American Anglican Bishop Goes to Rome; Brings Cathedral Congregation with Him...

"My child and My children, you are all My children. I judge you not by color or race, and I do not judge you by your creed; however, should the knowledge of the One True Church be given to you, and the way to Heaven along the narrow road be given to you, you will follow it or you will be rejected." - Our Lady, August 21, 1985

Virtue Online reported on September 19, 2012:

Traditional Anglican Communion Bishop Louis Campese was speechless on Sunday, Sept. 16, as he joyfully witnessed his flock of American Anglicans be shepherded into the Roman Catholic Church.

"Oh, I'm still on Cloud Nine or Cloud 10," the former bishop of the Anglican Cathedral of the Incarnation told VOL Tuesday afternoon. "It was just amazing."

Bishop Campese's road to Rome was long and arduous ... 36 years long. It was filled with pitfalls and stumbling blocks, crooked turns and blind alleys, wonderings, questions and uncertainty. And finally that day came - 36 years to the day that the Episcopal Church voted in favor of women in the clergy - when he humbly led his Anglican cathedral congregation into the Catholic Church and witnessed firsthand the fulfillment of a dream, the fleshing out of a vision, the answer to Christ's prayer for Christian Unity and his own prayer to live long enough to see it all happen.

The bishop's flock is nearly 200 members strong - babes-in-arms, youngsters, teens and adults - yet, one by one, 140 young adult and mature adult members of his congregation were confirmed as Catholics at the hands of Monsignor Jeffery Steenson of the Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of St. Peter, and Catholic Bishop John Noonan of the Catholic Diocese of Orlando. The younger children, family and friends looked on as another historical first was happening in the Ordinariate. This is the first time a cathedral parish has crossed over the Tiber and into the Ordinariate. Together the two Catholic ordinaries confirmed and received all who were seeking entrance to the Catholic Church at Incarnation.

"We have finally reached the promised land," Campese said likening his journey to the Israelites wondering in the desert. "My people are in a safe harbor. That's the important thing."

Sunday, a subtle change was made to the church's website. "Welcome to Incarnation Catholic Church," says the splash page, proclaiming to all the world that a change of substance had been made. The colorful banner also proclaimed "Incarnation Catholic Church - Ordinariate of the Chair of St. Peter" and the, now familiar, Ordinariate crest graced the placard.

Louis Campese started out as an Episcopal priest in the Central Diocese of Florida, but the Church of the Incarnation was never an Episcopal property. While in the central Florida diocese, the young priest eventually came to the Episcopal Church of the Good Shepherd in Maitland, Florida. There he became friends with an older fellow priest - a retired Army major general who read for Orders in the Episcopal priesthood. The late Bruce Medaris and the future bishop were like-minded. As the Episcopal Church went off the grid on Sept. 16, 1976, with the approval of women in the priesthood during the LXV General Convention, the die was cast. The Episcopal priests realized that for their souls' sake, they had to leave the church of their priestly ordination.

Together they forged into the deep and became a part of the early stages of the Anglican Continuum coming out of the Congress of St. Louis which, one year later, on Sept. 16, 1977, produced the Affirmation of St. Louis document denouncing the ordination of women and affirming the traditional Anglicanism. Fathers Campese and Medaris came under the spiritual leadership of Bishop Peter Francis Watterson - who eventually became Catholic himself through the Pastoral Provision. Bishop Watterson was one of the original four founding bishops in the early Anglican Church of North America.

Incarnation was founded as a mission church in the early Continuum movement with 18 brave souls. Incarnation is the first Continuing Anglican church to be built from the ground up. Before the church was built in the thriving College Park neighborhood, the fledging congregation met in a variety of Orlando-area living rooms, warehouses, and funeral homes. Since that initial founding, Louis Campese has been busy faithfully preaching the Gospel, celebrating the Sacraments, and watching his congregation steadily grow, both spiritually and in numbers.

Eventually, the road to Rome took a turn and Incarnation became a congregant part of the Anglican Church in America - the American branch of the Australian-based Traditional Anglican Communion. Fr. Campese became Bishop Campese when he was consecrated bishop and became the bishop ordinary of the Diocese of Eastern United States with the Anglican Church of the Incarnation being elevated to a cathedral.

When the Traditional Anglican Communion was formed in 1991, it was universally understood that the small Anglican denomination's spiritual trajectory was that of a continuing Anglican-based communion. The clergy and faithful would actively work toward seeing the implementation of Christ's Priestly Prayer of Unity fulfilled in their generation through corporate reunion with the See of Peter in the Roman Catholic Church.

