Father Kalchik Leaves Resurrection In Face Of Serious Threats - CALL TO ACTION

On Thursday I wrote of the situation concerning Father Paul Kalchik, a faithful priest in the Archcioese of Chicago.  I suggested action in that post.  If you haven't done so, I suggest you do it now, but first read this important update.

From One Peter Five we read that Father Kalchik was preparing to celebrate a wedding when Auxiliary Bishop Mark Bartosic barged in unannounced as Kalchik was vesting for the wedding. Bartosic told Kalchik he had minutes to vacate the parish or else he'd be arrested for "trespassing".  Kalchik did so.  Bartosic was at least good enough to celebrate the wedding and not leave the couple high and dry.

Kalchik left with his brother who was visiting him.  At least we know he is safe for now.  The other day two representatives, Father Jeremy Thomas and Msgr Dennis Lyle (the latter played a role in ousting Fr Frank Phillips, the faithful pastor of St John Cantius) told Kalchik not only to vacate, but to "commit himself to psychiatric confinement".  In other words, he was to submit to brainwashing.  Addendum: In the course of that conversation, Kalchik told the two vicars that he was needed in the parish to say morning Mass.  They replied, "what would happen if you were dead"?  In other words, they threatened his life!

Mahound's Paradise gives us more history behind the gay flag and how it stemmed from the perversions of the previous pastor, who was a flaming gay.  Be warned, some of that history is rather gruesome.

I now link to Resurrection's bulletin for this weekend.  Therein Father Kalchik gave his account of the flag-burning.  I downloaded it and suggest you do the same, for the archdiocese will undoubtedly take it offline.

PLEASE TAKE ACTION - If anyone contents themselves with prayer but refuses to take action, such prayer is useless.  Call Cupich's office (again, for some) at 1-312-534-8200 and rebuke him for his ouster of Kalchik and his demand that Kalchik submit to draconian brainwashing.  Call that same number, search for Bartosic's and Lyle's names and offer them some stern rebukes.  You may have to leave voicemails, but that's ok.  Leave messages on Resurrection's site.  Those of you in the Chicago archdiocese should announce immediately your financial boycotts until Cupich apologizes to Kalchik (and Father Phillips, for that matter) and cleans up his act.

Let's Rebuke Cupich NOW!

This past Saturday I touched upon Cardinal Cupich and his malevolence to one of his priests who is actually acting to expunge evil from his parish.  The flag-burning did occur, with Father Kalchik's participation.  Apparently this symbol of sodomy was used by the late Cardinal Bernardin (surprise!).  It was hung so that it blocked the hand-carved Crucifix over the altar; see the PJ Media article for a depiction of the sacrilege.

I called for a phone and email blast of the Chicago chancery over the treatment that Cupich is inflicting on Father Kalchik.  Some replied that perhaps Cupich just didn't want a media spectacle.  To that I say, "too bad"!  Where is Cupich's concern about "spectacle" when Father Michael Pfleger acts up?  And is he really having cold feet because he doesn't want a spectacle, or is he just doing the bidding of his gay-mafia puppet masters and sugar daddies?  Should the Apostles have stopped preaching the gospel because of "spectacle"?  Read in Acts how Peter and John responded to very similar demands by the sanhedran.

Speaking of faithful priests persecuted by dissident bishops, I post now an interview that Father Marcel Guarnizo gave to HotAir.com. His segment starts in the middle of the clip so you can just move the button to the middle; where his picture appears is the beginning.  Father Guarnizo rightly states that the bishops are indeed the source of the problems AND that the laity must act to rectify the matter.  Yes, we must pray, but we must also act.  Too often faithful Catholics have been way too reticent when it comes to speaking out.  What is the source of that?  Timidity? False humility?  Whatever it is, we must overcome these obstacles, for if we don't, our prayer will be hamstrung, if not outright nullified.

With that in mind, we can start by protesting Cupich's draconian and vindictive treatment of Father Kalchik.  Here is the contact information for the Archdiocese of Chicago.  Call the first number 1-312-534-8200.  Then follow the "search by name" prompts for Cupich's office.  You will get his secretary.  Voice your displeasure politely but sternly.  The gay cartel have these campaigns down to an art and we must best them at that.  I called this afternoon, and I hope that many more will call.  Spread the word.
