The Catholic Wire
What's going on in the Catholic Church? What am I to do to be a good Christian? The Catholic Wire is created as a network, with the purpose of hosting all the resources necessary for Christians in our day and age, to come to the knowledge of the truth, in doctrine, morals, and anything that pertains to our eternal salvation and the good of the Church and Christendom. We are aiming to reach, not only those who are already in the Faith, but also those who might be in the search for it, and even those who are morally or doctrinally lost. Our desire is to provide the materials necessary for each particular situation, the information that befits different souls, with different capacities, in order to lead them all, little by little, by the same path, the one set by Our Blessed Lord. The Goal is great, and we do not intend to reach it with our own strength. We seek not for the completion of it, but our success consists in working as hard as we can, for the salvation of souls, and the greater Glory and Love of God.

What is the role of the older women in the Church? Fr. Benedict Hughes, CMRI, explains and elaborates on this Bible instruction in this episode of The Christian Mother.
In Part 1, we discuss what was happening in the Church when St. Paul gave this instruction to Titus, the comparison to our times and the implications of the five points given specifically to the older women.
Then Father talks about the feminization of the Church since Vatican II and recommends an article he wrote for The Reign of Mary called "The Feminization of the Conciliar Church". (See it Here)
Citing several supporting Scriptures, Father shows how God decreed that women should be subject to their husbands. We discuss the wonderful memorial letter (see it here) he wrote about his mom, and he shares the inspiring story of his grandparents' establishing and keeping a Catholic home.
Next, Father explains the teaching in Proverbs 31 and highlights the most important parts and how his mother lived these teachings.
In Part II, we discuss solutions with a look back at traditions and organizations that were in place prior to Vatican II, when the older generation teaching and guiding the youth was the norm. Father discusses the important roles that retreats, Altar and Rosary Society, Confraternity of Christian Mothers, etc., played in promoting Godly women. He explains how today the opportunity of meeting with other Catholic women and building relationships is critically important. Father closes with encouragement for mothers.

We speak of how our souls will never be fully satisfied on this earth, for God alone can satisfy the inner faculties of our spirit. And we compare this desire of God to the desire of the deer, running for water, according to Psalm 41.
