☩ PRAEDICATIO ☩ by THE ☩ TRUMPET [Slightly adapted and reformatted] | October 28, 2024
Today, the message is unmistakable: Catholics face an uncompromising choice between fidelity to Christ the King or complicity with a world descending into godlessness. Modern governments wage war on faith and life itself, mocking Christ’s rightful kingship and promoting laws that enshrine the killing of the innocent. As Catholics, we stand in a political landscape where both Trump and Harris champion abortion in one form or another—whether pushing for unrestricted access to abortion pills or expanding it through legislative loopholes. There is no choice here for a faithful Catholic, no "lesser evil" to cling to. Voting for either is, in effect, voting for the continued slaughter of innocents.
Rooted in Catholic tradition and the undeniable truth of the Gospel, this sermon pulls no punches: Catholics cannot sell their souls in the voting booth. In the words of Pope Pius XI, Christ reigns not only in hearts but in laws, institutions, and societies. We must heed this call for Catholic integrity, rejecting political systems that defy God’s law. Now more than ever, we need the reign of Christ and the Immaculate Heart of Mary—our only path to true peace and salvation in a culture bent on self-destruction. Stand with Christ the King, or face the inevitable judgment of those who choose to stand against Him.

Today is the feast of our Lord Jesus Christ the King.
The Epistle is taken from Saint Paul's letter to the Colossians chapter 1.
Brethren, we give thanks to God the Father, who has made us worthy to be partakers of the lot of the saints in light, who has delivered us from the power of darkness and has translated us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, in whom we have redemption through His blood, the remission of sins, who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature, for in Him were all things created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominations or principalities or powers, all things were created by Him and in Him, and He is before all, and by Him all things consist, and He is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things He may hold the primacy, because in Him it has well pleased the Father that all fullness should dwell, and through Him to reconcile all things unto Himself, making peace through the blood of His cross, both as to the things that are on earth and the things that are in heaven, in Christ Jesus our Lord.
The Holy Gospel From Saint John chapter 18.
At that time Pilate said to Jesus, Are thou the king of the Jews? Jesus answered, Sayest thou this thing of thyself, or have others told it thee of me? Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thy own nation and the chief priests have delivered thee up to me. What hast thou done? Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would certainly strive that I should not be delivered to the Jews. But now my kingdom is not from hence. Pilate therefore said to him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest it, I am a king. For this was I born, and for this came I into the world, that I should give testimony to the truth. Everyone that is of the truth heareth my voice.
Thus are the words of the Holy Gospel.
You'll find at the entrance The Recusant copies available for Autumn Issue Number 62. There's some very good articles, especially the conference of Archbishop Lefebvre against the liberalism, and he speaks of the reign of Christ the King. It's so very fitting for this feast.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, the Holy Ghost. Amen. We adore Jesus Christ the King.
He is King, why? Because of the Hypostatic Union. We learned that in the Catechism. What is the Hypostatic Union? [It] is the Divine Person of the Son, assuming, taking up to Himself the human nature, that God became flesh for us, so that we could say the person of Jesus Christ is not the person of, it's not a human person, he's the person of God.
We are all human persons. You all have a personality, and the essence of a person which makes up who you are, but it's all the human nature. But our Lord Jesus Christ, His Person is not human.
It is the Divine person. His nature is human, but his Person is one with the Father and the Holy Ghost from all eternity. And that's why Saint John the Baptist will say of Christ, 'His coming forth is from the days of eternity.'
And Daniel the prophet will say 'His days are from before time, before eternity.' And in this Mass, all throughout this Mass of Christ the King, you have these constant references to the Eternal Kingship of Jesus Christ. Look at the intro to Apocalypse 5. 'The Lamb that was slain is worthy to receive power and divinity and wisdom and strength and honor.
To him be glory and empire forever and ever. Now remember, the Muslims deny that God can die, and God in his divinity cannot die. But they reject that Christ is God.'
But this refutes the Muslim errors that Christ truly was the Lamb, and he truly died. And in the book of Apocalypse also, our Lord says, "I am the Alpha and the Omega, who was dead, but now liveth." So Christ did die.
And that's the only way God could die for us, was to take on human flesh. It was truly an invention of love, an invention of the solution to the worst of all problems, which was how to restore the human race that had fallen from the Fall of Adam and Eve. And the sin of Adam shut the gates of heaven.
So how is it possible, since it takes blood to wash away sins, how would heaven ever be open again? And the answer was within the Holy Trinity. And it says this in the Psalms, "And the Son said to the Father, The Lord said to my Lord, I am this day I have begotten thee. You are my Son.'
And the Son says to the Father, 'Holocausts and oblations You didn't want,' the sacrifice of the Old Testament, animals, bulls being slaughtered, the sprinkling of the blood of the lambs, the lambs being roasted, 'sacrifice and oblation You didn't want.' And then I said, 'Then said I,' says God the Son, 'I will come, Ecce Venio, behold, I will come.' I will take on the human nature.
And this will solve all the problems. Because if I take on the human nature, then the blood can be spilled and man can be redeemed. And our Lord could easily have miraculously taken on a human flesh, miraculously arranged His death and work the Redemption.
He could have done that without any cooperation of anybody else. But notice our Lord loves to recruit helpers, co-redeemers in His work. He could hear your confessions today. Just come down from heaven and sit in the confessional. [He] will absolve your sins. He could come down from heaven and offer the Mass.
He could easily do it. And He did it, actually, in the convent of St. Gertrude many years ago when they had no Mass and no priest. And then Christ himself came and said Mass. So He could do that. And He could do it all over the world, by bilocation. No problem for Him.
But He has chosen to recruit priests, poor, weak clay to be consecrated, excuse me, to be ordained and bishops consecrated to offer the Sacrifice of the Mass, which is the same Sacrifice of Calvary. And so Our Lord, to work the Redemption, He was honored to have a Co-redemptrix, a Mediatrix, which would be the role of the Blessed Virgin Mary. So as St. Louis de Montfort said, 'God came to us through Mary.' He wants us to come to Him through Mary, through Her immaculate heart. That is God's desire, to bring the true peace in the world. But the modern world doesn't want the peace of God.
