"Satanic Revival" To Take Place In Baltimore May 1-2

The American Society for Tradition, Family and Property has issued this alert for all Catholics, and indeed all who call themselves Christian to pray and take strong action against literal satan-worship from happening in Baltimore on May 1-2.  The announcement and suggested action steps are in that hyperlink.  However, I will reproduce it below.

On May 1, the Satanic Temple plans to hold an event called the Satanic Revival at the Mobtown Ballroom in Baltimore. This will be their first national event since SatanCon in 2023.

This diabolical program includes:

•       A talk titled: “The Satanic Pulpit: Sinful Testimonies.”
•       A Ceremony of Infernal Pride
•       A drag performance
•       A concert by the Pentagram String Band
•       A study session about the “Satanic religion.”

Furthermore, all of the event’s attendees are required to surrender their souls to Satan.

In response, the American TFP has launched a petition urging the owners of Mobtown Ballroom to cancel this blasphemous program. We need to let them know that it is unacceptable for any venue to invite the Evil One under its roof.

No words can describe how evil this is. Satan has no place in the public square—you and I both know that. And that is why taking action is not optional.

In addition to signing the petition, please contact Mobtown Ballroom and respectfully urge them to cancel the “Satanic Revival” immediately.

Here is some contact information you can use. Please be polite, but firm:

Phone number for Mobtown Ballroom

 (443) 699-3040

Sarah Sullivan, Co-Owner of Mobtown Ballroom

sarah@mobtownballroom.com

Michael Seguin, Co-Owner of Mobtown Ballroom

michael@mobtownballroom.com

Let us pray to Saint Michael the Archangel and ask him to crush the devil’s head once again!

As you can see, anyone who wishes to attend must literally surrender their souls to the devil, thus incurring risk of eternal damnation. 

The American TFP is organizing a protest of this event (if it goes on as scheduled) to offer reparation for the blasphemies and sacrileges that will happen during that event.  As I learn of details, I will post them.

Pictures Of Thug Who Attacked Baltimore Pro-Life Activists

Metro Crime Stoppers is offering a reward for information leading to the arrest of the thug who attacked two pro-life activists outside the Baltimore Planned Parenthood almost two weeks ago.  $2,000 is the reward.  Here are the pictures.  Let's get this guy behind bars.

Update On The Two Baltimore Activists Assaulted Last Week

Just one week ago, two Baltimore pro-life activists were assaulted outside a Planned Parenthood abortuary in downtown Baltimore.  One of them was seriously injured.

LifeSiteNews interviewed both of these men outside the Planned Parenthood and tried to interview some of the deathscorts.  Click here for their update.  Scroll all the way to the bottom to participate in a fundraiser to assist Mark Crosby with his considerable medical expenses.

Last but not least, get yourselves in front of your local baby-murder site on a regular basis.

Bishops Meeting In Baltimore Starts Tomorrow November 14 - It's Time To Call Them Out

Yesterday's Mass was the Memorial of St. Josaphat, bishop and martyr.  The first reading appears below.

Here John is exhorting the recipients to assist some missionaries.  Take note of the third line from the bottom, where it says that these missionaries "are accepting nothing from the pagans".  Dear readers, for the past several decades, our bishops have sold the collective soul of the US Catholic Church as they grovel and snivel before de facto pagan governments for huge sums of our tax dollars.  Of course many of these receipts are funneled to leftwing progressive organizations.  

We can rest assured that they will be strategizing ways to suck some more from the federal teats.  That will be high on the priority list along with the ongoing efforts to strangle the Traditional Latin Mass and marginalize faithful Catholics, while allowing pro-abortion politicians and other celebrities to receive Holy Communion sacrilegiously.  Baby-slaughter, gay perversions and loss of supernatural faith among Catholics will register mere blips on their radar screens - if that much.

Fortunately faithful Catholics are rising up and are calling our bishops to be the shepherds that they've been ordained to be.  Please see the flyer below.  This is a call for Catholic men to be actual men.  I know that many men have participated in the "That Man Is You" and the "Exodus 90" programs these past few years.  Now here's a golden opportunity to put some walk to all that talk.  Men in the Baltimore/DC area, be there!  If you are in distant areas of the country, organize your own marches.

