Followed by The Memorare • 12:00 – the Angelus • 12:15 – Thought for today from Archbishop Lefebvre: The world and all of its distractions exercise an attraction on minds, on imaginations, on hearts, on souls. Even in Catholic communities, unfortunately, people are oriented toward those goods, toward money. You see for yourselves that it is not easy. You know well enough the occasions of sin which there are in the world. It is not easy. So we have to be vigilant all the time and be on our guard. • 18:00 – the Angelus • 19:10 – The hour of Compline for tonight according to the Traditional Pre-Vatican II Divine Office, followed by Fr.

Followed by The Memorare. • 09:10 – Thought for today from Archbishop Lefebvre: The world and our daily occupations often distract us from the thought of God, and they are like an obstacle and a screen between us and God on account of the disorder which is in us, as I explained to you when I spoke to you about original sin and its consequences. So the creatures which surround us very often hinder us from going to God. That is why there is a need to turn away from the world. • 12:00 – the Angelus • 18:00 – the Angelus • 20:45 – The hour of Compline for tonight according to the Traditional Pre-Vatican II Divine Office, followed by Fr.

God knows if the power of the devil is strong today to try to make us fall into sin, to try to turn us away from God, with all the means that men themselves have put in the devil's hands. • 12:00 – the Angelus. • 18:00 – the Angelus. • 19:30 – The hour of Compline for tonight according to the Traditional Pre-Vatican II Divine Office, followed by Fr.

Followed by The Memorare • 08:15 – Thought for today from Archbishop Lefebvre: Opposite this spiritual life that our Lord wishes to give us, and the presence of the Holy Trinity that He wants us to have within ourselves, there stands the world. We sense that our Lord is aware of the danger that the world represents for our salvation. So He puts us on our guard against the spirit of the world. • 12:00 – the Angelus • 18:00 – the Angelus • 19:15 – The hour of Compline for tonight according to the Traditional Pre-Vatican II Divine Office, followed by Fr.

Followed by The Memorare • 06:50 – Pope Offers Pan-Religious Blessing and Proposes Global Eco-Finance – Faith & Reason • 08:15 – Thought for today from Archbishop Lefebvre: Our Christian life is too often formalistic, exterior. It is not practical or profound enough. Do I ask myself if I am changing, if I am deepening my understanding of truths, if I am practicing them? Aren't there many domains in myself which are not animated by the spiritual? We don't actually want the light to penetrate too deeply so we don't have to change a particular habit, one that we suspect is a little bit bad but that we still want to keep. No! There must be no domain which is “my property.” I have to ask God with all my heart and all my will for light in every domain, to have generosity and tear out anything which is not pleasing to Him. • 12:00 – the Angelus • 18:00 – the Angelus

Followed by The Memorare. • 08:15 – Thought for today from Archbishop Lefebvre: We are unfortunately so far from God. Our minds and our hearts are so attached to the things of this world, so absorbed by our thoughts, our desires, our projects. What we have, our reputation, what people think of us, what people say about us – all those things preoccupy us much more than God does. Ah, if we could only be more detached! That is perhaps the main effort which you can and you must make. You have to detach yourselves from the goods of this world, from honors, from reputation; detach yourselves from your own thoughts, your own desires; and abandon yourselves into the hands of Providence, into the hands of God, in order to give yourselves entirely to Him; in order from now on to have only the interests of our Lord Jesus Christ in your heart and in your soul. • 08:30 – May 23, 2024: Francisvatican Announces The End Of The Chinese Underground Church – Canon212 • 12:00 – the Angelus • 18:00 – the Angelus • 19:20 – The hour of Compline for tonight according to the Traditional Pre-Vatican II Divine Office, followed by Fr.

Followed by The Memorare • 08:50 – Thought for today from Archbishop Lefebvre: The hymn of Prime is admirable. We beg God that all the acts of our day might be sheltered from anything that may harm us. And the Church goes into detail. “May our tongues be restrained, keeping far away the horror of discord,” so that no violent dispute arise among us. The tongue is often the instrument of such a thing. It is easy to get angry during a conversation; we lose our self-control and we say things we may regret later, but which set off that opposition between souls, between hearts. • 12:00 – the Angelus • 18:00 – the Angelus • 19:20 – The hour of Compline for tonight according to the Traditional Pre-Vatican II Divine Office, followed by Fr.
