"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:

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.

Satanic Conference In Arizona Met By Faithful Catholics

Jesse Romero and the men of the American Society for the Defense of Tradition Family and Property launched a prayer effort outside the conference hotel to offer reparation for the blasphemous event happening there.  I have stood several times with the men of TFP and respect them highly for standing in the public square.  We all need to do that.  Please see the report below.

Alexander Tschugguel's Entire Address Here On Video

As promised yesterday, I post below the video of Mr. Tschugguel's talk given in Virginia this past Tuesday.  I made some preliminary remarks, and my blogging colleagues at Les Femmes, who also attended, issued their commentary.

Both Chriss and I, in our commentaries, mentioned that the establishment of a masonic "new world order" is the aim of progressives and their allies who have infiltrated our church, and even the papacy.  We saw this in the reports coming from the USCCB meeting in Baltimore this week.  The papal nuncio, Archbishop Christophe Pierre, ordered the US bishops to not only get themselves in line with the "magisterium of Pope Francis" but to ensure that we laity, we the Great Unwashed, fall lock-step in line.

The Les Femmes bloggers made mention of a favorite buzz-term of progressive Catholics: "social sin".  They are correct in their treatment of it.  One of the unspoken tenets of social sin is that personal sins, such as sins of the flesh, do not matter in their world view; neither do their resultant actions, especially the murder of babies.  They flat-out contradict Our Lady of Fatima, who told the children that more souls go to hell because of sins of the flesh than for any other reasons, but I digress.

A resolution was discussed Tuesday to emphasize the preeminince of pro-life voting in the bishops' voters' guide for the 2020 elections.  Cardinal Cupich called for a downplaying of that resolution and was backed by Archbishop Gomez (newly elected USCCB president) and Bishop McElroy.  They claimed that the downplaying was more in line with the "magisterium of Pope Francis".  They are factually correct about that.  Read the account here and watch the video; that such a matter was debated is its own disgrace.  The bishops voted and the stronger, more direct language was maintained.  However, 1/3 of the bishops, that is, 69 bishops, voted in support of Cupich's proposal.  As you can see in the article, they voted to emphasize the "social sin" hooey over actual truth.

By the way - Archbishop Gomez's election to the USCCB presidency is being hailed as a "historical vote" because he is the first Latino to occupy that position.  Yippee!  But here's an added reason why his election is "historical".  He's also the first one elected while under state investigation for alleged sex abuse coverup!  Double yippee!

One thing that must be emphasized that as this "magisterium of Pope Francis" makes its ugly presence felt, that we must be prepared to resist it when it does.  We must be prepared not to let abominations into our churches, be they idols, clowns, liturgical dancers, heresy from the pulpit.  Of course we will pay some hefty costs.  Are we prepared?

Alexander Tschugguel In Virginia

Last evening, November 12, I was fortunate to attend a presentation given by Alexander Tschugguel.  He is, of course, the young man who cleansed that church in Rome that had been polluted by the pachamama idols.  His talk was hosted by the Washington Bureau of the American Society for the Defense of Tradition, Family and Property.

Tschugguel explained his reasons for his actions and went into more of the underpinnings behind the Amazon Synod.  In brief, the synod was a step in the establishment of a one-world government that is, among other things, completely antithetical to Jesus Christ and His One True Church.  They are advancing their causes under the covers of environmentalism and borderless societies.  James Bascom, an official of the local TFP, made similar points in his remarks following Tschugguel's.

I recorded these two presentations and am in the midst of processing that footage.  I should be able to post the video by tomorrow.  The video was cut short simply because my camcorder battery was exhausted, but I believe the salient points were captured.  Please watch the entire thing.  What is discussed there is not just an interesting story of occurrences in Europe, but will have major impacts on your own parish.  At this very moment, the US bishops are conducting their semi-annnual meeting in Baltimore, and they are being strong-armed into implementing the pope's progressive goals.  Of course a goodly percentage of the bishops are on board with him anyway.  I will have more on that tomorrow when I publish the video.

