Is the Church's Ultimate Trial Unfolding Before our Eyes?

"Observing that the bishops and, above all, the successor of Peter fail to maintain and transmit faithfully and in unity the deposit of faith contained in Sacred Tradition and Sacred Scripture, 
I cannot help but think of Article 675 of the Catechism of the Catholic Church."

Only this specific type of relationship—marriage—is permissible to engage in sexual activity, according to the Catholic Church's doctrine. The union of a man and a woman is referred to as marriage.

NOVENA FOR OUR NATION – ST. MICHAEL’S LENT PRAYERS FOR PROTECTION AND REPARATION Just found out about  St .  Michael's Lent , a 40 day period of fasting from the Feast of the Assumption (August 15) to Michaelmas (September 29). I wish I had known this ahead of time to prepare, but it's not too late to start. This is what Brother Thomas was talking about from one of our previous meetings during lent. You don't have to do this but I highly recommend participating on  St Michael's Lent  - seeing what's going on within the church getting infiltrated by evil.  Might be a good time to ask St. Michael to destroy the demons in the Church. St Michael pray for us! St Michael, defend us in battle! Protect our families and our Church!
