“If we march into that village and we start trying to persecute people for using poison, something that's very illegal, nobody's going to talk to us. We're not going to find out where the poison came from. We're not going to be able to shut anything down. We should take the approach that people are using poison because they're desperate, because they see no other alternative.” – Andrew Stein Andrew Stein is a wildlife ecologist who spent the past 25 years studying human carnivore conflict from African wild dogs and lions in Kenya and Botswana to leopards and hyenas in Namibia. His work has long focused on finding ways for people and predators to coexist. He is the founder of CLAWS , an organization based in Botswana that's working at the intersection of cutting-edge wildlife research and community driven conservation. Since its start in 2014 and official launch as an NGO in 2020, CLAWS has been pioneering science-based, tech-forward strategies to reduce conflict between people and carnivores. By collaborating closely with local communities, especially traditional cattle herders, CLAWS supports both species conservation and rural livelihoods—making coexistence not just possible, but sustainable.…

He Jumped on a Grenade to Save His Fellow Marines (Easter Sunday, 1967) 9:50

5 days ago9:50

See pictures of Doug Dickey by watching the video: https://youtu.be/Qia6M8uZiZA During World War II, Venerable Fulton Sheen compiled a prayer book for soldiers titled “The Armor of God.” In it he wrote that the vocation of a soldier is next in dignity to the priesthood, not only because it commissioned him to defend justice on the field of battle and order on the field of peace, but also because it called him to the spirit and intention of sacrifice. And in the Gospel of Saint John we read, “Greater love than this no man hath, that a man lay down his life for his friends” (John 15:13). When I read that verse the other day I immediately thought of a Medal of Honor recipient who laid down his life to save his brothers in arms on Easter Sunday in 1967 during the Vietnam War. His name was Douglas Dickey, a United States Marine who had the rare quality of being pure of heart. His story is especially compelling since he seemed to have premonitions of the violent way he would die, even when he was a child. He didn’t show the slightest hesitation when called upon to make the ultimate sacrifice, which is why I think it’s fitting to reflect on his act of valor during Holy Week when Our Lord sacrificed His life so that we could have eternal life. I’m using an article written by a friend of mine, Mr. Norman Fulkerson, that’s based on the book, “A Final Valiant Act,” by Lt. Col. John Lang. Sources: Lt. Col. John B. Lang, “A Final Valiant Act: The Story of Doug Dickey” (Havertown, Penn: Casemate Publishers, 2020). https://www.amazon.com/Final-Valiant-Act-Story-Dickey/dp/1612007570 Norman Fulkerson, “Doug Dickey: A Pure and Combative Warrior” (TFP.org). https://www.tfp.org/doug-dickey-a-pure-and-combative-warrior/…

St. Therese Appears with a Sword in Battle (1917) 5:17

14 days ago5:17

The audio probably won't make sense until you wach the video: https://youtu.be/bWsgzqsXaa4 This letter is addressed to His Reverence, the parish priest of Contrexéville (Vosges). Contrexéville, December 23, 1917, auxiliary hospital no 9, bed no 69. Considering I have had faith in the Servant of God Thérèse of the Child Jesus since March, 1916, I want to relate the following fact, begging you to kindly forward it to the Carmelite monastery of Lisieux. On October 3, 1917, my regiment, the 2nd March Regiment of the Tlemcen Fusiliers (Algeria), was appointed to take possession of the sector of the woods of Caurières and Bezonvaux in Eastern France. On October 4, my group arrived in the valley, and I was appointed by my officer to defend the front of the communication trench which led to our lines and was situated 60 meters ahead toward the enemy lines, in case of an attack. From that date to October 13, 1917, we were exposed on a daily basis to heavy bombardments and gas emissions, from which I was always spared. There were frequent attacks from the enemy in the other groups of my regiment. Seeing how things were going, I told my lieutenant: "I expect us in all probability to be attacked this way before we are relieved.” And here’s what happened: On October 14, at about half past three in the morning, I was standing in my usual place, when I was suddenly dazzled by a great silver brightness, and much to my astonishment, before my eyes, I saw Sister Thérèse like an angel. She was walking left and right, holding in her hand a very short saber. I was compelled to follow her, and I found myself in front of a swamp that made a natural defense and was located behind our lines. I rubbed my eyes, pinched myself and said to myself: "You are not asleep, though. What does that all mean?" In brief, I went back to my previous place, and saw once more with surprise this vision moving about in like manner. I then understood it was a warning from Heaven. I didn't lose a single minute; I quickly inspected my post and had the pins pulled out of my grenades, in case of an unforeseen attack. When it was all over, I picked up my watch, which said that it was four o'clock, and I thought: it's just the time when the Boches usually launch an attack. I said nothing to my men, except that they had to watch well and be careful. I had been surveilling the side of the swamp for no more than two minutes when I saw a crawling shadow sneak away, then two, then three, in single file. I first believed the relief patrol was arriving and immediately challenged them in Arabic with the word Chkoune, which means: "Who goes there?" But the sole response I received was to hear a grenade burst, which, fortunately enough, landed beyond the small parapet of the communication trench. "Here are the Boches,'' I exclaimed. "Grenadiers, bombard!"' I immediately threw three grenades; I then saw a German advancing toward me. No hesitation. I killed him right away with a shot of my automatic Pistol, and he fell down at my feet. From that moment on, it turned into a huge exchange of grenades and almost hand-to-hand fighting. I didn't lose my courage, I stirred up my men, and, soon wounded myself, I only commanded the louder: "Bombard!" But there was no more reaction from the enemy. Down to my last ounce of strength, I sat on the parapet. Everything was quiet again; I was relieved by my section officer arriving with reinforcements, and then evacuated to the dressing post with all my men, including four wounded. I didn't forget to immediately thank my Protector, who has always preserved me since December 1916, and whose celestial warning was our safety. This declaration is certified by the author himself, whose signature below can be published; he recommends to all his comrades the utmost confidence in the Servant of God, Thérèse of the Child Jesus.

