Totus tuus (“completely yours”) was Louis's personal motto; Pope John Paul II chose it as his episcopal motto. Born in the Breton village of Montfort, close to Rennes, France, as an adult Louis identified himself by the place of his baptism instead of his family name, Grignion. After being educated by the Jesuits and the Sulpicians, he was ordained a diocesan priest in 1700. Soon he began preaching parish missions throughout western France. His years of ministering to the poor prompted him to travel and live very simply, sometimes getting him into trouble with Church authorities. In his preaching, which attracted thousands of people back to the faith, Father Louis recommended frequent, even daily, Holy Communion—not the custom then!—and imitation of the Virgin Mary's ongoing acceptance of God's will for her life. Louis founded the Missionaries of the Company of Mary, for priests and brothers, and the Daughters of Wisdom, who cared especially for the sick. His book True Devotion to the Blessed Virgin has become a classic explanation of Marian devotion. Louis died in Saint-Laurent-sur-Sèvre, where a basilica has been erected in his honor. He was canonized in 1947, and his liturgical feast is celebrated on April 28. Reflection Like Mary, Louis experienced challenges in his efforts to follow Jesus. Opposed at times in his preaching and in his other ministries, Louis knew with Saint Paul, “Neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God, who causes the growth” (1 Corinthians 3:7). Any attempt to succeed by worldly standards runs the risk of betraying the Good News of Jesus. Mary is “the first and most perfect disciple,” as the late Sulpician Father Raymond Brown described her.

Homily for the Memorial of Saint Louis Mary de Montfort, priest St. Louis Marie de Montfort was a French priest who is remembered for his love for the Blessed Mother, and for being the author of the classic book True Devotion to Mary. Within that great work is a prayer where St. Louis writes to Mary: “Totus tuus ego sum et omnia mea tua sunt”—“I am totally yours and all that I have is yours.” With these words, St. Louis not only expresses his love for Mary but his desire to belong completely to God like her and with her. Louis believed that this Marian spirituality of “Totus tuus . . . totally yours” is “the most perfect of all devotions” because “it conforms, unites, and consecrates us most perfectly to Jesus Christ”

1. Hace ciento sesenta años se publicaba una obra destinada a convertirse en un clásico de la espiritualidad mariana. San Luis María Grignion de Montfort compuso el a comienzos del año 1700, pero el manuscrito permaneció prácticamente desconocido durante más de un siglo. Finalmente, en 1824 fue descubierto casi por casualidad, y en 1843, cuando se publicó, tuvo un éxito inmediato, revelándose como una obra de extraordinaria eficacia en la difusión de la "verdadera devoción" a la Virgen santísima. A mí personalmente, en los años de mi juventud, me ayudó mucho la lectura de este libro, en el que "encontré la respuesta a mis dudas", debidas al temor de que el culto a María, "si se hace excesivo, acaba por comprometer la supremacía del culto debido a Cristo" (Don y misterio, BAC 1996, p. 43). Bajo la guía sabia de san Luis María comprendí que, si se vive el misterio de María en Cristo, ese peligro no existe. En efecto, el pensamiento mariológico de este santo "está basado en el misterio trinitario y en la verdad de la encarnación del Verbo de Dios" (ib.). La Iglesia, desde sus orígenes, y especialmente en los momentos más difíciles, ha contemplado con particular intensidad uno de los acontecimientos de la pasión de Jesucristo referido por san Juan: "Junto a la cruz de Jesús estaban su madre y la hermana de su madre, María, mujer de Cleofás, y María Magdalena. Jesús, viendo a su madre y junto a ella al discípulo a quien amaba, dijo a su madre: "Mujer, ahí tienes a tu hijo". Luego dijo al discípulo: "Ahí tienes a tu madre". Y desde aquella hora el discípulo la acogió en su casa" (Jn 19, 25-27). A lo largo de su historia, el pueblo de Dios ha experimentado este don hecho por Jesús crucificado: el don de su Madre. María santísima es verdaderamente Madre nuestra, que nos acompaña en nuestra peregrinación de fe, esperanza y caridad hacia la unión cada vez más intensa con Cristo, único salvador y mediador de la salvación (cf. Lumen gentium, 60 y 62). Como es sabido, en mi escudo episcopal, que es ilustración simbólica del texto evangélico recién citado, el lema Totus tuus se inspira en la doctrina de san Luis María Grignion de Montfort (cf. Don y misterio, pp. 43-44; Rosarium Virginis Mariae, 15). Estas dos palabras expresan la pertenencia total a Jesús por medio de María: "Tuus totus ego sum, et omnia mea, tua sunt", escribe san Luis María; y traduce: "Soy todo vuestro, y todo lo que tengo os pertenece, ¡oh mi amable Jesús!, por María vuestra santísima Madre" (Tratado de la verdadera devoción a la santísima Virgen, 233, Editorial Esin, S.A., Barcelona, 1999, p. 150). La doctrina de este santo ha ejercido un profundo influjo en la devoción mariana de muchos fieles y también en mi vida. Se trata de una doctrina vivida, de notable profundidad ascética y mística, expresada con un estilo vivo y ardiente, que utiliza a menudo imágenes y símbolos. Sin embargo, desde el tiempo en que vivió san Luis María en adelante, la teología mariana se ha desarrollado mucho, sobre todo gracias a la decisiva contribución del concilio Vaticano II. Por tanto, a la luz del Concilio se debe releer e interpretar hoy la doctrina monfortana, que, no obstante, conserva su valor fundamental. En esta carta quisiera compartir con vosotros, religiosos y religiosas de la familia monfortana, la meditación de algunos pasajes de los escritos de san Luis María, que en estos momentos difíciles nos ayuden a alimentar nuestra confianza en la mediación materna de la Madre del Señor.

