Sad that the persecution of the TLM will likely drive this. https://www.cureprayergroup.org/blog/Vianney/entry/i-know-that-ravening-wolves#comment-1769351563594 Barbara Manson 2026-01-25T10:32:43-04:00 2026-01-25T10:32:43-04:00 It is discouraging to see the sad repetition of history. Such again is our time now. But these times produce saints and heroes. From this we must take courage, while we pray and fast. Soli Deo Gloria https://www.cureprayergroup.org/blog/Vianney/entry/the-doctrines-of-godliness-are#comment-1767445070185 JB 2026-01-03T08:57:50-04:00 2026-01-03T08:57:50-04:00 Boy, does this ever ring true today. There might be nothing new under the sun, but there also might be more of it in today's world. https://www.cureprayergroup.org/blog/Vianney/entry/prayer-to-the-sacred-heart1#comment-1767356190364 JB 2026-01-02T08:16:30-04:00 2026-01-02T08:16:30-04:00 Saint Pius X was certainly prescient . https://www.cureprayergroup.org/blog/Vianney/entry/st-john-apostle-and-evangelist#comment-1766850621708 Carol Baverstock 2025-12-27T11:50:21-04:00 2025-12-27T11:50:21-04:00 " . . . yet it is not allowed us, under the oppression of the most weighty afflictions, to lose our comfort and rest in Christ . . . Teach us then, O blessed Redeemer, so to regulate all our affections, that neither the love of what we possess, nor the trouble for what we want, may ever arise to such excess, as to separate us from thee." How do we live in these times? We are loosing more and more especially privacy, true personal property ownership, proper governance, and more. If we have Christ, we have all we need. Nobody can take the love of Christ away. Peace be with us! https://www.cureprayergroup.org/blog/Vianney/entry/st-damasus-pope-and-confessor#comment-1765453007566 J. 2025-12-11T07:36:47-04:00 2025-12-11T07:36:47-04:00 A timely prayer.

I repeat: what a splendid prayer! Would that every bishop in our time would say this prayer often, and take to his own heart the concern shown by Saint Ambrose for his flock as well as for his own holiness. https://www.cureprayergroup.org/blog/Vianney/entry/saint-john-paul-ii-pope1#comment-1761141680279 Robbie Hilton 2025-10-22T10:01:20-04:00 2025-10-22T10:01:20-04:00 St. John Vianny Pray for our priests. https://www.cureprayergroup.org/blog/Vianney/entry/prayer-for-the-protection-of1#comment-1759147470641 Barbara Manson 2025-09-29T08:04:30-04:00 2025-09-29T08:04:30-04:00 Beautiful prayer, CAPG, for today and the time ahead. https://www.cureprayergroup.org/blog/Vianney/entry/prayer-for-the-protection-of1#comment-1759146942143 J. 2025-09-29T07:55:42-04:00 2025-09-29T07:55:42-04:00 A beautiful prayer and never more needed for the church than it is today https://www.cureprayergroup.org/blog/Vianney/entry/ember-wednesday-the-day-christ1#comment-1758713582093 J. 2025-09-24T07:33:02-04:00 2025-09-24T07:33:02-04:00 The prayer for priests is never more needed than it is today. https://www.cureprayergroup.org/blog/Vianney/entry/feast-of-the-most-holy#comment-1757678649934 Robbie Hilton 2025-09-12T08:04:09-04:00 2025-09-12T08:04:09-04:00 Beautiful!

Love to hear that he was instrumental in reconciling two heroes of mine, St. Maximus and St. Athanasius. Turbulence in the Church is nothing new. We get tangled up so easily. How ever does the Holy Spirit manage to keep working with us? Saint Paphnuncius, pray for us! https://www.cureprayergroup.org/blog/Vianney/entry/st-philip-benizi-and-the#comment-1755956624681 Barbara Manson 2025-08-23T09:43:44-04:00 2025-08-23T09:43:44-04:00 "Fortunately for these religious...." What a mirror reflecting our own time with the controversy over celebration TLM. St. Philip Benzi does just a year before the suppression of his order was discontinued. Pope Leo XIV, exaudi nos! St. Philip Benzi, ora pro nobis! https://www.cureprayergroup.org/blog/Vianney/entry/saint-john-eudes-priest-bad#comment-1755616203419 Carol Baverstock 2025-08-19T11:10:03-04:00 2025-08-19T11:10:03-04:00 Excellent writing by St. John Eudes! We do need to pray for our Priests and how they handle confessions for their sake and the sake of the penitent. In Counsels to Confessors, Saint Leonard of Port Maurice says, "If, for a just reason, absolution must be postponed, let him persuade the penitents as kindly as possible that it is necessary, that it is the confessor’s duty and obligation, and that their own salvation demands this. The priest should encourage them very tenderly to return as soon as possible, so that, having done faithfully the things which were prescribed for their salvation, they may break the bonds of sin and be refreshed by the sweetness of heavenly grace." Priests should have courage and be encouraged by scripture and the words of Jesus, "Whose sins you shall forgive, they are forgiven them; and whose sins you shall retain, they are retained." [John 20:23] https://www.cureprayergroup.org/blog/Vianney/entry/saint-joachim#comment-1755344575383 J. 2025-08-16T07:42:55-04:00 2025-08-16T07:42:55-04:00 This is never more needed than today.

How precious! Now I'm on the lookout for a copy to own. Good Saint Anne is one of my sweet patrons at this stage of life as a mother and grandmother. https://www.cureprayergroup.org/blog/Vianney/entry/st-silverius-pope-and-martyr#comment-1750422208357 J. 2025-06-20T08:23:28-04:00 2025-06-20T08:23:28-04:00 A beautiful prayer for our clergy.

When I am in congregation, I pray "Holy Spirit, Love Divine, glow within these hearts of Thine!"

I've told this story before, but it's a good 'un. When someone voiced concerns about seeing St. Peter of Verona with the axe in his head, thinking it may be too graphic for children, our dear priest at the time pointed to the giant hanging crucifix above the altar and asked "should I take that one down too?" https://www.cureprayergroup.org/blog/Vianney/entry/day-43-lent-with-the#comment-1744824225509 Nancy Brockhoff 2025-04-16T13:23:45-04:00 2025-04-16T13:23:45-04:00 These days of Lent with the Cure d'Ars have been helpful and will keep me on track (please God) for the rest of my life.

Nicely put together ! https://www.cureprayergroup.org/blog/Vianney/entry/jan-18-the-return-of#comment-1737220626385 Carol Baverstock 2025-01-18T13:17:06-04:00 2025-01-18T13:17:06-04:00 Sometimes as an intention before the Rosary or perhaps at other times people pray for the conversion of poor sinners. It would be wonderful to add also for "the conversion of those outside the fold. This would be especially powerful when praying the Rosary with others at Church. We want them to be unified with us in the one true Church founded by Christ receiving graces through the Sacraments and through all that the Catholic Church offers! Mary will help. https://www.cureprayergroup.org/blog/Vianney/entry/st-ambrose-bishop-confessor-doctor#comment-1733596822067 Barbara Manson 2024-12-07T14:40:22-04:00 2024-12-07T14:40:22-04:00 What a splendid prayer we have from Saint Ambrose!
