So we will not have really
a sermon as such. Today will be more
some announcements, prolonged announcements, and commentaries,
because something happened
this week. What happened was that
maybe 10 days ago, or so, I got an email from Father Gerspacher saying that...
(Father Gerspacher is the Prior of Christ the King in Langley, as you know);
...and he said that they had collected
some mail. (So those who have a problem
hearing, you can come closer. I see in the back that they are doing like this).
(No? No. Okay). So,
telling me that
there was mail that arrived for me, through these
last six-months, and that
I should come and collect the mail; which was a little bit strange because
I had made an automatic change with Canada Post,
but there was maybe a week or
ten days before it took place, and so yes, I understood maybe some
old mail, some mail from March must still be there.
And so I answered and I said: "Well I will see
then what I can do, when I will be back
to Langley", because the great long weekend was last week.
And... So...
I normally do my business, normally on Monday in Langley,
and so I could not do it on Monday because everything was closed,
last Monday, so I had to go on Tuesday.
And Tuesday was the Feast of Saint Pius X.
And I phoned the Priory on Tuesday,
and said: "Well that's when I'm doing my errands,
today, and I could stop by
and pick up my mail." And Father Gerspacher was not there, but Father Rusak was
there, He was very nice and says : "Sure Father, come."
And so I went there, and you know he was very nice and me too.
(I can be nice, you know).
And we chatted a little bit, and so forth and so on;
and there was a nice picture of Benedict XVI in his
office with the the blessing,
a blessing of some sort on the picture, and
and then I saw on my wall
this picture of the Blessed *** Mary,
which I was looking for everywhere in the storage room that I have, and could
not find it.
And finally the fact is, I guess
the people in charge of my move didn't pick it up.
And so I said: "Well this is my picture..."
Well he said: "You should take it." And I did. It's actually a gift for my
first Mass I said after my ordination in Kansas City, given from the Kansas City
faithful.
And he said: "But before you leave
I have another piece of mail for you and you have to sign for it."
And it was a letter
from Toronto from Father Wegner.
And so this is actually my first Canonical Monition.
The seal of the Society
and that logo here and stuff, so I will read it to you.
I was wondering when this would come. I thought they forgot about me or something.
Apparently they didn't. So...
St. Cesaire. Topic: The First
Canonical Monition to the Reverend Patrick Girouard.
Dear Father Girouard (I am still dear to them)
on March 13, 2013
I phoned you in order to announce your transfer
from Langley to St. Cesaire, giving you a delay of 15 days,
in order to allow you reasonable time
to make all the necessary arrangements.
(Okay so March 13th he phoned me and gave me 15 days, so I had until
March 28. That's true.
He gave me until March 28th on that day.
What he fails to mention in the letter, is that the next day
he sent me an e-mail, and he cut it short by 4 days.
So he said: "Well I made a mistake, it should not be the 28th it should be
the 24th
that you have to be in St. Cesaire."
Now in this letter here he doesn't mention that.
And... But even if it would have been fifteen days, you know, it's
very difficult to
pack all of your things and move
with your car and everything for 4,500 km (2,812 miles)
in so short a time, and through the mountains
in winter and everything, so it was a bit
unrealistic.) As of today
you have verbally refused your assignment
and you have opened your own chapel,
'St. Joseph Defender of the Church'
in Aldergrove, and you have started your own website.
(I hope they are looking at the website)
Having in mind that the members of the Society
are obliged to reside in a house of the Institute,
to observe the common life, and not to absent themselves without the
permission of their Superiors. (And then
all the numbers of Canon Law and all that).
Having in mind that your public actions and declarations
have caused a great scandal
among the faithful, and that they constitute both
a grave neglect of your obligations
as member of the Society, and a stubborn
disobedience to a legitimate
order. (Yes, I am stubborn,
it's true in my disobedience, but the order was not legitimate.
Anyways...) all offenses punishable with dismissal from the Society
according to the law of the Church (Canons, blah, blah, blah)
and according to the particular law of our Institute,
(statute number blah blah), which considers
as well as a supplementary offence
the publication of a disagreement with the authority.
(So in 2006 they made that
rule that if you make a public disagreement with the authority
this should not happen - like you are disobedient).
Consequently, you place me in the sad
obligation of issuing,
with the consent of the Superior General,
(that means he has heard of me now) and his Council
and after consultation with my own council (which I never knew
existed before)
a first Canonical Monition, according to Canon (blah blah)
commanding you, under penalty of dismissal from the Society of St.
