In Honor of St. Pius V

Yesterday, the day I started my blog, was the Feast of St. Pius V. He is a very prominent saint when it comes to traditional Catholicism, codifing the Roman missal after the great dogmatic Council of Trent. A link to the text can be found here. This Mass is valid in perpetuity, and nothing in it at all was to be changed.

I have decided to give you daily an excerpt from the Mystical City of God, by Blessed Mary Agreda. Here it is (Chapter XI, book 1 of The Incarnation, number 124)

"I saw that the eternal Word had awaited and chosen, as the most opportune time and hour for his decent from the bosom of the Father, the MIDNIGHT OF MORTAL PERVERSION (Wis. 18,14), when the whole posterity of Adam was buried and absorbed in the sleep of forgetfulness and ignorance of their true God, and when there was no one to open his mouth in confessing and blessing Him, EXCEPT SOME CHOSEN SOULS AMONG HIS PEOPLE."

God bless you.