Dia 22Preparación Consagración a María Oración a MaríaOh María! transforma mi corazón como el tuyo; colócale alrededor una corona de pureza adornada con virtud; toma mi corazón, querida Madre, consagrado como tuyo propio; preséntaselo a Dios Padre como una ofrenda de mí para Ti. Ayúdame, Oh María, en hacer tu Corazón, más conocido cada día.Invocación al Espíritu SantoVen Espíritu Santo, ilumina mi corazón,para ver las cosas que son de Dios.Ven Espíritu Santo, dentro de mi mente, para conocer las cosas que son de Dios.Ven Espíritu Santo,dentro de mi alma, que yo le pertenezca solamente a Dios. Santifica todo lo que piense, diga y haga, para que todo sea para la gloria de Dios. Amén.San Juan Pablo IIDurante esta cuarta y última semana nos enfocaremos en el ejemplo y en las palabras de otro gran maestro de la consagración mariana: San Juan Pablo II. “El Papa más mariano”, como ha sido llamado, ahondó profundamente la comprensión de la Iglesia sobre la consagración mariana. Tomando como base el proyecto del Segundo Concilio Vaticano, nos proporciona un tratamiento rigurosamente bíblico de la consagración mariana — a la que también refiere como a una “confiada entrega” — y se concentra en la idea de que el papel de María es conducirnos al interior del misterio del amor redentor de Cristo y a la consagración de uno mismo al Padre.El don de misericordia de MaríaEn 1917, mientras la Primera Guerra Mundial seguía su curso, la Bienaventurada Virgen María se apareció a tres niños pastores en Fátima, Portugal. Les dijo que la guerra terminaría, pero si la gente no se convertía seguiría una guerra peor y Rusia esparciría sus errores por el mundo provocando más guerras, mártires y persecuciones contra la Iglesia. Para impedir esto, María pidió que el Santo Padre consagrara a Rusia a su Inmaculado Corazón y que la gente comulgara cinco sábados seguidos como reparación. Al final, dijo, triunfaría su Inmaculado Corazón. Es interesante que María mencionara a Rusia. En aquel tiempo esto fue causa de confusión. ¿Rusia? ¿La Santa Rusia? ¿Qué errores esparciría por el mundo este país cristiano? ¿Y cómo podría ejercer tal influencia una Rusia tan pobre? (En ese momento de la historia, la revolución soviética estaba aún en pañales; aún no se había establecido el régimen comunista y totalitario y ateo). Después de que María hizo su profecía sobre Rusia, los niños tuvieron una visión de un “obispo vestido de blanco”, que pensaron era el Papa. Con gran aflicción vieron que él sufriría mucho y luego lo matarían a tiros. Los niños describieron lo que habían visto sólo a las autoridades de la Iglesia, quienes decidieron no revelarlo al público. Esto llegó a conocerse como el último “secreto” de Fátima. Ahora bien, la primera aparición de Nuestra Señora de Fátima ocurrió el 13 de mayo de 1917 a las cinco de la tarde. Exactamente 64 años después, el día 13 de mayo de 1981, un pequeño jeep sin techo entró en la Plaza de San Pedro, transportando al Papa Juan Pablo II, quien afectuosamente recibió a los peregrinos congregados allí. En un momento, el jeep se detuvo para que el Papa recibiera a una niña en sus brazos. Después de devolvérsela a sus jubilosos padres, el jeep siguió su curso entre una multitud de peregrinos que saludaban y aplaudían. De repente, un hombre armado disparó dos tiros al Papa a corta distancia. La primera bala le rozó el codo. La segunda le dio en el abdomen y rebotó desgarrando los intestinos y atravesando el colon. Milagrosamente la bala no alcanzó la principal arteria abdominal por una décima de pulgada. Si hubiera sido golpeada o apenas rozada, Juan Pablo habría muerto desangrado camino al hospital. Dándose cuenta de esta bendición, el Papa dijo que “una mano disparó y otra condujo la bala”. ¿Cuál mano guió la bala? Juan Pablo cree que fue la mano de Nuestra Señora de Fátima (no olvidó el aniversario del 13 de mayo). De hecho, después del incidente pidió el sobre que contenía el último secreto de Fátima, aquel que hablaba del “obispo vestido de blanco”. Luego, con Fátima ocupando su mente, pensó consagrar el mundo al Inmaculado Corazón de María lo más pronto posible y se puso a componer un acto de consagración, el cual rezó solemnemente pocas semanas después. Incluso antes de esto, una semana después del atentado, repitió su consagración personal a María durante un discurso grabado para los peregrinos reunidos en la Plaza de San Pedro: “A ti, María, te