Catholic Drive Time - 877-757-9424 Date – Tuesday, May 9th - 2023 – St. Pachomius The life of St. Pachomius the Great provides a valuable lesson on the importance of spiritual vigilance and interpreting small actions as indicators of deeper spiritual states. In his monastery, a monk made two straw mats instead of one, seeking praise for his diligence. However, St. Pachomius recognized the monk's vanity and admonished him. As a penance, the Saint instructed the monk to wear the two mats on his back during community prayer, publicly confessing his attachment to them over the Kingdom of Heaven. The monk was further required to carry the mats during the meal and endure six months of seclusion, fasting on bread and water while making two mats daily. This story reveals the ancient Fathers' practice of severe penances for even minor faults, which their subordinates accepted with humility and used for spiritual growth. It also highlights the need for vigilance in discerning small symptoms of vice that can have significant implications. St. Pachomius reminds us to interpret these symptoms in ourselves, others, and society at large, helping us recognize the forces of revolution and counter-revolution. Through his example, we are called to remain vigilant, combat vice, and appreciate the profound impact of seemingly insignificant actions on our spiritual well-being. St. Pachomius, Pray for us.

Catholic Drive Time - 877-757-9424 Date – Friday, May 5th - 2023 – Pope St. Pius V Pope St. Pius V, whose feast day is on May 5, was a champion of the Catholic Faith and defender of Christendom. He ruled the Church during the 16th century when the Knights of the Order of Saint John of Jerusalem, also known as the Knights Hospitaller, were stationed in Malta, a strategic position in the Mediterranean against Muslim forces. As the Ottoman Empire prepared to attack the island, the Pope wrote to King Philip II of Spain, addressing him as "Our Most Dear Son in Christ, Philip II, Catholic King" and urging him to assist the Knights of Malta. The Pope's letter shows his respect for and trust in the king's Catholic faith, as well as his recognition of the importance of temporal power in defending the Church. In addressing the King of Spain as his son, St. Pius V exemplified the close relationship between the Church and temporal rulers in those times. He believed that the Catholic Faith and Christendom itself were threatened by the Ottoman Empire, and that all Catholics should come to the aid of those defending Malta. St. Pius V's letter to King Philip II shows the practical application of his faith, as well as his deep concern for the welfare of the Church and all of Christendom. He remains a model for Catholics and political leaders alike, reminding us of the importance of defending the Faith and of the unity between the Church and the temporal sphere. Pope St. Pius V, Pray for us.

Catholic Drive Time - 877-757-9424 Date – Thursday, May 4th - 2023 – St. Angelus of Jerusalem St. Angelus of Jerusalem, born in 1185, was a Carmelite and a son of converted Jewish parents. He combated heresies like the Pataria, the Albigensians, and the Bulgars, and had a great devotion to St. Francis of Assisi. St. Angelus met St. Francis in Rome in 1219 and told him of his coming martyrdom. He was murdered by the Cathar Count Berenger in Leocadia after publicly censuring him for living incestuously with his sister. St. Angelus is best known for the famous encounter of three saints in a sacristy in Rome. St. Dominic, St. Francis, and St. Angelus met and each one understood who the other was by divine inspiration. The three knelt and conversed on their knees, and the beauty of their encounter lies in the fact that each one venerated the others. St. Angelus' martyrdom was similar to that of Jesus Christ as he was killed by an enemy of the Church. He died saying the same words that Jesus Christ did on the Cross: "Into Thy hands I commend My Spirit." St. Angelus of Jerusalem, Pray for us.

Catholic Drive Time - 877-757-9424 Date – Wednesday, May 3rd - 2023 – St. Ansfrid St. Ansfrid, Count of Brabant, led a successful military career before dedicating his life to God. He founded an abbey at Heiligenberg and a convent at Thorn, which were built with the financial support of his wife. Together, they agreed to live as brother and sister in perfect chastity. When he retired from his military career, he proclaimed his dedication to fighting for the glory of God and the conquest of souls. Ansfrid was later appointed Bishop of Utrecht, but he continued to take leave of his work to make retreats at one of the monasteries he had founded. He died in 1010 and was soon recognized for his saintly life. The life of St. Ansfrid shows the unity of a life lived in continuous combat in both the spiritual and temporal spheres. He was a knight-errant fighting on behalf of the poor, widows and orphans for the love of Christ, and later, as a bishop, he fought for the salvation of souls. This attitude is in contrast with the pacifist mentality of our times that sees any combat, be it ideological or material, as evil in itself. The life of St. Ansfrid invites us to imitate his militancy and enjoy the fight for a superior cause, which is the cause of Our Lady. St. Ansfrid, Pray for us.

