After 42 years of priesthood, 30 unjustly in prison, ‘The Whisky Priest,’ the central figure of Graham Greene’s best known novel, comes to my mind in darker times. “You are sure to find another cross if you flee the one you bear.” — Anonymous Mexican Proverb + + + I was ordained to the priesthood on June 5, 1982, the sole candidate for priesthood in the entire State of New Hampshire that year. On the next day, June 6, 1982, I was nervously standing in a corner in the Sacristy as I prepared to offer my First Mass in Saint John the Evangelist Church in Hudson, New Hampshire. The church was packed with friends, family, and strangers from near and far. I was standing in a corner because the Sacristy was filled with my brother priests all vesting to join me for the occasion. I imagined they were watching me for signs that I might flee. I peered through the open sacristy door at the huge, anticipating crowd and my anxiety level was off the scales. I wished for a way to calm my nerves. Just …More

The Church is on the move. We are in the world and we’re invited to share what we have received from Jesus. We already carry everything in our heart. We will pass on what we receive in abundance. Jesus, through us, will come to listen, to watch, to console, to heal people of the great lack of missing out on Love. Going beyond our capabilities doesn’t require greater effort. It requires above all living in faith, to let Jesus be Lord and to be conscientious to what others are going through. In reality, we don’t need to go beyond our capacities. We discover what is essential in us, what God has placed. It creates balance. We don’t need more. We already have what’s necessary. As a guitar player retreats alone to practice his pieces of music, before making them available to the public, we’ll retreat in a favorable environment and pay attention, in a place of prayer, hear and discover what lives in us, of what God gives us, bound to his Love. Then, as the musician, we will be able to join …More

"Here she is, the enfant terrible....," Francis said at the end of his tour of St Peter's Square after the general audience on 5 June, referring to Sister Geneviève Jeanningros, 81. OsservatoreRomano.va reports that Francis greeted the sister, who lives with Sister Anna Amelia in a trailer among homosexual and transvestite prostitutes in Rome. She has been encouraging them in their vice for 56 years without calling them to repentance. Francis sees in her "the Gospel [according to Bergoglio] lived on earth". If she had tried to lead the transvestites to Christ, Francis would have insulted her as "rigid", "dogmatic", "promotor of proselytism" or some other epithet. On Wednesday, Jeanningros appeared with a person called "Ada", to whom Francis gave a rosary and a blessing. They were placed in the front row, as is Francis' custom when he receives transvestites who use this occasion to promote their vice. Next Wednesday, Jeanningros will return with another group of ten privileged people, …More

The High Court of Justice in Madrid has overruled a city official and declared that the Rosary can be prayed in the streets of the Spanish capital on 8 and 9 June, during the European elections. The prayer will take place next to a Marian church right in front of the headquarters of the Socialist Party, which is very hostile to the Church. The ruling states that there are "no well-founded reasons" to justify how the prayer would affect the political neutrality required on election day. The organisers said in a statement that 'in the face of their [= the regimes] prohibitions, we must defend without fear what is ours'. One wonders how much it has cost in legal fees for lawyers and courts to reach this decision. #newsTocqjjtivf

"A powerful LGBT lobby has taken up residence within the Catholic Church and breached the dam of its moral doctrine. The goal of this lobby is to come to change the Church’s Magisterium, which condemns homosexuality without appeal. We are not dealing with a conspiracy theory." [...] "Some theologians and canonists have criticized this document because it deprives diocesan bishops of the power to make a reliable judgment on present extraordinary phenomena, transferring it to the Dicastery of the Faith and ultimately to the Holy Father. However, this centralization of power is not the most problematic element of the text." Source