repito: Totus tuus ego sum”, ‘Soy todo tuyo'; “Et omnia mea tua sunt”, “Y todas mis cosas te pertenecen”; “Accipio Te in mea omnia”, “Te pongo al centro de mi vida”; “Praebe mihi cor tuum”, “Dame tu corazón”.El 25 de marzo de 1984, en la Plaza de San Pedro, ante la estatua oficial de Nuestra Señora de Fátima transportada por avión para la ocasión, Juan Pablo hizo un acto más solemne de entrega del mundo al Inmaculado Corazón de María. Concluyó la oración con las siguientes palabras:“Permite que sea revelado, una vez más en la historia del mundo, el infinito poder salvador de la Redención: ¡El poder del Amor misericordioso! ¡Que ponga un alto a la maldad! ¡Que transforme las conciencias! ¡Que tu Inmaculado Corazón revele para todos la luz de la Esperanza!”Después de enterarse del solemne acto de entrega del Papa, Sor Lucía, la única sobreviviente de los tres videntes de Fátima, declaró que aquello había satisfecho totalmente el pedido original de Nuestra Señora. Cinco años más tarde, el horroroso régimen totalitario soviético que había aterrorizado a millones de personas de repente llegó a su fin. El Papa no descansó con esa victoria. El que una vez había llamado “siglo de lágrimas” estaba lejos de haber concluido. Para hacer frente al mal y la injusticia presentes en el mundo, proclamó enérgicamente con creciente frecuencia, el poder salvador del “Amor misericordioso”. Sus esfuerzos para promover este mensaje culminaron con el establecimiento, el año 2000, del Domingo de la Divina Misericordia como fiesta universal en la Iglesia, y también con un solemne Acto de Consagración del mundo a la Divina Misericordia en 2002. Tres años después de esta consagración, el gran Papa mariano, el gran Papa de la Misericordia, murió en un Primer Sábado, víspera del Domingo de la Divina Misericordia. María le había salvado la vida en el amanecer de su pontificado para que, a través de él, su divino Hijo condujera a la Iglesia hacia la victoria de la Misericordia y el triunfo de su Inmaculado Corazón.Del Evangelio segun San Mateo ..Sobre la Transfiguración del Señor .."Seis días después, toma Jesús consigo a Pedro, a Santiago y a su hermano Juan, y los lleva aparte, a un monte alto. Y se transfiguró delante de ellos; su rostro se puso brillante como el sol y sus vestidos se volvieron blancos como la luz. En esto, se les aparecieron Moisés y Elías que conversaban con Él... Y una nube luminosa los cubrió con su sombra y de la nube salía una voz que decía: Este es mi Hijo amado, en quien me complazco; escuchadle."(Breve meditación sobre estas palabras del Evangelio) Contemplamos la misericordia del SeñorRezamos con Sta. Faustina Kowalska:"Oh Sangre y Agua que brotaste del Corazón de Jesús, como una fuente de misericordia para nosotros, en Ti confio."Oración al PadrePadre Eterno! Padre Santo! Con Jesús, María y José, y con todos los Santos y Ángeles del Cielo, te alabo, te bendigo, te doy gracias, y te ofrezco todo mi ser, mi pasado, presente y futuro, con la confianza puesta en tu Infinita Bondad y Misericordia.Y te pido me ayudes a vivir como María, en su Sí, en su Corazón y en su Alabanza, y al igual que Ella, siempre en actitud de servicio y disponibilidad, hacia tus planes divinos de bendición y salvación.Y con María decimos:"Proclama mi alma la grandeza del Señor, se alegra mi espíritu en Dios mi Salvador."

Karol Wojtyła (1920-2005), since1978 better known as Pope John Paul II, has been one of the most influential men of the 20th century. The centenary of his birth is a useful opportunity to reflect on his legacy. Many Evangelicals have very positive things to say about him. Are their positive evaluations fair or are they lacking? Listen as we answer the question, "How do we assess John Paul II's legacy?" Because of the stature of the man, the question is overwhelming in every respect, but one that must be answered.Episode Resources:Vatican File 176. “Totus tuus” (to Mary).

Solus Christus (Christ Alone) versus Totus Christus (the Whole Christ). If one wants to capture the difference between the evangelical faith and Roman Catholicism, here it is. On the one hand, the evangelical stress on the uniqueness of Jesus's person (the God-man) and His atoning work;[1] on the other, the Roman Catholic insistence on the organic relationship between Christ and the Church.Listen as we discuss the latest Vatican File by Dr. Leonardo De Chirico, titled:Vatican File 170.

