    • It is on twitter as well, based on the same link reported above.

    @TradCatKnight and also @tonylarosa9

    Can anyone confirm for sure? I am praying just in case. This is devastating. May the Blesssed Mother reward her most faithful son.

    • If he indeed died it is a shame he did not live to see the consecration of Russia he worked so hard for. I guess he will see it from heaven (I hope, RIP).

    • From CFN:


    Father Nicholas Gruner, RIP

    April 29: It is my sad duty to announce the sudden death of Father Nicholas Gruner
    He died suddenly late today of a heart attack while working at his Fatima Center office.
    At the moment, I do not know more than this. Please re-visit our page for updates.
    And please remember Father Gruner in your prayers, a good friend and a true Catholic Crusader.
    - John Vennari



    O God, Thou didst raise Thy servant Father Nicholas Gruner to the sacred priesthood of Jesus Christ, according to the Order of Melchisedech, giving him the sublime power to offer the Eternal Sacrifice, to bring the Body and Blood of Thy Son Jesus Christ down upon the altar, and to absolve the sins of men in Thine own Holy Name. We beseech Thee to reward his faithfulness and to forget his faults, admitting him speedily into Thy Holy Presence, there to enjoy forever the recompense of his labors. This we ask through Jesus Christ Thy Son, our Lord. Amen.

    We conclude logically that religion can give an efficacious and truly realistic answer to the great modern problems only if it is a religion that is profoundly lived, not simply a superficial and cheap religion made up of some vocal prayers and some ceremonies...

    • It's always disturbing when God permits an important tool to be taken away -- was Fr. Gruner spared the horror of an imminent Chastisement, as part of his reward?

    Has God said something like:
    "This good and faithful servant has earned his rest and his reward. BUT We won't be needing him on earth anymore..."

    What does God know that we don't?



    I hope Fr. Gruner receives a great reward in heaven for all his tireless labors to have Our Lady's wishes heeded.

    Don't forget for a moment: God looks at our efforts, not our success.

    "This principle is most certain: The non-Christian cannot in any way be Pope. The reason for this is that he cannot be head of what he is not a member. Now, he who is not a Christian is not a member of the Church, and a manifest heretic is not a Christian, as is clearly taught by St. Cyprian, St. Athanasius, St. Augustine, St. Jerome, and others. Therefore, the manifest heretic cannot be Pope." -- St. Robert Bellarmine

    My first thought and shortly after my husband mentioned the "imminent Chastisement" as well.  :pray:
