Read Online“I am baptizing you with water, for repentance, but the one who is coming after me is mightier than I. I am not worthy to carry his sandals. He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire. His winnowing fan is in his hand. He will clear his threshing floor and gather his wheat into his barn, but the chaff he will burn with unquenchable fire.” Matthew 3:11–12This passage comes just before Jesus is baptized and begins His public ministry. John the Baptist had been ministering in the desert of Judea, preaching, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand!” Many came to him to be baptized with a baptism of repentance. But when John saw many scribes and Pharisees coming to him, he said, “You brood of vipers! Who warned you to flee from the coming wrath? Produce good fruit as evidence of your repentance.” The passage above is John's warning to them—and to us—about what will happen if we fail to repent.At that time, when wheat was harvested, it was left to dry. Then, a winnowing fan was used to blow the wheat and chaff into the air. The lighter chaff would blow away, while the grains of wheat would fall to the ground to be gathered, milled into flour, and used for baking. John uses this familiar image to depict what Jesus will do with the righteous and the wicked. The righteous are like the grains of wheat that will be gathered and brought to Heaven. The wicked are like the chaff that, once separated from the righteous, will burn in the unquenchable fire of hell.Though it is comforting to speak of the glories of Heaven and to anticipate being brought there by our Lord, it is necessary to also consider the reality of the unquenchable fires of hell. Pondering the reality of those unquenchable fires is something we should not neglect.In his spiritual classic, The Spiritual Exercises, Saint Ignatius of Loyola presents a format for a thirty-day directed silent retreat, considered by many to be the ideal retreat experience. During the first week of that retreat, the retreatant focuses primarily upon mortal sin and its consequences—the unquenchable fires of hell. Why would Saint Ignatius begin his retreat this way? Because he understood that the foundation of our growth in union with God is repentance, and repentance requires an honest and thorough examination of sin and its consequences.Reflect today on the unquenchable fires of hell, and allow yourself to foster a burning desire to flee from every sin that leads to that end. As we enter the second week of the penitential season of Advent, ponder this warning from Saint John the Baptist. Hear him speak those words directly to you. We must fear sin and avoid it, as much as we want to avoid the unquenchable fires of hell. Start with this foundational truth, so that having fostered deep repentance, you are ready to turn your heart and mind toward the glorious promise of Heaven. Jesus, our Just Judge, You hold the winnowing fan in Your sacred hand and separate the righteous from the sinner. Please grant me the grace to see my sin clearly, so that I may humbly acknowledge it and turn from it with all my might. May I build this foundation of repentance during Advent, so that Christmas becomes an even greater time of union with You. Jesus, I trust in You.Image via Adobe StockSource of content: catholic-daily-reflections.comCopyright © 2025 My Catholic Life! Inc. All rights reserved. Used with permission via RSS feed.

Friends of the Rosary,Today, December 3, the Church celebrates the feast of St. Francis Xavier (1506-1552), one of the Church's most illustrious missionaries.Born in the castle of Xavier in Navarre, Spain, in 1525, he was from a noble Basque family. In 1534, he went to Paris, where he taught philosophy after obtaining his master's degree, met St. Ignatius of Loyola, and was enrolled as one of the first seven Jesuits.With Ignatius, he received Holy Orders in Venice in 1537. In 1540, he was sent to evangelize India. He labored in western India, the island of Ceylon, Malacca, the Molucca Islands, the island of Mindanao (Philippines), and Japan.This saint was proclaimed patron of foreign missions and of all missionary works by Pope St. Pius X on March 25, 1904.Come, Holy Spirit, come!To Jesus through Mary!Here I am, Lord; I come to do your will.Please give us the grace to respond with joy!+ Mikel Amigot w/ María Blanca | RosaryNetwork.com, New YorkEnhance your faith with the new Holy Rosary University app:Apple iOS | New!

Tra i tanti episodi prodigiosi della vita di san Francesco Saverio ve n'è uno che ci ricorda l'amore per la giustizia divina che sempre ebbero i santi: il castigo che egli invocò dal Cielo sull'isola di Tolo, caduta nell'apostasia.San Francesco Saverio, nato nel 1506, da nobile famiglia, nel castello di Xavier in Navarra, studiò a Parigi, dove l'incontro con Ignazio di Loyola cambiò la sua vita: era uno studente brillante, destinato al successo accademico, ma fu conquistato dalle parole del futuro fondatore dei Gesuiti: «A cosa serve, Francesco conquistare il mondo, se si perde l'anima?». Ordinato sacerdote, partecipò alla nascita della Compagnia di Gesù e nel 1540 fu inviato da sant'Ignazio come missionario nelle Indie portoghesi, partendo improvvisamente al posto di un confratello ammalato. Divenne l'apostolo delle Indie.

