Please keep these posts coming Padraig DeGaulle Garabandal et al. All of you on this thread--too numerous to name--are a great comfort to me. I take such consolation in reading everyone. This is so dire. I am finding it very hard to pray more than very short little prayers. We are about to "go dark" since our generator is running out of fuel and no replacement til tomorrow. it seems a metaphor for the spiritual landscape all around me.

John 6:68 I68 Simon Peter answered him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life. 69 We have come to believe and to know that you are the Holy One of God.”

I didn't sleep last night. I'm heartbroken. Such a huge betrayal on the lead up to Christmas is terrible. This morning we got up to find our haybarn on fire. We had the fire brigade etc. All fine now but I am beyond distraught
I think Bishop Strickland is a white martyr, a living saint - what a faithful, strong, and holy man. I am also always a delighted to see John-Henry Westen. Thanks for posting this.
I am so sorry. I think we have all shared in this sorrow and horror and alarm. I am sure the hay barn was like the last straw. We are without power and may well be until the weekend. Our whole state was massively hit with this storm and now the long repair and clean up.
We were very lucky but it's not really the haybarn it's like the world is on fire. I don't know who I can trust so many many catholics including priests and Bishops will just accept this.
Saint Teresa of Avila comments when talking about the Dark Night it isn't one thing it is another. That in times of trial things can kinda pile up on us. I can see now why Our Lady was underlining and underlining and underlining the need for spiritual preparation for the huge trials ahead. I think we all knew these people had a dark agenda and the awful things that were headed right towards us. But some how or another I had just no idea at all how deeply it would affect me and hurt when they actually started to come on our heads. It truly is a huge, huge spiritual trial. We know from Prophecy and what we see around us that the huge majority of the clergy are going to give way to all this wickedness. SO for them in a way this is not s trial. They will,all of them slide right out down that slippery slope to hell right behind the wicked false shepherds how lead them right into the Eternal Flames, laughing and giggling and thinking everything's fine as they fall right on in there. But for those of us, The Faithful Remnant who don't buy into this demonic crap it will be a hard push not to fall into the dark hole they are, all of them trying to talk us into going down along with the rest of them. The answer is ,as it always was, prayer, prayer prayer. There's nothing else to it. Prayer, prayer and lots of it. I have to say though, thank God to have a good Traditional Church right beside me. Why? Because its highly unlikely they'll buy into this devilish abominable nonsense. I have to say though if anyone reading this happens to be in a Parish that starts , 'Blessing' sodomy and Sodomites get to heck out of there as quickly as your feet could ever take you and unlike Lots' wife don't ever look back, not for a second. Get away from them as fast as your feet will take you. God will demand a reckoning for all this, you don't want to be in God's sights when He makes His move...and He will, oh yes indeed He will. 'Fire will fall from heaven'. Our Lady of Akita.
If one is at a Mass and the priest gives a public blessing to one of these 'couples', does one negate the fulfillment of one's Mass-going obligation, if one chooses to walk out? Indeed, is this kind of response appropriate as it's exactly what 'Big Gay' would hope one would do? Damned if we do and damned if we don't.
