“Cancelled Priests Coalition response to Pope:
While there will be much commentary in the next several days and weeks to the dreck that was just released by the Congregation for Divine Worship in regard to the so-called dubia about the Traditional Latin Mass, the Coalition for Canceled Priests wants to make clear to all priests of good will that we will support priests who feel they cannot go along with the draconian restrictions placed on the celebration of the ancient rite, both the Mass and the other Sacraments. This is especially true for priests who are part of the so-called Ecclesia Dei communities. The Roman Catholic Church is not governed by legal positivism. The laity cannot be silent to this illegal act.
One main reason many priests have been canceled is their support of tradition. The Coalition will not stand for this outrageous and unnecessary attack on traditional priests and laity. We strongly encourage the laity, who attend only the Novus Ordo Missae and might wonder what this has to do with them, that this attack on so called traditional Catholics is an attack on all faithful, orthodox Catholics.
It is time for all faithful Catholics to stand side-by-side and truly unite the clans through uncompromisingly upholding and faithfully living the holy traditions that have been handed on to us by our ancestors in the Faith. Therefore, brethren, stand fast; and hold the traditions which you have learned, whether by word, or by our epistle. -2 Thessalonians 2:14
We also want to make clear that the Coalition will help any Catholic priest who feels he cannot, in good conscience, go along with “jab” mandates.
Please pray and fast for Pope Francis that his heart will be melted and he will truly become the shepherd and father (papa) that we all need.
Our Lady, Queen of the Clergy, Pray for Us!
St. John the Baptist, Pray for Us!”
