Open Invitation to Clear Creek Families, Most Precious Blood Families, and Everyone Throughout the Tulsa Diocese, Urban and Rural. And Beyond. To the New St. Athanasius Chapel Association, Tulsa Area. In Person or Online. Discussing The Idea of a Future Confederacy of Canonically Erected Traditional Catholic Chapels/Private Associations Across the Tulsa Diocese. And Beyond. As a Solution to the Current TLM Crisis. Here and Throughout the Universal Church

Clear Creek Area

Clear Creekers! I’m a lifelong practicing, believing Catholic born and raised in Broken Arrow outside of Tulsa, educated in Catholic schools, attending the TLM now for over 25 years. I’ve visited the monastery around 40-50 times since 2000, and was designated as a “Friend of the Monastery” by the monks beginning about 2005.

I imagine there are some of you who have braved the move to the Clear Creek monastery area who do not attend the Novus Ordo at Holy Cross in Wagoner the Sundays it is said in a moral traditional way than the TLM. The TLM decidedly not being made available there on a weekly basis. And the monastery not being meant as a public Association for laity on Sundays.

Current Direction in the Church

Likewise, I imagine there may be many people concerned about the current direction in the Church still under Pope Leo begun by Pope Francis, of phasing out the TLM, replacing it gradually with the Novus Ordo for us, perhaps at times dressed up in lace and Latin. Like many, we see Traditionis Custodes to be bringing an eventual complete end to the Mass of the Ages, and all of its patrimony, at least on a practical level. Even to be expected for the FSSP, Institute, or Clear Creek monks.

This same Invitation also applies to Catholics attending Most Precious Blood (FSSP) in Tulsa, who may be seeing stormy waters ahead for all the formerly Ecclesia Dei groups, or even a typhoon that brings them to an end.


The Whole Diocese

Also,, all Catholics throughout Tulsa and eastern Oklahoma are hereby Invited. I’m thinking of many in rural areas with no nearby Mass who can join us online to better keep Sundays holy. Or those minority unabashed pro-TLM, pro-Tradition Catholics “riding the back pew” of the Novus Ordo as I describe them, who bring their Sunday missals dressed in their Sunday best, with the women dressed in skirts or dresses and wearing the chapel veil or mantillas. The kind who frequent EWTN, Crisis magazine, or the Latin Mass Journal. People who if they had access would attend the TLM in a heartbeat.

Wherever you attend Mass in this Diocese, or when, you  invited to check out Info HERE and contact us for an invite to our private Association, to our Sunday afternoon Holy Hour and fellowship. To meet in person or connect online. To find out the meeting time, place, calendar schedule, plans for fellowship, online availability, etc.

St Athanasius Chapel. Diocese of Tulsa. A New Private Association of the Faithful. Dedicated to the Defense of Catholic Tradition and the Ancient Mass, and To Helping End the Crisis of Modernism and Liberalism, in the Wake of the Second Vatican Council

Attending Online

Given the 1 hour plus driving distance, perhaps consider joining our prayer group online at first through YouTube or Facebook Facetime video, once set up. And then you’ll have live access to the Holy Hour and fellowship online. And then at some point you can consider joining the private Association fully established according to canon law, meeting when you can in our House Chapel and that of other members.

I am floating different ideas. We are in Broken Arrow where Franciscan Villa nursing home, once under the Sisters of the Sorrowful Mother, still has a chapel with a tabernacle and the Blessed Sacrament reserved. They would likely allow us to pray in their chapel, and also visit Catholic residents there inviting them to join our Association, to bring them fully back to Catholic Tradition, like the ones raised with the TLM.

We do not want the TLM nor wider traditional Remnant in our local Church to be ended one day. Nor to allow the modernists and liberals to bring about this end. In anticipation of that very real possibility, we are organizing now.

Before it finally happens so there won’t be as much shock or disorientation what to do. But an extraordinary, pre-existing place and group with which to go seek refuge and peace of mind. Especially in light of recent developments in the Church this summer adverse to the Traditional Movement.

A Confederacy of Traditional Chapels

Hopefully one day that may mean 1) a private Traditional Chapel in the greater Tulsa area, 2) one in the area near Clear Creek monastery, and 3) others in rural areas. As in down the line beginning now, in the next years or decades. Until one day this Crisis comes to an end.

