The priest said that as “we walk through these next four years, I pray that we find the strength to give a glorious witness to the power of what the Church can be, because our enemies think they're going to destroy us. We will be here until the Lord returns. But, we have to suffer a little bit. We have to rely more on his grace and we're going to keep saying ‘yes’ and we're going to take that grace and every time they think they've knocked us down, we're going to turn back around and do even five more things more gloriously.”

This priest is a very optimistic man if he thinks a persecution is only going to last four years.

First, ex-communicate Biden and Pelosi, they are supposedly Catholic and engage in daily mortal sin acts with no remorse.

I’ve strayed from my mother church for far too long. This bishop’s homily has reignited my faith. If more American bishops spoke like this, I feel we’d see more butts in the pews. Time for me to hit the kneelers again.
