“All the good works in the world are not equal to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass because they are the works of men; but the Mass is the work of God. Martyrdom is nothing in comparison for it is but the sacrifice of man to God; but the Mass is the sacrifice of God for man.” (St. Jean-Baptiste Marie Vianney, Cure d’Ars)


August 4 is the Memorial of St. John Mary Vianney, Priest (1786 – 1859).