Thankful! 1:51

I was bored of driving, so I made up this silly poem today. I'm not sure if I really like all these things... it just fit the poem. https://youtube.com/shorts/7j4JRBFFV3o Thankful! If it's a terrible day, remember That you should never lose your temper. If you are muddled in toils and strife, Perhaps you should think of the finer things in life. The swish-pop of a well-earned beer. Aiming an arrow at a stock-still deer. Steaming coffee in your cup. The sweet brown eyes of your loving pup. I don't mean to be sappy, But these things make me happy. Ardbeg Whiskey in a glass. A front-row seat in a Latin Mass. The cheerful chirping of a cricket Getting out of a speeding ticket. It all keeps me from stressing When life can be depressing. Crackling tobacco in corncob pipes. Old Glory with her stars and stripes. Being first in Confession line And the wonderful smell of pine. I don't know what all this means to you, But it makes me feel fine. Steaks medium-rare. Snow flakes in your hair. The smile of a loved one. Ah… the glory of a setting sun And when a fish takes the bait, It just makes me feel great. Finishing your Rosary late at night, That you be ready for tomorrow's fight. Friendly conversation by the fire. Beautiful high notes of a Tenebrae choir. Handling the grip of a well built gun. This is what I'm all about, son. Is it wrong that I admire what God has given me? The crisp mountain air and the rolling sea! I need to travel! To witness the glory of Rome. But for now, New York is my home. All in all, I'm content With these consolations heaven sent To keep me sane in this mad, mad world, Knowing that I am furled In Mary's Mantle. SO… when sufferings cut like a knife, Thank God for the finer things in life. Hope you liked it. I was more or less just sleep deprived.…

He Wore Armor Under His Carmelite Habit — Saint Nuno 8:37

7 weeks ago8:37

8:37

Portuguese Count Nuno Alvares Pereira had a brilliant military career and became the Constable of Portugal. Later, out of gratitude for a miraculous victory he won over the Spaniards, Saint Nuno built the Gothic church of Our Lady of the Scapular of Mount Carmel on a hill outside of Lisbon. He gave the church to the Carmelite order, and then joined them as a simple lay brother. Saint Nuno’s combative life and his devotion serve as an example for Catholics today who must fight to affirm their Faith in a secular world. As we will see, he drew his strength for the fight from his great devotion to Our Lady. Saint Nuno was born and grew up outside Ourem near Fatima where Our Lady appeared in 1917, and from his youth, he had an ardent devotion to her, the Rosary and to the Brown Scapular. During the 14th century, Portugal had nearly become a province of the Kingdom of Castile. Spain had already defeated Portugal’s armies, and the Portuguese court was weak and decadent. Most of Saint Nuno’s life was spent fighting the Spanish to preserve Portuguese independence. His most important battles were Atoleiros, Aljubarrota (very near Fatima), and Valverde inside of Spain.…

Gathered in a wooden church dedicated to Our Lady of Good Help, a small group of Catholics begged God to intervene.

