The evidence shows that Marian lied.

Madness is an understatement, this is downright an anti-catholic sect!

Yes. Weird and anti-Catholic pretending to be Catholic.

Fr. Wiest is in the hospital with covid and not doing well.  Please pray for him.

Also pray for Fr. Perez who also tested positive for Covid.
And pray for Fr. Starbuck who now has to do the work of all three priests.

So Marian Horvat of the TIA cult and John Horvat of the TFP cult are siblings.
What happened to the poster who said otherwise?
Crickets?

see reply #148: "wow.  she came across so honest..."

How much more proof will some people need to realize that Mr. Wiest is NOT a priest & shouldn't be called Fr.?  or "Fr." 

What has been posted so far is certainly enough to raise serious questions about Wiest, but it is far from definitive proof.
In all the time that has been spent on this have any of you looked further into his background? His family? Contacted any of them to ask for details? A little searching on the ol' interwebs brought up several family connections to persue. It seems the least you could do if your going to keep pushing this.
As long as were at it I have to ask, do you ever ask yourself "what if I'm wrong about this"?

It's a slap in the face to true priests so stop it.

Hardly.

It looks like the pictures of Wiest with the rhubarb was in 2020.  If he were a priest then, I'm quite sure he would have been identified as such. He's definitely  being presented as a layman. Now in 2021 he's at OLHC as a priest.  And you need more proof?!  Men don't become real priests in months. It takes years. Also has anyone been able to see his credentials?  As I've said - what more proof do you need?!

Would anyone guess that this is a Priest? Nevertheless he is.



I hope that if you are ever in court the judge and/or jury have a higher standard for what constitutes proof than you do.
