It is God's will that our very first moment of existence is one of darkness, where we dwell in our mother's womb until we come out into the light. From the moment of our birth, we begin to perceive the world around us, first very poorly and then progressively clearer. At the same time, by God's design, our first contact with reality is with our mothers; we depend on her. This natural order that Our Lord designed reflects the design of the supernatural order, where from the moment of our baptism we come into true contact with our divine mother, the Blessed Virgin Mary, and must remain dependent upon her.

Saturday Memorial of the Blessed Virgin Mary
43 And having fulfilled the days, when they returned, the child Jesus remained in Jerusalem; and his parents knew it not.consummatisque diebus, cum redirent, remansit puer Jesus in Jerusalem, et non cognoverunt parentes ejus. 44 And thinking that he was in the company, they came a day's journey, and sought him among their kinsfolks and acquaintance.Existimantes autem illum esse in comitatu, venerunt iter diei, et requirebant eum inter cognatos et notos. 45 And not finding him, they returned into Jerusalem, seeking him.Et non invenientes, regressi sunt in Jerusalem, requirentes eum. 46 And it came to pass, that, after three days, they found him in the temple, sitting in the midst of the doctors, hearing them, and asking them questions.Et factum est, post triduum invenerunt illum in templo sedentem in medio doctorum, audientem illos, et interrogantem eos. 47 And all that heard him were astonished at his wisdom and his answers.Stupebant autem omnes qui eum audiebant, super prudentia et responsis ejus. 48 And seeing him, they wondered. And his mother said to him: Son, why hast thou done so to us? behold thy father and I have sought thee sorrowing.Et videntes admirati sunt. Et dixit mater ejus ad illum : Fili, quid fecisti nobis sic? ecce pater tuus et ego dolentes quaerebamus te. 49 And he said to them: How is it that you sought me? did you not know, that I must be about my father's business?Et ait ad illos : Quid est quod me quaerebatis? nesciebatis quia in his quae Patris mei sunt, oportet me esse? 50 And they understood not the word that he spoke unto them.Et ipsi non intellexerunt verbum quod locutus est ad eos. 51 And he went down with them, and came to Nazareth, and was subject to them. And his mother kept all these words in her heart.Et descendit cum eis, et venit Nazareth : et erat subditus illis. Et mater ejus conservabat omnia verba haec in corde suo.To commemorate in liturgy the fifteenth centenary of the Council of Ephesus (held in A.D. 431), which vindicated the title of Theotokos or "Mother of God" for our Lady, Pope Pius Xi in the year 1931 instituted this Feast to be observed by the whole Church.

Send us a textApparitions at Laus, France: A Hidden Gem of Marian DevotionIn the rugged, serene landscapes of the French Alps, nestled far from the bustling pilgrim trails of Lourdes or Fatima, lies a lesser-known sanctuary of profound spiritual significance: Laus, France. Here, the Blessed Virgin Mary, under the title of Our Lady of Laus, revealed herself to a humble shepherdess named Benoîte Rencurel over a span of five decades in the 17th and 18th centuries. This sacred site, often overlooked in the grand tapestry of Marian apparitions, holds a treasure trove of divine messages centered on reconciliation, prayer, and the healing power of God's mercy. For those of us at Journeys of Faith, sharing the story of Laus is not just a recounting of history—it's an invitation to delve deeper into the mysteries of faith, to walk where the Mother of God once appeared, and to let her gentle guidance transform our hearts.The apparitions at Laus, approved by the Catholic Church in 2008 after centuries of quiet devotion, stand as a testament to the enduring presence of Mary as a mother and intercessor. Unlike the dramatic, widely publicized events of other Marian sites, the encounters at Laus unfolded with an intimate, almost hidden grace—a slow burn of spiritual awakening that mirrored the personal rediscovery of faith that ignited the mission of our founders, Bob and Penny Lord, back in 1980. Their journey, born from tragedy and renewed through pilgrimage, mirrors the quiet perseverance of Benoîte, who faced skepticism and hardship yet remained steadfast in her mission to spread Our Lady's call to repentance and prayer. Through Journeys of Faith, we aim to uncover these hidden stories of sanctity, bringing Catholics and Christians alike closer to the miracles and messages that shape our belief.As we explore the apparitions of Our Lady of Laus, France, prepare to be inspired by a narrative of divine patience and human fidelity. This is not merely a historical account but a living call to evangelization, urging us to seek reconciliation and to embrace the Blessed Virgin's maternal care. Whether you're a devout pilgrim, a parish educator, or simply a soul yearning for a deeper connection to the divine, the story of Laus offers a path to spiritual renewal. Join us on this journey, as we uncover the sacred echoes of Mary's voice in the mountains of France, and let Journeys of Faith guide you to a place where heaven touched earth.Life of Visionary Benoîte RencurelIn the rugged, windswept valleys of 17th-century France, where faith was both a shield and a lifeline, a humble shepherdess named Benoîte Rencurel emerged as an unlikely vessel of divine grace. Born in 1647 in Saint-Étienne-le-Laus, a remote village in the Alps, Benoîte's early life was marked by grinding poverty and personal loss. Her father died when she was just seven, leaving her family in dire straits, yet even as a child, she carried a quiet, unshakable piety. She spent long hours tending sheep, her only companions the vast silence of the mountains and her whispered prayers to the Blessed Virgin Mary.Click for more infoOpen by Steve Bailey Support the show

