Our Lady Help of Christians (24 May): Help is Needed & Strength for the End Times

About this sermon

Our Lady Help of Christians has been invoked by Catholics for centuries in times of persecution, war, suffering, and spiritual crisis. In this powerful traditional Catholic sermon, the history of this ancient Marian title is explored — from St. John Chrysostom to Pope Pius VII after the defeat of Napoleon and the devastation of the French Revolution. This sermon examines the collapse of Christendom, the rise of secularism, and why modern Catholics must understand suffering through the Passion of Christ. The faithful are reminded that the Church herself must suffer, and that Our Lady’s help does not always remove suffering — sometimes she increases our strength to endure it faithfully. Topics include: The Feast of Our Lady Help of Christians Pope Pius VII and Napoleon The destruction of Christendom after the French Revolution Catholic civilization and modern secular society Spiritual reading and conforming ourselves to the saints The two kinds of suffering Christians endure St. Peter rebuked by Christ in Matthew 16 Accepting God’s providence with peace and courage Enduring the Passion of the Church today May Our Lady Help of Christians intercede for the Church and strengthen all faithful Catholics in these difficult times. 📿 Pray for the Church.
