-Happy Remembrance Day-
Long Live the Pope!
Long live the Pope!
His praises sound
Again and yet again:
His rule is over space and time:
His throne the heart of men:
All hail! The Shepherd Pope of Rome,
The theme of loving song:
Let all the earth his glory sing
And heav’n the strain prolong.
Beleaguered by
By the foes of earth,
Beset by hosts of hell,
He guards the loyal flock of Christ,
A watchful sentinel:
And yet, amid the din and strife,
The clash of mace and sword,
He bears alone the Shepherd Staff,
The champion of the Lord.
His praises sound

Then raise the chant,
With heart and voice,
In Church & school & home:
"Long live the Shepherd of the Flock!
Long live the Pope of Rome!"
Almighty Father bless his work,
Protect him in his ways,
Receive his prayer, fulfill his hopes,
And grant him length of days!
+Most Holy Mary, Mother of God. Mother of the Church, turn thine eyes towards our good Pontiff. Grant him the grace to be strong, and pray for him+

Horseradish crazy
We are now, LESS THAN A MONTH away from the New Translation of the Roman Missal! I am so excited, though I prefer the TLM, I do attend the NO at times. This is a large improvement for the Ordinary Form.You have seen how th liberals and anti-Church lot has gone absolutely nuts, horseradish crazy over the new more accurate, orthodox, a more poetic and less-conversational translation.
Upset over the intoduction of "theological language" oohh, what a crime. I'm sorry, but the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass is supposed to sound like a casual "Good day" conversation? But, that argument can sometimes be useless, since most of the dancy prancy rainbow-vestment crowd see the Mass as more of a meal, the time that we "get together and eat bread that represents Jesus", which is heresy. They lack the substance of religion. The Mass is when we adore and praise God himself, it is when we receive the very Body, Blood, Soul, and Divinity of Our Lord Jesus Christ. We receive Him Himself, His actual Body. Not bread.
Before Mass, I love to prepare myself by praying to the Blessed Virgin Mary, the Mother of God. I sing her praises due. When I receive Our Lord, I also as the Blessed Mother's intercession, then I worship and adore Him.
Progressives see no need for prayer, though they say that they do pray, dancing in a dress made of shower-curains, is not prayer.
In this new translation, where the cow, shall that lot fit the liturgical dance? Where will they fit the banners and streamers? Hopefull they won't. PRIESTS! Stand thy guard!
But, in the meanwhile, you know you have that safe haven in the Mass of the Ages, the TLM.

What Protestants are lacking
I think you will notice that most Protestants like to brag that their faith is "based upon the Bible", "scriptural", "the one true interpretation". And, that is the problem. First of all, they're not based upon the Bible. Most Protestants reject "faith, without good works, is dead". They say only faith is required. Secondly, most protestants reject the very-biblical truths, such as Purgatory, the Immaculate Conception, the perpetual Virginity of our Blessed Virgin, and even some go so far as to reject the Divinity of Our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ.
It is truly a shame, since so many souls are being led away from the truth, but these mega-church Preachers on the television, by the local Jehovah's Witnesses, by the SDA church down the road. Why? To be led away, these people obviously must not have had a strong faith to begin with. Or, is that not the case?
Maybe, it's because their Parish Priest (or their "qualified lay homilist")had taught the poor soul that all religions and beliefs are equal, that they all lead to God. Therefore, the poor soul thinks "well, I feel better and like the ___________'s beliefs better, my Priest said they're all equal. I'll give 'em a try". We know that the idea of "all faiths being equal", is a blatant lie. I fail to see how there could be more than one way to God. Why would He require certain beliefs of one Church, then entire different teachings in another. Answer, there wouldn't and there isn't. In essence, it defeats the purpose of having Truth.
Protestants lack the fullness of Truth
The is truth, the only Truth, and always shall be, always has been. The Truth is most holy and divine, and it comes from God most high himself, and is slowly revealed to us by Holy Mother Church. This is the joy that comes from being Catholic. This is the great joy experienced by all the Saints. To imitate Christ, with the Church. To imitate the Blessed Virgin, Mother of God!
One of the most effective ways to bring souls back into the Church, is by prayer. Pray the Holy Rosary for all souls, and pray to the Saints, your patron Saint. Meditate upon the passion of Our Lord, and assist at Mass fervently.

Moving dates
Finally, I have temporary but decent banner up!
A Happy All Souls Day to you.
In Canada, Newfoundland, Quebec, Nova Scotia, etc... unfortunately, the feast was moved to the Sunday following. Because, the Bishops think that most of us are too ignorant to realise it's a solemnity and that we will not attend Mass. Well, actually, if the Priest would actually let us know from the pulpit, I do believe that we wouldn't be ignorant, but anyhow, that's besides the point. Unfortunately for me, no TLM was offered today, so we shall celebrate All Souls NEXT Sunday.
If you're fortunate to attend a High Mass today, yesterday, or next Sunday, please fervently pray for the holy souls in Purgatory, which I pray often for.
It seems as if it is being spread that the SSPX is considering rejecting the preamble. A document WAS on the SSPX's UK site, but then quickly pulled. People posted on Fisheaters Forum AND Catholic Answers Forum about it, but they also removed half their posts. So, that causes confusion, naturally.

I am not posting the contents on these hallowed pages. It won't fit well with the wallpaper.
Though, it's quite excellent that a 16 year old is so interested in Latin.
