John-Henry Weston Interview: : “Pope Leo XIV Is a Heretic” – Silence of the Shepherds Invites Damnation
2026/09/27
Traditional Franciscan priest Fr. Mary-Isaac Relyea joins John-Henry Westen to address what he describes as a crisis of silence within the Catholic hierarchy. Drawing on St. John Eudes and St. Gregory the Great, Relyea argues that priests and bishops have a grave obligation to defend Catholic doctrine and warn souls against sin. He sharply criticizes Pope Leo XIV and other prelates whom he believes have failed in that responsibility, a failure that, he warns, invites damnation.
The discussion addresses reception of Holy Communion, homosexuality, modernism, Vatican II, and the SSPX. Relyea argues that Catholics must remain faithful to what they understand as perennial Catholic teaching even amid opposition from Church authorities or their own families. The silence of the shepherds is not neutral; it is complicity.
Relyea turns to the spiritual practices Catholics need to persevere: the Rosary, the sacraments, spiritual Communion, mental prayer, penance, fasting, and studying the lives of the saints. Mental prayer is an intimate conversation with God. Intellectual knowledge of the faith is not enough—Catholics must live it through prayer and heroic virtue.
On the SSPX controversy, Relyea rejects warnings that Catholics associated with the Society are endangering their salvation. He defends resistance to commands he considers contrary to the faith and urges Catholics not to succumb to fear of persecution or condemnation. The silence must be broken. The faith must be defended. And the time to act is now.
Soldiers of the Immaculate with Fr. Isaac #064: Our Conquest is by The Cross
2026/09/15
In this episode Father discusses the mystery and necessity of the Cross, emphasizing that Christ’s disciples must renounce themselves, accept the crosses God permits, and follow Him to Calvary; the Cross is presented as the means of salvation, a source of grace, a weapon against spiritual enemies, and the path to conformity with Christ. The episode calls listeners to stop fleeing from suffering, embrace their crosses with patience and love, cultivate humility, prayer, mental prayer, and dependence upon divine grace, and seek the help of the Blessed Virgin Mary, particularly through the Seven Sorrows devotion and its associated promises. Let us learn the wisdom of the Cross, ask for the grace to carry it faithfully, unite our sufferings to Christ, and persevere in prayer and penance so that we may remain faithful and attain heaven.
The Promises made to those who have devotion to Our Lady of Sorrows:
I will grant peace to their families.
They will be enlightened about the divine Mysteries.
I will console them in their pains and will accompany them in their work.
I will give them as much as they ask for as long as it does not oppose the adorable will of my divine Son or the sanctification of their souls.
I will defend them in their spiritual battles with the infernal enemy and I will protect them at every instant of their lives.
I will visibly help them at the moment of their death — they will see the face of their mother.
I have obtained this grace from my divine Son: that those who propagate this devotion to my tears and sorrows will be taken directly from this earthly life to eternal happiness, since all their sins will be forgiven and my Son will be their eternal consolation and joy.
The Seven Sorrows of Our Lady:
The Prophecy of Simeon.
Flight into Egypt.
The loss of the child Jesus in the temple.
Mary meets Jesus on the way to Calvary.
Mary stands at the foot of the Cross.
Our Lady received the body of Jesus from the Cross.
Mary places the body of Jesus in the tomb.

Soldiers of the Immaculate with Fr. Isaac #063: The Cowardice of Catholics Courts Chastisement
2026/08/27
In this episode Father discusses the crisis in the Church following the Second Vatican Council, focusing especially on the liturgical reform, the loss of the sacrificial character and reverence of the Mass, the failure of Church leaders to defend Catholic truth, and the growing confusion and apostasy within the Church. We must recognize the seriousness of the crisis, study the Faith and the writings of the Saints, pray and do penance, make frequent spiritual Communions, defend Christ and His Church, instruct those who are ignorant, and remain faithful even amid persecution and suffering. Let us reject cowardice and spiritual complacency, renew our consecration to the Blessed Mother, pray fervently for the consecration of Russia, and strive to remain in a state of grace so that we may persevere in the Faith and be ready to meet Our Lord.

