NONE Of it is true. They edit everything and won't tell you the truth because they know people will take their word and won't look into it.

A woman worked at a large commercial meatpacking plant. One afternoon, right at the end of her shift, she stepped into the industrial walk-in freezer to finish up her tasks. Suddenly, the heavy metal door swung shut and latched behind her. She was locked inside. She screamed and pounded on the thick steel door with everything she had, but it was completely useless. Most of the crew had already punched out and headed home for the day, and the deafening hum of the refrigeration units drowned out any noise she made. Five hours later, shivering and on the brink of hypothermia, she had almost given up hope. Suddenly, the heavy freezer door swung open. Standing there was the plant's nighttime security guard, who rushed in and pulled her out, saving her life. Later, after she had warmed up and recovered, she asked the guard why he had bothered to check that specific freezer, especially since it wasn't part of his usual security rounds. The guard looked at her and said: "I've been working at …More
It says: "Bapstism and sinodality, path to sainthood." To me it says water and oil, a path to murkiness... This is the "Casa de la anunciación" or house of the annunciation in the Dominican Republic, a country which has 99% of Christians, this is how the things are right now. This house (which is run by a pious laity community), displays exactly how deep and wide the false church has spread, the chaff no longer hides, it shows proudly their beautiful lies and EVERYONE is sold!!! The abomination of desolation has already happened at the Vatican, yet their beautiful lies spread like cancer all around, while many unsuspecting Catholics OBEY such filth due to a distorted obedience belief. Supposedly, sinodality means walking together, and as the lie gets prettier and bigger, everyone jumps in. Our Lord told us to FLEE into the mountains if we see the abomination of desolation STANDING in the Holy place, the gays marching inside the Vatican was precisely that, the abomination of desolation. …More
"If Anything In This Life Is Certain, [sic] It Is That You Can Kill Anyone" -- Michael Corleone But what is the cost? The Sanhedrin killed someone who turned out to be their messiah. Christians are now God's chosen people!

St. Patrick’s Breastplate prayer: I arise today Through a mighty strength, the invocation of the Trinity, Through belief in the Threeness, Through confession of the Oneness of the Creator of creation.