Pius X,
to return to the obedience to your legitimate superiors
by taking your post in St. Cesaire
without further delay.
If you fail to comply within 15 days
of receipt of this first Canonical Monition,
I will issue a second Canonical Monition.
If you fail to comply again, after 15 days
the Superior General will institute proceedings
leading to your dismissal from our Society
for stubborn disobedience
to legitimate orders in a grave matter,
and for grave scandal, resulting from culpable
behavior. You have the right to defend yourself,
including a representation by a canonical counselor of your choice.
(We don't have a canonical counsellor in Canada, and
so I don't know ). You have the right as well to present your defense directly to
the Superior General
in person or in writing. All your communications and responses will be
given due consideration.
Given at Toronto, August 16, 2013.
Father Freddy Mery, Notary; and Father Jurgen Wegner,
Society of St. Pius X. So this is the official,
with the nice imprinted and engraved seal.
So I will have it
laminated and put on the wall
of my room and I will kiss it
every day, okay? Because this is a certificate
is a certificate that
I have not changed, and that I am against the changes of the Society.
They are condemning me because I have refused the grave scandal of Bishop
Fellay.
Of the April 15th Declaration of last year,
when he said that the New Mass was legitimately promulgated.
We know that something cannot be legitimately promulgated
unless it is legitimate in itself.
So when Bishop Fellay writes that the New Mass
has been legitimately promulgated, that implies that the New Mass is legitimate.
First big mistake! First big
lie. And then
he says that he recognizes the New Code of Canon Law.
New Code of Canon Law that we know Archbishop Lefebvre says was very bad!
Because it has instituted all the reforms
and all the new mentality and all the principles
of Vatican II, into law.
Vatican II is a series of documents and declarations
and so forth and so on. But the New Code of Canon Law take
all of these new principles: of religious liberty,
ecumenism, collegiality,
and the big mistake of the
"subsistit in". As you know, instead of saying
like we used to say: That the Church
established by Christ, the Church of Christ, IS the Catholic Church;
Vatican II, and the New Code of Canon Law, said that
it only SUBSISTS IN the Catholic Church.
And so there are other churches that are members
of the Church of Christ. That is one of the big mistakes of Vatican II.
Now all this
is in the Code of Canon Law.
So the Code of Canon Law defines
and tells what the life of the members of the Catholic Church
will be in practice,
and one of the... An example of one of the very bad
canons and laws of this New Canon Law is
canon 844.
Which derives itself from that new definition of the Church.
That the Church of Christ only "subsists"
in the Catholic Church. It is not any more identified
completely with the Catholic Church. In other words there's others
that can be part of a broader Church.
Now a result of this into law is that canon,
that says that now Catholics can receive sacraments
from non-Catholics and we can give
them to non-Catholics as well; which was
always forbidden before.
Under pain of grave sin.
That's only one example. Another example
is about the Priesthood.
I told you before, that
in Winnipeg, the Archbishop of Winnipeg says that there is no
difference, any difference whatsoever,
between the clergy and the laity.
That we have all been baptized and that we all participate in that Royal
Priesthood of Baptism.
And I told you that therefore the ordinations
made by this bishop are, at the least,
doubtful, because it is
doubtful to know whether he would have the intention
of giving some powers into which he does not believe.
If you don't believe in the special powers of the priesthood,
in the priestly character of the ordination, how can you want to give it?
So, now that
principle of Bishop Weisgerber in Winnipeg,
where does he take it from? He takes it from Vatican II
and he takes it from the New Code of Canon Law.
It's not as explicit as what he thinks, but what he thinks is a logical
consequence
of those principles of Vatican II.
That they call now the "People of God"
and everything is put, the emphasis is on the baptism.
And so that new Code of Canon Law is very bad,
and yet Bishop Fellay says he accepts
that New Code. Another thing he wrote
to Rome in April, in the same document, was that
the Council Vatican II
renders explicit
elements of Tradition that were only
contained implicitly before. In other words, Vatican II
came and revealed to us
some elements of the Revelation, of Tradition, that
we were not aware of before Vatican II.
He doesn't say which elements they are,
and so you are free to think about anything: Maybe it's that new "People of
God" thing; maybe is that "subsistit
in" error.
