Léctio libri Sapientiae.
Ego quasi vitis fructificavi suavitatem odoris, et flores mei fructus honoris et honestatis. Ego mater pulchrae dilectionis, et timoris et agnitionis et sanctae spei. In me gratia omnis vitae et veritatis in me omnis spes vitae et virtutis. Transite ad me omnes, qui concupiscitis me et a generationibus meis implemini. Spiritus enim meus super melle dulcis, et hereditas mea super mel et favum. Memoria mea in generatione saeculorum, qui edunt me adhuc esurient et qui bibunt me adhuc sitient. Qui audit me non confundetur, et qui operantur in me non peccabunt. Qui elucidant me vitam aeternam habebunt.

Lesson from the Epistle
As the vine I have brought forth a pleasant odor, and my flowers are the fruit of honor and riches. I am the mother of fair love, and of fear, and of knowledge, and of holy hope. In me is all grace of the way and of the truth in me is all hope of life and of virtue. Come over to me, all ye that desire me, and be filled with my fruits; for my spirit is sweet above honey, and my inheritance above honey and the honey-comb. My memory is unto everlasting generations. They that eat me, shall yet hunger; and they that drink me, shall yet thirst. He that hearkeneth to me, shall not be confounded, and they that work by me, shall not sin. They that explain me shall have life everlasting.

† Sequentia sancti Evangelii secundum Joannem †
I n illo témpore: In illo témpore: Stabant juxta crucem Jesu mater ejus, et soror matris ejus, María Cléophæ, et María Magdaléne. Cum vidísset ergo Jesus matrem, et discípulum stantem, quem diligébat, dicit matri suæ: "Múlier, ecce fílius tuus." Deínde dicit discípulo: "Ecce mater tua." Et ex illa hora accépit eam discípulus in sua. |

