The long, dark night of the vocation shortage appears to be coming to an end... at least in some dioceses. Take Kansas City, for example. In 1994, it had one seminarian; the next year, none. But now...
Good for ya, Kansas City!
This family adding one seminarian to the Diocese of West Palm Beach next year. Way to go Kansas City! Good to see men are answering this call to duty as well. While a militia is important and necessary, unless we return our Repblic to God it will all be futile. Some fight with swords in the hand, others slay with the spirit, and there is not a more welcomed site to a wounded soldiers eyes on the battlefield than a man of God......
There are that many old people in KC? :-)
God answers prayer!
yes he does. We need both types of warriors in this country today. The coming battle demands it, the holocaust of the innocents have moved God to move the faithful out of comfort zones and into the war zone. Pray hard for these men, they are facing Satan down as we are facing ours on our front line. The uptick in seminarians in the last couple of years tell me the battle is truly coming to a head. Satan has made great strides in this country for many decades now, especially effective was his tool to convince the masses that he does not exist, therefore sin does not exist, and the christian majority went about their lives not protecting themselves, their family, or their country from his relentless attack. The scales are starting to fall from their eyes, and they don’t recognize their own country! The faithful remnant who prayed without ceasing has held us to Him by a thread. Now, as the blood of the innocents cries out to Him, He is stirring souls and preparing the faithful for battle. Eagles Up, Prayers Up, God save Us!
As a recent addtion to the faith, and a Born and Bred Kansas Citian, it is good to see that Kansas city is becoming more Catholic. With all of the negative news coming out of KC latley, (the Mayor, Kat Seb-taxus, and Dennis Moore) this is truly up lifting.
God Bless,
Ave Maria