But we know it cannot be true! We know this Council is bad. We know that
those who made this Council,
all the modernist priests, and I gave you so many quotes last year,
like Father Congar, and Father Ratzinger
even when he was just a Father,
they all said that Vatican II is
the French Revolution in the Church.
Vatican II applies the principles of the French Revolution:
Liberty, Equality, Fraternity.
It puts these principles, these Anti-Christian principles
into the Catholic Church with Vatican II.
And Bishop Fellay says Vatican II explains,
renders explicit, renders
obvious, elements of Tradition, which were hidden.
This is our Superior General! And then him,
and 39 other members,
a few weeks after that, a couple of months after that,
they signed the Declaration of the General Chapter.
Which opened a door to an agreement
with Rome, without anymore asking for the conversion
of Rome. It was always,
since 1988, after Archbishop Lefebvre
realized, in his own words (you can find that
in the French magazine 'Fideliter'
of the Fall of 1988
issue 69 and issue
70), Archbishop Lefebvre himself said:
"If we would have gone along
with what I had signed in May, it was Operation Suicide."
He realized, after the signature, that
he had gone too far!
And He said: The condition now
before we start any negotiations -
let alone sign an agreement - before to start to negotiate
he said: Conversion of Rome!
And in practice he said: the Pope will have
to prove to me that he agrees with
all the documents of Leo XIII, Gregory XVI, Pius IX,
Pius XII and all that. We cannot discuss with them
unless they go back to that traditional doctrine.
And the words he used, he said: "It would be a dialogue
of the deaf. A dialogue of two people who can't hear each other.
Because we want to uphold Tradition,
we want to uphold the Kingdom of Christ in society,
and they want to uphold democracy, and they want to uphold the liberty for
all religions.
But now Bishop Fellay agrees to sign,
not only discuss, but to sign,
even if Rome doesn't change.
He agrees to put ourselves under
the rule of these modernists.
We just have to continue, but he doesn't understand.
I don't know why, nobody knows why, he has that
kind of a fever of an agreement with Rome.
And the General Chapter agrees with him.
And these documents have not changed. These documents are still
official, and the letter of last June,
of the three Bishops, only reinforce the same thing. When you read it the first time
it sounds pretty good.
When you read it the second time you find out flaws and the third time you
find out
even more. So now they are not even
talking anymore about the necessity of an agreement.
They agree that
Rome could just say: "Okay you're fine!
We don't need to sign anything. We'll just declare that you're okay."
So it could be done just like that.
And it is an illusion to think that they will fight.
They say: Yes we have that condition that we asked the permission
to fight you.
What does Rome care? They don't care about it. They can give it two hundred times
that permission.
Because they know that once we are inside,
once we have all these nice... Personal Prelature, and all these nice
things that they will give to us,
we will not dare to do anything
that could cause them to remove it from us.
Because once we accept these things in principle, once
we accept to go back,
in the eyes of the world,
we will be approving all the rest that they do.
If you accept to enter a house,
you know, where bad things are happening,
and you are yourself, suppose, a policeman or something,
you accept, and you accept to live there.
Even if you sign a letter to say there are bad things happening in this house! I
don't agree with these things happening in this house. It doesn't matter,
you live there.
Therefore your practical
action contradicts whatever word or letter you can sign.
And so they want to be recognized, they want to have this
structure, and they will fear to lose it.
And therefore they will tone down
everything wrong that Rome and the Pope do,
and they will extoll, and they will praise to high heaven,
everything, the little things good that they can do.
In other words, they will adopt the same
attitude that the Fraternity of St. Peter has adopted,
and all the other communities Ecclesia Dei:
Tone down the bad things, lift up
and extoll the good things that happen in Rome.
Because they want to justify their own
compromise with Rome. They want to show to their faithful: "You know, finally, Rome
is not that bad.
We can work with them. We can change them from the inside."
But they will be silenced. And if we look at the Society,
they already have changed!
The Society is now doing
exactly the same process
of saying something good
about the Pope and toning down the bad things.
So, for instance, last January
Pope Benedict XVI went to New York,
and on January 1st he made a big
declaration. There was
couple of good things. He said he was against abortion, and he
said he was
for the family. That's good. I don't disagree with that.
But then he says he was for religious liberty, and religious liberty
is that every religion
should be placed on the common law. On the same level.
They should all receive the same liberties. They should all be equal.
