  • I listened to Fr. Hewko's sermon of 7/6/14 and he mentioned a letter written recently by Don Thomas Aquinas (Brazil?) on SSPX relations with Rome.  Has anyone seen the English translation?  Is it on the web?  I did a search but came up with a blank.

  • Here's Part 1

    BULLETIN OF THE MONASTERY OF SANTA CRUZ N ° 50, JUNE 2014 -. PART 1





    BULLETIN OF THE HOLY CROSS




    JUNE 2014-N ° 50




    Dear friends and supporters,




    In this dramatic life of the Church, where the crisis time, extending, completely unexpected aspects takes time, we must, more than ever, to carry the good fight of the Catholic faith with courage and valor.

    Who would have thought that one day the Benedictines, Dominicans and Capuchins Tradition had delayed their candidates for ordination or be threatened for having the same behavior that Archbishop Lefebvre advised and followed? Who would have thought that one of the four bishops consecrated by Archbishop Lefebvre would be expelled from the Priestly Fraternity of St. Pius X, with its position in the current crisis remains more faithful to the teaching practices and policies that Menzingen Archbishop Lefebvre? Who would have believed that ancient priests and Faure, Pivert, Merode parents like many others, would be a day out of the fraternity to remain loyal to the guidance of Archbishop Lefebvre? Who would have believed that not only priests but also lay among the combatants of the first hour, they would be treated in the same manner for the same reasons?

    All this is to sink into anxiety and paralyze the action to be taken to continue the work of Catholic restoration.

    But do not succuмb to this temptation. We must return from combat as Archbishop Lefebvre, always full of encouragement in the midst of the worst difficulties. Imitate those who have gone before us, even if we are not many, remember the vision with which the prophet Elisha was benefited, he who had prayed to the Lord to show your server that those who were with him were stronger and more numerous than those who were against him:

    "And the Lord opened the eyes of his server and he saw, and behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha" (IV Kings VI, 16).

    It will be the same for us, if we remain faithful to the teaching and directives that through which the gates of Hell have not prevailed.




    Father Prior




    DOCTRINE



    An anonymous recension accredited Menzingen reproaches the book by Father Pivert "Our Relations With Rome" unduly focus the fight of Archbishop Lefebvre on the issue of Christ the King.

    But it was the same Archbishop Lefebvre stated that, as we see in this passage:

    "Here is what our opposition is the reason why there is no possibility of understanding. And the question is not so much of the Mass, because the Mass is just one consequence of the fact that he wanted to get closer to Protestantism and thus transforming worship, sacraments, catechism, etc ...

    The real fundamental opposition is the Reign of Our Lord Jesus Christ. Illum Opportet Regnare, St. Paul tells us, Our Lord came to reign. They say no, and we say yes, with all the potatoes. "

    (Archbishop Marcel Lefebvre, "The Church Infiltrated by Modernism" Fideliter Editions - 1993 - page 70.).

    Have you changed Menzingen position? We want to preserve the doctrine and policies that Archbishop Lefebvre left us because he is the faithful echo of Tradition.

    As they say, "Be dethroned." Everything is there. The title alone shows us the place of Christ the King in battle of Archbishop Lefebvre.


    You have to say more than that. Christ the King was not only the center of the difficulties between liberal Archbishop Lefebvre and Rome. Cristo Rey is the center of the drama of modern times. Why was guillotined Louis XVI? Why Vendée was devastated, occupied the Papal States, García Moreno killed, crushed Cristero fifteen thousand priests, monks and nuns martyred in Spain and religious freedom proclaimed in the Vatican at the request of the Jєωιѕн organization B'nai B 'rith? Finally, why Our Lady asked for the consecration of Russia to her Immaculate Heart but that her divine Son to reign over the whole world? "I do not want Him to reign over us" cry the wicked. We, on the contrary, say: "Thy kingdom come." This is the center of fighter Archbishop Lefebvre and the whole Church which Archbishop Lefebvre was the most worthy, faithful and devoted son.

    Continued ...

  • Here's Part 2


    BULLETIN OF THE MONASTERY OF SANTA CRUZ -. PART 2




    Two Churches?




    Some minimize the current crisis trying to blur the distinction between official Catholic Church and church. Of course, Our Lord founded one Church, but it is now occupied by his enemies. Listen again to Archbishop Lefebvre quoting Leo XIII and St. Pius X in his book "Le dethroned". These quotes help us better realize this dark reality that is the Anti-church that was installed in the Catholic Church. It is a mystery, the mystery of iniquity.

