And on the topic of 2 Sister Lucys: Two Sister Lucys of Fatima? Sister Lucia of Fatima

Ukraine was a part of Russia in 1917 & didn't become independent until 1991. With Our Lady saying 'Russia' in 1917, it would have included what is now Ukraine. The underlying fact is there is no world peace, so no properly formatted consecration was ever done by a pope & in union with the bishops of the world. Pope Francis & the worlds bishops can help rectify this. Pray for their conversion. God can do ALL things, including fixing this pope & the worlds bishops.

I know my bishop hasn't said whether he will participate in the consecration, in union w/ the Pope as I asked the priest in the confessional on Saturday. He said they are waiting for guidance.

I'll save you the trouble bishop. Here's what a doctor of the church says about lay people touching Our Lord in the Eucharist:

“Because out of reverence towards this sacrament, nothing touches it, but what is consecrated; hence the corporal and the chalice are consecrated, and likewise the priest’s hands, for touching this sacrament. Hence it is not lawful for anyone else to touch it except from necessity, for instance, if it were to fall upon the ground or else in some other case of urgency.” Saint Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologica, Doctor of the Church

"I try to be a good & faithful servant to Our Lord Jesus Christ".

How does willful defiance & making a mockery of HIS sacraments make you a good and faithful servant?

How does your willful embrace of one of the 4 sins that cries out to Heaven for vengeance possibly bring glory to God?

It is never charitable to confirm someone in their sin nor it is charitable to provide a sacrilegious Holy Communion to someone when they are especially a public figure and obstinate in their sin w/ no firm purpose of amending their life for the very state of their own soul. Read what St. Paul says about receiving Our Lord unworthily.

God's stance on sodomy is very clear & so is the Catholic Church's teaching on the matter. We aren't Protestants. We don't make it up as we go. You don't like it, take your $7K you invested in the church elsewhere that will accept your wicked lifestyle.