In October 2007, members of the TAC House of Bishops travelled to Portsmouth, England for a plenary session in which they formally signed a petition asking the Vatican to please consider their full, corporate and sacramental union with the Catholic Church.

At that time, the TAC bishops, including Bishop Campese, signed the petition as well as a copy of the Catechism to the Catholic Church and its accompanying Compendium declaring their faithful adherence to the doctrines of the Church of Rome as expressed and taught in theCatechism of the Catholic Church. This was a solemn event that Bishop Campese took to heart. He has never wavered from that point. The image of the Chair of St. Peter stays imprinted on his soul and in his memory.

Bishop Campese made it his goal to see the fulfillment of his denomination's expressed desire for Catholic unity. He worked tirelessly with his Anglican congregation guiding their souls, forming their consciences, and developing their Catholic faith.

The TAC petition chugged through the various departments of the Vatican. Two years later, Pope Benedict XIV formally answered the heartfelt TAC petition in a document entitled Anglicanorum Ceotibusa corner was turned and the long desired end was slowly coming into focus.

Once the concept of various Anglican Ordinariates spanning the globe was announced, during the Fall of 2009, Our Lady of the Atonement Anglican Use Catholic Church opened its doors to welcome their TAC spiritual brethren with a gala Becoming One Gathering. Bishop Campese, and a dozen of his parishioners, travelled to San Antonio, Texas to meet others - Episcopalians, Anglicans, and Continuing Anglicans, from throughout the United States and Canada, who would eventually be joined together to become one united Catholic family in as-of-yet-to-be-announced North American Ordinariate.

"Father (Christopher) Phillips has been so helpful," Bishop Campese noted of the OLA pastor who founded the mother church of the Pastoral Provision. The former Anglican bishop said he was very grateful to Anglican Use Catholic priest for his godly patience, unwavering understanding, and encouraging support as the Ordinariate began to unfold.

After Anglicanorum Ceotibus was announced, Bishop Campese undertook a vigorous three year program of Catholic catechesis to insure, when the time came, that his people would fully understand what it means to be a Roman Catholic living their faith out within the familiarity of the Anglican patrimony. The converting Anglican bishop thoroughly schooled his cathedral parishioners in Catholic theology, prayer, sacraments, devotion, and spirituality. He believes they understand their new Catholic faith better than many Catholics do.

It wasn't until he was sure that his people fully understood the spiritual implications of their being received into the Church of Rome, that the pieces started to come together for Sunday's stirring Confirmation service.

However, the good bishop was busy studying, too. He and his clergy were actively participating in the Ordinariate's online Saturday Seminary program. It is during this intense time priestly formation and theological training that Bishop Campese was able to hone his own spiritual preparation as a Catholic cleric.

Currently, neither Bishop Campese nor any his former cathedral clergy - Fr. William Holiday, Fr. Scott Whitmore and Fr. Jason McCrimmon - have been ordained as Catholic clergy. He is praying that Fr. Holiday will be able to be ordained as a Catholic cleric in the not-too-distant future, but Fr. Whitmore has decided to take a little more time to discern the perimeters of his priesthood, while Fr. McCrimmon has chosen to remain Anglican and live out his priestly ministry as a chaplain in the US Navy.

As far as Bishop Campese goes, he is simply content to be a practicing Roman Catholic. He is now a Catholic lay person, and is addressed as "Mr. Louis Campese, a former Anglican bishop", an Ordinariate spokesperson told VOL.

Once the confirming ceremony was over, the service moved on to the celebration of the Mass and the distribution of the Eucharist. The reception of his first Holy Communion as a Catholic was such a spiritually powerful experience that he is still unable to verbalize his first encounter with Catholic Communion. He remains thoughtfully mute at the vivid remembrance.

At the tender age of 78, the new Catholic convert is three years older than the mandatory retirement age of Catholic clergy, yet he remains energetic and passionate. So, will he be ordained a Catholic priest? That question is still up in the air. However, the former Anglican bishop is convinced that he has accomplished the most important task of his entire priesthood and bishopric. He has safely delivered those Anglican souls under his leadership into the Roman Catholic Church where they were brought into full sacramental communion, and visible unity with other two billion other Christians sharing the same catholic and apostolic faith. Therefore he has humbly, and in obedience to his new Church, laid down his miter and crozier. His task is complete. His is the first TAC cathedral to officially become a part of the Ordinariate.