More Faithful Catholics Fighting Rot Inside The Church - Update At Bottom

Last month faithful Catholics were instrumental in keeping the heretical Father James Martin from spewing his poison via "lenten reflections" at a New Jersey parish.  In two weeks, Martin will speak at Chicago's Holy Name Cathedral.  He is doing so at the express invitation of Cardinal Blaise Cupich.  Yes, he's the same Cardinal who made nice-nice with pro-abort Dick Durbin after Bishop Paprocki instructed his priests to obey Canon 915 if Durbin were to present himself for Holy Communion.

Again Catholics are raising their voices in Chicago.  The staunchly Catholic group Tradition, Family and Property will be spearheading a protest during his appearances.  Other faithful Catholics will be joining them.  The TFP is spearheading a prayer of reparation on account of  Martin's poisonous promulgations scheduled to happen at the University of Cincinnati on March 24.  Martin will be joined by gay-rights activist Sr. Jeannine Gramick, one of the two founders of New Ways Ministry; she was officially silenced for her dissent but defies that order to the detriment of her soul.

There are two other events that warrant the prayers and even protests of faithful Catholics in the U.S.  From CatholicHeraldUK we hear that Msgr Pio Vito Pinto, Dean of the Roman Rota, will be giving a "course" on matrimony and the family.  Pinto has cast slurs upon the dubia cardinals and favors giving Holy Communion to adulterers.  This will happen in the Diocese of Austin TX.  The course is mandatory for all clergy there.

On April 28th, gay ex-Jesuit Dan Schutte will be giving a concert at Our Lady of Visitation Catholic Church in Kansas City.  Tickets to this thing cost $20.00.  While that may not seem to be a lot to charge, bear in mind that it is a violation of canon law to demand money for any event held in a Catholic Church.  However, that is a minor issue compared with the scandal of a gay ex-priest being allowed to peddle his wares in a Catholic Church.  Schutte never overtly admitted his perversion.  Preferring to be coy about the matter, he declines to answer any questions, claiming that "it can affect how people experience the music itself".  Think about that for a minute.  If he were to state that he isn't gay, how could that adversely "affect how people experience the music"?  Answer - no way.  In trying to be cute and coy about the question, Schutte tipped his hand.  Now the real question is, what are the local Catholics going to do abut this planned travesty?

Similar questions may well be looming on the horizon for those of us in the Archdiocese of Washington.  In light of this "pastoral plan" to foist Amoralis Lamentia upon us, what will we do if we are ever subject to heresy spewing from the pulpits, gays being affirmed in their mortal sins, flagrant pro-aborts strutting up the Communion line, etc?  I'm hearing rumors of parishes preparing to go hog-wild over this. To my ADW readers: if you get wind of mischief afoot, please advise me and send documentation of the same (bulletins, handouts, etc) to Faithful Catholics of MD/DC, PO Box 2192, Montgomery Village, MD 20886.  Organize among yourselves and prepare to take action, such as the TFP group is doing.  By God's grace, we must stand in the gap - not only with prayer but with action.

UPDATE - Thanks again to Catholic action, the Schutte concert has been moved off Church grounds.  At least sacred property won't be profaned.  I don't think our concern should stop there.  Perhaps a rosary could happen outside the new venue.  Certainly we should be asking this National Association of Pastoral Musicians what motivates them to slobber after people like Schutte in the first place.

Today Georgetown Was Rebuked

Georgetown University went ahead with their honoring of Cecile Richards, President of Planned Parenthood - the nation's chief organization for the murder of babies.  Sadly we're not surprised but still it is just one more insult to Catholic education in this country.  As announced two days ago, there were several protest locations at Georgetown.  Today I was at two of them.

The first one was outside Lohrfink Auditorium itself.  Because I had to spend some time to find a parking place, I arrived there about 12:40 pm.  I could see that the Students for Life contingent was penned in an area where they could be seen from the attendees at a distance but there was no chance for interaction between those going into the talk and the pro-life activists.  I stood at the bottom of the steps and distributed my flyer (see right) - for as long as I was permitted.  After about 30 minutes a woman who identified herself to me as "Dean of Student Affairs" marched herself downstairs and ushered me to the "protest pen" (for lack of a better word).  Frankly I suspect the cause of this move is because my flyer did directly rebuke Georgetown for bringing Richards to campus.  I was able to distribute about 25 of them before I was effectively stifled.  I decided not to protest the move since I do respect the fact that Georgetown is private property.  Still, I find it fascinating that a woman who makes her living, at least in part, from the murders of babies is allowed to speak on campus but pro-life activists are penned off as though they pose dire threats to the students.

