St. Pashcal Baylon, Confessor (17 May) ~ Dom Prosper Guéranger

About this sermon

St. Paschal Baylon is one of the Church’s greatest Eucharistic saints — a humble Franciscan lay brother whose love for the Blessed Sacrament transformed his soul into a living flame of contemplation. In this reading from The Liturgical Year by Dom Prosper Guéranger for May 17th, we hear the remarkable story of St. Paschal Baylon: shepherd, contemplative, defender of the Real Presence, and lover of humility. Though poor and uneducated, God filled him with heavenly wisdom and extraordinary sanctity. From tending sheep in the fields of Spain to ecstatic prayer before the Blessed Sacrament, St. Paschal’s life reveals the beauty of hidden holiness and total devotion to Our Lord Jesus Christ. This powerful meditation explores: • The humility of St. Paschal Baylon • His devotion to the Holy Eucharist • Franciscan spirituality and contemplation • The path of suffering and union with Christ • The glory of perseverance in the spiritual life • Catholic teaching on the Real Presence May this reading inspire deeper love for Our Eucharistic King and greater fidelity to the risen Christ. “Behold, I stand at the gate and knock...” — Apocalypse 3:20 📖 Source: The Liturgical Year by Dom Prosper Guéranger 0:00 Introduction 0:17 The Humble Saint Chosen by St. Francis 0:49 Paschal’s Love for Contemplation 1:04 Entering the Franciscan Life 1:27 Sharing in Christ’s Triumph 1:59 Biography from the Liturgy 2:30 Shepherd Life and Humility 3:18 Franciscan Poverty and Service 4:04 Mortification and Spiritual Discipline 4:19 Devotion to the Blessed Virgin Mary 4:36 Miraculous Eucharistic Devotion 4:50 Defending the Real Presence 5:13 Ecstasies and Heavenly Wisdom 5:29 Death of St. Paschal Baylon 5:52 Beatification and Canonization 6:07 Meditation on Eternal Glory 6:38 Prayer for Perseverance 7:24 “Behold I Come Quickly” 7:48 Final Prayer to St. Paschal Baylon https://sensusfidelium.com/the-liturgical-year-dom-prosper-gueranger/may/may-17-pashcal-baylon-confessor/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 Support Catholic Businesses here - https://sensusfidelium.com/catholic-businesses/ Sensus Fidelium Press - https://sensusfideliumpress.com/ Sensus Fidelium Apps - https://sensusfidelium.tv/ Support Sensus Fidelium - https://sensusfidelium.com/donate-support/ 🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴🔴 🙏🏻PLEASE HELP OUR CHANNEL GROW 🙏🏻 ▶️ 1.
