John the Baptist, friend of the bridegroom

Last updated on: March 25, 2016 at 8:01 pm   By Father Pablo Migone

[written for The Southern Cross, newspaper of the Diocese of Savannah] The parish of our magnificent Cathedral of Saint John the Baptist in Savannah has been under the patronage of this great saint since the late 18th century.  When the Baptist roamed Judea he wore clothes made of camel’s hair with a leather belt, ate locusts and wild honey while spending his time by the river preaching repentance and baptizing those willing.  His description does not sound very appealing, yet Jesus... Read more

San Juan Bautista, amigo del esposo

Last updated on: March 25, 2016 at 8:02 pm   By Father Pablo Migone

La parroquia de nuestra magnifica Catedral de San Juan Bautista en Savannah ha estado bajo el patronato de este gran santo desde fines del siglo XVIII.  Cuando San Juan caminó en región de Judea, vestía pelo de camello con un cinturón de cuero y comía insectos y miel silvestre.  Predicaba en el desierto bautizando en el rio Jordán a quienes lo deseaban.  Su descripción no suena muy atractiva, sin embargo, Jesús dijo de él, “entre los hijos de mujer no... Read more

An amazing conversion story

Last updated on: June 20, 2012 at 5:13 pm   By Father Pablo Migone

I recently came across the conversion of a young man from a Southern Baptist seminarian to a Catholic.  His story is well worth giving a few minutes to read. His story reminded me of Cardinal Newman’s quote, “To be deep in history, is to cease to be Protestant.” Below is an excerpt to wet your appetite, but click on the link below to read the whole story. “At some point during my employment I had stumbled onto a Christianity Today... Read more

Bishop Hartmayer on religious freedom: Invites for Mass at Forysth Park July 1st

Last updated on: June 16, 2012 at 3:44 pm   By Father Pablo Migone

My dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, Earlier this year, I wrote you to express my deep concerns about a grave moral matter – one that I perceive to be a direct threat to our constitutional freedom to exercise our religion and religious conscience without governmental interference. On February 15, 2012, the United States government enacted a Federal Mandate requiring Catholic organizations to provide access to abortion inducing drugs, sterilization services and contraceptives for all employees, in direct contravention of... Read more

Saint Anthony of Padua

Saint Anthony of Padua, or as the Portuguese accurately call him, Saint Anthony of Lisbon, was born in Lisbon Portugal in 1195 and died on June 13th, 1231 in Padova (Padua), Italy. He is well known today as the patron of lost things, thousands invoking his prayers and assistance when something goes missing, yet for his contemporaries, he was known for his greatly gifted preaching.

Origen del Corpus Christi

Last updated on: March 25, 2016 at 8:09 pm   By Father Pablo Migone

A mediados del siglo XIII, un sacerdote llamado Pedro de Praga tenía muchas dudas sobre su fe, en particular sobre la presencia real de Cristo en la Eucaristía. Pedro hizo una peregrinación a Roma en el año 1263 para rezar ante la tumba de San Pedro pidiendo que su fe se fortalezca. Después de su estancia en Roma se sintió fortalecido en su vocación como sacerdote, e inició su viaje de regreso a Praga. En el camino se detuvo en la localidad de Bolsena... Read more

Corpus Christi: The Beginning of the Story

Last updated on: March 25, 2016 at 8:09 pm   By Father Pablo Migone

In the mid 13th century, a priest in Prague named Peter was having serious doubts about his faith, in particular about the true presence of Christ in the Eucharist.  During the summer of 1263, Peter went on pilgrimage to Rome to pray at the tomb of Saint Peter asking for his faith to be strengthened. After his time in Rome and feeling strengthened in his vocation as a priest, he began his journey back to Prague.  On the way back,... Read more

Lo que he aprendido

Last updated on: June 9, 2012 at 11:18 am   By Father Pablo Migone

La semana pasada hablé por teléfono con un amigo sacerdote quien también será transferido de parroquia por primera vez.  Después de compartir nuestro entusiasmo y nuestras angustias le dije en broma, “Supongo que vamos a aprender lo que es ser sacerdote en otro lugar por primera vez.” Al prepararme para partir de Sacred Heart en Warner Robins, he estado considerando todas mis experiencias como sacerdote recién ordenado al igual que las muchas lecciones aprendidas, en particular aquellas del sacerdocio.  Varias... Read more