Just now, out of curiosity, I went to the web page of this "Student Affairs" office and got a clue as to the icy treatment that I received.  Not surprisingly, the page reeks of dissidence against Church teaching, to the point of possibly directing students - LGBTQ students, that is - to hell.   They have a whole "resource center" dedicated to them - something that I don't see for ethnic minorities, by the way.  This resource center boasts of being "the first such center of its kind at a Catholic/Jesuit institution in the country".  Well, whoopdie-doo!  If that's what Georgetown calls "brag material", no wonder their moral credibility is swirling down the crapper!  Ever hear of a "lavender graduation"?  Well look no further!  Georgetown is having one (next week, apparently).  The whole page is designed to make it easy for these poor deluded students to confirm their own damnation.  I seem to remember Our Lord talking about those who scandalize "little ones", saying it would be better for them had millstones been tied to them as they were tossed into water.  This reeks of satanic evil, but I digress.

After about 20 minutes or so in "the pen", I left there and headed east through the campus to where I was parked.  As I walked east, I continued to distribute flyers to students passing by me.  I then reached the eastern part of campus when I heard bagpipes.  I knew then that the American Society for Tradition, Family and Property was at the O Street entrance - where they were when we protested the appearance of Kathleen Sebelius four years ago.  Today the American TFP roundly rebuked Georgetown.  You'll hear it in the video below.

I know that Defend Life staged a protest along M Street; about 15 people held a "life chain" with signs to explain why Richard's appearance was such an atrocity.  I was unable to get down there but I await a report as to how that went.  Now here's the video of American TFP.

March For Marriage - Initial Report And Videos

I and many thousands attended the 2015 March For Marriage (spearheaded by National Organization for Marriage) this afternoon.  It was held on the Mall between the Washington Monument and the Capitol.  I took many shots but for now will feature only three of them.

It started with a rally which was well underway when we arrived.  You'll notice in the first video that I started recordin as we arrived that the Hispanics showed up in force.  I certainly commend them for that; I only regret that they put other Catholics to shame owing to their relative lack of appearance at the mall - particularly those Catholics in the local tri-state area.  To be honest, I know of only one parish in Maryland that gave the march the importance that it deserved.  Could it be that the presence of a same-sex "married" vice president of Catholic Relief Services may well have justified the lack of attention given to this important effort by many local Catholic pastors?

The second video shows the start of the march to the Supreme Court.  I'll have later shots of the march proper up in a day or so.  I commend the American Society for Tradition, Family and Property for lending their support to this effort.  These are the same men who have been leading the Marches for Life over these past many years.

Bishop Schneider's Talk Today In DC Archdiocese

As I announced last Monday, Bishop Athanasius Schneider spoke today at Annunciation Church in

The bishop autographing a copy of his book

Washington DC.  It was quite a turnout to hear His Excellency, as well there should have been.  Many thanks are due to both the Paulus Institute and the American Society for the Defense of Tradition, Family and Property (TFP) for organizing this event.  At this talk, copies of Bishop Schneider's book, Dominus Est, were on sale.  I procured a copy.  The book is his reflections on Holy Communion; his talk today dealt with the topic of Holy Communion and the Mass.

The organizers of the event had their own professional video recorder do the recording of the bishop's talk; they will advise me when it's posted to youtube.  At that time I'll link to it.  In the meantime, I present to you an audio-only recording that I took with my pocket-size Sony recorder.  I think it's clear enough for you to get the gist of this afternoon's discussion.  Not only may you listen, but you should be able to download this mp3 file.

Please pray for Bishop Schneider and all those who hold fast to the teachings of Jesus Christ, that they'll stand fast against the onslaught of the progressives in high places, even at the top of the Vatican.