In today's episode, I sit down with artist Kimberly Castrodale to talk about her winding path from special education teacher to full-time artist, and how motherhood, loss, and everyday life continue to shape her work. Kimberly shares how she discovered her creative identity, embraced a slower evolving style, found meaning in florals, and learned to trust her own rhythm—even when it didn't match what other artists say you “should” do. We dive into:– How she blended teaching, motherhood, and art before going full-time– The story behind her Wonder Collection and how loss transformed her creative practice– Why florals became her signature (and why she hesitated at first)– How she uses Instagram, her newsletter, and in-person shows to grow her audience– The surprising reason she reduced her studio time—and made better art– Her experience getting into major shows like Loyola and Spotlight on Art– The emotional rollercoaster of being an artist (and how she rides it)– The power of artist friendships, community, and not doing it alone If you're an artist craving clarity, connection, or permission to build your practice your way, this conversation is full of honest insights, heart, and encouragement.

When you say “yes” to something you genuinely believed God was asking of you—a mission trip, graduate school, even becoming a FOCUS missionary—what do you do when later everything feels too heavy, too complicated, or simply not what you expected? In this episode, Jessica sits down with Fr. John Ezratty to explore the tension between commitment, freedom, and discernment through the lens of St. Ignatius of Loyola.Together they walk through real situations missionaries and students face: • What if I discerned something well, but now I feel overwhelmed and want to step back? • What if I didn't pray about a commitment beforehand—am I still bound to it? • Can difficult circumstances be a sign that God is redirecting me? • How do I know when perseverance is holy… and when letting go is faithful?Drawing from Ignatian wisdom, Fr. John offers practical steps, prayerful tools, and spiritual clarity for anyone wrestling with a “yes” that suddenly feels uncertain. Whether you're tempted to break a commitment or unsure what God is communicating through your current season, this conversation will help you discern with peace, freedom, and maturity.Fr. John Ignatius Ezratty is a priest with the Archdiocese of Denver. He is also a popular speaker at SEEK and a former FOCUS national chaplain.

Saints, even the most holy, needed the assistance of others, mentors, to help them grow in holiness and guide them in the Faith. Today, young people especially need the guidance of mentors to educate them and accompany them on their journey of holiness and sanctity. This blogcast explores “Mentors for Saints" from the Ad Infinitum blog, written by Brendan Burtis and read by Fatima Monterrubio Cruess.One of the topics the 2018 Synod on Young People, the Faith, and Vocational Discernment sought to address was the role of mentorship in the development of the spiritual life. In a time when so many of us seek to know more about the faith and struggle to find faithful examples in the world, the topic of mentorship is extraordinarily important in nourishing young Christians in the faith. The Instrumentum Laboris for the Synod, published in March, brings up two major points that address the roles a mentor has today. The first, and most talked about, is that of accompaniment. The other is education, which is especially important in a time when we live in an increasingly secular culture. These two facets of mentorship are different and cannot always be fulfilled by one person. For this reason, the contribution of the community of faith is incredibly important.In my life, faith education came from many sources, but none was more important than my Confirmation teacher who was also my youth basketball coach and the father of one of my best friends. Throughout my life, my mentor helped me to learn and grow more in my faith by inviting me to events and men's conferences. In my Confirmation classes, he showed the beauty of the Faith and helped me understand the truth that flows from the Church's teachings. Like many young people, I didn't fully take advantage of a great mentor when I had the chance. But his presence in my life continues today, and his example is a continual witness of what it means to be a faithful Christian.When we look at the life of a saint, we often see the impact other peers, mentors, or saints had in their life. St. Augustine, for example, had two great saintly mentors: St. Monica (his mother) and St. Ambrose. St. Monica, who prayed tirelessly for the conversion of her son, showed the young Augustine an example of the Christian faith in a lived way. Augustine only fully appreciated this until after his conversion. St. Ambrose provided Augustine—who was struggling with his dualist view of the universe—with the truths found in the Christian faith, which strengthened Augustine and propelled him to ultimately become a Doctor of the Church.In my life, my friends and peers have been incredible examples of accompaniment. An intimate and baseline knowledge about me makes it so much easier for a friend or peer to understand where I am in life and how to proceed. Peer mentorship, in my experience, is only possible because of the tireless effort that my parents, teachers, ministers etc. have put into nurturing me in understanding and action in the Faith. Without those people I wouldn't have had the faithful and honest advice that is always so valuable to making me a better Catholic. Just as Jesus sent out his Apostles two by two, we share in the Apostles' mission to evangelize the world and we must rely on those who share our mission for their support in life.Saints are often friends with other saints. Two men who followed in the footsteps of the Apostles in fraternity and holiness were St. Ignatius of Loyola and St. Francis Xavier. In the early days of the Jesuit Order, these saints relied on one another for the strength to persevere in promoting the mission of the Society of Jesus. Roommates at the University of Paris, their friendship was centered around Jesus and informed by their studies in Theology. The union of intimate friendship and a well-formed Christian mind creates incredible fruits, which are seen clearly in the success of the Jesuit Order in the missionary work in Europe and around the world.A revitalized sense of mentorship among Christians is so necessary in a time when the world directs us away from God and into itself. The responsibility for educating and accompanying young people falls on old and young alike. So many young people search for true meaning. It is our responsibility as Christians to take their hand and walk them closer to faith by showing them the truth in the Church's teachings.The 2018 Synod is so important because it refocuses on the universal call to holiness. We are called to invite young people into the fullness of the Faith through mentorship, educating them in the fullness of her truth and accompanying them through their struggles—always striving to bring each other closer to Christ along the way.Questions for Reflection: Do you have any examples of mentorship in your own life? How can you accompany and educate those around you in the example of Christ?For more resources on the Synod on Young People, the Faith, and Vocational Discernment, please click here. Author:Brendan Burtis is studying International Economics & Finance at the Catholic University of America. Resources:Listen to On Mission podcast Catholic Feast Days AppRead the Ad Infinitum blog  Follow us:The Catholic Apostolate CenterThe Center's podcast websiteInstagramFacebookApple PodcastsSpotify Fr.