And with physical structures called Chapels built on private property, as allowed by canon law. A remnant of Catholics faithful to Tradition and seeking the total elimination of the Crisis of modernism and liberalism within the Mystical Body of Christ. First by removing ourselves as much as we can from those Errors.

Oasis

We start with the basic private Association organizing and meeting on a schedule, especially people joining in Online.

Then more formal House Chapels, more people meeting in person.

Then over time build private Chapels on private property.

Then at times in a way that is in accord with canon law, host a priest and the TLM.

All officially operating within the sphere of ordinary jurisdiction, as a canonical Association.

It could be a network that one TLM-offering priest could hypothetically serve in one Sunday. Say 9 am in the Tulsa area, 1 pm out by Clear Creek, and then 6 pm say down by Durant for example. Whatever are the circumstances. When such a priest is available.

In the spirit of the Catholic followers of the Father of Orthodoxy, St. Athanasius, who established House Chapels when most bishops were Arian, Semi-Arian, or leaned Arian. Or in the spirit of those Japanese Catholics who for 200 years without priests maintained the Faith in private House Chapels.

Our Association maintains the current Crisis is akin to that Arian period or worse, and that this is a legitimate pious and theological position to hold privately and to publicly express as a private Association.

A Confederacy of Traditional Catholic Private Associations and Private Chapels on private property across the Diocese of Tulsa, all fully established according to canon law, in full accord with and submission to our local Ordinary.

Imagine that.

This is one viable response in all dioceses, especially those without the TLM now or in the future.

To be relied on now as a supplement to the current situation, or for some the only viable option (ex: for the homebound, those without the Mass, those without a non-gravely compromised Mass, the sick, those in nursing homes, etc.). In the future, ready to be both a supplement or an alternative if/when the TLM is fully suppressed. And modernism gets worse.

All it takes is a little house altar prayer area and a social media feed. Invite friends, family, people you meet shopping or at the doctor’s office, anywhere. End with a potluck or coffee and dessert. Or go out to eat. Or just chat a while.

Be ready to give people a pamphlet or business card with info. Reach out beyond the diocese or even the US to anyone who in their local situation needs to be a part of such an Oasis of true peace, faith, hope, and charity. To help build it up!

Some might ask “Why not just set up your association as a Public Association or public Chapel? Directly under the SSPX?” Or under an Independent Traditional Priest?

Answer: per our founding theological positions, we state that as a formal private Association we do have informal friendship towards SSPX priests and like-minded priests. As well as all pro-TLM priests. We likewise maintain as a legitimate private and public position that the current Crisis in the Church stems from serious problems with Vatican II, the liturgical reform, certain orientations by the papacy, Vatican, and bishops, all problems of which intimately relate to doctrine and maintaining the true Faith. We maintain it is legitimate to theologically consider different theological analyses in understanding these serious problems.

However, the vast majority of traditional Catholics in this diocese have historically not formally affiliated with the SSPX, or with at the time the independent priest from Oklahoma City Fr. Graham Walters, for, in part, historical and geographic reasons. Whether or not we want to do so, or should, or would be justified in doing so, we predict this endeavor would therefore not work at this time in that kind of format or structure for practical reasons.

History of Latin Mass Movement: Tulsa Diocese

Also, the normal means to seek the TLM and Catholic Tradition as a whole naturally is through the bishop. We can do so while maintaining our legitimate, canonical positions, and the orientation to the Crisis that follows.

As carefully written.

If at any time the bishop should God forbid violate our canonical rights, in particular to privately and publicly maintain our theological positions, in any practical way that leads us to sin, or commands sin, compromises the Faith, or our own faith and spiritual lives, then that situation would more clearly demonstrate to local Catholics a kind of grave barrier between us and the bishop/chancery not created by us, such that we can discuss options when that occurs. Whether that is sooner or later. We would also consider at first canonical appeals and requests to meet with the bishop.

This is not the official position of our Association, as it currently exists, but it is my personal belief that because the Church is in a state of necessity and emergency, that supplied jurisdiction does exist. I’m sure the SSPX would be willing to serve the Tulsa Diocese again if the circumstances ever change. Time will tell as the situation in the Church and diocese unfolds.

** Disclaimer: other than the official positions of our Association and this Invitation, any views or positions expressed in this or other blog posts by me do not formally represent that of the canonical Association **

Will have more to say as time unfolds. I hear in a week or so temperatures fall here to Fall-like levels! Something to look forward to around the next bend.

You are not alone. Come join our little traditional Oasis to help keep the Faith of our Fathers!