**Today's host(s):** Scot Landry **Today's guest(s):** Fr. Roger Landry, Pastor of St. Anthony of Padua Parish, New Bedford, and Executive Editor of The Anchor, the newspaper of the Diocese of Fall River * [St. Anthony of Padua Parish, New Bedford](http://www.saintanthonynewbedford.com/) **Today's topics:** The Church's teachings on the Blessed Virgin Mary **Summary of today's show:** Fr. Roger Landry joins his brother Scot to discuss what the Church believes and teaches about Mary, the Mother of Jesus, and how best to prepare for the upcoming Feast of the Assumption. **1st segment:** Scot welcomed his brother, Fr. Roger Landry, to show to discuss the role of Mary in the economy of salvation. Fr. Roger has led retreats called the School of Mary on the teachings of the Church on Mary. Fr. Roger said he took the term School of Mary from Bl. John Paul II. HE spoke about entering into a school of Mary, just as Jesus would have been in a school at the feet of Mary. It also refers to the school of the Rosary which teaches us in meditations on Mary. John Paul II wrote an encyclical called [Redemptoris Mater](http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/john_paul_ii/encyclicals/documents/hf_jp-ii_enc_25031987_redemptoris-mater_en.html) in which he asked the Church to look to Mary as a model for the faith. >The Mother of the Redeemer has a precise place in the plan of salvation, for "when the time had fully come, God sent forth his Son, born of woman, born under the law, to redeem those who were under the law, so that we might receive adoption as sons. And because you are sons, God has sent the Spirit of his Son into our hearts, crying, 'Abba! Father!'" (Gal. 4:4-6) Scot asked what is the blessed Mother's role in the economy of salvation, God's plan to save us all. Fr. Roger said the first point is her free Yes to God's proposal made through the Archangel Gabriel, which set into motion God's plan of salvation. This allowed Christ to take on our human flesh in order to provide expiation for our sins through His flesh and open up the gates to heaven. The second point is the third annunciation of the Cross. The first was Gabriel's and the second was when Simeon told her her own heart would be pierced. The third is when Christ said to her to behold her son, John (and through him all of us), and to all of us. By her prayers and intercession, by her example, and by her continuing to hand on to us her Son, our savior. The Catechism begins talking about Mary by calling her the Mother of the Church. Why is it significant that she is our mother? Fr. Roger said we all need spiritual mothers. Most of us have learned our faith from our mothers. Mothers have a particular genius for handing on the faith to their children. Also, Jesus came from heaven to found a family. We have a father, Jesus is our brother, and no better person has existed who has heard the Word and put it into practice than Mary. Jesus said his mother and brothers and sisters are those who hear the Word and put it into practice. Scot said the Church has proclaimed two dogmas about Mary. The first is the Immaculate Conception, which means she was preserved from sin. * [Immaculate Conception](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immaculate_Conception) * [Assumption](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assumption_of_Mary) the Immaculate Conception was proclaimed in 1854 and the Assumption in 1950. This doesn't mean they were invented then, but that they were conclusively stated at the time. Immaculate Conception was debated. It was universally acknowledged that she did not choose to sin but was she preserved from Original Sin. The dogma said that when God gave Mary a soul at conception, she was preserved from sin. Fr. Roger explained Original Sin. Adam and Eve had supernatural and preternatural gifts, which we lost when they freely disobeyed the Lord and squandered our inheritance. The Immaculate Conception says Mary was conceived *with* these gifts. This was the complicated question theologians asked: How did this happen? Blessed Duns Scotus spoke of prevenient grace, it comes before. What Jesus did on the cross was an eternal act outside of time, in that it's effects were felt throughout time before and after. She was conceived without Original Sin and the ultimate effect of Original Sin is to be born without the preternatural and supernatural gifts. At baptism, we are put back in the state of grace although we still have some of the effects of sin. Both Jesus and his Mother would have felt temptation (Scripture says Jesus was tempted), buy they are able to say no to all temptation. **2nd segment:** Scot asked Fr. Roger what we learned about Mary during the Annunciation. He said we learned first that she was immaculately conceived. The Archangel uses a word that means "you who have been filled with grace." To be filled with grace means to be filled with God in such a way that there is no room in which God isn't present. This is implicit testimony to her Immaculate Conception. Then he says, The Lord is with you. They were already in communion. St. Athanasius said before she conceived Jesus in her womb, she conceived him in her heart. Then she was afraid, with a sense of awe that God was calling her to something she is not worthy of. She confessed that she is a virgin. She would know how babies were conceived, but she had already made a vow to remain a virgin in her marriage. And in the end, she said Let it be done to me, which changed the world. Her full cooperation with the Lord was the beginning of our redemption. After conceiving Jesus, she went to visit her cousin Elizabeth. We see what a woman of charity and faith that Mary is. She went in haste because the Archangel had her told that Elizabeth, who was quite old, would need assistance. Newly pregnant Mary traveled through mountainous and rough country because she loved and because she totally believed everything she'd been told. Elizabeth said in the Holy Spirit that she was totally blessed because of her faith and that Mary was carrying her Lord within her, even though Mary would only have been pregnant a few days. Mary then exclaimed the famous [Magnificat](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnificat). Mary exclaims that her existence is full of God. >My soul glorifies the Lord, * my spirit rejoices in God, my Saviour. He looks on his servant in her lowliness; * henceforth all ages will call me blessed. The Almighty works marvels for me. * Holy his name! His mercy is from age to age, * on those who fear him. He puts forth his arm in strength * and scatters the proud-hearted. He casts the mighty from their thrones * and raises the lowly. He fills the starving with good things, * sends the rich away empty. He protects Israel, his servant, * remembering his mercy, the mercy promised to our fathers, * to Abraham and his sons for ever. Scot said Pope John Paul II talked about the visitation as the highest expression and inspiration of the feminine genius, in the way Mary responded by putting motherhood and service as her primary vocation in life. Fr. Roger said the