Our New Parish, Our New Priest

They are the future of the Church, the new priests inspired by John Paul II and Benedict XVI, repelled by the sexual abuse crisis and the connected corrosions of moral relativity that has so infected our American Church over the past several decades; who are now bringing their message of clarity and tradition to parishioners hungry for their pastoral teaching.

We, who are also the future of the Church, must pray for them every day as they struggle against the world and those among the faithful still caught up in it’s miasma; but we should know, in our prayers, that not only our prayers are sustaining them, but also the prayers of the angels and Blessed Virgin Mary, and all of us, walking with Peter, will—as has been done so many times before—bring the fire of God’s transformative grace roaring through our Holy Mother Church.

“With Peter, to Christ, through Mary, for the Greater Glory of God”