God is merciful

St Athanasius Chapel. Diocese of Tulsa. A New Private Association of the Faithful. Dedicated to the Defense of Catholic Tradition and the Ancient Mass, and To Helping End the Crisis of Modernism and Liberalism, in the Wake of the Second Vatican Council

A Future Traditional Catholic Oasis

About

We are a new canonically established Traditional Catholic Association. Canon law does not require the bishop’s approval, nor require nor even permit direct management of the group by the bishop as a private association of the faithful, nor for a privately owned chapel. Yet we remain of course subordinate to the local Ordinary, His Excellency Bishop David Konderla. For whom we pray.

We are an official, canonically erected refuge and an oasis from the modernist, liberal, and pseudo-Protestant mainstream of the modern post-Vatican II Church, including unfortunately within our own diocese. 

We are a means to keep Sunday holy when there is no access to the traditional Catholic Mass, or to another Mass and its liturgical setting being free of spiritual, liturgical, doctrinal, or moral impediments to attendance, as taught by traditional approved theologians.

Or even to also better keep the day holy after attending Sunday morning Mass, with a fellowship of more like-minded, concerned, forward-thinking, unabashed traditional Catholics in the afternoon.

*** Disclaimer, while I share this on my blog, my writings and views I express here do not necessarily represent the positions of this Association which is a separate entity. ***

What We Do

In a private family chapel setting, we pray the rosary, what the Church calls the “dry Mass,” that is the Mass prayers without a priest or consecration, make a Spiritual Communion, sing Gregorian chant hymns, at times watch online Conferences, seek the support of pro-Latin Mass priests, themselves possibly as private members of our Association, also allowed by canon law without needing episcopal approval. Even including a friendship with the priests of the Society of St. Pius X and like-minded traditional priests. Also to have Catholic fellowship, expand our apostolate, and help with evangelization through works of charity, aka Catholic Action. Especially to the poor, sick, disabled, hospitalized, jailed, homebound, or in nursing homes.

Since Catholics are permitted to attend SSPX Masses, and to fulfill their Sunday obligation by doing so, and receive the sacraments from SSPX priests, and provide material assistance to help make that whole endeavor possible, without any narrow, strict, canonical limiting of what that material assistance is, according to the Vatican to date, this then would include making one’s private property available for this purpose, to enable you and others to attend it, owned by a member of our Private Association, or by someone else.

The Association itself, as distinct from the physical private building itself, in accord with canon law and the ordinary jurisdiction of the local bishop, is not formally established as a public parish or public church community, nor itself as a habitual social setting for Mass. Even though materially we as private individuals are canonically permitted to offer the use of our private property for an SSPX Mass, or a Mass offered by a priest with ordinary jurisdiction, ordinary faculties, and permission of the diocesan bishop to offer the Mass.

Distinction of Terms

“St. Athanasius Chapel” = the privately owned private building and space for prayer, etc. Used by a private family, this Association, and others outside of the Association. Also, this is an informal term for the Association itself, for practical purposes.

“St. Athanasius Private Association of the Faithful” = the group of individuals, either meeting at “St. Athanasius Chapel” or elsewhere.


Affiliated Priests

Other pro-Tradition priests may join as members whether locally or remotely, offering at times general advise and support about organizing efforts, private spiritual direction, and spiritual or catechetical conferences which do not require chancery approval. This does not establish them formally as pastor over the group.

Officially speaking, Masses are offered at the private building reserved for prayer that is a private chapel, itself called “St. Athanasius Chapel.”

On the other hand “St. Athanasius Chapel Private Association of the Faithful” is distinct from the private property itself, not formally itself as an Association of the Church formally hosting itself habitual Masses. Formally, it is the host family itself which may enable habitual Masses in their private chapel in the sense described above. This is in part because we may meet outside of the private property chapel on official church property.

When and Where Are the Meetings

We will meet either every Sunday, on occasion on some Sundays, or only at special times throughout the year on a Sunday, to be considered and discussed depending on our circumstances. At each others’ homes, or in a group video conference online, or perhaps at times at official diocesan churches or chapels.

In the afternoon, after local Sunday morning Masses. Other possible sites could include the cathedral outside of their Mass schedule, the main chapel at St. John’s hospital, the chapel at St. Francis Hospital South, the chapel at Calvary cemetery, or similar. Fellowship may be a group potluck, coffee and dessert, or going out to eat afterwards.

