Living and Sharing the Gospel Life through the Gifts of Faith that Our Lady has Provided Us...

Who We Are

Our Lady’s Promise is the personal Apostolate of a Third Degree Knight of Columbus from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania who is working towards permanent Profession in the Secular Franciscan Order.

The works and mission of this Apostolate center on the concept that the world is in urgent need of discovering Jesus Christ and in being one with His Church. It is within Christ’s Catholic Church (the pillar and foundation of truth) that YOU can come to the fullness of a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.

YOU, as a visitor to this site, can be a powerful instrument in communicating this life transforming message through Our Lady’s gifts of the Scapular and the Holy Rosary.

Our Mission

Our Lady’s Promise Apostolate strives to fulfill the following threefold mission:

1. To encourage all Catholic’s to make Our Lady’s promise of the Holy Rosary and Scapular an essential part of their daily lives;

2. To evangelize the Catholic faith in the traditions of Saint Francis and Saint Clare; and,

3. To proclaim the importance of “Living the Gospel Life” through the medium of the Internet.

Our Pledge

OurApostolate has pledged our uncompromising loyalty and fidelity to the Catholic Church and to its only authentic teaching authority - the successor of Peter, the Vicar of Christ, the Pope, and to those Bishops who are loyal and in union with him.

Our Prayer

We pray, that through the guidance and inspiration of Our Lady, the Holy Spirit, Saint Francis and Saint Clare, that all Catholics learn more about their faith and in turn use that knowledge to make Evangelization, the Scapular and the Holy Rosary a natural and active part of their life.

"Perform the work of an evangelist" - 2 Tim 4:5

"Preach the Gospel always- and, if necessary, use words." - St. Francis of Assisi

Fr. John A. Hardon, SJ - Archive and Guild

The Website of the Fr. Hardon Archive and Guild

The official website of the Fr. John A. Hardon, SJ Archive and Guild. This website was built off a plain-vanilla HTML website in the course of a weekend with Drupal 7 (beta 3).

The website uses Drupal's core theme, Bartik, with a bunch of minor CSS tweaks, and uses the DHTML Menu module to make a more dynamic and beautiful site menu.

The Hardon Archive is dedicated to promoting the sainthood cause of Fr. John Anthony Hardon, SJ, a Jesuit priest who wrote extensively and was involved in the creation of the Catechism of the Catholic Church.

Cathedral of St. Matthew the Apostle

Cathedral of St. Matthew the Apostle - Website Screenshot

This website looks to be a great example for other Catholic parishes to follow - the website uses Drupal, and a highly customized theme. Everything is pretty easy to read, and the website is also very accessible.

On top of that, the design is great!

“The naked public square is the result of political doctrine and practice that would exclude religion and religiously grounded values from the conduct of public business."
- Richard John Neuhaus

We are certainly living in a time and place where the “naked public square” has become the new norm. The unfortunate reality, however, is that any public debate where faith values are shelved is not true debate. It is actually censorship at its worst.

At CatholicMaine, we do not claim to speak for the Church. The Church speaks for itself. We only hope to represent the teachings of the Church in an honest and forthright manner, and attempt to analyze the world in which we live through the lens of our Catholic faith. We do this without apologies to a secular society that has grown increasingly hostile to religious expression in the public square.

CatholicMaine scours the Internet and other sources for news and opinion that we find relevant to Maine Catholics. We encourage our readers to send us suggestions, and we welcome compelling contributions from willing writers. If you are interested in becoming a contributor, please send us an email.

Why Mission Country?

According to a 2009 study conducted by the Pew Research Center, 58 percent of Mainers surveyed claimed that religion was not very important in their lives. Less than 1 in 4 attend church services weekly, and only 2 in 5 pray daily. For many in Maine, faith has become at best a private affair, one that is exercised only within the confines of one's home or place of worship. Maine is as it once was: mission country.