Catholic Drive Time - 877-757-9424 Date – Friday, April 18th - 2023 – St. Louis Grignion de Monfort St. Louis Grignion de Monfort (1673-1716) was a French priest who was banished from the Diocese of Poitiers by the Bishop, influenced by Jansenism, during his preaching of spiritual exercises to the Sisters of St. Catherine. At his leave-taking, he directed a letter to the inhabitants of Montbernage, urging them to have an ardent love for Jesus Christ and to love Him through Mary. He emphasized the importance of true devotion to Our Lady, praying the Rosary every day, and receiving the Sacraments at least once a month. St. Louis faced many enemies who hated him for defending the principles of the institutions that supported them. However, the Vendée and Bretagne, where his preaching was well received, were the only places that rose up to defend the altar and the throne during the French Revolution. St. Louis is a rejected prophet, who raised high the standard of the fight, but at the same time was rejected, hated, and persecuted, just like true counter-revolutionaries today. St. Louis Grignion de Monfort, Pray for us.

Catholic Drive Time - 877-757-9424 Date – Tuesday, April 25th - 2023 – St. Mark the Evangelist St. Mark the Evangelist is celebrated on April 25th. He was from the tribe of Levi, baptized by St. Peter, and instructed by him in the Christian faith. Mark would follow Peter to Rome and preached the Gospel in the city with him. The faithful asked St. Mark to write the life of Our Lord according to the accounts of St. Peter, and so Mark wrote the narrative based on what he had heard from Peter. Peter approved it to be read by all the faithful. Later, Peter sent Mark to Alexandria, where he was the first to preach the Word of God. Simon, an old Jew who witnessed the labors of Mark in that city, said an enormous multitude converted there as a consequence of the apostolate of St. Mark. St. Peter Damian wrote that God gave St. Mark a special grace by which all the people he converted in Alexandria took up monastic customs. St. Peter consecrated him Bishop of Alexandria. In this city, the zeal of St. Mark attracted the hatred of the priests of the false gods. They seized him while he was saying Mass and tied a rope around his neck, dragging him through the city like an animal to slaughter. His body was lacerated, and his blood stained the roads. In prison, he was consoled by an Angel, and Our Lord visited him, saying, “Peace be with you, O Mark, My Disciple and My Evangelist. Fear nothing because I am near you.” The next day the pagan priests again dragged him through the streets, and he died saying, “Into Thy hands I commend my spirit.” The air became turbulent, and lighting and thunder broke through the sky. His disciples were able to collect and piously bury his remains. St. Mark's conversion of many people of Alexandria was a stark contrast to the dissolute and exorbitant way of life of the local social elites. St. Mark the Evangelist, Pray for us.

Catholic Drive Time - 877-757-9424 Date – Monday, April 24th - 2023 – St. Fidelis of Sigmaringen St. Fidelis of Sigmaringen was born as Mark Rey in 1577 in Sigmaringen, Prussia. He was a successful lawyer but disillusioned with the corruption and fraud in the legal system and society. Thus, he became a priest and joined the Capuchin Order at age 35, taking the name Fidelis. He was a remarkable orator and preached in various German, Austrian, and Swiss cities. His efforts were not confined to the pulpit, as he also wrote pamphlets against Calvinism and Zwinglianism. He was appointed as Superior at several monasteries and was also tasked by the Papal Nuncio to reform monasteries of other Orders. The Congregation for the Propagation of the Faith appointed the Capuchins to combat Calvinism in the region of Grisons, Switzerland, and Fr. Fidelis was chosen to lead the mission. He was so successful that the heretics became alarmed and spread rumors that he was preparing the way for the subjugation of the country by Austria. Despite this, he continued to preach, and in 1622, he was martyred by Calvinists who had surrounded him and offered to save his life if he would apostatize. He replied, "I came to extirpate your heresy, not to embrace it," and was killed with blows of swords. St. Fidelis presents an admirable example of fortitude and willingness to face martyrdom. St. Fidelis of Sigmaringen, Pray for us. INTRO – Happy Friday Need 70 subs on YouTube, Jonah turns 13 years old!

Conrad's writing style is characterized by its psychological depth, philosophical complexity, and vivid imagery. He was a master of the English language, despite it being his second language, and his writing continues to inspire and challenge readers today. Conrad's life was not without challenges. He faced poverty, illness, and personal tragedies throughout his life, but he continued to write prolifically until his death. His legacy has endured, and he is remembered as a brilliant writer and a pioneer of modernist literature.

