10:26 AM 4/28/2015 — We've all been disturbed, I'm sure, by the images of unrest and destruction in the city of Baltimore. It may effect me a bit more than you, since I was born in that city and spent a good part of my life there. It's a great city in many ways, both now and in history: it was there that a great council of bishops was held, in three different sessions, in 1852, 1866 and 1884, which, among other things, gave us the clear and concise catechism which bears the city's name, and which guided the religious education of many of us.      We celebrate today the Memorial of Saint Louis de Montfort, whose writings teach us the nature of true devotion to the Mother of God;—we display his relic in the Holy House Chapel—so, it's appropriate we ask his intercession, as well as that of our Blessed Lady, for this great city and its good people, recalling to mind the words of Saint John XXIII: “There will never be peace among men until there is first peace within each one of them” (Pacem in terris, No. 164). * In the extraordinary form of the Roman Rite, from Easter Saturday until the end of Paschaltide, the Gradual Psalm is omitted.
