New from RTV... In this latest installment of The Lake Garda Interviews, Michael chats with Oxford fellow and chairman of the Latin Mass Society of England and Wales, Dr. Joseph Shaw:

- What's happening with the traditional movement in the UK?
- What is the Latin Mass Society of England and Wales?
- What was the Agatha Christie Indult?
- What's the attitude among English traditionalists on Brexit?
- How has the pontificate of Pope Francis altered the situation?
- Why are so many Catholics no longer having large families?
- What's the connection between cultural decay and contraception?

“Let those who are still separated from Us consider attentively the ancient glories of their Church which were at once a reflection and an increment of the glories of the Church of Rome. Let them consider, moreover, and remember that this Apostolic See has been waiting for them so long and so anxiously, not as coming to a strange dwelling place, but as finally returning to their paternal home.” – Pope Pius XI

In Nomine Patris, et Filii, et Spiritus Sancti. Amen.

In the Liturgical Calendar, last Sunday was the Sixth Sunday after Pentecost.  In the hearts of those who love the Blessed Virgin Mary – which should be ALL of us – that Sunday, July 16, was the Feast of Our Lady of Mount Carmel: “Beatae Mariae Virginis de Monte Carmelo.”

During this 100th Anniversary Year of the appearances of Our Lady of Fatima, recall that on October 13, 1917 the Mother of God appeared at one point during the Great Miracle of the Sun to Jacinta, Francisco and Lucia as Our Lady of Mount Carmel, holding forth a Brown Scapular.  Keep in mind that whenever Our Lady of Fatima appeared to the three shepherd children, She always had a star on the hem of Her gown.

From our Friends of the Traditional Latin Mass in Cleveland, Woodlawn Council 2161 has been informed of the following event and asked to please spread the word.

Everyone is welcome.  Please spread the word.

On the occasion of the 500th year anniversary of the deplorable Lutheran reformation St. Thomas Aquinas Institute for Catholic Apologetics issued a forthright work on the Father of Protestantism and his doctrine.

“Luther’s True Face”, written by a French scholar and clergyman, Fr. Jean-Michel Gleize of St Pius X Society, brings back into the light of day historical facts, too often forgotten by modern Catholics and Protestants alike. What was Luther’s career before 1517? How long was the “shortest seminary formation in history”? Why and how did he form his protestant doctrine? What was the situation in the Church at the time? All these questions and more receive clear answers from an author skilled in Thomist precision and Aristotelian logic.

Years ago I was brought in as a priest to a psych ward in a VA hospital to work with a suicidal Vietnam veteran. His family was convinced that the root of his problem was not merely mental but diabolical. After spending some time with the tormented veteran, I agreed that something diabolical was at work. One thing I remember the veteran saying was that he “danced with the devil.” I shudder at the thought!

Just in from Joshua J. McElwee of National Catholic Reporter: Francis puts a new sign on his door: 'No whining'

Pope Francis has placed a new sign on the door of his room in the Vatican's Domus Sanctae Marthae hotel. "No whining" it reads, warning that offenders "are subject to developing a victim complex, resulting in a lowering ... of their capacity to solve problems."

"The penalty is doubled whenever the violation is committed in the presence of children," the sign advises, adding: "To be your best you have to focus on your own potential and not on your limits, so stop whining and act to make your life better."  Read More HERE

Chris Jackson's Comment:  “The irony never ends. The scary part is it is totally lost on Francis.” 

Dear Remnant Readers:

I am happy to let you know that Editora Permanência (a Brazilian traditional Catholic editing house) has published the first book of Michael Davies’ trilogy, "Liturgical Revolution (Cranmer’s Godly Order)" in the Portuguese language (A Reforma Litúrgica de Cranmer), a work I had the honor to translate. The other two books are on their way (already translated and being revised).

I thought you would like to know about it and maybe help us to spread the news now that the book is available at the Permanência website: http://www.editorapermanencia.net/a-reforma-liturgica-de-cranmer.html

Thank you. Our Lord bless you all there at The Remnant.