Ever since the French Revolution, especially, was the beginning of the war of the Freemasonic Lodges and the conspiracies of Satan to wage war against Jesus Christ, the King. How do we get rid of Christ the King? We have to attack His name, remove Him from the governments, therefore secular governments. And that's why the Freemasons, as Pope after Pope after Pope, Pius VI, Pius VII, Pope Leo XIII, Pius IX, Pius X, Pius XI even, who had the solution in his hands [condemned Freemasonry]. Pius XI was given the solution by the Virgin Mary to consecrate Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. He had more interest in solving things through the League of Nations. Unfortunately, Pope Pius XI, he had already had high hopes for the League of Nations, which we call now the United Nations, and which Pope Paul VI would say to the United Nations in his address to them, 'You are the last hope of mankind.' Imagine that, a Pope saying that to a whole bunch of scoundrels and degenerates and enemies of Jesus Christ. 'You are the last hope of mankind.' Very, very sad.
So, Pope after Pope has reminded the whole world and especially leaders of countries and the leader prelates of the church, preach the kingship of Jesus Christ, proclaim his kingship. Listen to Pope Pius XI speaking of this. Christ as our Redeemer, this is from Quas Primas, Pope Pius XI on the Kingship of Christ.
Christ as Our Redeemer purchased the Church at the price of His own blood. As priest, He offered Himself and continues to offer Himself as a victim for our sins. Is it not evident then that His kingly dignity partakes in a manner of both these offices? It would be a grave error, on the other hand, to say that Christ has no authority whatever in civil affairs, since by virtue of the absolute empire over all creatures committed to him by the Father, all things are in His power.
And this is what St. Paul just said in this epistle, a very beautiful adoration and glory given to Jesus Christ, 'Through him all things are made, by him all things are made, in him all things consist.' Everything was made by Jesus Christ to the tiniest cell, to the biggest mountain. All the galaxies were in the mind of Jesus Christ and He created them with the Father and the Holy Ghost at the beginning, the Six Days of Creation, not 60 million years, six days of creation. And then Our Divine Lord, 'He is King,' says St. Paul, 'over again of all things visible and invisible.' And then he goes [thru] the hierarchies of Angels, whether of Thrones or Dominations or Principalities or Powers.
All things were created by Him and in Him. So as St. Augustine would say, 'All creation is a wonderful garden created for the glory of Jesus Christ the King. All is for His glory and all will give Him glory.'
We often wonder, well, how can this be since so many men hate Christ and so many men attack him and so many governments dethrone him? And it looks like the enemies of the Church are strangling our Catholic Church. And all governments today have become the last bastion, for example, to defend pro-life, to defend children and to stand against abortion. The last in the modern world was the United States.
It used to be you had a choice between all these rotten candidates who were for abortion, but there was used to always be at least one who was pro-life. And then all the priests and even the Novus Ordo bishops said, 'Don't vote for that one, vote for [the pro-life candidate] because he's pro-life.' And even Protestants say, 'Don't vote for that one, vote for him because he's pro-life.' But now we've come, we have become so degenerate that we have fallen. America has fallen. America has fallen hard and it's been overtaken and it's now in the hands of the enemies of Jesus Christ.
And now there is no option. It's just pro-abortion or pro-abortion. [As] there were centuries before Christ came, where they sacrificed children. That was normal policy in pagan countries. Even the Aztecs, this was what shocked the Spaniards when they arrived in Mexico, there was human sacrifice everywhere.
It was a continuation of that pre-Christian era, the Old Testament sacrifices, the Amorites who killed their children, the Canaanites, the Phoenicians, the Carthaginians. And sometimes the Jews would jump in there and adopt the practices of the pagans and start marrying their girls who were pagan. And their girls would lead them into the pagan religions.
And so they would sacrifice their babies. Jeremiah the Prophet thunders against this and he speaks of the valley of Tophet. In the valley of Tophet, Tophet in Hebrew means the Valley of the Drums because the pagans would pound the drums with pounding rock music as they sacrificed the babies and threw them into the fire to [honor] Baal or Moloch.
And the little babies, of course, fighting for their life, they'd be screaming. So to drown out the screams of the babies and drown out their wicked consciences, they would pound the drums. And the same thing's going on today.
How many going to drive into the Planned Parenthood are driving pounding rock music as they drive into the parking lot to drown their conscience from what they're about to do? And the young lady goes in with her boyfriend and sometimes even their own father. Imagine that. Walk into Planned Parenthood and they get all set up for the procedure, as they nicely call it. And notice, of course, the room is there's no germs. They make sure it's all antiseptic and there's no bugs that they can catch. Everything is clean to work the most disgusting and foul murder abortion.
And this practice of infanticide and child killing always shows up when a society becomes pagan. Marks of paganism is body piercing, tattoos all over the place. These are all signs of paganism and degeneracy.
And then, of course, all the sins that come with it, as St. Paul lists, 'disobedience to parents, rebellion, pride, lack of respect for the elder people.' All this is going. And we are back to killing our own babies.
And if you can kill your own baby, you can kill anybody. Nobody respects anything. And that's where we're at. We Americans. And we're in this position where, who do you vote for? Who do you vote for?
Listen to what happened in 1902. In 1902, there was a huge volcano that erupted on the island of Martinique, the French Caribbean island of Martinique [and its major city, St. Pierre]. [St. Pierre, which was a bustling port city and a significant commercial hub in the Caribbean. The city was known as “the Paris of the Antilles” due to its fine architecture, paved streets, and electricity.]
In 1902, it was it's still claimed to be the worst volcanic eruption, even more severe than Mount St. Helens, in 1902 [on Mount Pelée]. What was going on? There was a governor there, Governor Louis Mouttet, was his name. And they were having elections.
And the Freemasons were putting out all of the newspapers all about the elections coming up. And there were rumblings coming from the mountain. Mount Pelée was the name of the mountain, Mount Pelée.
There were strange signs. There were some earthquakes. And then the town below, St. Pierre, many snakes, poisonous snakes started coming down from the mountain because they knew something was coming. And centipedes, big, huge centipedes, a foot long started invading people's homes and backyards. Ants everywhere, termites, even the horses were rearing up and acting strange and agitated.
But the candidates for the election were telling everybody there's nothing to worry about.
And then more earthquakes started to rumble on Mount Pelée. The governor, Louis Mouttet, ordered voters who started to flee the city and planning to leave and fill the boats and get out get off the island. Even the Catholic priests started warning the people, there's a sign from God, He's angry with the city.