Catholic Drive Time - 877-757-9424 Date – Friday, April 14th - 2023 – St. Benezet of Avignon St. Benezet of Avignon, also known as "Little Benezet" due to his short stature, received a mission from Heaven in 1177 to build a bridge over the Rhône River in Avignon, France. Despite having no resources or knowledge, he courageously went to the Bishop to inform him of his mission. The Bishop thought he was mad and sent him to the Governor, who also doubted his abilities. However, Benezet easily moved a large stone that 30 men could not, proving his mission was possible. With the Governor's support, donations poured in, and a confraternity of lay brothers was founded to help build the bridge. St. Benezet, known for his gift of miracles, directed and helped the builders. The Avignon Bridge was completed in 11 years, and other bridges were subsequently built by the Brotherhood of the Bridge Builders to facilitate travel for pilgrims, travelers, and the poor. St. Benezet's body was buried on the bridge and remained incorrupt for about 500 years until it was transferred to Avignon Cathedral in 1669. Through his remarkable achievements, St. Benezet demonstrated the power of Divine Providence and the greatness of soul that can be found in humble and seemingly insignificant individuals chosen by God for great works.

He initially followed his father, King Leovigild, in professing Arianism and was appointed to the throne of Seville. However, he converted to Catholicism through the influence of his Catholic wife, Ingund. When King Leovigild demanded that Hermenegild return to Arianism, he refused and was besieged in Seville for almost two years before fleeing to Cordoba and then Osseto. Despite offers of reconciliation, Hermenegild remained steadfast in his Catholic faith and refused to renounce it, even refusing to receive the sacrilegious Paschal Communion from an Arian bishop. As a result, he was sentenced to death by his father and was beheaded on April 13, 586. King Leovigild later repented and asked for forgiveness on his deathbed, and the martyrdom of St. Hermenegild is considered the first step in the conversion of all of Spain to Catholicism. St. Hermenegild, Pray for us.

Catholic Drive Time - 877-757-9424 Date – Wednesday, April 12th - 2023 – Pope St. Julius I Pope St. Julius I (337-352) fought against the Arians and acquired a reputation for sanctity. He convened the Council of Sardica in Illyria in 343, where he supported St. Athanasius, Bishop of Alexandria, in his battle against the Arian heresy. The Council confirmed St. Athanasius' innocence and deposed eight Arian bishops. The Fathers of the Council sent Pope Julius I a letter expressing their unity with him and denouncing the enemies of the Church. This letter is seen as a powerful anti-ecumenical document, emphasizing the Pope's role in supporting and defending the Catholic Faith against heresy. Pope St. Julius I's unwavering stance against the Arians and his support of orthodox doctrine earned him a reputation for holiness and courageous leadership in defense of the Faith. Pope St. Julius I, Pray for us. INTRO – Happy Wednesday of the Octave of Easter And – at 15 past the hour, John Henry Westen Kicked off of YouTube Also – at 30 past the hour, Is Covid Finally over?

Catholic Drive Time - 877-757-9424 Date – Thursday, April 6th - 2023 – St. Aphraates St. Aphraates, also known as Aphrahat, was born in Persia in 280 and died in 345. He was an anchorite and a sage who had the power of working miracles. He was a defender of the Catholic faith against the Arians in the fourth century. While the details of his miracles are unknown, it is fascinating to see a saint who used miracles as a form of apologetics. It is not clear why Our Lady does not give us the power to work miracles against today's heretics, but it is believed that the specific grace the counter-revolutionary receives is a special grace that gives him the possibility to see that the Holy, Roman, Catholic and Apostolic Church is the true Church and that the civil order based on Catholic doctrine is the true civil and temporal order. This grace relies, like any grace, on an acceptance of the will. These characteristics give us such clarity on what the True Religion is that we do not need to work miracles. St. Aphraates is a reminder that miracles are not necessary for our sanctification, and the miracle of faith is what is truly noble and beautiful. St. Aphraates Pray for us.

Catholic Drive Time - 877-757-9424 Date – Wednesday, April 5th - 2023 – St. Vincent Ferrer Saint Vincent Ferrer was a Dominican friar born in Valencia, Spain, in 1350. At a young age, he showed a strong devotion to God and joined the Dominican order, where he later became a renowned preacher and missionary. He traveled extensively throughout Europe, preaching the gospel and converting thousands of people. One of his most famous miracles occurred in 1411 when he was preaching in the city of Toledo, Spain. A group of Jews had challenged him to prove that Christianity was the true religion, and Vincent agreed to do so in front of a large crowd. As he spoke, a heavenly light shone down upon him, and the Jews fell to their knees and converted to Christianity. Another notable miracle happened in 1413 when Vincent was called to the bedside of a dying woman who had been bedridden for 12 years. As he prayed over her, she suddenly got up and walked, completely healed. Vincent was also known for his miraculous abilities to heal the sick and even bring the dead back to life. He was a prolific writer and composer of hymns, and his teachings on the end times and the Antichrist were highly influential. Along with St. Thomas Aquinas, he is credited with being one of the "dikes" that held back the intellectual and moral corruption of his era. He died in 1419 at the age of 62. St. Vincent Ferrer, Pray for us. INTRO – Blessed Spy Wednesday And – at 15 past the hour, Why are leftist so depressed? Also – at 30 past the hour, Shroud of Turin with Fr.
