About Father Louis J. Campbell

Father Louis J. Campbell was born in Brooklyn, New York, on November 1, 1932. To avoid the effects of the Great Depression, his parents took him back in 1934 to Cape Breton Island in their native Nova Scotia, where he grew up. He graduated from St. Francis Xavier University in Antigonish, Nova Scotia, in 1956, and the same year joined the Order of St. Augustine. After seminary studies at St. Francis Seminary in South Milwaukee, Wisconsin, and St. Paul's University in Ottawa, Ontario, he was ordained to the priesthood on September 3, 1961.

During his forty years with the Augustinians in Canada, Father Campbell served a term as Novice Master, and was prior of monasteries in Delta, British Columbia, Racine, Wisconsin, and King City, Ontario. After several years as pastor of Sacred Heart Parish in King City, he was given leave by the Augustinians to join the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter, where he resumed the celebration of the Traditional Latin Mass. With the Fraternity he was pastor for three years at St. Michael's Parish in Scranton, PA, and for two years at St. Clement's in Ottawa, Ontario, before accepting an invitation from a group of Traditional Catholics in the Houston area to be chaplain at St. Jude's Shrine in Stafford, Texas, his present location.

Father Campbell's sermons are being sent by e-mail to individuals and groups of Traditional Catholics all over the world, and some of them have been published in a book entitled The Little Book of Sermons for the Last Times.

The title for his sermons on The DAILY CATHOLIC are appropriately called "Qui legit, intelligat" - "He who reads, let him understand" - which are the words Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ conveyed in no uncertain terms to His disciples, recorded in Matthew 24: 15, in speaking of the abomination of desolation foretold by Daniel the prophet and these times which, from all signs and events, we are in or very close to the very times He refers to. This Gospel is also the last Gospel of the liturgical year, being read every 24th Sunday After Pentecost just prior to the First Sunday of Advent.

For the love of God.

There is a TLM in Fairbanks, AK next to the Cathedral. I'll be attending that as often as possible once my unit finally redeploys. Not because I disdain the Novus Ordo so much (there are a few issues - understatement), but because the TLM is that much more powerful and prayerful.

" Come, let us Worship and bow down before our King and God.
O Come, let us worship and bow down before Christ, our King and God.
O Come, let us worship and bow down to Christ Himself, our King and God."

[Knitting A Conundrum]

O Jesus,
O Light,
O Hope of mankind,
God with us,
Who came as the poor child
of poor parents,
King of the universe
embracing his people,
You who come so often
in the guise of the irritating,
the unpleasant,
the lowly,
the needy,
the ugly,
the hurt,
Come to me today,
as surely as you came that nativity night
and fill my heart
with the light of your love
that I may see with your eyes,
love with your heart,
touch with your touch,
until,
when you come again in glory,
King of the universe,
Righter of wrongs,
Merciful judge,
Lord or Lords,
you might look into my heart
and say
"Yes, I know you.
Come to the wedding feast."

Good post! I also like how you got those two crosses in the title of the post -- hadn't seen that before at Free Republic. :-)

[Robert Drobot]

Right key the initial post and click "view source". At the beginning of the source coding you will find :

† Christ Our King! Now And Forever! †

When the line is HTML coded for bold it results in the change of the cross configuration :

† Christ Our King! Now And Forever! †

There is no need to 'bold' the line to gain this affect to the crosses, when posting to the post title line of FR.

Thank you for the compliment. Praising the Most Holy Trinity is a work of love to the glory and forgiveness our Almighty Father offers to each man woman and child in world, provided :

Each forsakes all false gods, teachings and writings;
Acknowledge His Son, the Holy Ghost and Himself as their One True God;
Acknowledge the Immaculate Conception and Assumption of the Mother of Jesus Christ - the Blessed Virgin Mary;
Submit to whomever holds the office as His Vicar on Earth - the Pope.

Amendments to my last post to you, ConservativeStLouisGuy :

Praising the Most Holy Trinity is a work of love to the glory and forgiveness our Almighty Father offers to each man woman and child in world, provided :

Each forsakes all false gods, teachings and writings; Acknowledge His Son, the Holy Ghost and Himself as their One True God; Acknowledge the Immaculate Conception and Assumption of the Mother of Jesus Christ - the Blessed Virgin Mary; Submit to whomever holds the office as His Vicar on Earth - the Pope, and abides with all of the Sacred Dogma and Teachings of His One True Church. Some such examples :

Pope Boniface VIII's Unam Sanctam
Pope Leo X's Exsurge Domine
Pope Paul IV's Cum Ex Apostolatus Officio
Pope Saint Pius V's De Defectibus and Quo Primum and Consueverunt Romani
Pope Benedict XII's Benedictus Deus
Pope Gregory XVI's Mirari Vos
Pope Pius IX's Syllabus of Errors
Pope Leo XIII's Humanus Genus and Immortale Dei and Satis Cognitum
Pope Saint Pius X's Oath Against Modernism and Pascendi Dominici Gregis and Lamentabili Sane and Our Apostolic Mandate
Pope Pius XI's Mortalium Animos and Quas Primas
Pope Pius XII's Mediator Dei and Sacramentum Ordinis

I just found this sermon of Fr. Pfeiffer's from the Feast of Christ the King 2005. Fr. Portugal reads the epistle and gospel, then Fr Pfeiffer gives the sermon. Download it now if you want it, it will only be available for a few more days.

Sermon for The Feast of Christ the King

Another beautifully instructive homily. Thank you for sharing it here, murphE.

I especially like Father Pheiffer's chastisement about our failure to witness to our co-workers, friends and acquaintances the presence of Christ Jesus in our lives every hour of every day.

Paraphrasing Father Pheiffer : We know who is and is not married, who is and isn't a Catholic. More importantly they don't know we are Catholic, because we fail to witness Jesus Christ; we don't teach pagans ( all non-Catholics ) the wonders of Holy Mass; speak in detail about the Holy Sacraments; tell our friends why we believe in the virginity of the Holy Mother of Jesus Christ; speak to them of why the Pope is His Vicar on Earth.

The fact that his words were music to my ears had no bearing on my joy at listening with uplifted joy at the far-reaching impact his words had and are now having to the faithful. Father Pheiffer is a remarkable witness for Jesus. May he continue to be blessed and strengthened by the Holy Ghost in his devotion to his vows

Copied, and saved. Thanks again, murphE!!!

Correction : We know who is and is not married, but we don't know who is and isn't a Catholic.

Thnx. I will listen to it tomorrow.

A treasure trove!!! Every Catholic should participate in a spiritual revival focusing on a comprehensive understanding of this bedrock instruction. It should be led by the religious, priests, pastors and bishops, and lacking this, we might want to take a page from our Chinese brothers and sisters - open our homes for the purpose of devoted study about our faith.
