Cardinal Sarah: “We Christians Need the Spirit of the Vendeans!”

Cardinal Robert Sarah, the Prefect of the Congregation for Divine Worship and the Discipline of the Sacraments, last weekend visited the Vendée in France in order to celebrate the 700th anniversary of the Diocese of Luçon. On Saturday, 12 August, the cardinal gave an especially stirring homily in Puy du Fou in which he both…

Fr. Willie Doyle: The Jesuit Called to the Battlefront in World War I

Editor’s note: The following comes from Genevieve Rose Kwasniewski, a homeschooled high school student who enjoys reading the lives of the saints, composing music, and playing the organ at her local traditional Latin Mass.

I want to say something about Ivereigh’s modus operandi before saying something about the substantive issue, which has to do…