Incarnation joins several other full-fledged Anglican Use parishes in the Ordinariate including: Our Lady of Walsingham, Houston, TX; St. Thomas More, Scranton, PA; St. Michael the Archangel, Philadelphia, PA; Christ the King, Towson, MD; Mount Calvary, Baltimore, MD; and St. Luke's, Bladensburg, MD; St. Mary the Virgin, Arlington, TX, now a part of the Catholic Diocese of Fort Worth, is slated as the next Anglican Use parish to become a part of the Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of St. Peter.

However, the former bishop's responsibility with the Parish of the Incarnation is far from over. He has been appointed by Monsignor Steenson to remain as Incarnation's Parish Administrator, allowing for the seamless continuation of the day-to-day operation of the newest Catholic Church in the United States. For the most part, the parish life at Incarnation will remain as it has. The Sacraments will be celebrated, the Gospel will be preached, and the various organizations and ministries will continue on unabated.

Until Fr. Holiday is officially ordained a Catholic priest, the sacramental care of the new Catholic parish will fall on the shoulders of the Catholic Diocese of Orlando. Fr. Joseph Roberts, formally of Our Lady of the Lakes in Deltona, Florida, is going to fill in the gap.

Sunday was not the first time that Monsignor Steenson visited the central Florida parish. He last visited on Palm Sunday. Then the Catholic Monsignor was impressed with the Anglican congregation's on-going preparations to be Catholic. He called his Holy Week experience an Ordinariate "happy story".

The Monsignor then encountered his new congregation with much joy and gratitude as he celebrated the congregation's "courageous decision to come into full communion with the Catholic Church," resulting in the "culmination of their ecclesial journey."

The Catholic Monsignor voiced his great respect for Bishop Campese saying that he was truly inspired by the Anglican bishop's tenacity and leadership as the elderly cleric successfully shepherded his cathedral congregation into the Church of Rome. Monsignor Steenson also encouraged these new Catholics to fully live out their newly acquired Catholic faith.

"We can make the most glorious and wonderful professions of faith, but unless we live it in our daily lives - each step of the way - it's not complete," Monsignor Steenson cautioned. "As joyful and as wonderful as this moment is as we affirm our faith and our desire to become Catholics ... we have to live each day of our lives faithful to the word of Jesus Christ."

Incarnation joins several other full-fledged Anglican Use parishes in the Ordinariate including: Our Lady of Walsingham, Houston, TX; St. Thomas More, Scranton, PA; Mount Calvary, Baltimore, MD; and St. Luke's, Bladensburg, MD. St. Mary the Virgin, Arlington, TX, now a part of the Catholic Diocese of Fort Worth, is slated as the next Anglican Use parish to become a part of the Personal Ordinariate of the Chair of St. Peter.

“Where Peter is, there is the church... he who is not with the Pope is not with God, and who desires to be with God must be with the Pope.” These words, reflecting on the meaning of the visions in Fatima, were uttered by Sister Lucia, the only surviving witness to the apparitions there.

"Where Peter is, there is the Church." - St. Ambrose Bishop of Milan

Four marks of the True Church: One, Holy, Catholic, Apostolic…

The following is taken from the booklet, "Faith and common sense", + Imprimatur: Most Reverend John F. Whealon, Archbishop of Hartford:

After Christ left this world, His Church did spring into action, fully prepared to carry on His work. This Church was not something vague in character. Christ said precisely what He wanted it to be. His Church was to be built upon the Apostles. It would continue down to the end of time in the same way, ruled by the successors of the Apostles. That is perhaps the clearest thing of all.

     He also intended it to be one Church, not a number of churches. The Church He had in mind was to be for all men. It would work for their sanctification and salvation. These qualities were so clearly built into the Church that they were marks setting off the true Church of Christ from all other institutions claiming the name. Catholics say that these marks are unity, catholicity, holiness and apostolicity.

     When we examine the early Church as it appears in the time of the Apostles, we find that it had all these qualities. One Church and only one is in existence today which clearly shows the same four marks. This is the Catholic Church.

     Around the dome of St. Peter’s Basilica in Rome are inscribed the words, “Thou art Peter and upon this rock I will build my Church.” Those words are as true of the present Pope as they were of St. Peter. The Pope is the successor of Peter, and he has the same authority as the Prince of the Apostles once had.

     That is a truth which can be amply proved by the facts. No other religious society can trace its heritage back through the centuries to St. Peter.

