Cardinal Alfredo Ottaviani


During the very first session of the Second Vatican Council, Cardinal Ottaviani, President of the Theological Commission, was challenging the liturgical ‘revolution’ that was being proposed and ran over his allotted time. His microphone was abruptly switched off. To the revolutionaries he was not singing their tune and had to be silenced as quickly as possible. This shameful lack of respect to a venerable and aged cardinal set the scene for the contemptuous way in which the sacred liturgy and the laity of the Catholic Church have been treated for the past forty years. Its liturgy is no longer sacred or liturgical, and the laity and their opinions are of no interest to those driving forward the revolution.  The rest of the story can be found here.

A Short Critical Study of the New Ordo of Mass can be read here.
 
"The Novus Ordo Missae ...represents both as a whole and in its details, a striking departure from the Catholic theology of the Mass as it was formulated in Session 22 of the Council of Trent."

Fr. Emil Kapaun

 

 Fr. Emil Kapaun, was an extraordinary American who was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross and named a "Servant of God" by the Vatican. "Try to escape," the wounded American soldiers warned their chaplain, Fr. Kapaun. However, he refused to leave his comrades and became a POW. His decision marked a turning point in the inspiring life of this young Kansas-born priest.

Fr. Kapaun's faith and courage on the battlefield and in a North Korean prison set an example for hundreds of young American captives. When they were starving, he "stole" food for them. If the men needed encouragement, he defied prison rules and prayed with them. When the communist guards mocked his faith in God, the chaplain publicly defended his beliefs. When Fr. Kapaun became sick, the communists denied him medicine and watched him die in their vermin-infested "hospital." However, they could not extinguish the memories of how he served other prisoners. 

See video's on Fr. Kapaun and a possible miracle which may bring him closer to sainthood.  Check out his biography in the book, A Shepherd In Combat Boots.

Merry Christmas & a Blessed New Year 2010.



And in the sixth month, the angel Gabriel was sent from God into a city of Galilee, called Nazareth,  To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary.  And the angel being come in, said unto her: Hail, full of grace, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.  Who having heard, was troubled at his saying, and thought with herself what manner of salutation this should be.  And the angel said to her: Fear not, Mary, for thou hast found grace with God.
  Behold thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and shalt bring forth a son; and thou shalt call his name Jesus.  He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the most High; and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of David his father; and he shall reign in the house of Jacob for ever.  And of his kingdom there shall be no end.  And Mary said to the angel: How shall this be done, because I know not man?  And the angel answering, said to her: The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the most High shall overshadow thee. And therefore also the Holy which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.
  And behold thy cousin Elizabeth, she also hath conceived a son in her old age; and this is the sixth month with her that is called barren:  Because no word shall be impossible with God.  And Mary said: Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it done to me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.
