25 years ago Steve Bollman received the inspiration to found Paradisus Dei from Our Lady at Lourdes. Our Lady remains our guide to this day.

On the Feast of Our Lady of Lourdes, we remember how God revealed His mercy through the humility of St. Bernadette, inviting the world to prayer, repentance, and trust in His healing love.

“Now, Master, you may let your servant go in peace… for my eyes have seen your salvation.” — Luke 2:29–30

On the Feast of the Presentation of the Lord, Simeon encounters Jesus not as a miracle-worker, but as a child yet he recognizes the Savior immediately. This quiet moment reminds us that Christ’s power lies not in what He does, but in who He is.

Watch Episode 5 of the Joyful Mysteries, which reflects on today’s feast day and invites us to recognize Christ in humility and faith.

Today we celebrate St. John Bosco, patron saint of youth, educators, and families and one of the patron saints of Paradisus Dei. A priest who believed holiness is built through joy, love, and everyday life.

“Where is the newborn King of the Jews? We saw his star at its rising and have come to do him homage.” — Matthew 2:2

On the Epiphany of Our Lord, we celebrate Christ revealed to the nations. Like the Magi, we are invited to follow the light God places before us, offering our hearts in worship and trust as we encounter the Savior.

May the light of Christ guide your steps, deepen your faith, and draw you ever closer to Him who makes Himself known to all.