And especially a time for spiritual encouragement and serious religious discussion about the Faith, the traditional movement, and the Crisis in the Church.

Hopefully in the future a private traditional chapel can be built on private property, in the tradition of estate chapels in Europe. This is not a formal canonical parish, nor do we formally as an Association advise about where to attend Mass on Sunday mornings before our Sunday afternoon meetings. Each person or family decides this on their own.

Our Theological Positions:

1. It is a legitimate pious belief that there are serious problems with Vatican II and in certain of its pastoral statements and changes, the Novus Ordo Mass in its design, rubrics, prayers, and common way of being done, the overall conciliar reform, and certain orientations from the Vatican and Bishops in general.

Which we must and have a right to publicly address, per Canon 212, and to pray the Church will one day address and resolve. By clearly and finally correcting the Errors of the conciliar period in clear and constant continuity with Catholic Tradition. Especially with regards to religious liberty, ecumenism, collegiality, and the liturgical reform.

As laity, it is our right and duty to encourage our pastors to fulfill their duties to the Church, to uphold and transmit Tradition, and to resolve this Crisis.

2.  We seek the full and universal restoration of the Traditional Latin Mass (TLM), as the proper canonical form of the Roman rite, as already definitively established by Pope St. Pius V, and all the customs, spirituality, theology, and patrimony that is associated with it.

3. It is a legitimate pious belief that the Church is in a grave state of necessity and emergency for us to act in extraordinary ways to help preserve the Faith for the Church and our families, including forming traditional Catholic Private Associations of the Faithful like this.

4.  Pope Paul VI did not suppress the Latin Mass when promulgating the Novus Ordo, nor issue a document of equal weight to Pope St. Pius V overturning his establishment of the Tridentine missal as the official, codified Roman rite of Mass. Therefore, it is a legitimate pious belief that Quo Primum and Immemorial Tradition still have authority, and permit the offering of the Latin Mass, and that it is our birthright as Roman rite Catholics.

5.  That said, any future blessings or permissions from our Bishop for certain activities, or conversely God forbid any adverse action, cannot be contingent on us abandoning these canonically legitimate theological public positions, or remaining silent, based on our canonical and spiritual rights.

Planning for the Future

We expect that, per the document Traditionis Custodes, the Vatican will eventually end all Latin Masses everywhere, including at the FSSP parish, Holy Cross parish in Wagoner, and at Clear Creek Abbey. This Association will then be a canonically legitimate local refuge during that period and into the future, and for those now anticipating the suppression.

Likewise, we hope this endeavor serves as a good example for traditional Catholics around the world to consider in their diocese as needed.

For More Information

For more information, including about meeting times, or potential future Masses as specifically described above, please email, call, or text us. We will ask in a brief and friendly manner if you are a Catholic, orthodox, in good standing, agree with our theological positions and purposes or at least are okay with them, and if you are associated with any organization in the diocese.

Non-Catholics or fallen away Catholics can attend our private prayer meetings after the private inquiry and introduction process, in keeping with our clear canonical status as a private association of the faithful.

As we are brand new, we begin with me and my wife. We can still in the future discuss the chapel association, name, written statutes, officers, goals, and other details. And reach out to priests for some level of support. As time goes by, we pray this Association grows, and we will continue to promote it as long as we live in the Diocese of Tulsa.

Every Action Has an Equal and Opposite Reaction. A New Confederation of Traditional Catholic Chapels. In the Tulsa Diocese and Beyond

Leo The Merciful Unifier

"Drop Nuclear Bomb on the SSPX

Drop Nuclear  Bomb on Catholics Praying the TLM is Restored 

Now Witness the Fire Power Of This Battle Station."

Introduction 

It is simple physics.  Since Leo falsely excommunicated the entire SSPX, 700,000 people, not even in accord with canon law, for keeping the Faith, then THEY are in material schism from us.  Therefore, we will act accordingly as if there is a material schism or WALL they caused and erected.  

As in carry on as we have under supplied jurisdiction until one day they show signs of wanting honest doctrinal discussions and to resolve the doctrinal and liturgical crisis in a just and charitable way.  

In turn, since Leo has now determined Traditionis Custodes is here to stay, then per TC ALL trads will be bridged to the Novus Ordo.  FSSP and Institute priests must decide beforehand if they will submit to a wrecking of the TLM and to say the Novus Ordo. 

They can’t.  And I think most won’t.  It will mean being suppressed or self-dissolving.  