Baltimore CCHD Gets A New Director

Here is the write-up in Baltimore's Catholic Review.  Monsignor Richard Bozzelli is replacing Monsignor William Burke, who ran the Baltimore CCHD for 50 years.  According to the Review, Burke "left his legacy of social justice in the Baltimore area."   Legacy of social justice!  If these escapades are their idea of "legacy of social justice", no wonder Baltimore has degraded into a decrepit slum town!

Burke was at the helm of the CCHD these past several decades, so he completely owns responsibility for those debacles.

Truth be told, I don't expect much improvement (if any) under Bozzelli, for the corrupt hierarchy would not choose someone who might actually bring Catholic faith and morality into its social-justice rackets. I'd be delighted if I were proven wrong in that respect, but I don't think that will happen.

Join A Rosary Of Reparation In Baltimore On March 7

Notre Dame of Maryland University will be conducting the Women of the World Festival, a progressive gab-fest at Baltimore's Inner Harbor on Saturday, March 7. Former Planned Parenthood president Cecile Richards will be a keynote speaker.  See this page for other progressive and pro-death speakers.  Please note that there is an "empowerment room" for girls aged 6-10, with no adults (parents) allowed.

As you can see from the flyer below, America Needs Fatima will be conducting a Rosary of Reparation outside the gab-fest abomination and are inviting all Catholics to join them.  I for one will be there and I'd suggest that all local Catholics set aside plans to join us (unless of course, you are already involved in similar efforts, such as witnessing in front of abortion mills).  We are in Lent, when we are asked to step up our efforts at prayer, fasting and almsgiving.  This activity will boost all three of these actions in our lives.

I now direct this challenge to men who are involved in "That Man Is You" and/or "Exodus 90".  These two programs have as goals the formation of true Catholic men worthy of the name.  It's one thing to engage in exercises within the relatively safe confines of your homes and parishese.  But men are called not only to transform themselves, but the world around them.  Here lies a golden opportunity.  Yes, you might be opposed and ridiculed, but...so what?  This is Lent.  Die to self and take up your crosses in imitation of Our Lord.  See you on March 7.

Archbishop Gregory Opens Mouth And Inserts Both Feet

Archbishop Gregory made one of his first public addresses a day or so ago.  He took the occasion to lob a pot-shot at President Trump for accurately stating that parts of Baltimore are filled with both trash and violent crimes.  He spun the president's remarks to insinuate that Trump aimed derogatory remarks at the Baltimore citizens themselves.  Quite frankly, both Gregory's and Lori's remarks are themselves dishonest and nonsensical.

Both Lori and Gregory are part of the liberal Church establishment.  They get lots of favors by doing the bidding of their Democrat task-masters.  They are coming to the defense of those task-masters because it's the Democrats that have been in charge of Baltimore for over 50 years.  Baltimore has not seen a Republican mayor since Theodore McKelden left that office in 1967.  Democrats have been at the helm since then - and two of those Demorats were the father and brother of House Speaker Nancy Pelosi.  But that's just a coincidence, I'm sure (ahem)!  There are many questions as to how Baltimore handled Federal grants throughout the years; where did that money go??

By the way - Washington DC has gone down the tubes as well.  DC's mayors have all been Democrats for the past 45 years.  Lori and Gregory should take a walk on their respective cities' wild sides and see for themselves how their cities have fared under their Democrat buddies.  One left-wing reporter from Fox 45 Baltimore did that in a run-down Baltimore neighborhood.  As she sniffed that Trump should "take a look at things for himself", a rat photobombed her video.  Take a look.

If Lori and Gregory can't give honest appraisals of the situations of their dioceses, maybe they should stick to their God-given jobs - you know, like, making sure the Faith is taught properly in their parishes, cleaning perversion from their parishes (like St Matthew's, Abhp Lori!), disciplining pro-abortion Catholic pols in their Churches by obeying Canon 915, you get the picture!

Until these things happen, I'd suggest complete boycotts of any archdiocesan collections in both DC and Baltimore.

