Believe it or not, but this is the truth! Born in 1940 and attended Catholic school my entire life.
Raised in NOT the best neighborhood in Chicago, and attended a Catholic high school, with very old nuns, while my friends managed to take a bus to a more modern Catholic school with young nuns. I wondered “why me”.
These old nuns would tell us stories of the Saints, and Catholic traditions most of the time instead of teaching us “reading, writing, and arithmetic” but we did get about 10 minutes of it, or what was left of a 45 minute class after the Catholic stories.
We were told how we would be the generation to see the Mass taken away, believe it or not, these old nuns told us what to expect. They also told us, that the pope can not be a pope if he leads the laity into heresy.
So when Vatican II happened, I was a young mother, having babies and very busy but wondered what was going on with the Church. Once my eyes were opened, and I remembered what the nuns told us, everything came together like a puzzle for me. I realized we were living in the time of Anti-Christ and I became very afraid for the world. I could not wait to get out of the harlot, but didn't know where to go. THE ROSARY, I remembered the nuns saying over and over again, pray the rosary. I started to pray the daily rosary and put my brown scapular around my neck, and still God did not show me a Traditional Church for another 5 years, then I found CMRI.
