Psalm 91 is one of the most cherished passages in the Bible, often called the “Psalm of Protection.” It’s a poetic declaration of God’s sheltering presence, offering comfort and assurance to those who trust in Him.

All of the YouTube videos that have been uploaded to our channel have been edited by me. I use various software (Gimp, Canva, and Movavi 2025 Video Editor, and ElevenLabs) to put the videos together.
One of the software tools, ElevenLabs, allows me to use ‘Text To Speech’ technology. Basically I can write out into text, and then pick an artificial intelligence voice to create the audio. I have been doing this because I was under the impression that my own voice may not be good enough for the prayer voice overs.
Well, I am looking into breaking away from using ElevenLabs, and using my own voice, and that of my wife as well, in future videos. Read More

Purgatory is a place of purification or temporary punishment in which the souls of those who die in a state of grace are made ready for Heaven. It’s for those who have died in God’s grace and friendship, but still need to be cleansed of venial sins or to atone for sins that have not been fully expiated in life.
As Catholics, when we partake of the Sacrament of Reconciliation, we confess our sins and they are forgiven. However, we still need to face temporal atonement, to cleans our soul of those sins, before being able to enter into Heaven. That soul cleansing occurs in Purgatory. Read More
The Canticle of the Sun, also known as “Laudes Creaturarum” or “Praise of the Creatures,” is a poem written by Saint Francis of Assisi around 1224. It’s one of the earliest works of literature in the Italian language. For as long as I can remember, I have been interested in Saint Francis, and have read his writings and studied about his life.

Saint Scholastica was a Christian saint, born in Italy around 480 AD. She is known primarily as the twin sister of Saint Benedict of Nursia, who is considered the founder of Western Christian monasticism.

As I write this, I have been including the Saint Bridget 12 Year Devotional Prayer in my daily prayers every day since October 4th of the previous year. As the name of the prayer implies, yes, it is meant to be prayed every day over the course of twelve years. That is quite the commitment, as most would agree. But why would people endeavor to such a long devotional prayer? And many do, or at least try to. Read More
