Prayers, etc.: * 05:00 – Prayer to St. Michael the Archangel * 06:00 – praying The Angelus * 06:30 – praying the Joyful Mysteries of the Holy Rosary, followed by the Memorare * 07:30 – Thought for today from Archbishop Lefebvre: If we believe that our Catholic religion is the only religion, then we have to draw the consequences, and the consequences are simple, very simple: all men need to be in that holy religion if they want to be saved. That is why we have to be missionaries.

It is in the service of that Church, who is one, that we have been consecrated in our priesthood. Whatever the cost, we must defend that fundamental truth of our faith. Let us keep fidelity to that faith. * 09:20 – Praying to Atone for Rome's 2025 Jubilee Mascot * 12:00 – praying The Angelus * 13:55 – prayerfully reading The Athanasian Creed, followed by today's Daily Meditation found in Benedictus Magazine. * 18:00 – praying The Angelus * 20:40 – praying the hour of Compline for tonight according to the Traditional Pre-Vatican II Divine Office, followed by Fr.

And then Satan drew men into disobedience, as well. They passed over to the devil's camp. And our Lord brought us into His camp through baptism. So at our baptism we became soldiers of our Lord. Yes, we have to struggle against the powers of hell and against their every appearance in the world. * 08:35 – Readings from today's Mass for Tuesday, 05.
