6 February '22: Rosary Rally in Chicago for End to the Persecution of Catholics Who Want the Traditional Latin Mass

'Prelates cannot persecute the Mass.  They cannot persecute a book.  They cannot persecute a Rite.   They persecute PEOPLE who want ... the Missale Romanum, of the Roman Rite in the Vetus Ordo.'

From Fr Z's Blog

Before anything else.  Prelates cannot persecute the Mass.  They cannot persecute a book.  They cannot persecute a Rite.   They persecute PEOPLE who want Holy Mass through a book, the Missale Romanum, of the Roman Rite in the Vetus Ordo.

They persecute the people.

I received this notice:

Please join us for a Rosary Rally outside of Holy Name Cathedral on Sunday, February 6th from 11AM – Noon.

We will have a banner – please bring your Rosaries, and feel free to bring signs.
We will be praying for the full freedom of the Latin Mass in the Archdiocese of Chicago, especially in light of the Cardinal’s recent restrictions.

Our message to Cardinal Cupich will be: Your Eminence, why are you persecuting faithful Catholics? As Catholics in Chicago and the surrounding area, we simply desire to pray and attend the Holy Mass in the way that so many saints have done. Why are you depriving us of the Traditional Latin Mass on the first Sunday of every month? What have we done to deserve such a punishment?

This event is being organized by ordinary Catholics who love Holy Mother Church and the Traditional Latin Mass. Facebook event page: https://fb.me/e/1Zz7ItQsS

If you are anywhere near Chicago, or you can go there, GO!

Meanwhile, commit to these simple things each day for

  • the softening of hearts of those interpreting Traditionis custodes (bishops, Roman Congregation officials);
  • the overturning of, or reversal of, or major amendment of Traditionis custodes.

Namely, commit to

  • recite the beautiful and powerful Memorare prayer DAILY;
  • make an act of physical or material penance for the two intentions ONCE A WEEK.

This is what I call being a “Custos Traditionis… a Guardian of Tradition”, in contrast to what bishops are being called to become, “Jailers of Tradition… Traditionis Custodes”.

Attacks on the Catholic Faith will not be tolerated. Comments will be deleted that are republican (Yanks! Note the lower case 'r'!), attacks on the legitimacy of Pope Francis as the Vicar of Christ (I know he's a material heretic and a Protector of Perverts, and I definitely want him gone yesterday! However, he is Pope, and I pray for him every day.), the legitimacy of the House of Windsor or of the claims of the Elder Line of the House of France, or attacks on the legitimacy of any of the currently ruling Houses of Europe.
