“The Catholic Church is selling America down the tubes to build their membership. Evil.”
The priests need fresh meat.
BTW, this is the AMERICAN Catholic Church which is a hotbed of socialism.
I know the Catholic church in Oracle very well. Monsignor Ambrose is not a political person, not wanting political posters in the parish, although, he has admonished us to acknowledge the illegal alien, as if we already did not.
St. Helene’s is a jewel of a church, built by love by one of the early settlers. We had a mortgage on a piece of land that the parish sat on and every other week we were asked for a supplemental offerings.
When the most generous patron died, (and the coffers were always so meager, if it weren’t for this patron), his widow paid off the mortgage. But one month later the diocese asked for another supplemental building fund for a new church, a bigger church for the next generation.
That was a bunch of hooey. I sat by myself in the front row. There was a constant attendance, but it was not a big church and there were not that many practicing Catholics for the four services Sat. thru Sun. If you arrived right before service, the door might hit the altar servers ready for the procession. There were some young people, but with the mining gone, I didn’t see them sticking around.
The bishop who is a big lefty, pro immigration, put water barrels in the desert kind of activist, would not dare put the illegal invaders in conservative parishes up the road in Oro Valley or Marana. But he can step all over little St. Helene’s in Oracle.
This is one of the most idyllic places in Southern Arizona, oak trees, snow in the winter sometimes, lots of beautiful hills. Wild Bill Cody had his ranch here. A gorgeous dude ranch has recently been restored ( haven’t revisited it yet, though.) I would have moved there first when we came to AZ, if we had known about it.
This would tremendously impact the community, which is a mix of white and 3rd generation Mexican. I really feel so sorry for them. I hope they take to the streets and stop this infiltration.
““The Catholic Church is selling America down the tubes to build their membership. Evil.””
NO truer words have ever been spoken.
