Alma Del Core;
"Faithfulness in love defeats treachery."
A haven for the curious, the seeking, and the devoted.
From Betrayal to Blessing: A Journey of Faith and Devotion.
In the dawn of Christianity, there was no label to claim, only followers of Jesus, united as one. The term "Catholic" embraced all, meaning "universal" and "all-encompassing". The original church of Jesus, founded by Peter, stood as a beacon of unity. Within its sacred traditions, seven sacraments shone bright.
The term "Catholic" whispers secrets of a timeless and universal love, embracing all who seek solace in its ancient embrace. This mystical word, born from the Greek "katholikos," carries the essence of unity and inclusivity, transcending borders and boundaries.
The Catholic faith is a masterful symphony of love, played on the strings of the human heart.

†🕊️Today is the feast day of Saint Josephine Bakhita, my patron saint. Saint Josephine is the patron saint of those in captivity because her entire life is a journey from brutal enslavement to interior freedom—and then to compassionate solidarity with others who suffer.
Born around 1869 in Darfur (Sudan), Bakhita was kidnapped as a child and sold multiple times into slavery.
She endured physical abuse, branding, forced labor, and psychological terror—including being so traumatized she forgot her birth name and was called “Bakhita” (“fortunate”), a bitter irony.
She experienced freedom that couldn’t be taken away
Eventually brought to Italy, she encountered Christianity—not as coercion, but as dignity.
When former enslavers tried to reclaim her, Italian courts ruled she had never legally been a slave, since slavery was illegal in Italy.
For the first time, she chose for herself—embracing faith and religious life with the Canossian Sisters.
She transformed trauma into mercy
What makes her patronage extraordinary is that she forgave her captors—not denying the evil, but refusing to let it define her.
She spent decades serving quietly, radiating gentleness, joy, and empathy—especially toward the poor and wounded.
Why the Church names her patron of those in captivity
She represents people who are:
Physically enslaved or trafficked
Wrongfully imprisoned
Abused, controlled, or coerced
Psychologically or spiritually captive (trauma, fear, shame, dehumanization)
Her life says: captivity does not get the final word.
Her deeper message
Saint Josephine Bakhita shows that:
Freedom begins before circumstances change
Human dignity survives even when it’s denied
God is present inside captivity, not just after escape
That’s why she’s invoked today in prayers against human trafficking, modern slavery, abuse, and unjust detention—and why her feast day (February 8) is also the International Day of Prayer and Awareness Against Human Trafficking. #Catholic #FeastDay