How to Respond to The Great Purge

As The Great Purge of Tradition and the TLM continues, one day those who are truly traditional Catholic will end up making the drive to the SSPX, or will begin now planning and starting new local traditional Catholic chapels/associations, as under the SSPX.   

Or simply independent.  Which is more realistic for the majority, since for most an SSPX chapel isn’t within driving distance on a Sunday, and there is already a long waiting list of groups waiting for an SSPX priest to be available.  

Yet, if you ALREADY form a group, I’m confident the SSPX would look after you at least remotely on some level until a priest can come one day.    

Like this dedicated priest:

Zooming out a bit on the timeline, WE ARE PRACTICALLY ALREADY THERE.  The new landlord has made his policy known. The FSSP and Institute priests will practically never catechize about the problems of V2, the Novus Ordo, etc from the pulpit or in a conference. 

The SSPX do, and there is plenty online.  Or at Angelus Press.  

LINK TO RESOURCES

Therefore, Leo dropping TWO NUCLEAR BOMBS on the Traditional Movement, all inside of last month, July, 2026, must have an EQUAL AND OPPOSITE REACTION.  

It is a matter of physics.  

Join the SSPX now, OR if too far away START NOW organizing traditionalist prayer and study groups distinct from the parish, to eventually form Traditional Catholic Chapels.  At the very least in the initial stages.  

Where to Begin 

As 70% of the traditional movement are Catholics now with no access to the TLM, who once did have access to it under Summorum Pontificum, before 2021, this Network can especially begin with them.  As the Vatican modernists start to crush brick by brick the formerly Ecclesia Dei groups, this Network takes the initiative to form a prayer/study group in each diocese emerging into a new traditional Catholic chapel, in which the new religion, or Ape of the Church, as founded upon the conciliar and post-conciliar errors, is officially outright rejected, as are the errors themselves.  

The SSPX may not be able to adequately at first serve this new Network as it exponentially grows beyond priest availability. But I’m certain they would maintain contact and assistance the best they can, even if just giving general advise about praying on Sunday as a group if no priest is present, and answering people’s emails giving general spiritual support.  

There will no doubt be a growing network of independent priests like the SSPX who were kicked out of their diocese for coming to the stance they could no longer say the new Mass or hold their tongue about the V2 Crisis.  

There will need to be networks of independent traditional priests with Mass circuits like once were very alive and active.  For example, Fr. Gommar DePauw once organized a network of traditional priest Mass circuits in the U.S. he called the “Catholic Traditionalist Movement.”  He got started even before Archbishop Lefebvre.  

The Remnant and Supplied Jurisdiction

Imagine a circle A encompassing a circle B.  Circle B is the diocese and bishop with ordinary jurisdiction.  

Circle A is the fully uncompromised traditional movement, especially after The Great Purge, operating under supplied jurisdiction.  Both are through canon law the juridical Church, but Circle A is that extraordinary zone of the juridical Church that serves as an oasis and zone of retreat.  

NOT a zone of breaking with authority or schism.  Not from us, on our end.  

And as a bishops’ residence and chancery is typically within a major city, then it seems very appropriate and symbolic to build these future independent traditional Catholic chapels, especially as rose up in the 1970’s and 1980’s, some which still exist, just outside of city limits, out in the countryside.  This would symbolize operating under a state of necessity and supplied jurisdiction as in circle A, on the outskirts of circle B, the official chancery and the bishop.  

We pray for the bishop and maintain canonical, juridical unity with him the best the Crisis will allow, but he must himself ensure permanently our birthright, the ancient Mass, or the true Mass, and for us to maintain our traditionalist critique of what is plainly obvious.  The ecclesiastical gaslighting must first overtly end with amends taken before any normalcy is even considered to be restored.  

For example, say you begin with a few families, you call your group St. Athanasius Chapel, buy some land, buy a couple long mobile homes and adjoin them, add a steeple, and an outdoor sign with Sunday meeting times.  Start a website and Facebook group.   If you have the money, market it. 

When a priest is unavailable, and at first that might mean for long stretches of time (just think of the time Japanese Catholics had no priests) begin with the rosary, hymn, pray together the Mass using your Sunday missals, sing the major parts in chant, possibly follow online a live Mass feed or a pre-recorded Mass CD, or not, make a spiritual act of communion.   Then a potluck and games for kids.  

