Not to harp on once again about the inadequacies.of the conciliar/synodal church but I can't help call out its aversion to inspiring in its members the all-important and indispensable theological virtue of charity., love of God first, which alone can render all our other efforts pleasing to Him.

Their reformed sacraments seem designed to quench this virtue or make it more difficult to aquire when the faithful are encouraged to sacraligious practices in regards to due reverence to God and encouraging over-familuarity to all things holy, especially the novus order mass. This became the overriding reason for many (myself included) for their refusal to attend even whilst there was no alternative True Mass. Loss of faith begets cold-hesrtednes and vice versa, so important is the lex credendi lex orendi.

Sacrifice beads are an invaluable tool to help cultivate sanctity. They can be used in many different was. They are especially helpful for making the twice daily Particular Examen. You can keep track of how often you fall into your predominant fault, exercise a particular virtue, do an act of charity, etc. They help us see the truth about the state of our souls.

Interesting, Father. Do you recommend a supplier?

I don’t know of any offhand. I can’t recall where I got mine from. There are directions for making them to be found online and I believe you can also purchase kits with everything needed to make them.

You didn't mention this in the article but the Sister in the video clip mentions Dominic which I believe refers to St. Dominic Savio. I originally thought she was talking about St. Therese when I watched it.

I'll listen again more carefully.