     Pope Paul VI, the present Bishop of Rome [Note: Paul VI was Pope at the time this article was written], is a successor of St. Peter. Year by year the succession can be traced back to the time of the great Apostle himself. Some of the Popes lived for only a few years or months; some have had very long terms of office. Some of them have been great leaders in world affairs; some relatively obscure. But they are all known to history.

     Today in the Catholic Church the Pope holds the fullness of power the same as Peter did in the early Church. He is not like a democratically-elected president whose power depends on the consent of the governed. Like Peter he has been made the shepherd of the flock by the Lord, and he has the same absolute power as Peter.

     Under him in the administration of the Church are the Bishops and priests. Their power comes from God, as once the power of the Twelve came from Christ. St. Paul said to the presbyters of Ephesus, “Take heed to yourselves and to the whole flock in which the Holy Spirit has placed you as bishops to rule the Church of God” (Acts 20:28).

     There is no doubt that the Catholic Church today is apostolic in the line of succession of its Bishops and the Pope, and that it possesses an authority which was once given to the Apostles.

UNITY OF RULE, BELIEF, RITUAL
     St. Paul told the Ephesians to remember that they had “one Lord, one Faith, one Baptism” (Eph. 4:5). The Catholic Church does have that unity of rule, belief and ritual.

     All Catholics everywhere recognize the authority of the Pope, the Vicar of Christ. He is the representative of the Lord, and presents the final judgments or decision on matters of faith and morals. Catholics do not accept the official pronouncements of the Pope only when they agree with them. They accept them at all times because they recognize his authority.

     All Catholics believe the same faith. There is no difference in the essential doctrines which various priests teach. One Bishop does not have his own truths about religion which are different from the beliefs of another Bishop. Both are explaining the doctrine of the Catholic Church, not their own ideas about doctrines. The manner of preaching may be different; the doctrine is the same throughout the world. There is “one faith” in the Catholic Church.

     So also there is but one “Baptism.” The term embraces all those essential rites which the Catholic Church practices. The most important rite of the Catholic Church is the Mass. The Mass is the re-enactment of the Last Supper, as was commanded by Christ. All Catholics are obliged to attend Mass every Sunday and on the important religious festivals of the year. This obligation is world-wide. So is the Mass. Our soldiers serving in foreign countries are always at home when they go into the Catholic churches of those nations; they find the Mass essentially as they knew it in the United States. The Mass is celebrated in every Catholic church throughout the world and consists of the same essential rite of the consecration of the bread and wine into the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ.

     The seven sacraments–Baptism, Confirmation, the Eucharist, Penance, Matrimony, Holy Orders and the Anointing of the Sick–are the same throughout the world. They are administered in the same way in all places. Every Catholic is obliged to make use of them at appropriate times; there are no national differences.

THE MARK OF HOLINESS
     Not only does the Catholic Church have that mark of unity which Christ wished His Church to have; it also has the mark of holiness. Christ instituted His Church to make men holy and to bring them to heaven. The Catholic Church does just that. None of its teaching ever leads men away from God; none ever twists human nature into some frightening form. All its practices and teachings tend to make men better.

     Moreover, the Catholic Church provides men with the means to become better. It does not simply offer the “consolation of religion.” It does something about man’s ceaseless struggle to become better. To those who are conscious of sinfulness, it does not merely say, “Repent in the secret of your heart and try to do your best in the future.” It says, “Go to the sacrament of Penance; have your sins forgiven, and receive the grace which that sacrament provides to help you avoid these sins for the future.” At the bedside of those seriously ill, the Catholic priest does not merely exhort the Catholic to be sorry for his sins and cast himself upon the mercy of God. The Catholic Church has a rite, the sacrament of the Anointing of the Sick which forgives sins and brings the spiritual and physical help which men need in grave sickness.

     “Is any one among you sick?” asks St. James. “Let him bring in the presbyters of the Church, and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord. And the prayer of faith will save the sick man, and the Lord will raise him up, and if he be in sins, they shall be forgiven him” (James 5:14-16). That is what the Catholic Church does for her members.

     Finally, the Catholic Church is world-wide. That is a fact today as it has been a fact for all these centuries past. The membership of the Catholic Church consists of people of all nations, from every part of the world.

     That is not an accident or the result of good salesmanship. It is the result of the very nature of the Church of Christ. He sent His Apostles to make disciples of all nations. The doctrine and practices which He left them were of such a nature that they appeal to all nations. There has never been a nation which found the doctrine of the Catholic Church contradictory to its own culture or thought.