expression feminine genius is receiving a lot of theological study. Pope John Paul II was describing a maternity in a woman that loves and other teaches them to love. A woman gives love first by receiving it and receiving it is capable of sharing it. Mary received Love himself and couldn't keep it to herself. Mary just learned she was to be mother of the messiah and her first thought is to go to Elizabeth. Men do not have this genius because they are more selfish. **3rd segment:** Mary provides a lot of guidance on how we are to be Christians in the episode from Scripture of the Wedding feast of Cana. The scene is a wedding where no one notices that they are out of wine except Mary because she is one who loves and those who love pay attention to details of others. The Jewish wedding feast would be an eight day feast and if you ran out of wine, it would be a huge embarrassment for the family and the couple. So she went to her Son and told him. She didn't twist his arm or ask for anything. Saints and theologians have debated his next words: "What's this to you and to me." She tells the servants, "Do whatever he tells you." These are her last words in Scripture. A lot of time we don't recognize that we are ourselves are running on empty. Fr. Roger imagines Mary in heaven standing at the side of Jesus, asking Him to take care of those who need grace as she notices their needs. She takes our prayers to Him and He answers. The young servants can also be an inspiration. They had to take small leather pouches of about a gallon to fill 180 gallons of water in the jugs, filled all the way to the brim. Would that we would respond with as much enthusiasm to Mary's message to us. Scot said Mary was assumed into heaven and then crowned as queen of heaven where she intercedes for us. The Assumption was a tradition in the Church from the beginning. We know from history that while the burial spots of Jesus and all saints were venerated, there was no known burial place for her. The Assumption was defined as God taking Mary's soul and body into heaven, preserving her immaculately conceived body from the corruption due to sin and death through Original Sin. Heaven is not a retirement where we sit a leisure. Pope John Paul said that for Mary to reign in heaven is for her to continue to serve, just as Jesus the King continues to serve and govern. She continues to love us. On her deathbed, St. Therese the Little Flower said she wanted to spend her time in heaven doing good on earth. That's what Mary does. How does her assumption and coronation in heaven help us to know what our destiny is? Fr. Roger said Mary is the fulfillment of the human vocation to be with God in heaven forever. Her assumption shows that the human body is sacred and a temple of the Holy Spirit. We're called body and soul to heaven one day to rejoice fully human with God and all the saints as long as continue to say fiat to Jesus. Hopefully, we when get to heaven, by God's grace, that we will spend our time in heaven praying for our kids and grandkids and descendants until the Second Coming.This is supposed to begin now on earth, not waiting to start until we die. The best way to prepare for heaven is to start doing this now. **4th segment:** Scot said the Fr. Roger that most people know that Pope John Paul II's motto was Totus Tuus. What is the total translation of the phrase that this is just the first few words of. Fr. Roger said when John Paul was a young man working in a factory, he was a little suspicious of Marian devotion because felt some went overboard that even raised her over her Son. But a fellow worker introduced John Paul to St. Louis de Montfort who created a prayer of Total Consecration to Mary. It started with "totus tuus." >"Totus tuus ego sum, et omnia mea tua sunt. Accipio te in mea omnia. Praebe mihi cor tuum, Maria." ("I belong entirely to you, and all that I have is yours. I take you for my all. O Mary, give me your heart") * [St. Louis de Montfort's Total Consecration](http://www.saintlouisdemontfort.com/consecration.cfm) John Paul II would pray this prayer every day. Mary had said at Fatima that the solution to the problems of the 20th century was consecration to Mary's heart, to her purity, to the way she would treasure the message of the Word. John Paul could say "Be not afraid," because he'd given himself to her totally and trusted totally. The Lord wants us to consecrate ourselves to him through Mary, living in our own being Mary's total consecration to the Lord so we can live and extend salvation, just as Mary did before us. Scot asked why the Church teaches that Jesus wants us to go through Mary. Fr. Roger said there was no reason for Jesus to be conceived as an embryo, but could have come as an adult. He chose to come into the world through Mary as God's plan throughout all eternity. Why would he change now? In this way, we are not intimidated because Mary is not intimidating. Mary is not trying to be a hero. Jesus praises Mary not just because she is a blood relation, but because of her spiritual relationship to Him. Mary hears the Word of God and puts it into practice. She teaches us how to be a better Christian. **5th segment:** Scot asked Fr. Roger about Marian apparitions, why she is appearing, and how we should receive these messages. Fr. Roger said we need to be alert that Satan can try to fool us. Catholics need to be judicious and not be gullible when it comes to every report of an apparition. Mary always comes down with God's permission not to teach us anything new, but to understand anew what has already been revealed. In Guadalupe, Mary gave a message through Juan Diego for the whole nascent Church in the Americas. That she appeared as a mestiza, a woman of European and native heritage, is something that helped the evangelization of our continents. In Lourdes, Mary revealed herself as the Immaculate Conception. It was a great means for the whole Church to reflect on the dogma that had just been defined. Fatima was a call to repentance, that we need to get with it in term of her Son's teaching. As Catholics we don't *need* to listen to private revelation. Public revelation ended with the death of the last Apostle. But we need to hear the echoes of public revelation should be sought in the private revelation. We need to evaluate these reported apparitions with our common sense. These message can be great assists for us as we live the message of the Gospel in our lives today. Scot asked about the miracles at apparition sites. Fr. Roger said we see Jesus' miracles in the Gospels and the greatest are not the physical healings, but they were always a prelude to the deeper miracle of spiritual conversion. The reason for the miracles might be for us to have confidence in the message of Lourdes and to draw people to that place in order to have deeper spiritual miracles take place in us. Fr. Roger said as we prepare for the Assumption, it is a time for preparation. We could pray the Rosary or pray it with greater devotion, to recall Michaelangelo's depiction of the Last Judgment in which the Rosary was used literally to lift souls into heaven.
