The Feast of Saint Augustine
A Homily by Fr. Thomas Joseph White, O.P.
Posted by Fr. Gabriel Gillen, O.P. on August 28, 2010
Sandro Botticelli's Saint Augustine in His Cell (1490-92): Galleria degli Uffizi, Florence.
Soon after his conversion, Augustine wrote one of his first works, called the Soliloquies, in which he basically argues that one soul cannot teach another anything. We merely present outward signs to one another through speech, and the inner working of illumination and insight that allows us to coordinate signs with truth: this is the work of God… » More

The Relevance of St. Pius X
Homily for the Memorial of St. Pius X by Rev. Br. Hyacinth Marie Cordell, O.P., August 21, 2010
Posted by Br. Peter Martyr Joseph Yungwirth, O.P. on August 23, 2010
Leo XIII made the Church credible in the eyes of the world. He showed mastery in international diplomacy, and was respected-even admired-by liberal rulers around the world. But at the end of his long pontificate, it was felt by many that the Church needed a more spiritual focus... above all, led by the example and preaching of the pope himself. There… » More

Saint Rose of Lima
A Reflection by Gerry Lessard, O.P.
Posted by Fr. Gabriel Gillen, O.P. on August 23, 2010
José Antolinez's St Rose of Lima before the Madonna: Szépmûvészeti Múzeum, Budapest.
The Dominican Saint Rose of Lima was baptized Isabel after her grandmother in 1586, but probably because an Indian servant girl used to call her "my little rose" the nickname stuck. Early in life, Rose demonstrated a desire to prove her love for God by penance, and after awhile, her mortifications became heroic. By the age of 5, she had made a secret… » More

Saint Ignatius of Loyola
A Reflection by Gerry Lessard, O.P.
Posted by Fr. Gabriel Gillen, O.P. on July 31, 2010
Andrea Pozzo's "Altar of St Ignatius Loyola" (1695-99): Il Gesù, Rome.
Saint Ignatius of Loyola was born in a castle around 1491 and baptized Inigo Lopez de Racalde. He was Basque, a member of that unique race in northern Spain that had isolated itself from every blood that ever ran through Europe. During a war with France, Ignatius bravely held a citadel with a few troops for 6 days until a bullet ricocheted off a wall… » More

A Triumph of Grace
Homily for the Memorial of St. Martha by Rev. Br. Hyacinth Marie Cordell, O.P., given at St. Louis Bertrand Church in Louisville
Posted by Br. Peter Martyr Joseph Yungwirth, O.P. on July 30, 2010
Martha and Mary as depicted by Bl. Fra Angelico in his "Agony in the Garden"
St. Martha is a saint for our times. She is a saint for those who easily get anxious and worried and distracted... for those of us who easily get preoccupied with work, and duties, and our families. She is a saint for people who are busy. She is a saint for us. Interestingly, we meet St. Martha at three points in the Gospel. And in these three points,… » More