     When Pere Marquette journeyed down the Mississippi, preaching the Gospel, he found Indians who were anxious to listen to the story of the death of Christ upon the Cross. They were baptized and accepted Christianity wholeheartedly. When St. Francis Xavier reached Japan, he found the natives eager to hear the message. So firm were they in their faith that for two centuries during persecution they held on to that faith despite martyrdom. The Catholic Church is an ancient faith in Japan today, not a recent development.

     So it has been everywhere. The Catholic Church has not been the product of one culture or one nation. Catholicism followed the Spanish armies into this country, and the Spanish armies were defeated. It has little to do with the English colonization of the eastern seaboard. Yet today the Catholic Church is the largest single religious body in the United States and a native part of our culture. The Catholic Church is universal in its appeal. That is why it is called “Catholic,” for catholic means universal.

THE TRUE CHURCH OF CHRIST
     These are the qualities which mark out the Catholic Church today as the one religious organization in the world which is identical with the Church which Jesus Christ founded. It is one, holy, catholic and apostolic, just as was the Church in the time of the first Apostles.

     These four marks point out the Catholic Church as the true Church of Christ in another way. Only God can work a miracle. Now these four qualities in a society are obviously miraculous.

     Take unity, for example. We have erected a society called the United Nations to make something of that unity. But it seems the more nations we have in it, the less unity there is.

     Political parties meet in convention to draw up a “platform” of action. But the platform cannot be too definite. There have to be compromises in deference to sharply conflicting views. The more divergent the factions in the party, the less agreement can be reached. All things human show the same tendency to disintegrate under the pressure of expansion.

     The truths held by all Catholics are numerous and detailed; sometimes they are involved. For example, all Catholics believe in transubstantiation. Transubstantiation is the term applied to the change of the whole substance of bread into the Body of Christ and the change of the whole substance of wine into the substance of the Blood of Christ, the appearance of bread and wine remaining. That is a very definite belief, though a rather involved one. It is not the kind of truth people would come to know and believe on their own. All Catholics hold it with equal belief and with complete acceptance.

     So it is with many other points of Catholic belief. The unity of the Catholic Church is something which is not matched anywhere else in the world. It is not that the Catholic Church is a little more united than other societies. It is that the Catholic Church is unified in a way which no other society was ever united. The ordinary laws of sociology do not apply here. That is what we mean by a miracle. Such unity cannot be explained on any natural basis.

     Take the case of the Church’s apostolic tradition. It is just not reasonable that a society which has lived so vigorously as the Catholic Church should not have burned itself out by this time. Every other society which was in existence when Christ founded His Church–the Roman Empire, nation of the Gauls, the great universities of Greece–has passed away. Groups have broken off from the Catholic Church during its almost two thousand years of existence. They have followed the curve of disintegration which governs all natural societies. They have waxed strong for a while, grown old and they have passed away.

     As the man in the Gospel who was born blind said after receiving his sight, “If this man were not from God, he could do nothing” (John 9:33). If the Catholic Church were not from God, it could not continue to possess, as the Catholic Church does, the four marks which Christ’s True Church must possess–apostolicity, catholicity, unity and holiness. Any church may claim these symbols of authenticity and authority. But only one may truly possess them.

"You have been given by your baptism entrance into the only true religion upon earth, the Roman Catholic Church under My Son, Jesus. Though man in his arrogance and pride has forgotten His role and His rule, you must carry it forward. Retain the Faith and the truth in the hearts of mankind." - Our Lady of the Roses, September 7, 1978

"I gave you a simple plan with the construction of My House, My Church, upon earth. But now you want to reform it, until you will split My House asunder with many denominations, many new denominations. I ask that My Church be universal, apostolic, and the saver of souls. However, there are rules to be followed, doctrines to remain unchanged." - Jesus, September 7, 1978

Our Lady of the Roses' Awesome Bayside Prophecies... https://www.tldm.org/Bayside/
These prophecies came from Jesus, Mary, and the saints to Veronica Lueken at Bayside, NY, from 1968 to 1995:

ONLY TRUE RELIGION
"O My children, I will not go into a long discourse now with you about charity and love for your neighbor, but you must understand: you cannot judge your neighbor. You must pray for them. However, you cannot become weak and permissive. You must stand forth as bearers of the light, carriers of the truth. You have been given by your baptism entrance into the only true religion upon earth, the Roman Catholic Church under My Son, Jesus. Though man in his arrogance and pride has forgotten His role and His rule, you must carry it forward. Retain the Faith and the truth in the hearts of mankind." - Our Lady, September 7, 1978