**Today's host(s):** Scot Landry **Today's guest(s):** Cardinal Séan O'Malley, Andreas Widmer, Fr. Daniel Hennessey* [The Vatican's official tribute to Blessed John Paul II](http://www.johnpaulii.va/en/)* [The Diocese of Rome's Bl. John Paul II website](http://www.karol-wojtyla.org/En/Home%20Page.aspx)* **Today's topics:** Reflections on the Beatification of Pope John Paul II; Dedication of the radio studio to Bl. John Paul II**A summary of today's show:** Cardinal Sean, Fr. Dan Hennessey, and Andreas Widmer called in from Rome to give their own unique perspectives on the beatification ceremonies: as a cardinal, a priest, and a former Swiss Guard. They also imparted the flavor of the day, the peace and joy evident in the event even in a crowd numbering close to 2 million. Also, today, we dedicate our radio studio under the patronage of Bl. John Paul II.**1st segment:** Yesterday, on Divine Mercy Sunday, Pope Benedict XVI beatified his predecessor, the now Blessed Pope John Paul II. This holy pope was a spiritual father to all of us and an inspiration. On today's program, we'll receive the reflections of 3 pilgrims who are familiar to listeners here on The Good Catholic Life. Later, we'll hear from Father Dan Hennessey, the director of Vocations for the Archdiocese, and Andreas Widmer a former Swiss Guard who now lives in Boston. Cardinal Sean now joins Scot. The Cardinal said it was exciting to be there yesterday. The crowds were enormous, and luckily there were many opportunities for people to participate in different ways. With up to 2 million people in the city, it was very challenging to get up close to the ceremony itself. Last night, the Basilica was open until 3am and there was a column of people filing past the casket of Bl. John Paul. Today there was a Mass of Thanksgiving celebrated by Cardinal Bertone. There were pilgrims from all over the world, virtually every continent. Obviously, yhr Holy Father had touched so many people's lives. No one in history had ever been seen by so many people as John Paul. This ceremony gives testimony to the connectedness that people felt with him.Scot asked what it's like to know someone he knew so well become a blessed in the Church. Cardinal Sean never thought he would grow so old that he would know two people who were beatified: John Paul and Mother Theresa. He was with the Holy Father many times as both a priest and a bishop. He was extraordinarily gifted and real grace for the Church. It's wonderful in our lifetime to have the opportunity to celebrate his ministry and his life.Scot said Pope John Paul wasn't beatified for his papacy, but for his holiness and virtues. He asked Cardinal Sean for any reflections on his holiness. Cardinal Sean said he was impressed how, in the midst of a chaos of a papal visit, wherever it was, he had the ability to concentrate and pray and be recollected. He's sure that was the source of his strength. That was evidence of just how profound his spirituality was. Cardinal Sean said it looked like the entire College of Cardinals was present and he was pleased that Pope Benedict asked all the cardinals to concelebrate. Even a number of retired cardinals in poor health came to Rome to be part of it.Scot asked how Rome was different than all the Cardinal's many trips. There were many people from all over: lots of French and Spanish, also many from Africa. Many people slept in the St. Peter's Square and along the Via della Conciliazione. Scot said he followed many of the Catholic bloggers and Twitterers who were writing during the whole night from the vigil and through the Mass. When Cardinal Sean went by the Basilica last night about 11pm and there was still a huge column. Cardinal Sean also ran into some of those attending today's Vatican meeting of Catholic bloggers, including Anna Arco of the *Catholic Herald* in London.**2nd segment:** Now joined by Fr. Daniel Hennessey from the Basilica of St. Paul-Outside-the-Walls in Rome. He attended the Saturday night vigil at Circus Maximus. He thinks there were several hundred thousand people and it was very peaceful. There was a magnificent of Our Lady and Child. There were several witness interviews, including the religious sister who was cured of Parkinson's and whose miracle was the one that allowed Bl. John Paul to be beatified.On Sunday, he had to get up very early. It wasn't easy to get through the crowds and the security checkpoints, but eventually they got through to sit in the section reserved for priests. He got to sit in front of about 90 percent of the millions who were present. As vocation director, Fr. Dan has talked to a lot of seminarians about the affect John Paul may have had on their lives. To say it was beautiful was an understatement. He believes Bl. John Paul is interceding for us for vocations right now. As a priest himself, he had a total sense of gratitude for the gift of the priesthood. God uses each person, especially priests, as instruments. He was struck how God used John Paul as an instrument to touch so many people. It seemed every person there had a personal connection with John Paul.After the Mass, there was announcement that everyone was welcome to enter the Basilica and venerate the relics. Hundreds of thousands of people started filing in. They closed it at 3am to prepare for today's Thanksgiving Mass. Because of where he was seated, Fr. Dan was able to go in within about an hour. Inside he was struck by the numbers of the infirm who were being brought in and a wide variety of people of all different age groups: families, youth groups, elderly. It was a sign of the universality of his pontificate.Fr. Dan plans to visit the Gesu church, where St. Ignatius' remains are, to celebrate Mass and then go to St. Peter's Mass again before he leaves. He said he prayed for the missionary work of The Good Catholic Life at St. Paul Outside-the-walls.