Then on occasion a catechism class that is usually watching a pre-recorded video conference by a traditional priest.  Or one that is set up remotely with Father teaching live.  Over time add organizations and charitable works.  Once a year write the bishop renewing your invitation for doctrinal discussions, and hopes he will end the modernist Crisis that has taken over the local Church.  

Our Response to Their Final Nuclear War on Tradition 

THIS and the like should be OUR PROPORTIONAL response to THEIR NUCLEAR war against us and the Catholic Faith.  Going forward.  Without hesitance or delay.  No more wishful thinking they’ll ease TLM restrictions or let the FSSP/Institute/Etc continue as is permanently.  

Not true disobedience nor schism.  Nor false, blind obedience.  Not Revolution nor cruelty.   Not THEIR way.  

But rather true obedience to God and the Faith, reasoned counter-revolution efforts, and acts of faith, hope, and charity.  THAT is the Catholic response.  

For the Tulsa Diocese 

Start now questioning the FSSP priests at coffee and doughnuts and send letters to the District Superior what they will do when forced to adopt the new calendar, the vernacular, say the new Mass, etc.  Predict based on gauged responses.  And then start planning.  

Is there any legal chance the MPB property can be legally held by the group instead of the chancery, and if so consider when it becomes warranted to invite the SSPX back to Tulsa to serve MPB?  It’s worth asking.  

I can say here as former treasurer in Tulsa, when there was an SSPX chapel, there were certain substantial reserved resources set aside for the Tulsa area if the SSPX is ever able to return.  If (?) they are still in reserve, that could be enough to start up the double wide mobile home chapel idea I mentioned, inspired by the original SSPX chapel in the Tulsa diocese, in north Broken Arrow. There are creative solutions.  In accordance with canon law.  

For the Clear Creek Abbey Families:

I have no doubt The Great Purge of the Francis 2.0 Reign of Terror will not allow any exception to the eventual complete ban of the ancient Mass.  Anywhere.  But, per TC itself, there might be a loophole.  Establish the TLM outside of Holy Cross property, allowed by TC, in Wagoner or back out near Clear Creek.  But that is a dead end, because per TC even TLM’s outside of parish settings will be brought to an end.   

That would leave starting a new independent chapel out there or driving to a new post-MPB chapel in Tulsa post-The Great Purge.  

For everyone reading this who anywhere in the world is or might one day find yourself in this predicament, please consider helping to organize this Network locally and beyond.  Based on foresight and an ironclad faith that refuses to compromise even Iota Unum, that is “one iota” of the Catholic Faith of 2000 years.  

On any point of doctrine on faith or morals (and that applies to the doctrinal foundation of all disciplines, liturgical and otherwise) that has been believed “always, everywhere, and by all" (St. Vincent of Lerins, Early Church Father).

Regarding the Chancery 

If the Chancery is reading this, know that we are NOT promoting schism, but rather the Vatican itself is causing what openly appears on our end to be schism.  The material schism and great apostasy in Rome emanates from the Vatican outwards, to all dioceses, BREAKING with 2000 years of Catholic Tradition (divine and ecclesial together).  

We are simply holding fast to Tradition pushed outward towards and into Circle A (see above).  We have not turned our backs on you and the universal Church, but rather you yourselves in 1000 + ways have pushed us back into this state of reserve and retreat.    

What I am advocating is literally what the SSPX has advocated for since the 1970’s and for which it continues to rightfully advocate due to a state of necessity and emergency.  Leo/Fernandez refused bilateral discussions in February, 2026. And Leo refused to even meet with the SSPX.  The ONLY legal document of excommunication is the Decree not applied to the priests or laity, despite everyone being otherwise deceived it does.  

And here in this blog I have posted recently HERE how the chancery repeatedly refused to communicate with us about our Profession of Faith and request to be evaluated, as lifelong devoted Catholics, violating canonical process. After many emails and phone calls.  STILL TO THIS DAY.  So if there is any canonical retaliation to my proposals here, that gets evaluated in totality of all the recent facts and pubic evidence, I will ask for a canon lawyer, and appeal presenting all evidence.  I’m prepared for that.  

And to blog about it, if it comes to it.

In the meantime, I am willing to suffer persecutions like this in the future, there being a tiny few who know how representatives of the diocese have unjustly retaliated many times in part because of this blog, and because of my reasonable criticisms in defense of the Faith. 

I will not stop defending the traditional Catholic Faith and Church until either this Crisis ends, or I die.
