Memorial of Saints Marcellinus and Peter | June 2
⁣
At every Mass where the First Eucharistic Prayer is proclaimed, two names are spoken aloud: Marcellinus. Peter.
⁣
A priest and an exorcist, martyred in Rome under Diocletian around 304 AD. Led to their ex*****on by a man who would later convert and carry their story to Pope Damasus himself.
⁣
Constantine built a basilica over their tomb and placed his mother's burial there... and the Church has never stopped saying their names.

Memorial of St. Justin Martyr | June 1
⁣
Born a pagan in Samaria, Justin spent his early life moving from one school of philosophy to the next, searching for something that could hold the weight of ultimate truth. None of it satisfied.
⁣
The turning point came in a conversation with an elderly stranger near the sea, who told him to set aside the Greeks and read the Hebrew prophets instead.
⁣
He did and he spent the rest of his life defending in writing, openly, before the most powerful empire on earth what he learned.
⁣
Not from a safe distance. He lived and taught in Rome itself.
⁣
In 165 AD, under Marcus Aurelius, he was arrested, tried and beheaded alongside his students for refusing to offer sacrifice to the emperor.
⁣
A philosopher who found the truth he was looking for... and paid the price the Roman Empire charged for it.

"Today I put on a terrible strength, invoking the Trinity, confessing the Three with faith in the One as I face my Maker." ~ St. Patrick's breastplate
Today is Trinity Sunday. Father, Son and Holy Spirit: one God, three Persons, eternal love. The Catechism calls the Trinity “the central mystery of Christian faith and life.” In today’s Gospel, that mystery is revealed as love: “God so loved the world that he gave his only Son.”
⁣
Glory be to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit.

St. Lawrence was a deacon in Rome during a time of vicious persecution.
⁣
When Roman authorities demanded the “treasures of the Church,” Lawrence gathered the poor, the sick, the widows and the vulnerable, then presented them as the Church’s true treasure.
⁣
St. Lawrence, pray for us.

St. Peter gives the Church a name today: “a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people of his own.”
⁣
That is what Baptism does...we become newly adopted sons and daughters of God, a member of His Church and a member of this royal priesthood.
⁣
We are not anonymous in the Church.
You are members of a royal priesthood and a holy nation. And we are His own people.

Ordinary Time is back. Which means most of us are back to ordinary things: work, dishes, emails, school events, appointments, errands, parish meetings, and wondering what’s for supper.
⁣
And... that is where most holiness is built!
⁣
The Christian life is usually formed in the small repeated choices: patience when we’re tired, prayer when we’re distracted, forgiveness when we’d rather keep score, generosity when it costs a little more than expected.

Heavenly Father,
⁣
On this Memorial Day, we pray for those who courageously laid down their lives for the cause of freedom. May the example of their sacrifice inspire in us the selfless love of your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ.
⁣
Bless the families of our fallen troops, and fill their homes and their lives with your strength and peace.
⁣
In union with people of goodwill of every nation, embolden us to answer the call to work for peace and justice and, thus, seek an end to violence and conflict around the globe.
⁣
We pray through Christ our Lord. Amen.

“Behold, your mother.” (John 19:27). These words are spoken from the Cross.
⁣
"... thus the blessed Virgin Mary, after participating in the redeeming sacrifice of the Son, and in such an intimate way as to deserve to be proclaimed by Him the Mother not only of His disciple John but - may we be allowed to affirm it - of mankind which he in some way represents,(21) now continues to fulfill from heaven her maternal function as the cooperator in the birth and development of divine life in the individual souls of redeemed men."

~Pope St. Paul VI

🔥 The Fire that Changes Everything.
⁣
Today is Pentecost. For fifty days, we have celebrated the Resurrection, but today that Resurrection becomes a mission.
⁣
The Apostles began this morning behind locked doors. They were a group defined by their past... their fears, their failures and their uncertainty. But when the Holy Spirit descended with the sound of a rushing wind and the appearance of fire, the "locked room" of the early Church was blown wide open.