Because the Freemasons in this city [of St. Pierre], they didn't hold back of their mockeries and blasphemies against Jesus Christ. So this governor, he even ordered people back to town by force of law and threat of imprisonment, because he wanted the elections to go through. Even the U.S. consul Thomas Prentiss, wrote to Theodore Roosevelt, President at the time, saying the refusal of elections seems to be something unthinkable.
It's a nightmarish situation when it seems that no one can or does not want to face the truth. So they wanted the elections at any cost. But God didn't want them.
And then the day before May 8th, May 7th, on St. Vincent Island, which was not too far, 100 miles or so from Martinique, a volcano exploded on May 7th. But the scientists and the Freemasons and the newspapers were telling everybody that this was the earth releasing its pressure, so we're going to be safe here on the island of Martinique, so the elections can take place. This governor, Louis Mouttet, received a report from civil leaders who [had] climbed the volcano to assess the danger. Their conclusion was there is nothing in the activity of Mount Pelée that warrants a departure from Saint-Pierre City. The safety of Saint-Pierre is completely assured, so they thought. And [then] this happened.
Now, this May 8th of 1902, was the Feast of the Ascension of Our Lord. On the Feast of Corpus Christi, just a year before, this happened a year before this [volcanic] event, the Bishop of Saint-Pierre, Monsignor Marie-Charles-Alfred de Cormont, had been forced to curtail the procession of the Blessed Sacrament because of the stones and insults hurled at him during the procession. The anti-Catholic persecution took on such proportions that the Bishop had to flee the island of Martinique for some months in order to let the situation calm down.
At his departure on the boat in the harbor, a group of enemies of the cross were still throwing projectiles at him, to which Bishop de Cormont's only response was, 'you throw stones at us, the volcano will return them.' [His words] proved prophetic. This was written and recorded by the eyewitness, Father Pinot.
During the 1902 Carnival, which starts with Fat Tuesday, Mardi Gras, right before Lent, the festivities took on a sacrilegious character. Many participants dressed up as monks and made a mockery of Christianity. Marenz, in his book titled Funeral Pilgrimage to the Ruins of Saint-Pierre, he recounts, quote:
On the island of Martinique, they had three Masonic Lodges. It had sixteen refineries for rum, so it was a very luxurious city, very comfortable, very abundant with all good material things. And many Americans used to go down there and visit as well and spend vacations.
The Monday of the Carnival, during the Lent, was 'devoted to devils and witches, all dressed in red, followed by a horde of children and adults dancing and making frightful guttural noises, says another eyewitness.' Sounds like those Superbowl halftime shows now, doesn't it?
And then what happened? Mud began to flow down the valleys. People decided to flee, but the governor said, 'Don't worry, we have elections coming up. I've already sent a crew up there to test it all. Everything is fine. This happens every few billion years because of evolution and you're going to be safe.'
Well, here's what happened. There, within 70 seconds, the volcano erupted with violence and a pyroclastic flow came down, which is just a wall, like an avalanche of lava and hot coals and smoke and ash came down like a huge avalanche of snow and destroyed the city within 70 seconds. It came down at 100 miles an hour, this hot cloud of gas and incandescent solid particles like glowing clouds.
There was a statue of Our Lady weighing five tons, which was five kilometers, that's about just over three miles away from the crater, it was found some 12 meters away from the pedestal, 72 feet it was moved, this five-ton statue of Our Lady.
There was a bell in the city weighing one ton, which was considerably deformed by all the heat afterwards.
There were 400 boats in the radius of the mountain, only one survived.
Of the 100,000 people who inhabited the city, about 40,000 died from burning, asphyxiation and electrocution. And then, after this terrible disaster, only three survived.
One was a prisoner who was in the prison. The prisoner was so well insulated and he just said it just suddenly got really hot and hard to breathe. He didn't know what happened, he felt the earthquake and later rescue teams came and found him alive.
His name was Louis-Auguste_Cyparis, a big tall black man and he was in prison because he killed someone with a sword, a [cutlass]. Afterwards he joined Barnum and Bailey's circus and toured the world, boasting to be the lone survivor of Martinique Island [volcano]. The other survivor was a shoemaker, Léon Compère-Léandre. Léon, and the other one was a little girl, a little girl about five or six years old. Her name was Havivra Da Ifrile - and she was on a little boat and she was in a position where she was not harmed.
So, this whole island was just destroyed under two minutes, just like that. So, so much for their elections, so much for their blasphemies, so much for the insulting God - God is not mocked. God is not mocked and if this is just a little appetizer of what's coming on our world, it won't be pretty.
Sister Lucia of Fatima, she describes the one of the chastisements and she just, she says she sees like a lance pointed down on the earth and a whole raining of fire, whole cities buried under mountains, she says, in one of her visions. So, where have we come to? When blaspheming Christ in the Super Bowl has become the norm, the Olympics was begun with the whole ceremony mocking the Last Supper, mocking the Sacred Heart of Jesus, that was in Paris. The prophecies say Paris will burn and, you know, when we consider our elections this year, there is no pro-life.
So, here we are back to pre-pagan days when sacrificing children has become the norm. When abortion now totally backed by both candidates, President Trump totally backs, now sad to say, the pill, the abortion pill, which makes up 63% of abortions. And so, when they approve that to be bought or sold on the counter, this is just going to skyrocket abortions.
And there's full approval from both sides also for IVF and abortion. The argument, one wants abortion late term and even after, and the other, the Reds want the abortion earlier, but they approve, they approve of this. So, what are Catholics supposed to do? There are numerous priests and articles out there saying, 'well, you know, lesser evil and and the principle of trying to apply the principle of the lesser evil and the other moral principles.'
But for Catholics, you know, you can use moral distinctions and acrobatics all you want. The bottom line is we have become like the nations Jeremiah and Isaiah the prophet thundered against. And Isaiah and Jeremiah say, they quote God saying, 'The Lord God says, because you have sacrificed your children and have played your music at these pagan ceremonies, I will take you like a clay vessel of a potter and smash you against the rocks and you'll be shattered and your names will be no more.'
And is this what we're on the verge of? America being just one of the other pages of history? Yeah, there was once a nation that was started and was discovered by Christopher Columbus and the Masons settled up in the north and they took over. America was baptized Catholic, but it became overtaken by the Masons and they decided we don't want Christ the King. So this nation became very proud and pompous, started spreading wars everywhere in the name of liberty, freedom, and the rights of man.
