This week on the SSPX podcast, we'll be sharing the parish mission from St. Vincent de Paulson, Kansas City, as it was delivered in 2020.

Today, on Holy Thursday, we'll be hearing from Father Michael Goldaddy on the topic of the carrying of the cross.

If you would like to hear more parish missions, reflections, conferences, as well as our crisis in the church series, and Questions with Father's series,

please visit SSPXpodcast.com. Now we'll turn to the Thursday evening conference from Father

Goldaddy.

Name of the Father and the Son of the Holy Ghost, Amen.

Come Holy Ghost for the hearts of thy faithful, and in kindling them the fire of thy love.

Send forth thy spirit, and they shall be created, and thou shalt renew the face of the earth.

Let us pray, O God, who disinstruct the hearts of thy faithful, by light of the Holy Ghost, grant that by the gift of the same spirit to be ever truly wise and rejoice in his consolation through the same Christ our Lord. Amen.

Hail Mary, full of grace, the Lord is with thee. Blessed art thou among women and blessed is a fruit of thy boom Jesus.

Holy Mary, Mother of God, pray for us sinners now and at the hour of our death. Amen. Our lady, mother of sorrows, pray for us. In the name of the Father and the Son of the Holy Ghost, amen.

Dear faithful, we've come to day four in our mission, and I recommended at one point in an email

that a good practice at home would be to follow up each conference with the Rosary. These conferences should give ample meat for meditation during these days of Passion Tide.

The fourth sorrowful mystery, our Lord carries this cross till Calvary.

Our considerations of the passion are drawing to the close, the high point of the passion, which is Calvary, the crucifixion upon Calvary.

And our Lord will make a triumphal march, we could say, to that place, that sacred place,

that moment of final victory.

This path to Calvary, we could consider as the 11th hour.

And the 11th hour has a special meaning for us today.

It's a kind of wonderful opportunity at the end, or a last minute success story, or a moment of relief right at the end or a last minute success story or a moment of relief right at the end

when our hopes are revived our confidence is restored and ultimately victory is

assured to us the cross is the very center of history.
