WE MUST RENEW OUR EFFORTS FOR THE LATIN MASS
ECCLESIA DEI LETTER DECEMBER 2014
LETTER FROM MARY M KRAYCHY CHAIRMAN, ADVISORY BOARD
HOW THE ADVANCEMENT OF THE LATIN MASS HAS PROGRESSED, AND YET THERE IS MUCH MORE THAT NEEDS TO BE DONE. THE DEVIL HATES THE LATIN MASS AND DOES NOT WANT IT TO SPREAD. DISCOURAGEMENT IS ONE OF HIS MOST EFFECTIVE TOOLS. IF YOUR BISHOP , PRIEST, OR POPE FRANCIS EXPRESS DISINTEREST, DISAPPROVAL , OR DISTAIN FOR THE MASS AND YOUR EFFORTS,DON'T LET THIS ATTITUDE KEEP YOU FROM PRAYING FERVENTLY AND WORKING STEADLY TO PROMOTE THE MASS OF THE SAINTS AND MARTYRS. IN THE PAST FIVE YEARS, THOUSANDS OF PRIESTS HAVE TRAINED TO SAY THIS MASS. IT IS NOW BEING TAUGHT IN SEVERAL SEMINARIES. AS FATHER ZUHLSDORF WROTE RECENTLY,
"THE PROVISIONS OF SUMORUM PONTIFICUM STAND. THEREFORE....DO NOT WAIVER....DO NOT SLOW DOWN, DO NOT BE DOWNHEARTED..DO NOT RELENT, DO NOT BUDGE, DO NOT STOP WORKING. WE NEED MORE CELEBRATIONS OF THE OLDER FORM OF THE HOLY MASS, IN MORE AND MORE PLACES, BY MORE AND MORE PRIESTS. KEEP ATIT.GET THOSE RESOURCES TO PRIESTS. PAY ANY PRICE, OFFER ANY HELP, GO THE EXTRA MILE"
I say:
CATHOLICS WERE NOT CALLED TO BE COWARDS, BUT IN BAPTISM AND HOLY CONFIRMATION, CALLED TO BECOME SOLDIERS OF CHRIST. WE CAN NOT FAIL, WE MUST NOT FAIL. NO MATTER WHAT BLOCKAIDES THEY PUT BEFORE US, WE MUST OVERCOME.
IT IS UP TO US TO INSIST THAT A LATIN MASS BE HELD IN OUR PARISHES. JUST AS JESUS TOLD US ABOUT THE WOMAN THAT KEPT INSISTING BEFORE HER KING UNTIL HE FINALLY GAVE IN TO HER REQUEST, SO TOO MUST WE DAILY RENEW OUR EFFORTS.
THE COALITION IN SUPPORT OF ECCLESIA DEI IS NOW LOCATED AT 4545 WEST 63RD STREET IN CHICAGO, IL. 60629, AND CAN BE REACHED AT TELEPHONE # 1-773-284-7785
GOD BLESS YOU