And they started killing their own children by the millions, building up little hospitals and clinics everywhere. Then they invented pills to kill their own children so they could be more free for their vacations and to pursue their careers. And this nation, they had elections and it came to the point where there was no longer anyone fighting for the little ones, the little ones that Christ said, what you do to the least of these, you do to me.
What you do to the least baby in the mother's womb, you do to Christ himself. And these people became gross and hardened. And where were the Catholic people in those days to stand up and finally draw the line and say, enough, no more.
You don't deserve our elections if you're going to destroy and stand for the constant killing of the children. And even many Catholics voted these people in, says the books of history in the future, many Catholics voted them in trying to do moral theology acrobatics and make distinctions here and lesser evil there and distinctions there and material this, formal that, when it all just came down to slaughtering the innocents. And then this nation under the great chastisement was buried and they, whatever way God is going to punish the West, we know it's going to be, and it will be worse than Saint-Pierre, I'm afraid, much worse, because Saint-Pierre, they weren't doing abortions in that city.
They probably did them in the back alleys, but it wasn't approved by that governor. But now we have approved abortion and either candidate, whoever wins, is just going to fast forward abortions. To Trump's credit, he did reduce it from federal to state level and God may spare states like Oklahoma that has banned abortion.
Texas also is gravely trying to limit abortion, but it's still permitting it at the younger levels. So some states may be spared the chastisement, but where were the Catholics of those days when America was once a powerful nation? Where were those traditional Catholics to stand up and defend the little ones? Where were they when they cast all their elections and ballots in favor of candidates that would continue the bloodshed? That will be the future history books, and then the new books will be written. But America, God spared a few families, God spared a few people who did not want any participation in this wickedness, this wicked and adulterous generation, and out of these, few that survived that chastisement, God used them to rebuild, and priests began to fill seminaries and convents filled with nuns, and the faith spread, and the Pope finally consecrated Russia, and the United States, what used to be, became a Catholic nation.
In the reign of Christ the King was proclaimed, and in the laws was banned forever abortion and sodomite parades, and in their constitution, in their declaration of dependence on Christ the King, they declared Christ is King of this nation, and the Immaculate Heart of Mary reigns with Her Divine Son over our laws, over our people, and that people became strong and prosperous and blessed by God, and out of this era came many saints. Is this the future of what land we're standing on? Well, it can all be averted if we do what Our Lady says, 'Pray Her Rosary, Wear Her scapular, [make] reparation to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, and defend the unborn.
That's the last line in the sand for all of us.
We have to draw the line somewhere, and it has to stop with abortion. You cannot compromise on that question. In 2006, in Mexico, the tilma of Our Lady hangs in Mexico City, near Tepeyac, where Our Lady appeared to Juan Diego [as Our Lady of Guadalupe].
In 2006, Mexico passed the abortion law. It was a terrible tragedy for Mexico, but Our Lady protested, Heaven protested, and the tilma miraculously spoke again to the world, as she always does. Because where the baby Jesus is in her womb, for 24 hours, He was visible, shining through the tilma, the baby Jesus, and you can still see photographs of this and footage. And some scoffers tried to say, 'well, it was just reflection of camera glass.' No, it wasn't, because people came and saw it from all angles, and for 24 hours, they could see the baby Jesus in the womb of the Virgin Mary, and still today, people can put a stethoscope to the image of the tilma, and they hear two hearts beating miraculously, the heart of Mary slower, and the heart of Jesus pumping faster.
Why did she do this when the abortion was passed? Because Heaven hates this child sacrifice, which we have reverted to as decadent modern nations. So do we ever need Christ the King, and do we ever want to proclaim him Christ, King of our nation? May the Sacred Heart of Jesus come back to reign over our governments, over our constitutions, over our laws. That's the only path to freedom, and true liberty, and true prosperity. So, is God going to let us fall into these hands of these degenerates that will just bring down the more chastisement from heaven? Well, let's do our part.
Stay with Our Lady. Would she vote for a pro-abortion candidate if she was alive in St. Joseph? Do you think they would? And get into all these arguments of material, formal participation, and lesser evil, and this principle and that principle from the 1940s and 50s? I don't think so, and it really is that simple. It really is that simple, but you stand with Our Lady, opposed to this wicked and perverse generation.
Stand with her, and God will protect you, and at least you'll die in peace knowing that you've never cast your ballot to the massacre of children. Happy you, if you could say that. Let's turn to the Virgin Mary.
Let's turn to this Mother of God. Very soon, we're going to be escorting, carrying, and accompanying Jesus Christ the King through the little road here, out in the country. If we were in the city, a parish in the city, we'd walk right down the streets of the main city, but for now, here we are outside.
A little cool, but a beautiful day to honor Christ the King, and let's make reparation to the heart of Jesus. Let's pray. Pray to the Mother of God to spare this nation and our country, and beg Mother of God to grant a Pope to consecrate Russia.
That is the bottom line.
O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to Thee.
O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to Thee.
O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to Thee, and for those who do not have recourse to Thee, especially all communists and Freemasons and other enemies of Holy Mother Church, Amen.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, Amen.
Fr. Hewko - Catholics Cannot Vote for Abortion
☩ PRAEDICATIO ☩ by THE ☩ TRUMPET [Slightly adapted and reformatted] | October 28, 2024
Today, the message is unmistakable: Catholics face an uncompromising choice between fidelity to Christ the King or complicity with a world descending into godlessness. Modern governments wage war on faith and life itself, mocking Christ’s rightful kingship and promoting laws that enshrine the killing of the innocent. As Catholics, we stand in a political landscape where both Trump and Harris champion abortion in one form or another—whether pushing for unrestricted access to abortion pills or expanding it through legislative loopholes. There is no choice here for a faithful Catholic, no "lesser evil" to cling to. Voting for either is, in effect, voting for the continued slaughter of innocents.
Rooted in Catholic tradition and the undeniable truth of the Gospel, this sermon pulls no punches: Catholics cannot sell their souls in the voting booth. In the words of Pope Pius XI, Christ reigns not only in hearts but in laws, institutions, and societies. We must heed this call for Catholic integrity, rejecting political systems that defy God’s law. Now more than ever, we need the reign of Christ and the Immaculate Heart of Mary—our only path to true peace and salvation in a culture bent on self-destruction. Stand with Christ the King, or face the inevitable judgment of those who choose to stand against Him.
