The Hour is Late when the Abomination of Desolation Desecrates the Altar of St. Peters!

You no doubt have noticed that the readings over the past weeks center around the book of Maccabees and the abominations raised up in the temple and the persecutions of Antiochus. Is it "just a coincidence" that we heard these things (and continue to hear them) during and after the pagan Amazon Synod? I don't think so. God seems to be pointing his finger at the desecrations and inviting us to open our eyes and SEE. If you haven't been fighting yet, Church Militant, it's time, way past time in fact. Today I'm writing to my bishop asking for Masses of repentance -- at the Cathedral -- and at every parish in the diocese. Whom do we serve? Pope Francis and Pachamama or Jesus Christ, King of Kings and Lord of Lords. "I call heaven and earth to witness this day, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing. Choose therefore life, that both thou and thy seed may live." (Deut 30:19)

It's a "Nineveh Moment" -- Pray, Fast, and Do Penance!

You know not the day or the hour, but the signs of the times are serious indeed. The video below can give you plenty of subject matter to take before the Blessed Sacrament in adoration. Let's all commit to prayer, penance, and fasting: for the Holy Father, for all the bishops and clergy of the world, for the laity, especially for parents. Above all, pray for the little ones. I grew up in a time of relative faith, innocence, peace, and prosperity. I remember 40 Hours Devotion, May Crownings, and Corpus Christi processions. I knew nothing about pornography or abortion. Most of the families we knew were intact.

What are we giving the little ones today? Transgender story hours and diversity bookbags, violent video games, ads on TV that deserve an R (or X) rating, not to mention scandalous films by the bucketful. God have mercy on us!