St. Ignatius Of Baltimore - EGG On Its Face, Mortal Sin To Its Charge

Two months ago I wrote of St. Matthew's Church on Loch Raven Boulevard in Baltimore.  It is infested with those promoting the mortal sin of homosexual perversion - and that includes the pastor!  When I wrote that piece, I indicated that I'd write of another sin-swamp parish and now I'll do so.

This den of iniquity is called St. Ignatius Catholic Community.  It's on Calvert Street in the Mount Vernon area.  It touts itself as "the Jesuit Church of Baltimore".  I might say that would explain a lot of what I'll detail, but then what's the excuse for the malfeasances of St. Matthew's?

St. Ignatius also has a "gay ministry", that is, a group that will lull to sleep what remains of the consciences of homosexual Catholics so that they can commit mortal sin with their consciences effectively paralyzed.  Of course in committing these sins, they are greatly increasing their chances of incurring the pains of hell in the afterlife.  The pastor and other leaders of that parish, being answerable to God for the souls in their charge, will likely have hell to pay (literally) if they don't change course while they're still on this side of the grave.

You should have the St. Ignatius site open in its own window.  Let's now take a tour, shall we?   Go to the top menu and hover your mouse over "ministries".  Click on "community building".  A new page opens up and you'll see on the left something called "Embracing God's Gifts" (EGG).  This is St. Ignatius's "gay ministry".  How did they come to adopt this title "embracing God's gifts"?  I have a theory that I think is entirely plausible.  Recall the Extraordinary Synod on the Family that occurred in October 2014.  Readers of this blog will recall that an interim report was released by the Vatican; I'll link to it on the Vatican website.  I refer you to paragraph 50, where the pope seems to be condoning homosexual conduct.  (For those interested, here are some archives for review).   If anyone ever wanted prima facie evidence of the harm caused by the pope's ambiguity, here's a prime example.

Let's examne the EGG page.  There is a video where Gordon Creamer (director?).  He talks of celebrating "gifts and contribution of gay and lesbian members"; he's hearkening back to paragraph 50 of the sin-nod's interim report.  Notice the "mission statement" that rolls by in "star wars" format.  Notice how it acknowledges being informed by church teaching, as opposed to being formed by Church teaching?  That difference is quite telling.  Then of course we have the loaded language of "open-mindedness" and "compassion".  At 2:34 Creamer states that "at various meetings we often study the Church's..body of literature".  Did you notice that moment of hesitancy?  Was he catching himself before he uttered the word "teachings" as opposed to "body of literature"?  He goes right into a book called "Fortunate Families".  I believe it's this book; it was on the table in the video.  Here is the website to "Fortunate Families".  This organization seems to be comprised of parents who are capitulating to the mortal sins in which their children are embroiled.  What they display is not charity, but cowardice and dereliction of duty.

Looking further down, we see that they have their monthly meetings and "pride cookouts" and even a "pride prayer service".  From the bulletin we see that they actually meet in parish offices; the announcement can be found right above the yoga announcement.  I now point you to an article published by New Ways Ministry.  If it can be believed (and that might well be the case), then the Archdiocese of Baltimore knows of the state of affairs at St. Ignatius and is, at the very least, turning a blind eye to the spiritual wreckage occurring at that church.  Such appears to be the case at St. Matthew's.

Let's go back to that "ministries" menu and look at "social responsibilities".  There's lots of indications that St. Ignatius falls into lockstep with the progressive agenda being promulgated.  For instance, if we look at the "economic justice"page, all we see are calls to lobby various governmental bodies for income/wealth redistribution.  No where do I see any calls for the parishioners to contribute to this "economic justice" out of their own means.  Then there's the obligatory call for amnesty for illegal aliens and such.

Now guess what's missing from that page?  I knew it wouldn't take too long to guess!  Yes!  There's no mention whatsoever of the greatest social injustice of this day - the slaughter of unborn children under the guise of legalized abortion.  With all these "ministries", where's the pro-life ministry?  The lack of such an endeavor tells me that this parish, by and large, simply doesn't care about authentic social justice nor for the teachings of Jesus Christ Himself.  Correction - it's there but you have to scroll down a good bit to see it.