Due to the urgent nature of this message, we prioritized delivering it to you swiftly and have not yet completed our second round of proofreading. As a result, minor grammatical or spelling errors may still be present. We appreciate your understanding and will work to correct any oversights in the next day or two.

KINGSHIP OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, "KING OF KINGS LORD OF LORDS"

[Transcription of Fr. Hewko's sermon for the Feast of Christ the King - October 27, 2024]
Today is the feast of our Lord Jesus Christ the King.
The Epistle is taken from Saint Paul's letter to the Colossians chapter 1.
Brethren, we give thanks to God the Father, who has made us worthy to be partakers of the lot of the saints in light, who has delivered us from the power of darkness and has translated us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, in whom we have redemption through His blood, the remission of sins, who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature, for in Him were all things created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominations or principalities or powers, all things were created by Him and in Him, and He is before all, and by Him all things consist, and He is the head of the body, the church, who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, that in all things He may hold the primacy, because in Him it has well pleased the Father that all fullness should dwell, and through Him to reconcile all things unto Himself, making peace through the blood of His cross, both as to the things that are on earth and the things that are in heaven, in Christ Jesus our Lord.
The Holy Gospel From Saint John chapter 18.
At that time Pilate said to Jesus, Are thou the king of the Jews? Jesus answered, Sayest thou this thing of thyself, or have others told it thee of me? Pilate answered, Am I a Jew? Thy own nation and the chief priests have delivered thee up to me. What hast thou done? Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world. If my kingdom were of this world, my servants would certainly strive that I should not be delivered to the Jews. But now my kingdom is not from hence. Pilate therefore said to him, Art thou a king then? Jesus answered, Thou sayest it, I am a king. For this was I born, and for this came I into the world, that I should give testimony to the truth. Everyone that is of the truth heareth my voice.
Thus are the words of the Holy Gospel.
You'll find at the entrance The Recusant copies available for Autumn Issue Number 62. There's some very good articles, especially the conference of Archbishop Lefebvre against the liberalism, and he speaks of the reign of Christ the King. It's so very fitting for this feast.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, the Holy Ghost. Amen. We adore Jesus Christ the King.
He is King, why? Because of the Hypostatic Union. We learned that in the Catechism. What is the Hypostatic Union? [It] is the Divine Person of the Son, assuming, taking up to Himself the human nature, that God became flesh for us, so that we could say the person of Jesus Christ is not the person of, it's not a human person, he's the person of God.
We are all human persons. You all have a personality, and the essence of a person which makes up who you are, but it's all the human nature. But our Lord Jesus Christ, His Person is not human.
It is the Divine person. His nature is human, but his Person is one with the Father and the Holy Ghost from all eternity. And that's why Saint John the Baptist will say of Christ, 'His coming forth is from the days of eternity.'
And Daniel the prophet will say 'His days are from before time, before eternity.' And in this Mass, all throughout this Mass of Christ the King, you have these constant references to the Eternal Kingship of Jesus Christ. Look at the intro to Apocalypse 5. 'The Lamb that was slain is worthy to receive power and divinity and wisdom and strength and honor.
To him be glory and empire forever and ever. Now remember, the Muslims deny that God can die, and God in his divinity cannot die. But they reject that Christ is God.'
But this refutes the Muslim errors that Christ truly was the Lamb, and he truly died. And in the book of Apocalypse also, our Lord says, "I am the Alpha and the Omega, who was dead, but now liveth." So Christ did die.
And that's the only way God could die for us, was to take on human flesh. It was truly an invention of love, an invention of the solution to the worst of all problems, which was how to restore the human race that had fallen from the Fall of Adam and Eve. And the sin of Adam shut the gates of heaven.
So how is it possible, since it takes blood to wash away sins, how would heaven ever be open again? And the answer was within the Holy Trinity. And it says this in the Psalms, "And the Son said to the Father, The Lord said to my Lord, I am this day I have begotten thee. You are my Son.'
And the Son says to the Father, 'Holocausts and oblations You didn't want,' the sacrifice of the Old Testament, animals, bulls being slaughtered, the sprinkling of the blood of the lambs, the lambs being roasted, 'sacrifice and oblation You didn't want.' And then I said, 'Then said I,' says God the Son, 'I will come, Ecce Venio, behold, I will come.' I will take on the human nature.
And this will solve all the problems. Because if I take on the human nature, then the blood can be spilled and man can be redeemed. And our Lord could easily have miraculously taken on a human flesh, miraculously arranged His death and work the Redemption.
He could have done that without any cooperation of anybody else. But notice our Lord loves to recruit helpers, co-redeemers in His work. He could hear your confessions today. Just come down from heaven and sit in the confessional. [He] will absolve your sins. He could come down from heaven and offer the Mass.
He could easily do it. And He did it, actually, in the convent of St. Gertrude many years ago when they had no Mass and no priest. And then Christ himself came and said Mass. So He could do that. And He could do it all over the world, by bilocation. No problem for Him.
But He has chosen to recruit priests, poor, weak clay to be consecrated, excuse me, to be ordained and bishops consecrated to offer the Sacrifice of the Mass, which is the same Sacrifice of Calvary. And so Our Lord, to work the Redemption, He was honored to have a Co-redemptrix, a Mediatrix, which would be the role of the Blessed Virgin Mary. So as St. Louis de Montfort said, 'God came to us through Mary.' He wants us to come to Him through Mary, through Her immaculate heart. That is God's desire, to bring the true peace in the world. But the modern world doesn't want the peace of God.
Ever since the French Revolution, especially, was the beginning of the war of the Freemasonic Lodges and the conspiracies of Satan to wage war against Jesus Christ, the King. How do we get rid of Christ the King? We have to attack His name, remove Him from the governments, therefore secular governments. And that's why the Freemasons, as Pope after Pope after Pope, Pius VI, Pius VII, Pope Leo XIII, Pius IX, Pius X, Pius XI even, who had the solution in his hands [condemned Freemasonry]. Pius XI was given the solution by the Virgin Mary to consecrate Russia to the Immaculate Heart of Mary. He had more interest in solving things through the League of Nations. Unfortunately, Pope Pius XI, he had already had high hopes for the League of Nations, which we call now the United Nations, and which Pope Paul VI would say to the United Nations in his address to them, 'You are the last hope of mankind.' Imagine that, a Pope saying that to a whole bunch of scoundrels and degenerates and enemies of Jesus Christ. 'You are the last hope of mankind.' Very, very sad.