YOUR BIRTHRIGHT
"As in the past, rejection has been the start of a fallen man. Sin has become a way of life with many. You live in a delusion if you believe that you can offend the Eternal Father and then gain eternal life in the Kingdom. No, I say to you: many are called, but few are chosen.
   "Ask and you shall receive, believe and you will be given the way. But you must merit the Kingdom. Your birthright was a start, but you must make your way to the Kingdom. Others may gain these graces for you by prayer and acts of sacrifice, but you will accept or reject the key." - Jesus, May 26, 1976

ONE TRUE CHURCH
"My child and My children, you are all My children. I judge you not by color or race, and I do not judge you by your creed; however, should the knowledge of the One True Church be given to you, and the way to Heaven along the narrow road be given to you, you will follow it or you will be rejected." - Our Lady, August 21, 1985

RELIGION OF THE CROSS
"There is only one religion that can save your country and all of the countries of the world: the religion of the cross and My Son's sacrifice upon that cross." - Our Lady, November 25, 1978

SEPARATED BRETHREN
"O My children, pray much! We do not want to see a division in My Son's House. The Roman Catholic Church must remain one! But this does not mean, as the church of man states, that you will bring all manner of heretics and separated brethren in. No, My children, that is an error, a delusion from satan. You cannot change My Son's House and bring them in and change for them! They must change and come back to the original rule given by My Son and those who were with Him in the building of the foundation.
   "I repeat, My child and My children: separated brethren must change. They have protested in the past; they have taken themselves away from the truth and the one true Church. They must reject the errors they have made in the past and come back and start again. They cannot bring their errors into My Son's House.
   "You are opening the doors now for all manner of heretics, separated brethren. They do not come to unite in good spirit and heart; they come to take over. They seek to change you, O pastors, who are being deluded. And what do I see in My Son's House but separated brethren upon His pulpit! Even from the temples, the synagogues of satan, upon His pulpit! And for what?
   "And who are My pastors now that have joined in this plan of destruction? Who ordained some of them? Not legitimate hands. They come to destroy. They come in like rats, burrowing, undermining My Son's Church! Do you think you are not watched? Are you above your Creator that you think you can deceive the world permanently? No, I say unto you! You are being given your time, for you who have given yourselves to satan are now exposing your true nature to the world." - Our Lady, March 18, 1977

ESTABLISHED BY JESUS CHRIST
"There are many deceptions taking place among you, and one being the falsification of the manner of the salvation of souls. When I was upon earth, I established the rules and I gave you My Church, My House. However, now I watch as many have gone forward with itching ears and novelty, and they are setting upon the world a new religion." - Jesus, May 20, 1978

WILL STAND
"Do not be deluded, My children, by the agents of satan among you in human form who preach doctrines of devils. The truth has been given to mankind through the ages. The Holy Roman Catholic Church of My Son will stand. The members shall be reduced to few. Only a remnant, My child, shall carry the banner Faithful and True. But the gates of hell shall fight a heavy battle against My Son's Church, but they shall not succeed." - Our Lady, May 14, 1977

ONLY SANCTIFIED HOUSE
"Your children are wandering into the web of satan, going farther from the House of My Son. The truth is being removed from their hearts. They are setting among themselves groups. They shall not remove from their lives vows of My Son. As the only sanctified House upon earth, their souls will be destroyed when they are not given the Bread of living life. This Bread will only be obtained in the sanctified House of My Son. Satan seeks to remove the tabernacle from among you." - Our Lady, August 5, 1973

1.) The Douay-Rheims Holy Bible...

"I ask that all who hear My voice will take their Bibles, and if they do not have one, search, but find the right Bible, those printed not after 1965, My children." - Jesus, October 5, 1985
     "You must all obtain a copy of the Book of life and love, the Bible. Do not accept the new mods. Try to find in your bookstores the old Bibles, My children, for many are being changed to suit the carnal nature of man. I repeat, sin has become a way of life." - Our Lady, October 6, 1992
    "I must ask you all to read but a few short chapters a day now, the Book of life and love, your Bible. Knowledge must be gained for all the disciples of My Son, for you will be attacked by scientific minds. But do not be concerned what you will say to them when accosted, for the words will be given to you by the Spirit." - Our Lady, April 10, 1976
    The Douay-Rheims Bible was published in 1899. It is the official Bible of the Roman Catholic Church. Almost all other Bibles have been rewritten by Satan.