I'm going to point out a seemingly unrelated incident.  It's not really unrelated as I'll elaborate in a few minutes.  On Friday, a 23-year-old seminarian was taken into custody at a San Diego airport.  He allegedly was en route to Mexico to engage in sexual acts - with helpless infants.  Yes, he was a Catholic seminarian who was about to engage in acts of brutal perversion.  One might wonder how such individuals can be so corrupted, or how the seminary did not screen him during the application process.  But all we need do is consider the corrupt parish life of parishes such as St. Ignatius, St Matthews and other "gay-friendly" parishes throughout the country and we needn't wonder.  If our parishes and dioceses aren't purified of this corruption soon, we can expect to see more such scenarios.

Pro-Life Activism Opportunities In Maryland

There are two activism opportunities arising in July.  I list them in chronological order.

2012 Artscape in Baltimore  Join pro-life activists at this event as they educate Artscape attendees of the reality of abortion.  They will be doing so via pictures of abortion victims, distribution of literature and discussions with attendees.  Activists will be there Friday July 20th and Saturday July 21st, from 4:00pm till 7:30pm at the intersection of Mount Royal Avenue and North Charles Street.  For additional information please contact Kurt Linnemann at klinnemann@cbrinfo.org or 410-913-3931.

12th Annual Face The Truth Tour  Conducted by Defend Life from July 23rd to July 27th.  Please visit Defend Life's website for the latest information, including a schedule of the tour and a downloadable flyer.

After Signing Their CPC Hate Bill, Baltimore's Mayor Compelled to Resign!

Remember last month, when I speculated why Baltimore Mayor Sheila Dixon was in such a rush to sign their cpc strangulation bill?  Refresh your memories here.  I stated the very real possibility at that time that Her Honor (?) might be removed from office and/or imprisoned for stealing. 

Read this update that just came out today.  It appears that some deals have been cut.  While she's not going to prison, she is leaving office.  There are more conditions, listed in that article.  I needn't re-elaborate them here.  However, I will point out that pro-abortion sympathies, that is, callousness towards unborn babies lead to immorality in other facets of life.  I believe in this instance the mayor was misappropriating money meant for needy children.  Makes sense, doesn't it?  If she'll turn her back on the unborn, why not on those who are just a few years older?

We certainly see this sort of scenario being played out in Washington, don't we?  With this pregnancy center strangulation attempt, who knows what corruption lurks in Rockville?  I think we've already seen evidence of that.

Baltimore City Pregnancy Centers Are Now Official Targets for Persecution

As expected, Baltimore's Mayor Sheila Dixon has signed Bill 09-0406, that passed by a vote of 12-3.  The Council shot down an amendment that would have made abortuaries post signs saying they don't inform of abortion alternatives.  Councilmen James Kraft and Bernard Young, with Councilwoman Agnes Welch voted for decency; all the others voted to cripple centers offering truly life-affirming assistance.  Baltimore City is the first city in the United States to enact such malicious legislation.

The fight is now being waged in Montgomery County.  I'll keep you posted on that.

The Real Reason Behind Baltimore City's Rush to Gag the CPCs?

As most know, the Baltimore City Council, on November 23, approved their Bill 09-0406 that is designed to cripple the prolife pregnancy centers in Baltimore City.

At this time, I haven't heard if Mayor Sheila Dixon signed it yet (her signature is expected).  However, I've learned of a possible reason why Baltimore City was so antsy to cram this bill so hastily.  It seems that Her Honor the Mayor may soon be taking up residence behind bars.  She may also be removed from office.  Some details of this are found in today's Washington Times.  She somehow got a hold of $525 worth of gift cards designated for poor children and used them.  She claims that they were an anonymous gift from a married man, with whom she admittedly had an affair.  Who knows the ins-and-outs of that?  Ms. Dixon is a Democrat; were she a Republican, there would be a deafening uproar for her immediate removal and imprisonment.  With the exception of the Times, it is the silence that has been deafening.  When you're a pro-abort liberal, the mass media lets you get away with murder - sometimes literally.

The aiding and abetting of murder is what Bill 09-0406 is all about; make no mistake about that.  So Her Honor better get her "John Hancock" on this last piece of legislative crap, before she's taken to the pokey!

Baltimore Catholics! You Must Be Doing Something Right!

