  •   Friends,

      Please take out your book "Open letter to confused Catholics" by Archbishop  Marcel Lefebvre and read page 146. Actually pages 129 to the end directly apply to us today but page 146 is particular to what we wish to express.

      There are two semi valid reasons for not making a stand. Reasons that really shouldn't exist for too long. The first being the question how. How do I go about a public resistance? Do I stand on a rock and start preaching? Of course not. This is one of our problems currently. Stand up and walk out when a priest praises Bishop Fellay's errors or his "grace of state" in a sermon? That we will do next time it happens. But is it enough? We want to fight for Our Lady. Her time of victory is very soon. Wouldn't it be great to KNOW we have fought for her?

      The second reason for not standing up is the loneliness of standing up by yourself. We are from a very large parish. This parish, this town is lethargicly (if there is such a word!) quiet. There is no talk of it. It is like a ghost town spiritually with NOBODY willing to be put in the spotlight as a whipping boy. My family and I wouldn't mind but those two things are pulling us back. That along with the fact the devil will single us out for horrible things. But with Our Lady on our side that doesn't bother as much as the first two reasons.

      We live about 5 hours from an "independent" priest. We use to travel exactly that long in our early days of being Traditional. We can do it again. There are ways around unjust censures and expulsions but if it were just us being expelled it wouldn't make as much thunder and it would wake up so few people. As Archbishop Lefebvre said "The truth does not depend on numbers and numbers do not make the Truth." The day and time will come when we finally figure out a way to make our resistance known publicly and then maybe the others will gain courage too. This is what happens when the sheep are without a shepherd.

      We MUST resist! We MUST fight for our Lady! My wife heard a sermon by a priest who refuses to fight because he needs to "obey" his superiors. In the sermon he said he is glad there was no agreement with Rome because of the new Archbishop that doesnt beleive in the virginity of Our Lady. He made it sound like this: "I am glad there was no agreement with Rome because if there was I would have to accept that the virgin Mary is not a perpetual virgin and I really believe the opposite." ..... WHERE IS COMMON SENSE? You Priests need to read "Open Letter to Confused Catholics" Pages 129-136. Page 133: "For it is a master-stroke of Satan to get Catholics to disobey the whole of Tradition in the  name of obedience." This poor priest is rather strong on a great many things but he is weak. Very weak indeed when he faces "obedience" Remember, it was this "obedience" that greatly contributed to the success of the infamous "vatican II" (soon to be wiped out by our blessed Mother) and the devil is simply replaying the same trick now. Shouldn't we know better?

      We have written much here. If you are still reading please do let  yourselves be known as we will do shortly. I told my wife perhaps we should wait a couple of months as we plan on moving next spring. She looked at me and said "What if it is too late?" What if our Lady will already have claimed the victory by then? We will  be left out in the cold. If we still get to heaven we will not be part of that great company that stood up for God and our Lady in the darkest crisis of the Church!

      The only thing we are wary of is being called in to a priest's office. We must refuse to have anything to do with modernist conversations or debates about the current situation because satan is very active with this illusion and we wouldn't want to be infected. Part of a battle is not just the offensive but also the defensive.

      Hence our thoughts we now display on the internet hoping that one day soon we will no longer have to "hide" on the internet feeling like we are accomplishing something of value. Let's all of us who wish to follow our Lady make a stand. You will find there will be no more time for internet opinions. Sure, now we use it because now we are trying to gather the "troops" together. Fight with us for God and His Mother.

      Have suggestions on how to go about eliminating the two "reasons" for not coming out? Post them! Want to fight with us? Let us know! Send a "personal" message. This website is probably being watched but thankfully prayer and sacrifice and standing up for a good cause is not reproachable. At least not in God's "eyes".

      It can still get worse. What will tomorrow's religion be if we do not resist?

      VIVA CHRISTO REY!!

  • If you don't move, could you start up an independent chapel with a group of like-minded people?

    If you do move you might face the same attitude at the new chapel.  I don't think you are describing a local problem.  It's systemic throughout the Church.

