Bishop Strickland and Tradition

DVRodriguez2024-12-26T10:49:41-05:00

Statement by Bishop Strickland 20 December 2024. At the start of this Advent, the Traditional Latin Mass was suppressed in Tyler, Texas. Pope Francis has now appointed Most Rev. Gregory Kelly, Auxiliary Bishop of Dallas, as the fifth bishop of the Diocese of Tyler. However, it is very unlikely that the Latin Masses will be returned. It seems, however, the if Bishop Joseph Strickland were returned to his rightful office as Bishop of Tyler, then the Latin Mass would not only be restored, but it would grow. Bishop Strickland recently took a forceful and public stand on the necessity of holding [...]

Recap: One Day Conference

Recap: Fatima and the Holy Face Conference This event took place on Saturday, December 14, 2024, in Burlington, Kentucky. A heartfelt thanks to all who supported this very successful event. Nearly one-hundred people were in attendance. Many left inspired to spread devotion to Our Lord's Holy Face and Our Lady's Fatima Message. Both of these devotions are essential spiritual elements for crushing the forces of evil dominating the world and for ushering in a glorious (and miraculous!) Catholic restoration in the future. Many Catholic resources were distributed, including sacramentals, prayer cards, veils, books and audio talks. Father Carney autographed copies of [...]

Attack Upon the Mass in Tyler, Texas

DVRodriguez2024-11-19T09:21:05-05:00

News from Tyler, Texas 9 November 2024: Vatican news correspondent Diane Montagna reports that the Traditional Latin Mass is being cancelled from five parishes in the Diocese of Tyler. This suppression of the Mass of All Time take effects upon the First Sunday of Advent. [See her report.] A year ago Bishop Strickland was uncanonically, unceremoniously, and unjustly removed from the episcopal chair of that diocese. One of the reasons he was 'cancelled' was because he refused to implement Traditionis Custodes and cancel the TLM. He said he could – in good conscience – harm his faithful flock by depriving them [...]

Spiritual Communion

My Jesus, I firmly believe that Thou art present — Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity — in the Blessed Sacrament of the altar. Lord, I believe, help my unbelief. Lord, increase my faith. [pause] I love Thee above all things and desire Thee in my soul. Yet my love is weak and inconstant, strengthen my love evermore. [pause] Since I cannot now receive Thee under the sacramental veil, I beseech Thee, with a heart full of love and longing, to come spiritually into my soul. [pause] As though Thou wert already there, I embrace Thee and unite myself wholly to Thee; [...]

Prayer to Jesus in the Blessed Sacrament

DVRodriguez2021-05-01T22:17:44-04:00

From the sermon given on 18 April 2021 Jesus, my Lord and my God, I adore Thee present in the Sacrament of Thy love. Thou art the same almighty God, Who has existed from eternity, by Whom all things were made, and without Whom was made nothing that was made. The very same God and wonderful Being Who is heaven’s beatitude. The same Who, from the summit of Mount Sinai, commanded the Israelites not to approach near Him, lest the terrors of His greatness should destroy them. Dearest Jesus, I believe most firmly that Thou, the second Person of the Most [...]

¡Oh amabilísimo y dulcísimo Jesús, nuestro Dios, nuestro Salvador, y nuestro Padre! ¿Cómo podemos nosotros, miserables criaturas que somos, responder al amor que Tú has mostrado y que no cesas de mostrarnos?