A source who must remain unnamed forwarded a snippet of communication received from the Archdiocese of Baltimore:  (begin snippet)

Office of the Neumann Vicar
1) Parishes that received envelopes from the CCHD collection without money in them, but with notes or “coupons” protesting the CCHD should send them directly to Bishop Madden’s office at the Catholic Center.

(end snippet)

Now what does that mean?  Will you be receiving "guilt trip" letters?  If so, I'd suggest that you point out your support of authentically Catholic charities: those that actually perform the Works of Mercy (both corporal and spiritual).  You might also point out these most serious gaffes of the Baltimore CCHD office: funding a prisoner-advocate group to have a child molester lobby against landlord rights (our November 9th posting) or, the funding of the Baltmore ACORN from local funds so that they can tell pimps how to engage in sex trafficking of underage girls (our September 23rd posting).

Or just put it in the trash.  If any other fallout occurs, please advise via the comment box.  Thank you, and again - congratulations!  You have made your concerns known to the Archdiocese CCHD, and they have taken note!

More Scandal at Baltimore CCHD

In the September 23rd posting, we saw that the Baltimore CCHD granted $10k in 2008 to the local ACORN - one of the first ACORN branches to be caught acting as a whorehouse advisory services, giving counsel as to how to exploit underage girls without getting caught.  We now learn from Accuracy in Media and a post in Freerepublic.com. that the same Baltimore CCHD funded an outfit called "Out for Justice / Alternative Directions."  On the staff of Alternative Directions is one Jay Sherr - a convicted child pornographer.  Follow the links on the Freerepublic page.  Both Out for Justice and Alternative Directions advocate for released prisoners.  One of the goals for "Out for Justice" is the removal of the right of a landlord to inquire about the criminal record of someone applying to rent a unit.  Translation - they want to remove legal protections of landlords and neighbors from potentially dangerous neighbors and tenants.  Baltimore CCHD, therefore, is funding efforts to expose innocent people in their own neighborhoods to perverts and felons.

The reasons to boycott the CCHD collection this weekend are crawling out from under the rocks at an astonishing pace.

Guess Who Baltimore CCHD Is Funding?

Just what stellar organization won grants in 2008 from Baltimore's Catholic Campaign for Human Development? Hint - you'll go NUTS over them!
Yes. Catholics of Baltimore, watch the following (two parts ) to see your contribution dollars - at work!




Now let's take a look at the Baltimore CCHD's 2008 Grants. Some careful examination is in order because this thing might be a bit tricky. For instance, look at the "National Economic Development Grants" section. What's the second item? Why, it shows that $35,000 was granted in 2008 to that same organization you just watched in the above video. Did you note the identical addresses? Just below that you read a disclaimer stating that "no national CCHD funds will go to ACORN.."

Well, that's nice! But what about local CCHD funds??

Go further down in that report - to "Local Grants". Does the recipient listed in item 4 look familiar? It would seem that between national and local CCHD, the would-be facilitators of underage prostitution received $45,000 of Catholic grants, funded (at least in part) by your donations during that second collection in November.

Speaking of November, yet another CCHD pew shakedown is looming upon us. Once again, we are urging a total boycott of this collection. Instead, please give directly to a truly Catholic pro-life organization, such as Human Life International, American Life League, Priests for Life or a truly faithful religious order such as Marians of the Immaculate Conception or the Missionaries of Charity.

The effectiveness of the boycott is magnified greatly if you communicate to the "boycottee" why they are being boycotted. Please go to this blog's sister site and scroll down halfway to the "Boycott the CCHD" posting. Therein you'll find some flyers that you may wish to put in that second collection envelope in lieu of money. Also, please see this page from the Catholic Media Coalition to see more ways that the CCHD monies are used to undermine Catholic faith and morals in public life.


Now it's time for another guessing game. What was one major catastrophic result of the CCHD/ACORN collusion? Give up? Well, here's a hint!

Yes, indeed. The Messiah Most Miserable got his start in Chicago as a "community organizer" for Alinskyite organizations such as ACORN. Currently ACORN is under investigation in several localities for alleged voter fraud - fraud that most likely put into the White House a most dangerous occupant - for the unborn children, the vulnerable sick and elderly and Christian civilization at large.
