CITY OF GOD IN EXILE St. Pius I, Pope and Martyr 2026-07-11 - Time after Pentecost - Simple - red TODAY IN THE ROMAN YEAR Pentecost teaches that the Holy Ghost does not create private religious enthusiasm detached from doctrine, worship, and authority. He gathers, sends, teaches, and strengthens the visible Church. The remnant must therefore seek fire without disorder and zeal without novelty. PRACTICE Choose one known duty and obey it without delay or complaint. ROMAN MARTYROLOGY - July 11 At Rome, the blessed Pius, pope and martyr, who was crowned with martyrdom in the persecution of Marcus Aurelius Antoninus. — At Mcopolis, in Armenia, the birthday of the holy martyrs Januarius and Pelagia, who for four days were racked, torn with iron claws and pieces of earthenware, and thus achieved their martyrdom. — In the territory of Sens, St. Sidronius, martyr. — At Iconium, St. Marcian, martyr, who obtained the palm of martyrdom by many torments, under the governor Perennius. — At Sida, in Pamphylia, St. Cindeus, priest, in the time of the emperor Diocletian and the governor Stratonicus. After suffering many torments, he was thrown into the fire, but remaining uninjured, he yielded up his soul in prayer. — At Brescia, the holy martyrs Savinus and Cyprian. — At Bergamo, St. John, a bishop, who was killed by the Arians for defending the Catholic faith. — At Cordova, St. Abundius, a priest, crowned with martyrdom whilst preaching against the sect of Mahomet. — In the territory of Poitiers, St. Sabinus, confessor. GOSPEL OF THE DAY Blessed are they who hear the word of God and keep it. Saturday Mass of the Blessed Virgin Mary - Luke 11:27-28 "Yea rather, blessed are they who hear the word of God, and keep it." Give Saturday to Our Lady in some concrete way. Let her teach you to hear, keep, and remain faithful in the ordinary hours. HIGHLIGHTED SAINT The Blessed Virgin Mary The faithful Virgin kept before the Church on Saturday. The Saturday Mass of the Blessed Virgin Mary keeps Our Lady before the faithful during ordinary weeks, teaching that Christian perseverance remains Marian: humble, obedient, recollected, and near Christ. This observance does not turn attention away from Our Lord. It shows the soul how to receive Him: hearing the word of God, keeping it, and remaining faithful when the week has been ordinary. Let Saturday become a small Marian gate in the week. In exile, ordinary days need a motherly refuge as much as feast days do. BREVIARY WITNESS Blessed are they who hear the word of God and keep it. Matins - Saturday Mass of the Blessed Virgin Mary - The Saturday remembrance of the Blessed Virgin Mary teaches the Church to pass through ordinary time with Marian fidelity. - Our Lady's blessedness is not sentimental admiration alone; it is hearing, keeping, pondering, and obeying the word of God. Keep the ordinary day under Mary's mantle. Fidelity is often preserved by quiet obedience before it becomes visible courage. TRUTH OF THE FAITH The Church Is Visible and Founded by Christ The true Church is not an invisible collection of private opinions, but the society founded by Our Lord, teaching, sanctifying, and governing in His name. Mark of the Church: Apostolic Defender: St. Robert Bellarmine Catholic defense: Apostolicity guards continuity of doctrine, worship, mission, and authority. The faithful do not invent the Church; they receive her from Christ through the Apostles. Error to resist: Resist the claim that a self-made religious fellowship can replace the Church Christ visibly founded. PRAYER O Lord, do not permit me to admire truth without submitting to it. Give me the courage to obey what Thou hast already made known.
