The pilgrimage to the Mother of God /Lady of Fatima (Philippines)

XIV Pilgrimage of Catholic Tradition took place on Bohol Island on April 16-19th, starting from Tagbilaran, the capital of Bohol and ending in the town of Carmen. It was a three day walk of about 60 kilometers. The first stage was a 15 km long coastline, followed by much climbing up and down the many steep hills (with the renowned “chocolate hills” among others).
This year over 850 people signed up for the pilgrimage but by the final day there were more than 1000 participants.

“I can do all things in Him who strengthens me”

Blessed be Immaculate!

Dear Knights,
When we listen intently to the voice of the Church,  we hear a call from saint Paul, who constantly repeats that he “can do all things”. We also want the same, but often we find ourselves in totally different place, because the Apostle of nations was “in Him who strengthens” and we often vaunt about the company of a free will.

Blessed be Immaculate!

Dear Knights,
During Lent saint Maximilian reminds us that „Jesus unambiguously emphasized the need of atonement and Immaculate also pointed out a penance as Her wish towards Bernadette. „How we should perform penance?” this is the question of founder of Niepokalanow, who knew that everyone admit that their life is carpeted with crosses, but not in every case health and duties permit us to suffer severely”. This worshipper of Mary, when he was kneeling next to the miraculous cave, knew that „accepting these crosses is a great opportunity to practice penance. What is more, fulfilling duties and God’s will at every moment (both in actions and words) takes many sacrifices of what gives us pleasure — this is the most abundant source of atonement”. However, Saint Maximilian realized that we are humans, not angels. He proved it, when he noted „I am afraid of suffering and humiliation but I find it comforting that Jesus wanted to feel the same in the Garden of Gethsemane. Graces come exactly when we need it”.

Dear Knights of the Immaculata!

Allow me to inform you, that we just finished the annual priests’ meeting of the district of Asia in Manila. The theme of the meeting was: “towards 2017”. We all are aware that 2017 will be a crucial year of anniversaries: 500 years of Protestantism, 300 years of Freemasonry, 100 years of Communism on the one hand, 100 years of Fatima apparitions and establishment of the Militia Immaculatae on the other hand. We are fully aware, that in comparison with the gigantic armies of the enemies of our salvation we are nothing. As Saint Maximilian Kolbe often said, we are only miserable zeroes. If you put many zeroes together, the result will be always zero (00000 … = 0). But just put a ‘one’ before the zeroes, you will have a complete different result: 1 000000… The “one” is the Immaculata, we are the zeroes.

Blessed be Immaculate!
Dear Knights,

While looking for a receipe for sanctity, we often delude ourselves that it is all about great acts or severe mortifing which were practiced by those who became canonized.  The contrast between us and them with no doubts makes us feel uncomfortable and often there is a subtle discouragement that consoles the old Adam inside us: “forget it, it costs you too much”. What is more, when we go through a solid portion of family or work problems, the enemy of our salvation rubs his hands with satisfaction.