So, Pope after Pope has reminded the whole world and especially leaders of countries and the leader prelates of the church, preach the kingship of Jesus Christ, proclaim his kingship. Listen to Pope Pius XI speaking of this. Christ as our Redeemer, this is from Quas Primas, Pope Pius XI on the Kingship of Christ.
Christ as Our Redeemer purchased the Church at the price of His own blood. As priest, He offered Himself and continues to offer Himself as a victim for our sins. Is it not evident then that His kingly dignity partakes in a manner of both these offices? It would be a grave error, on the other hand, to say that Christ has no authority whatever in civil affairs, since by virtue of the absolute empire over all creatures committed to him by the Father, all things are in His power.
And this is what St. Paul just said in this epistle, a very beautiful adoration and glory given to Jesus Christ, 'Through him all things are made, by him all things are made, in him all things consist.' Everything was made by Jesus Christ to the tiniest cell, to the biggest mountain. All the galaxies were in the mind of Jesus Christ and He created them with the Father and the Holy Ghost at the beginning, the Six Days of Creation, not 60 million years, six days of creation. And then Our Divine Lord, 'He is King,' says St. Paul, 'over again of all things visible and invisible.' And then he goes [thru] the hierarchies of Angels, whether of Thrones or Dominations or Principalities or Powers.
All things were created by Him and in Him. So as St. Augustine would say, 'All creation is a wonderful garden created for the glory of Jesus Christ the King. All is for His glory and all will give Him glory.'
We often wonder, well, how can this be since so many men hate Christ and so many men attack him and so many governments dethrone him? And it looks like the enemies of the Church are strangling our Catholic Church. And all governments today have become the last bastion, for example, to defend pro-life, to defend children and to stand against abortion. The last in the modern world was the United States.
It used to be you had a choice between all these rotten candidates who were for abortion, but there was used to always be at least one who was pro-life. And then all the priests and even the Novus Ordo bishops said, 'Don't vote for that one, vote for [the pro-life candidate] because he's pro-life.' And even Protestants say, 'Don't vote for that one, vote for him because he's pro-life.' But now we've come, we have become so degenerate that we have fallen. America has fallen. America has fallen hard and it's been overtaken and it's now in the hands of the enemies of Jesus Christ.
And now there is no option. It's just pro-abortion or pro-abortion. [As] there were centuries before Christ came, where they sacrificed children. That was normal policy in pagan countries. Even the Aztecs, this was what shocked the Spaniards when they arrived in Mexico, there was human sacrifice everywhere.
It was a continuation of that pre-Christian era, the Old Testament sacrifices, the Amorites who killed their children, the Canaanites, the Phoenicians, the Carthaginians. And sometimes the Jews would jump in there and adopt the practices of the pagans and start marrying their girls who were pagan. And their girls would lead them into the pagan religions.
And so they would sacrifice their babies. Jeremiah the Prophet thunders against this and he speaks of the valley of Tophet. In the valley of Tophet, Tophet in Hebrew means the Valley of the Drums because the pagans would pound the drums with pounding rock music as they sacrificed the babies and threw them into the fire to [honor] Baal or Moloch.
And the little babies, of course, fighting for their life, they'd be screaming. So to drown out the screams of the babies and drown out their wicked consciences, they would pound the drums. And the same thing's going on today.
How many going to drive into the Planned Parenthood are driving pounding rock music as they drive into the parking lot to drown their conscience from what they're about to do? And the young lady goes in with her boyfriend and sometimes even their own father. Imagine that. Walk into Planned Parenthood and they get all set up for the procedure, as they nicely call it. And notice, of course, the room is there's no germs. They make sure it's all antiseptic and there's no bugs that they can catch. Everything is clean to work the most disgusting and foul murder abortion.
And this practice of infanticide and child killing always shows up when a society becomes pagan. Marks of paganism is body piercing, tattoos all over the place. These are all signs of paganism and degeneracy.
And then, of course, all the sins that come with it, as St. Paul lists, 'disobedience to parents, rebellion, pride, lack of respect for the elder people.' All this is going. And we are back to killing our own babies.
And if you can kill your own baby, you can kill anybody. Nobody respects anything. And that's where we're at. We Americans. And we're in this position where, who do you vote for? Who do you vote for?
Listen to what happened in 1902. In 1902, there was a huge volcano that erupted on the island of Martinique, the French Caribbean island of Martinique [and its major city, St. Pierre]. [St. Pierre, which was a bustling port city and a significant commercial hub in the Caribbean. The city was known as “the Paris of the Antilles” due to its fine architecture, paved streets, and electricity.]
In 1902, it was it's still claimed to be the worst volcanic eruption, even more severe than Mount St. Helens, in 1902 [on Mount Pelée]. What was going on? There was a governor there, Governor Louis Mouttet, was his name. And they were having elections.
And the Freemasons were putting out all of the newspapers all about the elections coming up. And there were rumblings coming from the mountain. Mount Pelée was the name of the mountain, Mount Pelée.
There were strange signs. There were some earthquakes. And then the town below, St. Pierre, many snakes, poisonous snakes started coming down from the mountain because they knew something was coming. And centipedes, big, huge centipedes, a foot long started invading people's homes and backyards. Ants everywhere, termites, even the horses were rearing up and acting strange and agitated.
But the candidates for the election were telling everybody there's nothing to worry about.
And then more earthquakes started to rumble on Mount Pelée. The governor, Louis Mouttet, ordered voters who started to flee the city and planning to leave and fill the boats and get out get off the island. Even the Catholic priests started warning the people, there's a sign from God, He's angry with the city.
Because the Freemasons in this city [of St. Pierre], they didn't hold back of their mockeries and blasphemies against Jesus Christ. So this governor, he even ordered people back to town by force of law and threat of imprisonment, because he wanted the elections to go through. Even the U.S. consul Thomas Prentiss, wrote to Theodore Roosevelt, President at the time, saying the refusal of elections seems to be something unthinkable.
It's a nightmarish situation when it seems that no one can or does not want to face the truth. So they wanted the elections at any cost. But God didn't want them.
