Mother of the Church, the destroyer of all heresies!

August 21, 2024
St. Pius X

Dear Family of Mary!

This is a special feast day, St. Pius X! St. Pius X wrote extensively against the great menace to the faith, Modernism (see Pascendi Dominici Gregis – On Modernism, published on September 8, 1907)). He taught that modernism was the synthesis of all heresies. And we see what a terrible wreak it has made of the Christian world today.

I do not think it is a mistake that the Feast of St. Pius X is placed the day before the Queenship of Mary! St. Pius uncovered the danger of Modernism, and Our Lady, Queen of Heaven and Earth, demolishes Modernism!! She it is who stands as a witness to the reality of all her Son has revealed to us and we must accept as a matter of faith.

Our Lady gave us this message in 2015:

March 25, 2015 “Dear children! Also today the Most High permits me to be with you and to lead you on the way of conversion. Many hearts have shut themselves to grace and have become deaf to my call. You, little children, pray and fight against temptation and all the evil plans which the devil offers you through modernism. Be strong in prayer and with the cross in your hands pray that evil may not use you and may not conquer in you. I am with you and pray for you. Thank you for having responded to my call.”

Modernism is the great deception of our time. It is the great temptation and evil plan that the devil has been offering us for the past 200 years. And Our Mother, Mary, has come to equip us to defeat this plan. Through her messages and her presence, she has been building up a people of faith and trust in God. We are called to stand against the enemy, not allowing him to use or conquer in us!

St. Pius X wrote these words at the end of Pascendi Dominici Gregis:

“May Jesus Christ, the Author and finisher of our faith, be with you in His power; and may the Immaculate Virgin, the destroyer of all heresies, be with you by her prayers and aid!”

Amen, and amen!!

Let’s pray the Litany of Loreto with all our hearts today. Our Mother, Mary is with us to protect us from all heresy. May we listen to her words and rely on her guidance in these days! We look forward to Thursday with anticipation!