Watch the video: https://youtu.be/a9mmQm44Uzk The Story of the First Nativity Scene taken from “The Life of Saint Francis of Assisi” by Saint Bonaventure (Chapter X, Section 7). “Now three years before his death it befell that he was minded, at the town of Greccio, to celebrate the memory of the Birth of the Child Jesus, with all the added solemnity that he might, for the kindling of devotion. That this might not seem an innovation, he sought and obtained license from the Supreme Pontiff, and then made ready a manger, and bade hay, together with an ox and an ass, be brought unto the spot. The Brethren were called together, the folk assembled, the wood echoed with their voices, and that august night was made radiant and solemn with many bright lights, and with tuneful and sonorous praises. The man of God, filled with tender love, stood before the manger, bathed in tears, and overflowing with joy. Solemn Masses were celebrated over the manger, Francis, the Levite of Christ, chanting the Holy Gospel. Then he preached unto the folk standing round of the Birth of the King in poverty, calling Him, when he wished to name Him, the Child of Bethlehem, by reason of his tender love for Him. A certain knight, valorous and true, Messer John of Greccio, who for the love of Christ had left the secular army, and was bound by closest friendship unto the man of God, declared that he beheld a little Child right fair to see sleeping in that manger. Who seemed to be awakened from sleep when the blessed Father Francis embraced Him in both arms. This vision of the devout knight is rendered worthy of belief, not alone through the holiness of him that beheld it, but is also confirmed by the truth that it set forth, and withal proven by the miracles that followed it. For the ensample of Francis, if meditated upon by the world, must needs stir up sluggish hearts unto the faith of Christ, and the hay that was kept back from the manger by the folk proved a marvellous remedy for sick beasts, and a prophylactic against divers other plagues, God magnifying by all means His servant, and making manifest by clear and miraculous portents the efficacy of his holy prayers.” The excellent music in this episode is performed by The Benedictines of Mary Queen of Apostles.

This Song Has a Hidden Meaning: "The 12 Days of Christmas" 5:51

19 weeks ago5:51

Watch the video: https://youtu.be/xCnyX27UwF4 We’ve all heard the song "The 12 Days of Christmas," a delightful but apparently nonsensical rhyme set to music, but it’s a good deal more than just a repetitious melody with pretty phrases and a list of strange gifts. From the year 1558 to 1829, Catholics in England were prohibited by law from the practice of their faith. The religion was officially illegal until Parliament finally enacted the Catholic Emancipation Act in 1829. Until then, it was a crime to be a Catholic and to be faithful to the Pope. Fr. Hal Stockert claimed that the 12 Days of Christmas was written as one of the catechetical songs to help young Catholics learn the tenets of their faith. It was a memory aid when to be caught with anything popish would not only get you imprisoned, but possibly hanged, shortened by a head, or even subjected to the awful ordeal of being hung, drawn and quartered. I'm not 100% sure where Fr. Stockert got his information and all of this is being hotly debated online, but in my research no one can definitively prove their argument one way or the other, so at the end of the day there’s no reason why we can't put a Catholic meaning to the song if we want to.…

Chastisement Prophecies from Catholic Mystics 15:12

Watch the video: https://youtu.be/C90YOuIPzZY The common thread that runs through latter day prophecies seems to be the foretelling of a terrible chastisement of the world due to an unrepentant mankind and then the resurgence of the Church, and the conversion of the world. E.H. Thompson keenly pointed this out in his book, “Life of Anna Maria Taigi.” In Chapter 18, he wrote: "First they all point to some terrible convulsion, to a revolution springing from deep-rooted impiety, consisting in a formal opposition to God and His truth, and resulting in the most formidable persecution to which the Church has ever been subject. Secondly, they all promise for the Church a victory more splendid than she has ever achieved here below." Here is Don Bosco's prophecy that I mentioned: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nGu8c9HjTao…

St. John Neumann Debated Protestants in Their Own Church & Won 12:56

Watch the video: https://youtu.be/sHRI77R6vSM I had just gone to Confession at St. Mary’s Church in York, Pennsylvania when upon walking out into the vestibule, I saw a painting of a young, strong faced bishop with a cross hung around his neck. I learned his name from the plaque on the frame: “St. John Neumann, pray for us.” This painting reminded me of many others I’d seen in Churches all throughout the diocese and even across New York. My mind was plagued with questions about him. What did he do? Why are there so many portraits of him in northern churches? Little did I know that he built 89 churches in the course of seven years and opened almost a hundred schools. The ground that I walked on was sanctified by his heroic sacrifice more than a hundred years ago. Upon further research, I found that his intransigent personality is best understood when you look at his early days as a missionary priest on the rough frontiers of 19th century America. In this video you’ll hear of his apostolate at Niagara Falls and Buffalo where he cured a blind girl, shut down an immoral dance at a dangerous bar, publicly debated protestants in their own meeting house and was almost hanged by ruffians. These are the books that I used for my research: “Life of the Right Rev. J.N. Neumann, C.SS.R.” by Johann Berger. New York: Benziger Brothers, 1884. 22.
