How Patrick Henry Omlor's Work  Influenced Fr. Wathen
 On November 7, 2006, Fr. James Wathen, an independent traditional Catholic priest, died of kidney failure as a consequence of the lymphatic cancer that he had been battling for the last several years. The previous day he had celebrated his 74th birthday.

Fr. Wathen never performed the Novus Ordo service. After reading P.H. Omlor's 1968 blockbuster, Questioning the Validity of the Masses Using the New, All-English Canon, which demonstrated the invalidity of the Novus Ordo service, Fr. Wathen discerned that the Novus Ordo service was not only a total departure from the Catholic Faith, but that to attend the Novus Ordo was in total defiance of the First Commandment of God. As a result of his discernment, he wrote in 1971 one of the seminal works of the Traditional Catholic Movement, entitled The Great Sacrilege, which supported Omlor's work in demonstrating the invalidity of the New Order service.

When asked why so many who were once Catholics had failed to grasp this concept, Fr. Wathen used always to reply. "Because the people do not realize how evil is the Novus Ordo." Fr. Wathen was of the firm belief that the Novus Ordo service is the fulfillment of Daniel's prophecy about the "abomination of desolation": "When therefore you shall see the abomination of desolation, which was spoken of by Daniel the prophet, standing in the holy place: he that readeth let him understand" (St. Matthew 24:15).

Only in eternity will any of us fully realize the impact Patrick Henry Omlor had on Holy Mother Church. He was to all of us that truly knew him, a father, a friend and a guide, teaching us to stand strong and firm in our Catholic Faith, ever faithful to all of Her teachings and especially to Her Sacrifice, the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. Patrick was the beacon of light that led close to 50 years of Catholics to understand what had to be done, to protect and defend the Faith we so dearly love. We have lost a dear father, friend and teacher, but our loss was heaven's gain. May he rest in peace!

This is a man of strong interest for the Church and her needs at this time. He was a tremendous help to me and my family since the late 60's. We will not know in this lifetime how much his works have influenced Catholics who were confused by the errors of our times. I have lost a good friend and will remember him always at Holy Mass.