Now this is an error that goes
straight away against the Encyclical, "Quas Primas" of Pius XI
which defines that Christ
must reign, not only in the individual,
but also in Society. That it is the duty
of society to promote
the reign of Christ the King.
And that governments have the duty
to help Christ reign in Society,
with their laws. That is the doctrine of the Church.
The principle of religious liberty goes straight away
against that doctrine. It is a heresy!
And we have Pope Benedict XVI
reaffirming in detail, in that conference,
of January 1st this year,
that religious liberty, what it is, and
that it is good, and that is the goal of the Church.
Now you go to DICI, the official website of the Society,
and they talk about that sermon of the Pope.
But what they say is : The Pope made a good sermon!
He says he was against abortion. He says he was for the family.
Good for the Pope! Nothing
about what he said on religious liberty.
Nothing!
And so you see then, that comes from DICI. That comes from
our own Society of St. Pius X's official website.
Same thing also. If you want to know really what's going on
with Pope Francis, you cannot go to DICI anymore.
You will not learn a thing.
You have to go to other websites.
For instance you will never find a picture on DICI,
or a video on DICI, where the Pope carries the beach ball
when he came back from Brazil, from the World Youth Day...
The Pope carrying the beach ball, and putting the beach ball on the main
altar of St. Mary Major. You will never see that on DICI. You will never see
Bishop Fellay, you know, enraged about all this and he should be enraged!
You don't do that. A cathedral is not a beach!
And you've seen also these... I sent you the links to some videos
about the bishops; 300 bishops
dancing, with their cassocks on, being filmed
and dancing you know,
the day before the mass, and during mass, even with their mitres on,
and even with the chasuble on.
During the Mass of the Pope!
I won't imitate them, because I don't
want to start doing the same mistake that they do.
But you will not see that on DICI.
You will not see either, in The Angelus or on DICI,
the pictures of the people who distributed communion during the Pope's
Mass, just a couple of weeks ago, in August
in Rio, Brazil. Pictures I sent to you.
I am telling you these things. The Resistance is telling you these things.
But not the Society.
So you could see these people
basically teenagers, young women mostly,
in tight outfits,
in pants, and leotards (you call them)
and with a t-shirt
of World Youth Day, and then one of them had a big plastic bowl full of hosts,
that were supposed to be consecrated. I hope it was invalid.
but it's supposed to be consecrated. A big
bowl like this, and she came and then
they have plastic cups, like coffee cups,
you know, and they would scoop the hosts, you know,
in their plastic cups, and they would go give communion to the people.
At the mass of the Pope of the Catholic Church, my dear friends!
And Bishop Fellay says: Things are changing!
They are becoming more traditional. Youth
don't like Vatican II. They don't know Vatican II anymore. They don't like it.
They like the traditional Mass!
Well go and have a look at the three million people,
on the beach, at the mass of the Pope.
At that big hoola boola ***. Okay.
We cannot call that a mass: Three and half million people,
dressed like... Ahh! And singing Rock and Roll and what not.
Where is Bishop Fellay? I am trying to hear him!
Maybe I can! Can I hear Bishop Fellay? Talking against this?
Unfortunately not. Maybe I need to have a little
implant in my ear. Have you heard him?
Did you read anything against these things?
No? Well, me neither!
Now we have a new Society! That's what it means.
The chiefs, the Superiors, have changed the Society!
And I have refused, and
I am stubborn in my refusal and yes, I am stubborn in my disobedience
to follow that change.
And one day, if I am saved, that will be because
of that stubborn disobedience.
Because I have spoken out. Because I have told you the truth.
And if you are saved, that will be because of the same reason.
Because you stood up for your convictions,
and because you gave an example
to all the world of Tradition, that it is possible to stand up,
and it is possible to DO something, and it is possible to have a parish
of the Resistance! And why do we call it Resistance?
In fact we should say: A Parish of the Society!
Of the real SSPX! Of the old
SSPX that has not changed.
So right now they are threatening me
to expel me from the New SSPX!
It doesn't scare me, because I have never belonged
to that New SSPX. From day one, I refused that New SSPX!
I remain in my old SSPX.
And so this is why, well, this is a bit of news,
and it is good to recapitulate a bit what happened,
and let us pray that I get the next one, and I get the final one as soon
as possible;
that I can have a nice wall, with all these nice documents, that will tell
me:
Well! That's good! You are not part of the New SSPX!
In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. Amen.