    As for being watched, count on it, including by non-Catholics.  We are not only the resistance to modernism within the Church but the NWO at large.
    For it is written: I will strike the shepherd, and the sheep of the flock shall be dispersed. Matthew 26:31

  • Our Lady stood by the Cross!  Stand up and leave and keep your Sundays Holy.  We will have to go through tribulation as Chapter 12 of Daniel states.  Do what your soul says to do.  Why do you think what others think?  Do what is right!  It takes one to encourages others?  So,may it start with You!

  • I came out of an independent chapel and when the priest died, the people split  5  different directions, one being home.  Keep the FAith, not the building and don't get close to people to think you are leaving a family.  The  point is to keep the FAith.  What did the people of Japan do, when they had no sacraments and clergy for over 300years!  Our Lady said, Rosary and penance!  They did, and when clergy did arrive, they found 65% of the Faith intact.  Wow!  It will hurt to leave.  We had to do it.  Don't be surprised, those you thought were friends, may never call on you again.  The confusion is so thick!  Take care of yourself, for now.  It is your Faith that is at stake.  When you disagree with what you hear and your stomach tells you, this is not right, go!  If you don't, you may find yourself regretting your decision to stay. Do whats your soul tells you to do.

  • Listen to your stomach?  Listen to your soul?  

    Sounds overly sentimental.  I don't expect God to whisper in my ear, but I'll aim for that and leave my stomach to matters of food and drink.  
    "Be kind; do not seek the malicious satisfaction of having discovered an additional enemy to the Church... And, above all, be scrupulously truthful. To all, friends and foes alike, give that serious attention which does not misrepresent any opinion, does not distort any statement, does not mutilate any quotation. We need not fear to serve the cause of Christ less efficiently by putting on His spirit". (Vermeersch, 1913).

     It doesn't take too much of an imagination to know at least what this person was talking about.

    Maybe not for you, but our emotions aren't a proper gauge of right and wrong, or of what we should and shouldn't do.  

    Ever see videos of clown masses and the like?  People get into it.  I'd say they feel like it's awesome.  But it ain't.  

    And look at the average joe.  Most people don't feel that there's much wrong with abortion or sodomite marriage or whatever other thing.  I think Bishop Williamson has a few things to say about feelings.  They can only do so much.  They shouldn't usually be a motivating factor in decision making.

    I would say, don't sweat it. Considering "under obedience" is one of the favorite (and crudest) weapons of the accordistas against individuals, better we remain anonymous. Thus, attempts to silence people are mostly blind shots, and it makes the disingenuity behind all this even more obvious to anyone paying attention.

  • I don't mean to sound naive, but just what can a priest do to us who do not agree with the changing landscape or resist such changes?  Can a priest refuse the sacraments to us for standing on truth publicly?  If my priest calls me into his office, I will tell the truth and let the grace of our Lady take its course.

    If our priests and district superiors do not hear from us personally, will they believe that everyone is just ok with everything?  I do not know, but I have been pretty open with the US district office in my communications (lletters) and I have heard no word from them.

    What we are all feeling I presume are the same thoughts those who experience the debacle in the church after the Vat II modernisms were first introduced?  Perhaps some more, some less.  Many then kept quiet and look what happened?

  • MY ancestors were persecuted here in America because of their Catholic Faith.  

    We've been persecuted.  The last time I was pulled into novus ordo priest's office, I was cussed out by priest who used the f word and referred to me as "babe".   There were many other times of persecution and of course we were also ostacized...    

    Yes, the term obedience has been abused to justify sin.

  • It is hard and frustrating at times.  Why is there such lukewarmness?  

    I have to straighten myself out and examine my own conscience and sins but I have to look out for my husband and even other family too because I would love to go to Heaven and be with God and our Blessed Mother.  

    We can't remain silent because then we are an accomplice to sin.

    As Catholics we have a moral duty to practice the virtue of obedience but there are limitations to that which we cannot be commanded to obey any contraindications of a higher authority. Namely in denying the dogmas of our faith.
