“A clean heart is a free heart. A free heart can love
Christ with an undivided love in chastity, convinced that
nothing and nobody will separate it from his love. Purity,
chastity, and virginity created a special beauty in Mary that
attracted God’s attention.”
? Mother Teresa |
|
When you think of chastity many think this task is
purely up to the young ladies but here we listen to the guys
who are making that promise to chastity but sometimes have the
same troubles of finding a really good girl! |

The Kitchen Madonna:
Patroness of The
Catholic View for Women
Mary was not only Jesus' Mother, but also a housewife.
Her utensils are earthly and heavenly symbols. The key
represents the safety in the house and also the way
into heaven. The kettle symbolizes nourishment for
body and soul. The broom represents cleanliness in the
home and in thoughts and deeds.