And then the day before May 8th, May 7th, on St. Vincent Island, which was not too far, 100 miles or so from Martinique, a volcano exploded on May 7th. But the scientists and the Freemasons and the newspapers were telling everybody that this was the earth releasing its pressure, so we're going to be safe here on the island of Martinique, so the elections can take place. This governor, Louis Mouttet, received a report from civil leaders who [had] climbed the volcano to assess the danger. Their conclusion was there is nothing in the activity of Mount Pelée that warrants a departure from Saint-Pierre City. The safety of Saint-Pierre is completely assured, so they thought. And [then] this happened.
Now, this May 8th of 1902, was the Feast of the Ascension of Our Lord. On the Feast of Corpus Christi, just a year before, this happened a year before this [volcanic] event, the Bishop of Saint-Pierre, Monsignor Marie-Charles-Alfred de Cormont, had been forced to curtail the procession of the Blessed Sacrament because of the stones and insults hurled at him during the procession. The anti-Catholic persecution took on such proportions that the Bishop had to flee the island of Martinique for some months in order to let the situation calm down.
At his departure on the boat in the harbor, a group of enemies of the cross were still throwing projectiles at him, to which Bishop de Cormont's only response was, 'you throw stones at us, the volcano will return them.' [His words] proved prophetic. This was written and recorded by the eyewitness, Father Pinot.
During the 1902 Carnival, which starts with Fat Tuesday, Mardi Gras, right before Lent, the festivities took on a sacrilegious character. Many participants dressed up as monks and made a mockery of Christianity. Marenz, in his book titled Funeral Pilgrimage to the Ruins of Saint-Pierre, he recounts, quote:
Quote:An excessively violent and ungodly crowd strives to dechristianize this unhappy city. Narrow-minded and intolerant, those who have assumed the mission of directing public opinion do not cease in regard to everything and anything to spread blasphemy and cast contempt on all that is most respectable and sacred. On March 28, 1902, which was Good Friday, as an inhabitant of the island testified to one of the most famous newspapers in Paris, said this, a group of men had noisily for one of the city's main hotels, they gathered at one of the hotels, where a feast is being prepared. They are the representatives of the of the free thinking, free thought, who to prove their independence of spirit have decided to stuff themselves with the richest meats they can conjure up in opposition to the church's precepts of fasting and abstinence.
Drunk, these diabolical men began to roam the streets of the small capital, uttering obscenities and mocking a crucifix of our Lord. And it is also recorded elsewhere that they crucified a pig on this day as well, Good Friday, out of mockery of Christ, they crucified a pig. They set out on the road that leads to the mountain.
Fourteen times amidst infamous blasphemies, the mob pauses to mock the stations of the cross and the scenes of the passion. They continue their ascent, ever more agitated, inventing new improprieties at each step. At last they reach the peak of Mount Pelée.
They stop before the gaping mouth of the crater of the volcano. And there, in the midst of an infernal Sarabande, this hellish dance, jeering and gesticulating, waving their arms, they hurled the crucifix to the bottom of the abyss. That sacred image of Our Lord who died 19 centuries ago to redeem their ungrateful souls.
On the island of Martinique, they had three Masonic Lodges. It had sixteen refineries for rum, so it was a very luxurious city, very comfortable, very abundant with all good material things. And many Americans used to go down there and visit as well and spend vacations.
The Monday of the Carnival, during the Lent, was 'devoted to devils and witches, all dressed in red, followed by a horde of children and adults dancing and making frightful guttural noises, says another eyewitness.' Sounds like those Superbowl halftime shows now, doesn't it?
And then what happened? Mud began to flow down the valleys. People decided to flee, but the governor said, 'Don't worry, we have elections coming up. I've already sent a crew up there to test it all. Everything is fine. This happens every few billion years because of evolution and you're going to be safe.'
Well, here's what happened. There, within 70 seconds, the volcano erupted with violence and a pyroclastic flow came down, which is just a wall, like an avalanche of lava and hot coals and smoke and ash came down like a huge avalanche of snow and destroyed the city within 70 seconds. It came down at 100 miles an hour, this hot cloud of gas and incandescent solid particles like glowing clouds.
There was a statue of Our Lady weighing five tons, which was five kilometers, that's about just over three miles away from the crater, it was found some 12 meters away from the pedestal, 72 feet it was moved, this five-ton statue of Our Lady.
There was a bell in the city weighing one ton, which was considerably deformed by all the heat afterwards.
There were 400 boats in the radius of the mountain, only one survived.
Of the 100,000 people who inhabited the city, about 40,000 died from burning, asphyxiation and electrocution. And then, after this terrible disaster, only three survived.
One was a prisoner who was in the prison. The prisoner was so well insulated and he just said it just suddenly got really hot and hard to breathe. He didn't know what happened, he felt the earthquake and later rescue teams came and found him alive.
His name was Louis-Auguste_Cyparis, a big tall black man and he was in prison because he killed someone with a sword, a [cutlass]. Afterwards he joined Barnum and Bailey's circus and toured the world, boasting to be the lone survivor of Martinique Island [volcano]. The other survivor was a shoemaker, Léon Compère-Léandre. Léon, and the other one was a little girl, a little girl about five or six years old. Her name was Havivra Da Ifrile - and she was on a little boat and she was in a position where she was not harmed.
So, this whole island was just destroyed under two minutes, just like that. So, so much for their elections, so much for their blasphemies, so much for the insulting God - God is not mocked. God is not mocked and if this is just a little appetizer of what's coming on our world, it won't be pretty.
Sister Lucia of Fatima, she describes the one of the chastisements and she just, she says she sees like a lance pointed down on the earth and a whole raining of fire, whole cities buried under mountains, she says, in one of her visions. So, where have we come to? When blaspheming Christ in the Super Bowl has become the norm, the Olympics was begun with the whole ceremony mocking the Last Supper, mocking the Sacred Heart of Jesus, that was in Paris. The prophecies say Paris will burn and, you know, when we consider our elections this year, there is no pro-life.
So, here we are back to pre-pagan days when sacrificing children has become the norm. When abortion now totally backed by both candidates, President Trump totally backs, now sad to say, the pill, the abortion pill, which makes up 63% of abortions. And so, when they approve that to be bought or sold on the counter, this is just going to skyrocket abortions.
And there's full approval from both sides also for IVF and abortion. The argument, one wants abortion late term and even after, and the other, the Reds want the abortion earlier, but they approve, they approve of this. So, what are Catholics supposed to do? There are numerous priests and articles out there saying, 'well, you know, lesser evil and and the principle of trying to apply the principle of the lesser evil and the other moral principles.'
