Dear Sisters and Brothers,
According to Popes and exorcists, the devil fears the Blessed Mother.
One of the surest ways of combatting the devil is by developing a close relation-
ship with the Blessed Virgin Mary. The devil hates her and runs away from those
who are close to her.
According to Italian exorcist Fr. Sante Babolin, “while I was insistently invoking
the Most Holy Virgin Mary, the devil answered me: ‘I can’t stand That One
(Mary) any more and neither can I stand you any more.'”
Furthermore, he discovered that “‘the strongest reactions’ of the devil during the
exorcism occur ‘when references are made to her apparitions.'” Therefore, Ba-
bolin frequently invokes the Virgin Mary under her titles of “Lourdes, Fatima or
Guadalupe.”
Famed exorcist Fr. Gabriele Amorth confirmed this reality in his dialogues with
the devil, where the devil said to him, “I am more afraid when you say the Ma-
donna’s name, because I am more humiliated by being beaten by a simple crea-
ture, than by Him.”
Pope Francis related similar words in a homily at St. Mary Major, “Where the Ma-
donna is at home the devil does not enter; where there is the Mother, disturbance
does not prevail, fear does not win.”

Why is the devil so afraid of the Virgin Mary, a simple girl from Nazareth?
During the Rite of Exorcism the priest will pray, “The glorious Mother of God, the
Virgin Mary, commands you; she who by her humility and from the first moment
of her Immaculate Conception crushed your proud head.”
This prayer is referring to a prophecy foretold in the book of Genesis, where God
said to the serpent, “I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between
your offspring and hers; he will strike your head, and you will strike his
heel” (Genesis 3:15). The verse can also be translated as “she will strike your
head,” and has traditionally been applied to the Blessed Virgin Mary.
Her humility was so radical that it crushes the “proud head” of Satan and is the
surest defense against him and his attacks. As the devil told Fr. Amorth, “She
makes me angry because she is the humblest of all creatures, and because I am
the proudest; because she is the purest of all creatures, and I am not; because, of
all creatures, she is the most obedient to God, and I am a rebel!”
Thus, if someone wants to defeat the work of evil in their own lives and the world,
one of the strongest responses is to fly to the Virgin Mary. St. Padre Pio agreed
with this when he said, “Some people are so foolish that they think they can go
through life without the help of the Blessed Mother. Love the Madonna and pray
the Rosary, for her Rosary is the weapon against the evils of the world today. All
graces given by God pass through the Blessed Mother.”

Pope Francis @Pontifex August 02
The Lord does not perform wonders with those who
believe themselves to be just, but with those who
know they are in need and are willing to open their
hearts to Him.
Pope Francis @Pontifex August 4
We pray for the sick who are abandoned and left
to die. A society is human if it protects life, every
life, from its beginning to its natural end, without
choosing who is worthy to live or who is not. Doc-
tors should serve life, not take it away..
Pope Francis @Pontifex August 13
Only when we experience God's forgiveness are we
truly reborn. We start again from there, from for-
giveness. It is there that we rediscover ourselves: in
confessing our sins.
Pope Francis @Pontifex August 16
Let us ask Our Lady to protect and sustain us; that we
may have a strong, joyful and merciful faith; that she
may help us to be saints, to meet her one day in Para-
dise.
Pope Francis @Pontifex August 22
May the Lord open our hearts to the needs of the
poor, the defenseless, those who knock on our door
to be recognized as a person.
Pope Francis @Pontifex August 31
In our daily relationship with Jesus, and in the
strength of His forgiveness, we rediscover our
roots.

Feast Day: September 27 Canonized: June 16, 1737 Beatified: August 13, 1729 Born in 1581 in France, Vincent de Paul became a priest at the early age of 19. He became famous for his kindness and generosity. As a young priest, Vincent was captured by Turkish pirates at sea and sold into slavery. He eventually es-caped, along with his master, whom he had converted. He came into close contact with the king and queen of France in both spiritual and diplomatic roles, but even-tually his concern for the poor of France became his full-time work. Vincent went to many places to visit the sick, the el-derly, and the poor. He spent time with them and did what he could to take care of them. But Vincent knew it would take more than what he could do on his own to really make a difference. He realized he needed
more money and more people to help all those who needed help. Vincent began to ask wealthy people to donate mon-ey that he distributed to the sick and poor of his com-munity. Vincent was so nice and charming that the wealthy didn't mind giving him money, especially for such a worthy cause. Once, Vincent asked Queen Anne of Austria for a do-nation. Anne knew of Vincent and respected him, but she didn't agree with many things he said. Vincent told Queen Anne that they should overlook their differences because helping people was more im-portant. Vincent also gathered other men and women who were willing to dedicate their lives to God and help the poor. Each day he and his followers gave soup and bread to as many as 16,000 poor persons. The men formed into the religious community of priests called the Vincentians. The women became the Daughters of Charity. Many parishes today have a St. Vincent de Paul Society which carries on Vincent's work with the poor. Because of all of his work raising money and helping the poor, Vincent is now considered the patron saint of charitable societies. He died in Paris in 1660 and was canonized by Pope Clement XII in 1737.