    "Behold crafty enemies have filled with bitterness the Church, the Spouse of the Immaculate Lamb, have given to drink absinthe, have laid impious hands on everything in her desirable. Where were established headquarters of blessed Peter and the Chair of Truth, as a light to the nations, they have erected the throne of domination from his wickedness; so that, once hit the pastor, they can scatter the flock. "



    (Small exorcism of Leo XIII by Archbishop Lefebvre said She dethroned Fideliter-Editions - 1987 -. P 151)




    Quoting St. Pius X, Archbishop Lefebvre recalls the memorable passages Pascendi:

    "... Hidden, and this is precisely the subject of very great anxiety and distress within yourself and within the heart of the Church. Enemies, the truth, the more harmful, as they are less reported. "

    ".... Today the danger is almost in the bowels of the Church and in their own veins; and damage from such enemies is much more inevitable as more fully known to the Church. Add that have applied the ax not to the branches nor weak shoots, but to the very root; that is, to the faith and its deepest fibers. "

    (St. Pius X, Pascendi, quoted by Archbishop Lefebvre - Le dethroned, et págs.153 154).




    The "canonization" of John XXIII and John Paul II confirms what we have said. The enemy is on the square. Archbishop Lefebvre denounced him and were preserved. Another spirit encourages some Tradition. This one is not the spirit of Archbishop Lefebvre. That is why we reject it.



    PIUS IX AND CATHOLIC Liberalism




    It is always beneficial to have this in the spirit of the Popes warnings about the danger of liberalism that haunts us at all times. It is not enough to be in the tradition to be exempt from the danger of agreeing with this liberalism.




    Listen to this holy and great pontiff speaking French pilgrims from the Diocese of Nevers in 1871:




    "Dear children, my words should tell you what I have in my heart. What afije your country and prevents deserve the blessings of God, is this mixture of principles.
    I speak, and not remain silent; I fear not those miserable of the Paris Commune, true demons of Hell who walk the earth. No, not that; what I fear is this disgraceful policy, this Catholic liberalism that is the real scourge. I've said more than forty times, the repeat is because of the love I bear you. Yes, this game is ... how they say in French? We call it in Italian "altalena". Yes, exactly, that game rocker destroying religion. Definitely need to practice charity, do everything possible to attract those who have turned aside; however should not share their opinions. But I do not want to prolong my in my speech, my strength and my age will not let me. "

    (Barbier, Volume I History of Liberal Catholicism and Social Catholicism in France, p. 214)

    This game swing (or swing), is a permanent temptation to Tradition. Is not this game you lost Campos and Dom Gérard and many others? Roma want to understand regardless of Monsignor Lefebvre warnings and lessons from experience and ends up giving something to please. And so, it comes into play rocker destroying religion.




    Archbishop Lefebvre and Bishop de Castro Mayer did not go into this game. Let's not get us either.




    Never should abandon the principles, and among the principles are the condemnations made by the Popes, dooms falling on Vatican II, Vatican II the heist, as Archbishop Lefebvre said.




    Do not doubt this. Hold fast what you have received and transmitámoslo younger. Tradidi quod et accepi. The doctrine, but not just doctrine. Also the experience of St. Pius X and Archbishop Lefebvre who understood the game of the enemy. Preserve the fruits of this experience and apply it to the current situation they are the same false principles underlying those in command in Rome. Latest "canonization" prove it. It is a charity warn our neighbor not to fall into the lion's den. The Society of St. Pius X do not end up putting these agreements, with hands and feet tied, in the hands of the enemies of the universal reign of Our Lord Jesus Christ. The Fraternity honors those who, by their reaction, the preserved of a fall, fall unfortunately still lurks. Even if you do not sign the agreements themselves, the Fraternity of St. Pius X behaves as if she had already signed. She is playing into the enemy to punish their children more devoted and more faithful in the fight of faith. How long will act like that? How long Williamson will be dishonored by the Society of St. Pius X, he, probably saved Monsignor Fellay an agreement in 2012 to write the letter of the three bishops of the Fraternity to the top of the Fraternity?




    Pray for the members of the Society of St. Pius X and for us too. Who is standing be careful not to fall.
