Post (http://www.cathinfo.com/catholic.php/Fast-and-Pray-to-cancel-satanic-black-mass-in-Oklahoma-City-9-21-14)
I have been informed by a reliable source that the ordinary bishop of Tulsa, Oklahoma, is requesting of all Catholics in the world to join his diocese in prayer and fasting for the intention of the CANCELLATION of a public and notorious SATANIC BLACK MASS which has been scheduled for September 21st at the CIVIC CENTER in Oklahoma City.
Bishop Slattery (a good Irish name!) is making this open request for prayers and penance, and any time that a bishop does such a thing it deserves wide distribution, for this is what will save us from the wrath of God, provided that such requests are made and that we voluntarily comply with them.
Bishop Slattery (may God bless him) asks that from August 6th (today) through August 14th (the vigil of the Assumption), that we would ABSTAIN from all flesh meat in a spirit of penance, that we pray our daily Rosary with this added intention, and that BEFORE EACH DECADE, we would please add the words:
"MAY CHRIST OUR LORD DELIVER US FROM EVIL
AND DEFEND US AGAINST THIS PRESENT DANGER"
At the end of our Rosary, he is asking that we be sure to pray the St. Michael prayer, which is something that most of us already do anyway:
Saint Michael, Archangel, defend us in battle. Be our defense against the wickedness and snares of the devil; may God rebuke him, we humbly pray, and do thou, O Prince of the Heavenly Host, by the power of God, thrust down into hell satan and all the other wicked spirits who prowl about the world seeking the ruin of souls. Amen.
On August 15th, the Feast of the Assumption body and soul of Our Blessed Mother into heaven, this upstanding bishop has announced that he will publicly recite the LONG VERSION of the Leonine Prayer to St. Michael. (Perhaps another member knows where that is found and can post it here?)
Correct me if I'm mistaken, but this might be the first time since before Vatican II that this Long Form Prayer of Pope Leo XIII (of happy memory) has been publicly made by a bishop anywhere in the world. It seems to me that he deserves our meet appreciation for this gesture, and for his announcing it in advance.
Someone said that an SSPX chapel somewhere has also announced this.

Now I see in the post by Laramie Hirsch that Bishop Slattery is asking for Catholics to "pray a decade every day," when I had heard it is a Rosary he was talking about. We shouldn't let this discourage us. Adding the words, "May Christ Our Lord deliver us from evil and defend us from this present danger," is a good thing to include after the announcement of the mystery name and before the Our Father.
Also keep in mind that there is no indulgence for praying a decade of the Rosary, but there are many indulgences that apply to the whole 5-decade Rosary. All of those plus a few more apply to a 15 decade Rosary. But 0 (zero) apply to just one decade (other than for the individual prayers, Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory be -- there is no indulgence for the Fatima Decade prayer, O my Jesus forgive us our sins..., nor for this "May Christ Our Lord..."). The local bishop has no power to grant indulgences; that has to come from the Pope, and there have been no such regular indulgences granted since Pope Pius XII.

This exorcism should scare the hell out of everyone!!!!!
If only.
Trouble is, just as all over the world before the Flood of Noah, and just as at Sodom and Gomorrah before fire and brimstone hailed down upon them, the people were not scared to hell at all. They were diggin' it. They were diggin' their own hole in hell, that is.
Don't be surprised if what Daniels said comes to pass:
"Their [sic] are some who are quite tickled at all of this."
