Catholic modesty during the Summer
As summer is now upon us, we thought it might be well to refer our readers to some helpful good reads on proper modesty in dress. How the devil and the modern world can be tempting in our choice of dress during these warmer months! It is my hope for this post to encourage our readers to stand up to this terrible trend and be a shining witness of true Christ or Marylike modesty! The best good deed we can do for others in this regard is to provide the proper example. On that note, we have attached this excellent link on Modesty from The Fatima Center:

We also recommend this excellent short article from the SSPX below. Since the stance concerning women wearing trousers can even sometimes seem controversial to Catholics of good will, we also attach Cardinal Siri’s 1960 notification to Catholic educators concerning this matter. Besides simply covering our bodies, the temples of the Holy Ghost they must be, we ought to also dress in a manner that does not contradict our God-given nature. We do not intend for this post to sound judgemental or “fundamentalist”, but rather that it may encourage others to show good example, so that little by little, Christendom may be restored in all of its glory!
