Year 2, Day 161: The Cure of the Withered Hand

The Stigmata and Modern Science

"And taking the hand of the little girl, he said to her, 'Talitha khoum,' which interpreted means, 'Little girl (I say to thee) arise.'"—Mark 5:41Jacinta Marto was a happy-go-lucky little girl who loved to play; but along with her brother Francisco and her cousin Lucia dos Santos, she experienced the monumental apparitions of Our Lady of Fatima—proving that even an illiterate shepherd girl can become a pivotal figure in world history, as well as a great saint. And indeed Jacinta did become a saint, for our times and for all.Excerpted from the letters and memoirs of Sr. Lucia dos Santos contained in Fatima in Lucia's Own Words, Blessed Jacinta Marto of Fatima describes the life of this little girl whose visions, along with her brother and cousin, radically changed the world. Jacinta was the youngest of the three shepherd children, aged seven at the time of the apparitions. She loved to dance and play, and everyone enjoyed her sweet affect. But upon experiencing the visions of Our Lady and her requests for penance, and especially after the vision of Hell, Jacinta took to heart the message of mortification and conversion. More than her brother and Lucia, she persisted in physical penances and mortifications, like giving up lunches and not drinking water, for the sake of sinners. Along with Francisco and Lucia, she suffered at the hands of the local Freemasonic authorities. After the Miracle of the Sun, many requested her intercession, and she complied willingly.Finally, in 1918, she and Francisco contracted the Spanish flu. Francisco died first, while Jacinta was taken to two hospitals (as Our Lady had told her) to suffer for souls. When she predicted she would die the next day, the hospital chaplain did not believe her, and so he did not give her the las Sacraments. But she died as predicted; in1935 she was found incorrupt. Pope Francis canonized her in 2017, a hundred years after the first apparition of Our Lady. Let your children learn the lesson of this humble saint, the Church's absolute youngest non-martyr—and learn yourself just what it means to become like a child to enter the Kingdom of God.Saint Jacinta Marto, pray for us!

After Our Lady, it is the speculative tradition of the Church that there is no saint greater than St. Joseph. After all, this supremely humble man about to whom no words are attributed in Scripture, merited to be the foster-father of God Himself in the Person of Jesus Christ. What a sublime mystery; what a noble office; what a glorious man! St. Joseph is the single greatest male to ever walk the Earth, other than Our Lord Himself. Thus, aside from Our Lord and Our Lady, there is no better recourse we can have than him on whom even they depended in the Holy Family.A Manual of Practical Devotion to St. Joseph serves as an instruction to the faithful on how to truly devote oneself to this remarkable humble and just saint. Written in 1709 in Italian and translated in the 19th century, it contains tremendous insights on the person of St. Joseph, as well as reasons for our devotion to hymn and a well of prayers, novenas, and hymns. God chose St. Joseph to represent the ideal of fatherhood in the Holy Family; let us learn from him! The advice of Holy Mother Church is to "Go to Joseph." This book shows the way.

Raising Blue-Collar Kids in a White-Collar World is a bold call to arms for parents who want to raise grounded, resilient children in an age of entitlement and ease. In a culture where elite education is often prized above common sense, and where young adults expect success without sweat, this unapologetic book offers a different vision: one rooted in grit, humility, and moral strength.With the frankness of a business owner who’s watched the workforce shift, and the heart of a parent who wants more for the next generation, Conor Gallagher challenges modern parenting norms that coddle rather than cultivate. He argues that while white-collar dreams are worthy, they mean little if our children lack the blue-collar soul—the tenacity to work hard, embrace suffering, take responsibility, and persevere with grace.This book is not about rejecting ambition or education. It’s about forming the kind of character that can stand strong in adversity, that doesn’t crumble under criticism, and that values contribution over comfort. Through engaging reflections and real-world wisdom, readers are invited to rediscover the lost art of tough love, personal responsibility, and virtue-driven parenting.If you want to raise kids who aren’t just employable—but dependable, courageous, and spiritually anchored—Raising Blue-Collar Kids in a White-Collar World is your essential guide. Grit isn’t optional. It’s the foundation for greatness.Are you ready to raise kids who can stand tall when the world leans hard? Then it’s time to get your hands dirty and raise them right.
