Specific program
What should be the content of orthopraxy so you can retain living faith in the present world?
1) Keep a daily holy hour routine, which is the time for a prayer from 8:00 to 9:00pm.
2) Commit to one hour of a prayer guard and get involved in a continuous prayer. Do not wait for others to get organized; start to pray at the time that is convenient for you.
3) Keep seven prayer stops during the day: when getting up, at 9:00am, 12:00pm, 3:00pm, 6:00pm and 9:00pm and at the bedtime (Comp. Ps 119:164).
By practicing these three devotions, you give God a tenth of your time during the day – 2.5 hours.
4) Fatima Saturday – we can also call it a Biblical new moon. It is desirable that men spend one day a month, preferably all day on the first Saturday, as a day dedicated to repentance and prayer. There is room for God’s Word and witness of the prayer as well as of life. Similarly, fervent women should also spend one Saturday per month in communion in prayer and witnessing to each other. Here they can draw strength to carry their crosses.
5) Sanctifying Sundays
It starts on Saturday evening. The family prays together at home. The Holy Hour lasts from 8:00pm to 9:00pm and it is followed by an Easter song, which starts the Sunday celebration. They spend the first hour following the instructions in a booklet listing the specific truths regarding Christ’s resurrection.
As outlined in the booklet, the morning family prayer lasts from 5:00 to 7:00am. It targets the specific truth of the Gospel linked to the Sunday Resurrection morning.
Next, there is time for breakfast and rest. It is followed by a prayer to the Holy Spirit according to the instructions from 8:00 or 8:30am to 9:00 or 9:30am.
Then the family participates in the holy liturgy.
In case they do not have the opportunity to attend a true Catholic liturgy, they can experience the liturgy in the spirit by following it from the booklet or watching the online broadcasting of a true Catholic Mass celebrated by a priest or a bishop who did not allow himself to be included into the so-called synodal way promoting legalization of LGBTQ immoralities.
If the family watches the online liturgy at home, it is desirable after the liturgy to pray the prayer of faith according to Mk 11:23.
The families meet around 3:00pm in the afternoon. The women meet separately. If young families meet, it is necessary to make sure that there is someone who can take care of the children, or prepare a program benefiting them.
The men meet separately. The orthodox Catholic Church can expect to withdraw to catacombs; therefore it is sufficient for 3 to 5 families to meet together depending on the available space.
The second option is a meeting of several families in the presence of a true Catholic priest. In this case, it is practical to bring food and stay for the community prayer and to build a brotherly communion. The Sunday program can conclude around 3:00pm.
According to the tradition of the pre-council Church, if there was no temple in a village, the people would meet in a commuting village. They did not return home immediately after the Holy Mass but stayed until the afternoon. They brought simple food along and ate it after the Mass. They spent 2-3 hours of the free time in conversations or in a private prayer in the temple. The priest taught them catechism in the afternoon, followed by the adoration and a blessing. They returned to their homes only after the blessing.
Today, the brotherly community is a place to discuss matters of child rearing, family relationships, material and work issues and mutual encouragement. Search for and pondering about how to apply God’s Word in one’s life should not be forgotten. The essence of the following of Christ’s way does not consist only in outward self-denial, but mainly in the interior renunciation of one’s ego. And that is a gradual process. The saints call it a way of purification. They also talk about the way of illumination and way of unification. However, it is also God’s grace, not only our effort that plays a role here.
It is precisely through the prayer that we can obtain God’s grace to follow Christ. Under no circumstances shall we blend interior prayer with pagan practice of yoga or Zen Buddhism! The inner healing of our soul from various bad habits or addictions can be supported by a community where we can openly talk about this topic, and we can help each other. On the one hand we can point out the mistakes, which a person is not aware of; on the other hand, one can sensitively share experience from the spiritual fight in that area. ...