But for Catholics, you know, you can use moral distinctions and acrobatics all you want. The bottom line is we have become like the nations Jeremiah and Isaiah the prophet thundered against. And Isaiah and Jeremiah say, they quote God saying, 'The Lord God says, because you have sacrificed your children and have played your music at these pagan ceremonies, I will take you like a clay vessel of a potter and smash you against the rocks and you'll be shattered and your names will be no more.'
And is this what we're on the verge of? America being just one of the other pages of history? Yeah, there was once a nation that was started and was discovered by Christopher Columbus and the Masons settled up in the north and they took over. America was baptized Catholic, but it became overtaken by the Masons and they decided we don't want Christ the King. So this nation became very proud and pompous, started spreading wars everywhere in the name of liberty, freedom, and the rights of man.
And they started killing their own children by the millions, building up little hospitals and clinics everywhere. Then they invented pills to kill their own children so they could be more free for their vacations and to pursue their careers. And this nation, they had elections and it came to the point where there was no longer anyone fighting for the little ones, the little ones that Christ said, what you do to the least of these, you do to me.
What you do to the least baby in the mother's womb, you do to Christ himself. And these people became gross and hardened. And where were the Catholic people in those days to stand up and finally draw the line and say, enough, no more.
You don't deserve our elections if you're going to destroy and stand for the constant killing of the children. And even many Catholics voted these people in, says the books of history in the future, many Catholics voted them in trying to do moral theology acrobatics and make distinctions here and lesser evil there and distinctions there and material this, formal that, when it all just came down to slaughtering the innocents. And then this nation under the great chastisement was buried and they, whatever way God is going to punish the West, we know it's going to be, and it will be worse than Saint-Pierre, I'm afraid, much worse, because Saint-Pierre, they weren't doing abortions in that city.
They probably did them in the back alleys, but it wasn't approved by that governor. But now we have approved abortion and either candidate, whoever wins, is just going to fast forward abortions. To Trump's credit, he did reduce it from federal to state level and God may spare states like Oklahoma that has banned abortion.
Texas also is gravely trying to limit abortion, but it's still permitting it at the younger levels. So some states may be spared the chastisement, but where were the Catholics of those days when America was once a powerful nation? Where were those traditional Catholics to stand up and defend the little ones? Where were they when they cast all their elections and ballots in favor of candidates that would continue the bloodshed? That will be the future history books, and then the new books will be written. But America, God spared a few families, God spared a few people who did not want any participation in this wickedness, this wicked and adulterous generation, and out of these, few that survived that chastisement, God used them to rebuild, and priests began to fill seminaries and convents filled with nuns, and the faith spread, and the Pope finally consecrated Russia, and the United States, what used to be, became a Catholic nation.
In the reign of Christ the King was proclaimed, and in the laws was banned forever abortion and sodomite parades, and in their constitution, in their declaration of dependence on Christ the King, they declared Christ is King of this nation, and the Immaculate Heart of Mary reigns with Her Divine Son over our laws, over our people, and that people became strong and prosperous and blessed by God, and out of this era came many saints. Is this the future of what land we're standing on? Well, it can all be averted if we do what Our Lady says, 'Pray Her Rosary, Wear Her scapular, [make] reparation to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, and defend the unborn.
That's the last line in the sand for all of us.
We have to draw the line somewhere, and it has to stop with abortion. You cannot compromise on that question. In 2006, in Mexico, the tilma of Our Lady hangs in Mexico City, near Tepeyac, where Our Lady appeared to Juan Diego [as Our Lady of Guadalupe].
In 2006, Mexico passed the abortion law. It was a terrible tragedy for Mexico, but Our Lady protested, Heaven protested, and the tilma miraculously spoke again to the world, as she always does. Because where the baby Jesus is in her womb, for 24 hours, He was visible, shining through the tilma, the baby Jesus, and you can still see photographs of this and footage. And some scoffers tried to say, 'well, it was just reflection of camera glass.' No, it wasn't, because people came and saw it from all angles, and for 24 hours, they could see the baby Jesus in the womb of the Virgin Mary, and still today, people can put a stethoscope to the image of the tilma, and they hear two hearts beating miraculously, the heart of Mary slower, and the heart of Jesus pumping faster.
Why did she do this when the abortion was passed? Because Heaven hates this child sacrifice, which we have reverted to as decadent modern nations. So do we ever need Christ the King, and do we ever want to proclaim him Christ, King of our nation? May the Sacred Heart of Jesus come back to reign over our governments, over our constitutions, over our laws. That's the only path to freedom, and true liberty, and true prosperity. So, is God going to let us fall into these hands of these degenerates that will just bring down the more chastisement from heaven? Well, let's do our part.
Stay with Our Lady. Would she vote for a pro-abortion candidate if she was alive in St. Joseph? Do you think they would? And get into all these arguments of material, formal participation, and lesser evil, and this principle and that principle from the 1940s and 50s? I don't think so, and it really is that simple. It really is that simple, but you stand with Our Lady, opposed to this wicked and perverse generation.
Stand with her, and God will protect you, and at least you'll die in peace knowing that you've never cast your ballot to the massacre of children. Happy you, if you could say that. Let's turn to the Virgin Mary.
Let's turn to this Mother of God. Very soon, we're going to be escorting, carrying, and accompanying Jesus Christ the King through the little road here, out in the country. If we were in the city, a parish in the city, we'd walk right down the streets of the main city, but for now, here we are outside.
A little cool, but a beautiful day to honor Christ the King, and let's make reparation to the heart of Jesus. Let's pray. Pray to the Mother of God to spare this nation and our country, and beg Mother of God to grant a Pope to consecrate Russia.
That is the bottom line.
O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to Thee.
O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to Thee.
O Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to Thee, and for those who do not have recourse to Thee, especially all communists and Freemasons and other enemies of Holy Mother Church, Amen.
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, Amen.
"So let us be confident, let us not be unprepared, let us not be outflanked, let us be wise, vigilant, fighting against those who are trying to tear the faith out of our souls and morality out of our hearts, so that we may remain Catholics, remain united to the Blessed Virgin Mary, remain united to the Roman Catholic Church, remain faithful children of the Church."- Abp. Lefebvre
