So do all the progressives who are constantly seeking to destroy our Church…read this paragraph from their webpage…I was completely sickened by it.

"On September 28, 1969 the first contemporary Mass was held in the gym. It was unconventional from the start. The altar sat on the gym floor level with the congregation. Non-ordained men and women were lectors and they distributed Communion years before it was allowed. Many of the prayers spoken during the Mass were composed by Father Egan, and in them God was “She” as often as “He”. Father Egan had long been a pacifist and activist. He believed that Christians need to hear the message of peace and social justice in order to carry the message of Christ into the *real *world. Homilists came from the community and represented a medley of religions, philosophies, political and social concepts. "

ABOMINATION!!!


Sunday Mass guest ‘speaker’ Michael Hennessey

Everyone that is seeking to destroy our wonderful Church claims to be doing the same thing…they say they are living in the spirit of VII 😦 I guess that is the infallible excuse for doing anything you want.

The picture I posted made me sick…so does this paragraph from their website…check it out:

I couldn’t find on their website where they claimed to be a Roman Catholic parish or what dioceses they are in.
Also couldn’t find them listed in any dioceses in that area. Has anyone had better luck ? I thought the Twin Cities were in the Madison diocese.
 
The smoke of Satan is in the Church. What makes us think that we have a respite from Satan in this spritual war. He is making strides and he is counting on us to become disheartened. But to fight him, we here in the Church Militant (and let’s never for a minute forget that that’s what we are) need to do combat Satan at the Spiritual level, the level of principalities and powers. So what should we do? Well, it’s commendable that there are so many knowledgeable Catholics on this site, and it’s commendable that through the Internet and through this site, we’re able to know what dissent is going on in our beloved Church. But now, we have to act, and I would recommend that we say the Rosary each day from now on for the intention of driving the smoke of Satan from the Church. We could pray the Rosary as a novena, and change the intention every nine days, but it would always pertain to Satan and the dissidents who seek to destroy the Church. Working together would really energize all of us because frankly I’m getting discouraged. The moral relativism, political correctness, and secular humanism that underlies all of the attacks within and without the Church are getting pretty overwhelming, but that’s part of Satan’s arsenal too, to make us believe that we’re all alone and hence incapable of making a difference. But we as the Church Militant,well that’s a different story. Let’s start praying the Rosary continuously, perpetually, as Catholic Answer Forum Catholics, as members of the Church Militant, so that we can make some headway against Satan and all his pomps.
 
This tidbit from the pastor from the bulletin of 2 weeks ago:

I sometimes forget how unfamiliar many people are with addressing God as Mother. Addressing God as Mother has been a part of our parish experience for over thirty-five years. It is becoming more and more common to express the feminine dimension of God as Christians struggle with how to name the Divine Mystery. I personally have used feminine images of God for a long time—first, because they enrich our perception of who God is, and also because I realized how insensitive it is to women to view God in exclusively male and patriarchal terminology.

Yeah.

He ends with:

Referring to God as Mother is both the expression of an evolving feminist theology and a creative insight into the compassionate, nurturing qualities of a God whose love for us is beyond our comprehension. Maybe we should balance the scales and refer to God as Mother for the next couple thousand years. May She continue to bless us!
 
That did it…I think I really will be sick now. 😦

Dick Hedlund and Lee Vague often deliver guitar solos during songs that always receive applause.

Let’s see what HH Pope Benedict XVI has to say about that:
Wherever applause breaks out in the liturgy because of some human achievement, it is a sure sign that the essence of liturgy has totally disappeared and been replaced by a kind of religious entertainment.

Didn’t Christ teach us to say “Our Father” when we pray, and during His Passion give us a Mother as well? Seems to me He set it all up like a family, with two parents 2000 years ago.

Oh well, thank goodness we have them to teach us how it ought to be… I mean what would we do without them all :confused:.
 
everyone read cecelia’s entry again. 👍

We must use these abominations as fuel to all the more preach the Truth about the Catholic Faith and to never give up!

God will rescue His Church from the evil one, as He has triumphantly done in the past! :yup:

God bless you all!

And keeping fighting the good fight of faith!
 
There is also a church in Detroit or Chicago called St. Faustina’s i believe. They are technically a Catholic Church but they like to be called the Faith Community of … They constantly talk about eliminating the spirit of division and often have the homily given by preachers of other faith. They are also in the habit of calling their pastor annointed etc in a very fundamentalist style. I don;t know the link but it is interesting. I don’t know what people have to gain by doing this. Obviously they can’t really know the Bible or the History of our Church. Jesus was about love but not abuse of his kindness. After he forgave sinners he said go and sin no more.

Orthodox Catholics in the St. Paul/Minneapolis Archdiocese have been howling for such action for years, and Archbishop Harry Flynn knows perfectly well whats been going on there, but in his bizarre wisdom has long since elected to do nothing in regard to St. Joan’s.

I am astounded that this is the same diocese that has St. Agnes in St. Paul.
 
After looking at both of those websites, I thank God for my church! I noticed at Saint Joan of Arc, when I clicked on the sacrements, in regard to Confession, this is what it said:
“Saint Joan of Arc offers a Communal Reconciliation service during Lent & Advent. Private confession times, typically on Saturday afternoon before 5:00 Mass , MAY BE SCHEDULED by calling the Parish Center.” Sheesh! Why bother! It’s obvious they don’t encourage confession.:tsktsk:
In the bulletin where the Pastor had his letter, one of the paragraphs said:“A church that is hushed and quiet inhibits a spirit of hospitality.” He finds it strange that in so many churches people are expected to ignore each other until the service starts.
I guess focusing on Our Lord before Mass is not very hospitable, and that’s what we come to Mass for, right:confused: God is certainly not the center at either of those churches. It’s more like “The Church of ME and how can I feel good about MYSELF.” and “BE whatever and DO whatever, whereever you
are on your journey.” (insert BARFING SMILEY)
 
The Body and Blood of Christ is administered by Fr. Jim Cassidy and weekly Eucharistic ministers. During the Eucharist, musicians play and parishioner sing songs of joy, love and compassion. All are welcomed at Jesus’ table.

:gopray2: Please tell me I’m reading this part, which I highlighted in red, wrong.

Are they saying what I think they’re saying? Everyone, regardless of whether or not they’re in a state of grace or even Catholic, can receive Communion?