Our Lady: The Way Through the Crisis
2026/08/22
In this episode Father discusses the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, emphasizing her role as the Immaculate Mother, Mediatrix of All Graces, and model of total conformity to God’s will, particularly through her Fiat and participation in Christ’s redemption. Devotion to Our Lady is connected to the spiritual dangers of the present age and Catholics must detach themselves from worldly possessions, technology, fear, sin, and personal opinions; cultivate mental prayer; practice penance and the sacraments; discern and embrace their vocations; and prepare seriously for death and judgment. Let us consecrate ourselves and our families to Our Lady, imitate her virtues, persevere amid the crisis in the Church, pray and sacrifice for the salvation of others, and strive for sanctity rather than merely hoping to avoid damnation.

Open Your Ears and Speak the Truth
2026/08/11
In this sermon Father discusses the proper use of the tongue, emphasizing that sinful speech—including calumny, insults, immodesty, gossip, and verbal abuse—can seriously damage other people and incur responsibility before God. Christians have a duty not only to avoid sinful speech but to speak up in defense of the Catholic faith and Truth, particularly when confronted with error, while doing so with charity and a willingness to instruct those who are sincerely mistaken. We must all remain spiritually vigilant, pray for those who have been led astray, praise God with our speech, defend the Church and the innocent, and never separate Charity from Truth.

2026/07/22

Soldiers of the Immaculate with Fr. Isaac #061: Vatican 2 is the New Golden Calf
2026/07/06
In this episode Father recaps the consecration of the four new bishops by the SSPX, the DDF's document in response to it, the objective fact that there is a grave crisis in the Church, and how even Church law nullifies penalties and censures when actions are motivated by a state of necessity or emergency circumstances. The storm in the Church is REAL, and staying close to the True Mass and our Mother in Heaven will be our surest guarantee of safety.

Soldiers of the Immaculate with Fr. Isaac #060: They Have Not Known the Father Nor Me
2026/06/25
In this episode Father briefly discusses Saint John the Baptist and how the world sorely needs someone with his voice crying out in the wilderness of sin to make straight the ways of the Lord.

Soldiers of the Immaculate with Fr. Isaac #059: Study the Faith, Not Just the Catechism!
2026/06/09
In this episode Father discusses the continuing crisis in the Catholic Church, criticizing recent actions and statements associated with Pope Leo 14th, Vatican officials, and various bishops as departures from traditional Catholic doctrine and governance. Catholics should remain steadfast during the present confusion by relying on Sacred Scripture, Sacred Tradition, the teachings of the Church Fathers, and especially the principles articulated by St. Vincent of Lérins for discerning truth from error. We must remain steadfast in prayer, study, devotion to the Rosary, perseverance through coming trials, and confidence in the eventual Triumph of the Immaculate Heart of Mary!

Soldiers of the Immaculate with Fr. Isaac #057: The Queen of Heaven Crushes the Dancing Queen
2026/05/07
In this episode Father discusses recent developments in Rome regarding homosexuality, synodality, ecumenism, interreligious dialogue, and the current direction of the Vatican which continue to represent a departure from traditional Catholic teaching. In contradiction to the perennial teachings of the Catholic Church, figures such as Father James Martin and Pope Leo 14th continue to promote doctrinal ambiguity and moral compromise. We need to double-down, yet again, with our devotions to Our Lady: she will be our most sure and reliable help to make it through the spiritual chastisement in which we’re living (and the physical chastisement that is coming!).

2026/04/25
In this sermon Father teaches us how to make a truly fruitful confession, emphasizing that the sacrament of penance is a necessary means of salvation after mortal sin. He explains in detail the required elements of a valid confession—contrition, confession, and satisfaction—while warning against modern errors, laxity, and misuse of the Sacrament.

The Church Militant: Standing Firm in the Final Battle
2026/03/29
In this Lenten Mission sermon Father discusses the meaning of Holy Week through the lens of spiritual warfare, emphasizing the necessity of fidelity to Christ and His Church as the sole path to salvation.