† A reading from the Holy Gospel by Blessed Apostle Saint John †
At that time, there stood by the cross of Jesus, His mother, and His mother's sister Mary of Cleophas, and Mary Magdalen. When Jesus therefore had seen His mother and the disciple standing, whom He loved, He saith to His mother, "Woman, behold thy son." After that He saith to the disciple, "Behold, thy mother." And from that hour the disciple took her to his own. |
Homily For Feast of the Immaculate Heart of Mary
August 22, 2004 Anno Domini
by Father Louis J. Campbell
"Qui legit, intelligat"
"He who readeth, let him understand"
"Fair as the Moon"
In the light of an inspiring moon, Father found the answers in his heart by following the devotion to the Immaculate Heart, all leading him back on the straight and narrow path of Truth and Tradition.
In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost. Amen.
The Feast of the Immaculate Heart of Mary gives us an opportunity to reflect upon her virtues, especially her humility. Humility means seeing ourselves as we are, with a realistic view of both our virtues and our faults. Mary was a totally realistic person. She had no illusions about herself. Unspoiled by sin from the first moment of her Immaculate Conception, she was not blinded by pride, and could see her true self with perfect clarity, as a mere creature contemplating the immensity of God. Aside from the human nature of the God-Man Himself, Mary was God's most perfect work, a marvel of nature and grace, yet she gave the credit and the glory to God: "He Who is mighty has done great things for me" ( Blessed Apostle Saint Luke 1:49 ).
Unlike Mary, we who were born in the state of Original Sin tend to be blinded by pride. Even though we receive the gift of Sanctifying Grace through Baptism, we must live in a world of illusions. Mary recognized her complete dependence upon God, whereas pride inclines us to be independent and willful. Like strayed sheep, we often follow earthly heroes who are unworthy of our admiration, and accept the false values of a fallen humanity. We read in the book of Ecclesiastes: "Vanity of vanities! All things are vanity!… The eye is not satisfied with seeing nor is the ear filled with hearing" ( Ecclesiasticus 1:2, 8 ).
The world is full of illusions and with fools who follow vain pursuits that lead nowhere. Elvis fans still make pilgrimages to his "shrine" twenty-five years after his death. In England pilgrims flock to the "shrine" of the Princess Diana, who rests like a "goddess" in a pagan temple. Those young singers who make the final rounds of "American Idol" will probably follow in the footsteps of the Madonnas and the Britneys, egged on by their adoring fans. But in the end they will have to shed their illusions and appear before Jesus Christ, the Just Judge, Who renders to every man according to his works. How will He judge an "American Idol"?
The world persuades us that the most important questions in life is: "What do I want out of life, and how can I achieve success ( without having to walk over too many people in the process )?" In search of the answer to this question we follow one wrong path after another. Often enough, when we get what we thought we wanted, we want something else instead. We end up unhappy and confused while envying the wealthy and the powerful, thinking that life has passed us by. Earthly idols and elusive dreams do not bring peace.
The question is not "What do I want?" but "What does God want of me?" Mary, she of the purest of Hearts, was always in readiness to do the Lord's will, as we see in her response to the Archangel Gabriel, "Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it done to according to Thy word" ( Blessed Apostle Saint Luke 1:38 ). Jesus, whose very food and drink was to do the will of the Father, is Himself our perfect role model, our Hero. He says in Blessed Apostle Saint John's Gospel ( 6:39-40 ) :
-
"For I have come down from Heaven, not to do My Own will, but the will of Him Who sent Me. Now this is the will of him who sent me, the Father, that I should lose nothing of what he has given me, but that I should raise it up on the last day. For this is the will of my Father who sent me, that whoever beholds the Son, and believes in Him, shall have everlasting life, and I will raise him up on the last day".
It is not wrong to admire talented and successful people, but it is all too easy to find ourselves following the crowd down the slippery slope that leads to hell. "For what does it profit a man," says the Lord, "if he gain the whole world, but suffer the loss of his own soul?" ( Blessed Apostle Saint Matthew 16:26 ).
"Tell me what you love," says Saint Augustine, "and I will tell you what you are." If we love the sleazy, the crude and the grotesque, then we ourselves become sleazy, crude and grotesque. On the other hand, if we "behold the Son, and believe in him," cultivating our friendship with Him, we become like the Son. If, like Mary, we ponder the things of God in our hearts, then we become like Mary-humble, obedient, and attached to the will of God, which is the source of our peace.
Now Mary works very quietly, but powerfully, and the secret of her power is her humility. Among the disasters precipitated by Vatican II was a steep decline in devotion to Mary. The Rosary was ridiculed and ended up in bureau drawers, if it was not destroyed outright. Like many others, I no longer said the Rosary, although I continued to carry it around in my pocket. At that time I was a young priest stationed in Ottawa, Ontario, where I went through some dark valleys in my spiritual life. One evening after dark I decided to go for a walk in the parking lot behind the church, and as I paced back and forth I happened to look up at the moon. I thought of the words the Church applies to Mary from the Canticle of Canticles: "Who is she that cometh forth as the morning rising, fair as the moon, bright as the sun, terrible as an army in battle array?" ( Canticles 6:10 ). I reached into my pocket for my Rosary, and for the first time, perhaps in years, I began to pray the Rosary again.
The Church, wanting to inspire in us true devotion to Mary, our spiritual Mother, makes use of Scripture passages like this one from Ecclesiasticus, read on the Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel:
-
"As the vine I have brought forth a pleasant odor, and my flowers are the fruit of honor and riches. I am the mother of fair Love, and of fear, and of know-ledge, and of holy hope. In me is all grace of the way and of the truth, in me is all hope of life and of virtue. Come over to me, all you that desire me, and be filled with my fruits; for my spirit is sweet above honey, and my inheritance above honey and the honeycomb. My memory is unto everlasting generations. They that eat me, shall yet hunger; and they that drink me, shall yet thirst. He who obeys me shall not be confoun-ded, and they that work by me shall not sin. They that explain me shall have life everlasting" ( Ecclesiasticus 24:23-31 ). †
In the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost. Amen.

Vere dignum et justum est, æqum et salutáre, nos tibi semper, et ubíque grátias ágere: Dómine sancte, Pater omnípotens, ætérne Deus. Et te in the Feast of the Annunciation beátæ Mariæ semper Vírginis collaudáre, benedícere, et prædicáre.

It is truly meet and just, right and for our salvation, that we should at all times and in all places, give thanks unto Thee, O holy Lord, Father almighty, everlasting God and that we should praise and bless, and proclaim Thee, on the Feast of the Annunciation of the Blessed Mary, ever Virgin: Who also conceived Thine only-begotten Son by the over-shadowing of the Holy Ghost, and the glory of her virginity still abiding, gave forth to the world the everlasting light, Jesus Christ our Lord. Through whom the angels praise Thy Majesty, the Dominations worship it, and the Powers stand in awe. The heavens and the heavenly hosts together with the blessed Seraphim in triumphant chorus unite to celebrate it. Together with them we entreat Thee, that Thou mayest bid our voices also to be admitted, while we say with lowly praise: HOLY, HOLY, HOLY...