**3rd segment:** Joining Scot now from Rome is Andreas Widmer, former Swiss Guard now living in Boston. He wanted to go to Rome as a pilgrim. As a former Guard he had many privileges and many opportunities for something extra. But now he wanted to be at the beatification as himself, a pilgrim. He wanted to be with the people and a part of the whole event. He ended up standing in the square behind St. Peter's Square. Being tall, he had a good view. Even though there were 1.5 million people, the experience was one of peace and joy. Even though there was hardly space to put both feet on the crowd, there was a fraternity and peacefulness. No one pushed, no one raised their voice. It is a very deep experience of the universal Church.The weather forecast was for rain on Sunday, but it never rained all day. Instead it was blue sky and sun. In front of Andreas was a very young Franciscan who put up his hood to cover his head from the sun. There some people from Argentina, an elderly Italian couple, some Frenchmen, and of course many Poles.Andreas knew Pope John Paul very well in his life, what was it like to be there. He said that John Paul was present in the crowd. There was a jovial atmosphere. People who loved him came together and lived out his spirit.Pope Benedict has made some interesting and positive changes to the beatification ceremony. First, there was the reading of the proclamation and the Pope's approval. The picture of Bl. John Paul was unveiled and the crowd went wild. After that, they had an announcement in 10 languages asking for a prayerful atmosphere for Mass, no clapping and no banners or flags. There were several times in the Mass when it was so quiet and prayerful that he could hear the doves flying above the street.Scot asked what Communion was like. He was in a non-official section, even though there were no official tickets for the event. So he was afraid they wouldn't receive Communion. They did receive, but it took so long that the Mass was continuing on despite them. He believes there was enough for everyone.Andreas was able to venerate John Paul's casket. He said he admires the pilgrims who stood for the Mass and then stood for another 4 hours waiting to see the casket and they only get a few moments to see as they walked past. Andreas said he used his connections with the Swiss Guard to be able to pray next to the casket for a while. There were a lot of people praying, quietly. It was very reverent and quiet.Andreas is also in Rome for the annual swearing-in of the new Swiss Guards on May 6. His nephew is going to be sworn in for the Guard this year. It's also Andreas' 25th anniversary since he joined the Swiss Guard.**4th segment:** Last Tuesday on The Good Catholic Life, Dr. David Franks from St. John's Seminary asked for our prayers as his wife Dr. Angela Franks was prepared to deliver their 5th child on Tuesday 5/3. Well, David texted me earlier today letting me know that Maximilian Joseph Franks didn't want to wait until Tuesday. He was born at 2:27am this morning. 6 pounds, 9 ounces and 18 inches. Angela is doing well. Congratulations to David, Angela, Maximilian Joseph and his 4 older siblings in the Franks household. Pope Benedict is the first pope in 1,000 years to beatify his predecessor and it was a moving day for him yesterday.* [Pope Benedict's homily for the beatification Mass](http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/benedict_xvi/homilies/2011/documents/hf_ben-xvi_hom_20110501_beatificazione-gpii_en.html)>Six years ago we gathered in this Square to celebrate the funeral of Pope John Paul II. Our grief at his loss was deep, but even greater was our sense of an immense grace which embraced Rome and the whole world: a grace which was in some way the fruit of my beloved predecessor's entire life, and especially of his witness in suffering. Even then we perceived the fragrance of his sanctity, and in any number of ways God's People showed their veneration for him. For this reason, with all due respect for the Church's canonical norms, I wanted his cause of beatification to move forward with reasonable haste. And now the longed-for day has come; it came quickly because this is what was pleasing to the Lord: John Paul II is blessed!Later on he said:>Today is the Second Sunday of Easter, which Blessed John Paul II entitled Divine Mercy Sunday. The date was chosen for today's celebration because, in God's providence, my predecessor died on the vigil of this feast. Today is also the first day of May, Mary's month, and the liturgical memorial of Saint Joseph the Worker. All these elements serve to enrich our prayer, they help us in our pilgrimage through time and space; but in heaven a very different celebration is taking place among the angels and saints! Then he said:>Dear brothers and sisters, today our eyes behold, in the full spiritual light of the risen Christ, the beloved and revered figure of John Paul II. Today his name is added to the host of those whom he proclaimed saints and blesseds during the almost twenty-seven years of his pontificate, thereby forcefully emphasizing the universal vocation to the heights of the Christian life, to holiness, taught by the conciliar Constitution on the Church Lumen Gentium. All of us, as members of the people of God – bishops, priests, deacons, laity, men and women religious – are making our pilgrim way to the heavenly homeland where the Virgin Mary has preceded us, associated as she was in a unique and perfect way to the mystery of Christ and the Church. Karol Wojtyla took part in the Second Vatican Council, first as an auxiliary Bishop and then as Archbishop of Kraków. He was fully aware that the Council's decision to devote the last chapter of its Constitution on the Church to Mary meant that the Mother of the Redeemer is held up as an image and model of holiness for every Christian and for the entire Church. This was the theological vision which Blessed John Paul II discovered as a young man and subsequently maintained and deepened throughout his life. A vision which is expressed in the scriptural image of the crucified Christ with Mary, his Mother, at his side. This icon from the Gospel of John (19:25-27) was taken up in the episcopal and later the papal coat-of-arms of Karol Wojtyla: a golden cross with the letter “M” on the lower right and the motto “Totus tuus”, drawn from the well-known words of Saint Louis Marie Grignion de Montfort in which Karol Wojtyla found a guiding light for his life: “Totus tuus ego sum et omnia mea tua sunt. Accipio te in mea omnia. Praebe mihi cor tuum, Maria – I belong entirely to you, and all that I have is yours. I take you for my all. O Mary, give me your heart” (Treatise on True Devotion to the Blessed Virgin, 266).>>In his Testament, the new Blessed wrote: “When, on 16 October 1978, the Conclave of Cardinals chose John Paul II, the Primate of Poland, Cardinal Stefan Wyszynski, said to me: ‘The task of the new Pope will be to lead the Church into the Third Millennium'”. And the Pope added: “I would like once again to express my gratitude to the Holy Spirit for the great gift of the Second Vatican Council, to which, together with the whole Church – and especially with the whole episcopate – I feel indebted. I am convinced that it will long be granted to the new generations to draw from the treasures that this Council of the twentieth century has lavished upon us. As a Bishop who took part in the Council from the first to the last day, I desire to entrust this great patrimony to all who are and will be called in the future to put it into practice. For my part, I thank the Eternal Shepherd, who has enabled me to serve this very great cause in the course of all the years of my Pontificate”. And what is this “cause”? It is the same one that John Paul II presented during his first solemn Mass in Saint Peter's Square in the unforgettable