It was good enough for them, what about the rest of us?

The "Little Flower" during one of her later illnesses. What would she think of this?

Katrina Fernandez, at The Crescat, has suffered the loss of her Abuela (grandmother).

Kat; may the LORD welcome her into His arms and may she at this moment be enjoying the beatific vision. Eternal rest grant unto her O Lord and may light perpetual shine upon her. May she rest in peace. May you also be comforted in your loss and those members of our family also.

We owe Katrina thanks for even in her time of grief she has declared publicly the scandal which took place at the hands of the parish staff and priest at the Church of St. Therese of Lisieux in Chesapeake, Virginia. Somehow, I don't think the Little Flower would be impressed. No roses for you! Tell me, have you ever seen such a list of staff? PLEASE SEE AT THE END OF THIS POST.

Not only was it difficult to obtain the Last Rites for her Abuela, Kat herself was degraded at the communion rail, when she desired to receive Our Blessed Lord in the legal and first way, on her tongue. This can never be denied!

Tantumblogo at A Blog for Dallas Area Catholics asked a salient question, "Who is the real fundammentalist/extremist?"

My question for the priest is this, "Father, you clearly felt Kat was wrong, who were you to judge?

Communion in the hand is an error, a grievous error. It is an abomination and I urge you friend, please do not do it. Please receive Our Blessed Lord on your tongue and whenever possible, kneeling. It is permitted by indult and it can be revoked at any time. That will not happen under the current Bishop of Rome but mark my words well - there is a man alive right now who will one day sit on the Chair of Peter and that man will "restore all things in Christ."

He will do away with this abomination and he may very now be doing his penance for it.

Please visit Katrina at Patheos and read it all there.

Dominus est! They knew it. Do we?

How is it possible that any one parish could have so many email addresses on its web page?How many titles can it be possible to have in any parish? How many of these people are living off of the collection plate?

Well, somewhere in that list is the Pastor. Each address has a semi-colon between it so you can easily copy and paste into your address bar should you wish to let them know, with clarity and charity, what you think of what they did to Kat. There are more than 25, so you might want to divide it in half so it does not get blocked out as spam.