In today's Gospel, Fr. Chris Alar reflects on what it truly means to be a faithful steward of the gifts God has entrusted to us. The steward in the Gospel, much like the prodigal son, squandered what was not his. But how often do we do the same? Our time, our treasure, and our talents—none of these belong to us. Everything we possess is a gift from God, and one day, we will give an account for how we used them.St. Ignatius of Loyola once said that if you only have time for one prayer a day, let it be an examination of conscience. Every evening, we should look at our words, thoughts, and deeds—have they honored God, or have we wasted His graces? Catholics are sometimes outdone in generosity by others, but Fr. Chris reminds us that our stewardship extends far beyond money. We are called to wisely use the spiritual graces received in Baptism, Confirmation, and the Sacraments to build up the Kingdom of God.Everything—our freedom, our relationships, even our suffering—can be invested for eternal gain. “To whom much is given, much is expected.” (Luke 12:48) God expects us to use His gifts for the salvation of souls, including the souls in Purgatory. When we pray for them, we make an eternal investment in the treasury of grace—a divine account from which both they and we can draw. As St. Faustina wrote, “Suffering is the greatest treasure on earth. It purifies the soul.” (Diary, 342)Fr. Chris and the Marian Fathers pray nightly for the deceased, especially during this first week of November, when the Church grants special indulgences for visiting cemeteries. When we pray for the dead, we gain spiritual riches that last forever—far more valuable than anything we could earn in this life. The world plans for retirement; the faithful plan for eternity. True wealth lies not in what we keep, but in what we give away for love of God and neighbor.Even when criticized or misunderstood, Fr. Chris calls us to persevere in charity. The mission of the Marian Fathers is to proclaim Divine Mercy to the world—to never stop teaching truth with love, even amid suffering or ridicule. Let us stand united as Marian Helpers, offering prayers, sacrifices, and mercy to build up that eternal treasury of grace.To deepen your understanding of the Sacraments and how they pour grace into our lives, get Understanding the Sacraments by Fr. Chris Alar at ShopMercy.org.

DateNovember 2, 2025SynopsisIn this sermon, we explore how St. Ignatius of Loyola—once a vain soldier obsessed with glory—discovered that faith isn't about achievement but friendship with God. Through his story and the encounter between Jesus and blind Bartimaeus, we're invited to consider Jesus's tender question: "What do you want me to do for you?" This first installment of the In Good Company series reminds us that when we embrace our need for divine friendship rather than trying to earn our way to God, our vision is restored and we're empowered to "set the world on fire" with love.About The Local ChurchFor more information about The Local Church, visit our website.