words: “Do not be afraid! Open, open wide the doors to Christ!” What the newly-elected Pope asked of everyone, he was himself the first to do: society, culture, political and economic systems he opened up to Christ, turning back with the strength of a titan – a strength which came to him from God – a tide which appeared irreversible. By his witness of faith, love and apostolic courage, accompanied by great human charisma, this exemplary son of Poland helped believers throughout the world not to be afraid to be called Christian, to belong to the Church, to speak of the Gospel. In a word: he helped us not to fear the truth, because truth is the guarantee of liberty. To put it even more succinctly: he gave us the strength to believe in Christ, because Christ is Redemptor hominis, the Redeemer of man. This was the theme of his first encyclical, and the thread which runs though all the others.And at the end of his homily:>Finally, on a more personal note, I would like to thank God for the gift of having worked for many years with Blessed Pope John Paul II. I had known him earlier and had esteemed him, but for twenty-three years, beginning in 1982 after he called me to Rome to be Prefect of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, I was at his side and came to revere him all the more. My own service was sustained by his spiritual depth and by the richness of his insights. His example of prayer continually impressed and edified me: he remained deeply united to God even amid the many demands of his ministry. Then too, there was his witness in suffering: the Lord gradually stripped him of everything, yet he remained ever a “rock”, as Christ desired. His profound humility, grounded in close union with Christ, enabled him to continue to lead the Church and to give to the world a message which became all the more eloquent as his physical strength declined. In this way he lived out in an extraordinary way the vocation of every priest and bishop to become completely one with Jesus, whom he daily receives and offers in the Eucharist.>>Blessed are you, beloved Pope John Paul II, because you believed! Continue, we implore you, to sustain from heaven the faith of God's people. Amen.**5th segment:** Two weeks ago a benefactor, who wishes to remain anonymous, contacted me with the interest of helping to support the expansion and reach of The Good Catholic Life program. The gift was very generous and I asked if there was a favorite saint that the benefactor would want to suggest to dedicate the studio to and the response was “Pope John Paul II.” So how we are pleased to be able to dedicate this radio studio to Blessed John Paul II. Father Matt Williams is here to lead us in the prayer of blessing and dedication. >God our Father, in your wise and loving providence you raise up men and women, outstanding in holiness, to proclaim the Gospel of your Son, Jesus Christ.>>In our generation, you chose and anointed Blessed John Paul II to be shepherd and father of your pilgrim Church on earth. >>Ablaze with the radiance of your Son, John Paul traveled to the farthest corners of the earth to bear witness to Jesus Christ, the light of the nations; in season and out of season, whether convenient or inconvenient.>>His example teaches and inspires us to “be not afraid” to walk in justice, to proclaim the Truth that sets us free, and to experience the depths of your love and mercy.>>He encouraged the Church in his address for the 34th World Communications Day in 2000 to proclaim Christ through the Media in the new millennium. He said: >“The impact of the media in today's world can hardly be exaggerated. The advent of the information society is a real cultural revolution, making the media "the first Areopagus of the modern age" (Redemptoris Missio, 37), where facts and ideas and values are constantly being exchanged. Through the media, people come into contact with other people and events, and form their opinions about the world they live in - indeed, form their understanding of the meaning of life… The proclamation of Christ must be part of this experience.>>…Naturally, in proclaiming the Lord, the Church must make energetic and skilful use of her own means of communication - books, newspapers and periodicals, radio, television, and other means. And Catholic communicators must be bold and creative in developing new media and methods of proclamation.>>…May the media give voice to Jesus himself, clearly and joyously, with faith and hope and love. To proclaim Christ in the media at the dawn of the new millennium is not only a necessary part of the Church's evangelizing mission; it is also a vital, inspiring and hope-filled enrichment of the media's message. May God abundantly bless all those who honour and proclaim his Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, in the vast world of the means of social communication.”>>Now that John Paul has crossed the threshold of hope into the heavenly kingdom, we ask you Father, through his intercession, to pour out your graces upon the Archdiocese's efforts of evangelization, and in a particular way- this Radio Studio for The Good Catholic Life program. >>Instructed by John Paul's teaching, we pray that we may open our hearts to the saving grace of Christ, the sole redeemer of humankind, and proclaim HIM with the power, the breath and the fire of the Holy Spirit. >>May all listeners come to know and discover the truth that they are a unique and unrepeatable gift from the heart of God. And may they discover in Jesus Christ and His Bride, the Church, the answer and remedy to their heart's deepest questions and longings.>>Father, we ask you now to bless this Radio Studio, for your glory. United under the intercession and maternal care of our Heavenly Mother Mary, we say along with Blessed John Paul II, Totus Tuus Maria. >>We consecrate this Studio to you dear Father, through the powerful intercession of our Lady, and your servant Blessed John Paul II, and we give to you our “FIAT”-“let it be done unto me according to your Word.”>>And may almighty God bless this Radio Studio, In the Name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen.>>Mary, Star of the New Evangelization – Pray for us!>Blessed John Paul II – Pray for us!Last night, Fr. Matt Williams preached a Mass on the occasion of the ending Sr. Olga Yaqob's long service in the chaplaincy at Boston University. He noted that several significant events this weekend point us to heaven: the royal wedding points us to the sacrament of marriage and the heavenly marriage banquet of the Lamb of God; the beatification of John Paul; and Sr. Olga's Mass on the feast of Divine Mercy and how that Mercy brings us to heaven.Sr. Olga spoke at the Boston Catholic Women's Conference several years ago, telling her story about coming from Iraq to now being asked by Cardinal Sean to found a new religious order.
