Mother Miriam Live - April 17, 2024 A final word on Dignitas Infinita A powerful excerpt about a post-Antichrist world Pleading with Our Holy Father Do you think heretical sects like the Palmarian church could have been prevented if we had avoided the sentiments of Vatican II? Mother's upcoming catechism class

Mother Miriam Live - April 15, 2024 The strengths and weaknesses of Dignitas Infinita How should we react to a Catholic apologist's stating that Judas might not be in hell? Should I keep donating to my parish, which seems to already have an abundance of money coming in that may even be misused or wasted? Do you know of a good Catholic book from a saint or priest regarding holy marital intimacy that is pleasing to God? The number of faithful is rising, but the number of priestly vocations is lowering. Discussing this trend and what we can, or should, do about it Can we be encouraged by Pope Francis' recent speaking out against gender affirming surgeries, or is it all just a smoke screen? Should we be praying for Republican Presidential candidates like Donald Trump to speak out against things like abortion in their campaigns, even if it might have a negative affect on their polling numbers and ultimately lead to a Democratic candidate winning the election? If we were to do this, couldn't we ultimately be contributing to the re-expansion of abortion across the United States and therefore hurting our own cause in a roundabout way?

Mother Miriam Live - April 11, 2024 Continuing unpacking the new Vatican document Dignitas Infinita Why do people converse unnecessarily in front of Our Lord at so many parishes? What can be done to stop the mess? If I was Baptized in a state of mortal sin, was my Baptism invalid? What should be done with blessed items that I have purchased not knowing that it was wrong to do so? Is it a sin to use them and should they be gotten rid of? Do I need to confess any of this? My ex-wife wants our young son to take the MMR vaccine, which I am against because it includes aborted fetal cells. What should I do? Is it unusual for Catholic churches to have full-body immersion Baptismal fonts with steps to walk right in? Is this maybe a regional thing? In images of Our Lady of Fatima (statues and portraits), she always seems to have her head tilting to the left. Is that intentional for any reason? When praying the First Five Fridays/Saturdays Devotion(s), if I miss one of the days, must I then start over from the very beginning?

Mother Miriam Live - April 10, 2024 Unpacking the new Vatican document Dignitas Infinita Am I able to offer my Nine First Fridays to the Sacred Heart for final repentance of a living member of my family? I remarried to a man whom I later discovered to be a narcissist and I'm not sure what to do. Can you offer me any tips? Navigating long term issues with siblings and other family members

Mother Miriam Live - April 9, 2024 Practices for Paschal Time A saint's canonization is supposedly infallible, correct? What is the source claiming that canonization is infallible? Was it a council? Is the declaration of a person as Venerable and Blessed also infallible? Is there an official published list of saints from the Catholic Church? My understanding is that there is a "Congregation" whose job it is to assist in the beatification process. And before this "Congregation," the authority fell to the local bishops to canonize a saint in their diocese. When the Congregation took over, did they have all the bishops everywhere send in their list of Saints? Is buying or selling Holy Water a mortal sin? Someone told me that if one spouse is saved, their spouse is saved because of the first spouse being saved. This can't be true, right?

Mother Miriam Live - April 8, 2024 Reflecting on today's first-class feast, The Annunciation of Mary Mother's live reaction to the solar eclipse The new member of my parish choir uses they/them pronouns. Should I speak to her about this or leave the parish altogether? What is the difference between the Heaven that Jewish people believe in and the Heaven that Jesus sacrificed to give Christians? What are your thoughts on the recent messages from Our Lord given to those in the Order of the Mission of Divine Mercy? Why does the Church have incorruptible bodies of Saints on display?

Mother Miriam Live - April 5, 2024 Continuing with The Mystery of Paschal Time from Dom Prosper Gueranger What does it mean to truly forgive someone and how can we tell if we've done so? I feel I missed my calling to religious life. I'm now married with children, but I still feel the call. What can I do about it and how can I process this? Where in the Bible does it state that we cannot attend the wedding of someone who is not practicing the faith and not being married in the church? How can we defend our decision not to attend such an event?

Mother Miriam Live - April 4, 2024 Continuing The History of Paschal Time - a reflection by Dom Prosper Gueranger What is the Catholic position on the Rapture of the church? How does the church explain where different races of humans came from? Is it appropriate to give priests gifts for Christmas, Easter and/or Birthdays? If it is, what would be the best? Also, is it okay to invite them for lunch or dinner? What is the proper way to discard broken Rosaries? Why might a person receive ONLY the Precious Blood during Mass?

Mother Miriam Live - April 3, 2024 The History of Paschal Time - a reflection by Dom Prosper Gueranger Is there a specific Psalm that you've remembered since the time when you used to be a Protestant? I found a St. Benedict medal randomly out in the world a while ago. I started doing some research and I noticed that in the one I've found, the broken cup and snake are not present - only the bird on the other side. Do you know why that is or what it could mean? I feel as if I'm not doing a great job at defending the Catholic stance on the issue of when life begins. How can I better convince someone who wants to debate without using any religious points?
