EMAIL SENT BY FR. GIROUARD TO HIS PARISHIONERS YESTERDAY (OCTOBER 1ST)

(Please note what he says about the Neo-SSPX twisting the words of St. Paul to justify their policy of "inclusiveness")


Dear faithful from Aldergrove and Post Falls,

Below are a few quotes taken from the Neo-SSPX school in Calgary, Alberta (Canada). It is the official school policy, which they had to have approved by the government in order to get funding by the Province of Alberta. I have put some words in red.

Examples of Unacceptable Behaviour include:
(...)
b) Acts of bullying, harassment or intimidation because of a school member’s race,
religious beliefs, colour, physical disability, mental disability, age, ancestry, place of
origin, marital status, source of income, family status, gender, gender identity,
gender expression and sɛҳuąƖ orientation.
(...)
The Board will not tolerate harassment, bullying, intimidation or discrimination of
students or staff as provided for in the Alberta Human Rights Act or the Canadian
Charter of Rights and Freedoms which includes discrimination on the basis of an
individual’s actual or perceived differences, including sɛҳuąƖ orientation, gender identity
and gender expression.
(...)
1. This procedure has been developed to:
(...)
3. (c) provide training consistent with the traditional Catholic faith for all teachers
and other staff that promotes a welcoming, caring, respectful and safe learning
environment that respect diversity and fosters a sense of belonging including with
respect to gender identity and gender expression;
4. (d) provide resources consistent with traditional Catholic teaching on social
relationships and to support students who require assistance as a result of their
gender identity or gender expression. As St. Paul reminds us, “For in Christ
Jesus, you are all children of God, through faith. There is neither Jєω nor Greek,
neither slave nor free, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in
Christ.” (Galatians 3:27-28

I think it is really bad to twist the meaning of St. Paul's words to fit in with the freemasonic doctrine of "inclusion", especially when we know how the same Apostle condemned ɧoɱosɛҳųαƖity with such strong words as the ones he used in his epistle to the Romans (chap. 1, 24-28 ).

I know our schools need money. But what's the point of having our own schools, if it's to adopt and conform to the world views?

Watch and pray, and BE STRONG!

... It is the official school policy, which they had to have approved by the government in order to get funding by the Province of Alberta. ...

So, it is about funding, but that's not the whole of it.
I believe that SSPX schools in Australia also receive government funding. There was a thread about is quite a while back. Yes better to close schools than to accept filthy lucre.

I work for a school that does that not accept a dime of government money. We write, produce, and teach our own curriculum on the Classical model. We are accredited by three independent agencies.  While recognized by the state as a school, we are not beholden to them in what, how, or who we teach.  We obliged only to obey city fire, health, safety, and zoning laws, same as any business or public building.  

There are many sacrifices. I will probably never retire.  I'm poor as far as worldly standards. We don't have luxurious facilities. We aren't "up to date" with students using technology.  (Students are not permitted to carry phones.  They are turned off and kept in the office until dismissal time.) 

We cover US grades K - 8.  At present, all but grades 3 and 7 are full. There are two seats in grade 3, one in grade 7.  The school opened in September of 1948 in response to concerned parents.  We're proof it CAN be done.

According to the school's website:

"About Us
St. John Bosco Private School is an independent school affiliated with the Alberta Charitable Society of St. Pius X.  The majority of the students come from St. Dennis Parish, however, Catholic and non-Catholic students from the community may apply for enrollment.  Students are transported to school by their parents.  Traditional Catholic teachings are emphasized and the Alberta Program of Studies is followed."

What's the "Alberta Program of Studies" which "is followed?"

Here's the website: https://education.alberta.ca/topic-search?searchMode=3

Here's what the program stipulates for Catholic schools:

"RELIGIOUS EDUCATION (ROMAN CATHOLIC/UKRAINIAN CATHOLIC) 15–25–35 AND RELIGIONS OF THE WORLD 35
In Catholic schools, students participate in a religious education program that is authorized by the Bishops of Alberta. Catholic high schools offer Religious Education (Roman Catholic) 15–25–35 and Religions of the World 35. In Catholic high schools offering the Religious Education (Ukrainian Catholic) program, students participate in a religious education program that is authorized by the Bishop of the local eparchy.
