The Prayer of Jesus in the Garden
OnePeterFive - Rebuilding Catholic Culture. Restoring Catholic Tradition.
by Fr. Ignatius of the Side of Jesus, Passionist
5h ago
The Last Supper being over, the discourse finished, and the hymn of thanksgiving said, Jesus leaves the supper-room with his eleven Apostles and enters the Garden of Gethsemane. Consider: 1. Jesus is in the habit of retiring after the fatigues of the day, to pass the night in solitude and prayer. Even on this last evening of His life, He does not depart from His pious custom.

Above: Christus mit der heiligen Veronika auf dem Weg zum Kalvarienberg, possibly from the Danube school, c. 1520. From The Liturgical Year. The holy liturgy is rich in mystery during these days of the Church’s celebrating the anniversaries of so many wonderful events; but as the principal part of these mysteries is embodied in the rites and ceremonies of the respective days… Source ..read more

Diebus Saltem Dominicis: Palm Sunday – Don’t be a froward ass.
OnePeterFive - Rebuilding Catholic Culture. Restoring Catholic Tradition.
by Fr. John Zuhlsdorf
5d ago
The journey we began even as early as the pre-Lent “Gesima” Sundays, has brought us to this last time of trial and transformation, the four days remaining in Passiontide and the last three, their own set, the Sacred Triduum. Some people will take the road of the least they can do, and perhaps attend Mass on Easter. Others will take advantage of the wonderous opportunity and do much more. Source ..read more

Against Pettiness
OnePeterFive - Rebuilding Catholic Culture. Restoring Catholic Tradition.
by Charles A. Coulombe
6d ago
If there is anything that really marks out our present era, it is pettiness – small-mindedness. One thinks immediately, of course, of the campaign against the Tridentine Mass on the part of many in the Catholic hierarchy. The torture in which so many prelates seem to delight ranges from closing down long-established Latin Mass communities to banishing that Mass from churches to gymnasia. Source ..read more

At the time of the promulgation of Traditionis Custodes in the Summer of 2021, I wrote that the bishops of England and Wales had seemingly decided to “slow walk” the implementation of the motu proprio—if not neglect it entirely. It seemed as if they wanted to wait and see… Source ..read more

Why the Pre-55 Holy Week Matters
OnePeterFive - Rebuilding Catholic Culture. Restoring Catholic Tradition.
by T. S. Flanders

At OnePeterFive we have attempted to probe the depths of the crisis beyond Vatican II and see the roots of many of the problems with Vatican II and its aftermath going back to the 19th century. Hence our emphasis on combatting the clericalism of the 19th century with the Two Swords doctrine and opposing hyerüberultramontanism – which is merely a species of clericalism – with the traditional… Source ..read more

Forgotten Customs of St. Joseph
OnePeterFive - Rebuilding Catholic Culture. Restoring Catholic Tradition.
by Matthew Plese

Along with St. Patrick, St. Thomas Aquinas, and the Annunciation, the feast of St. Joseph, foster father of our Lord Jesus Christ and patron of the Universal Church, falls during Lent. Yet, despite the necessity of maintaining Lenten penance in the form of fasting and abstinence, St. Joseph’s Day still provides amble opportunities for celebrating our Catholic heritage.

Above: scenes from the Passion by Duccio (1260-1319) From The Liturgical Year. After having proposed the forty-days’ fast of Jesus in the desert to the meditation of the faithful during the first four weeks of Lent, the holy Church gives the two weeks which still remain before Easter to the commemoration of the Passion. She would not have her children come to that great day of the… Source ..read more
