The Athanasian Creed is a long profession of faith dating back to the 4th or 5th century. Especially explained in this profession are the Trinity and the Incarnation. It has been attributed to St. Athanasius, a staunch defender of the true Faith, but it is now thought that St. Athanasius is not the author, although the creed reflects his influence. This creed may have been written or revised by St. Ambrose.
We invite you to read and pray an English translation of this creed here on our website.
With the day consecration to Mary now here, Br. Julian gives his final remarks in order to illuminate the gift you’ve given of yourself, and the gift you’ve received, in this special act of consecration to Mary.
Our Lord calls the faithful to renounce the spirit of the world. We are called to seek after Our Lord without reserve and without seeking the applause or praise of others. Br. Julian discusses turning away from the spirit of the world and towards Our Lord.
Obedience is a virtue by which a person promptly carries out the command of his superior. This virtue will become more perfect as the person is more prompt to do the will of the superior even before the express command is given. May our obedience be an opportunity to glorify God following Jesus and Mary in their obedience to do the will of the Eternal Father.
Jesus devoted Himself entirely to Mary, why should we not do the same? Br. Julian explains how devotion and consecration to Mary strengthens the gift of our baptism.
Jesus calls us to love our neighbor and to not judge the state of their eternal soul. In this video, Br. Julian pinpoints how to take the narrow way of love and choosing God over worldliness.
The short and narrow way of the Christian path is difficult, but not when we bring ourselves to Mary. Br. Julian teaches how Jesus made His beloved Mother the surest, and simplest path to Heaven.