Read Online“Amen, amen, I say to you, you will see heaven opened and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.” John 1:51In Heaven, we will see all things as God sees them. That full perspective will be beyond glorious. And among the many things that will amaze us from the perspective of Heaven is the incredibly powerful ways that the celestial beings participate in the bringing forth of the Kingdom of God. The Seraphim, Cherubim, Thrones, Dominions, Virtues, Powers, Principalities, Archangels and Guardian Angels all cooperate with God's grace in ways similar to how every member of an orchestra works together to produce a single piece of beautiful music. God is the conductor, but these celestial beings participate in the grand fulfillment of the will of God, acting as living instruments of His divine grace.Today's feast honors three of the great archangels mentioned in Scripture: Michael, Gabriel and Raphael. The Archangel Michael is described as a protector in the Old Testament Book of Daniel and as one who does battle with satan in the Books of Revelation and Jude. In Revelation, Michael casts satan out of Heaven along with the other fallen angels. The Archangel Gabriel is spoken of also in the Book of Daniel as one who interprets Daniel's vision. In the New Testament, he is identified as the one who appears to the high priest Zechariah while Zechariah is offering sacrifice in the temple. In that appearance, Gabriel revealed to Zechariah that his wife would have a child, even though she was advanced in years. Gabriel is perhaps best known as the one sent to the Blessed Virgin Mary to reveal to her that she will become the mother of the Savior of the World. Lastly, the Archangel Raphael is referred to in the Old Testament Book of Tobit and is said to have been sent to bring healing to Tobit's eyes.As we honor these three archangels, we can be certain that they are three of a countless number of other angelic beings who cooperate with God, bringing forth His grace and His will into our world. Try to imagine that profound truth. Some angelic beings build up the Kingdom of God by devoting their existence to the perpetual worship of God before His throne. The highest of these are the Seraphim. Other angelic beings build up the Kingdom by bringing forth God's grace and truth to us, intervening in our lives in accord with God's will. These are especially the guardian angels. The archangels, three of whom we honor today, especially have the task of communicating to us the most important messages and graces from God. Reflect, today, upon the glorious reality of the whole host of the celestial beings. Specifically call upon the mediation of these three celestial beings whose names we know, Michael, Gabriel and Raphael, as well as upon the mediation of our guardian angels and all others celestial beings. By doing this, we not only entrust ourselves to their loving care, but we also make an act of faith in God by expressing our belief that God has chosen to use these celestial beings to bring forth His Kingdom. By themselves, angels are powerless to act. But since they act only in unison with the will of God, their mediation is as powerful as the grace of God, since it is God Who works through them. Acknowledge them today, call upon their mediation and profess your faith in the glorious work that they do to build up God's Kingdom.Most glorious Archangels Michael, Gabriel and Raphael, please do come to my aid. I entrust myself, my family, our Church and the entire world to your loving mediation. Please bring forth God's grace into our lives, communicate God's Word and His holy Will, protect us from all harm and bring healing to those in need. Angels of God, pray for us.

Discover how figures like St. Benedict, St. Padre Pio, St. Joseph, and Our Lady have been powerful protectors against demons and the powers of darkness.We discuss:Why exorcists turn to certain saints during spiritual combat.The role of the Rosary, Holy Water, the Sacraments, and sacramentals in driving out evil.How the saints model courage in battling demons and what we can learn from their victories.The reality of spiritual warfare and how every Catholic is called to “slay dragons” in daily life.Why the intercession of the Blessed Virgin Mary is considered the most feared weapon against Satan.If you've ever wondered what the Church truly teaches about demons, exorcisms, and spiritual protection, or how the saints can help you overcome temptation, fear, and sin, this conversation will give you practical wisdom and timeless hope.Check out some of Charles' other books on these topics at https://slayingdragonspress.com/
