Canada: Archbishop Presides Eucharist In Masonic Temple

en.news3 years agoedited

This year's Eucharist marking the friendship between the Knights of Columbus of North Dakota (USA) and Manitoba (Canada) will be presided over in a Masonic auditorium on the grounds of the International Peace Garden, which covers both US and Canadian territory.

The July 7 Eucharist will be presided over by Winnipeg Archbishop Richard Gagnon. An archdiocesan official told PillarCatholic.com (June 23) that Gagnon originally thought that the Eucharist would be held outdoors.

Previously, the Eucharist was celebrated in a tent in the park or in a music auditorium. The Masonic auditorium was built by the Grand Lodges of Manitoba and North Dakota in the shape of the Masonic square and compass logo. It seats approximately 2,000 people.

For centuries, the Masonic sect was a dangerous enemy for the Church. In modern times, popes, bishops and priests have taken over this role.

What's with all the "celebrate Eucharist"? Whatever became of "the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass"?

The Church has entered a dangerous time where, increasingly, shepherds are no longer trusted by the flock, or the shepherds are leading the flock astray. Mary, help of all sinners, pray for us and send the Church the leadership your Son wants it to have.

So who is in schism?

Gagnon isn't a Catholic. They should have asked Bergoglio to celebrate it. He isn't Catholic either.

If so, and I do mean 'if', Gagnon has grounds to rescind his promise to be there. But why such dubious affiliation would make the desecration of the Eucharist 'outdoors' any better is beyond my reasoning abilities.
