From Archbishop Vigano’s Pastoral Intervention

In this recently released pastoral text, Archbishop Vigano directly and forcefully addresses the manner in which the Church (and all the churches) has become indistinguishable from the corporate structures now clamoring to blend into the Great Reset.

We have understood, in these times of crisis, that whoever is constituted in authority is now disconnected from those over whom he holds command. The so-called pandemic has shown that those who govern are obedient to the orders of supranational powers, while citizens are deprived of their rights, and any form of dissent is censored or psychiatrized, according to a recent felicitous expression. The same thing happens in the Church: the highest levels of the Hierarchy obey the same powers and deprive the faithful of their rights, censoring those who do not intend to renounce their faith and do not accept seeing the Church being demolished by its Ministers. João Braz de Aviz is perfectly aligned with Jorge Mario Bergoglio, and both of them zealously support the establishment of the New World Order.

This is the painful reality with which we must daily confront ourselves, and for which we must pray, fast, and do penance, imploring the intervention of God and the Most Holy Virgin to help us. In this supernatural battle, the contribution of religious men and women is fundamental: this is why it is more necessary than ever that consecrated souls rediscover the sacrificial dimension of their vocation, offering themselves in holocaust as expiatory victims. This, after all, is the heart of the religious vocation and of being Christian itself: becoming like Christ and following Him on the Cross, so as to sit at His right hand in blessed eternity.

I therefore invite those who have the privilege of having chosen the state of perfection to pray with renewed ardor, to fast with zeal, and to do penance. Finally, let us ask the Holy Spirit to touch the Ministers and Religious who have been led astray, granting them the gift of repentance and the grace of forgiveness.

    I still attend Mass at my village church every Sunday and keep many of the old traditions alive. My son is currently an altar boy. So, I get where you are coming from. The Catholic Church is the only church I know, and I’m not interested in other churches. However, blind obedience and papal infallibility and other such things are not part of my religious practice.

      Being an outsider, I come from a completely different perspective than your “The Catholic Church is the only church I know.” I know nothing of blind obedience or papal infallibility. I only know my sincere and stumbling attempts to grope my way to something I do not understand and yet believe is true.

        Vigano and others like him know the Church more than you or I ever could; it hasn’t prevented them from speaking out against the corruption.
        In effect, this makes people like him outsiders within the Church. I am an outsider in this regard as well. The Church has essentially forced this outsider status upon many Catholics, but I don’t see this as a bad deveopment, especially when one considers the direction in which the insiders are leading the Church.

    This sort of thing is bittersweet for me. Whenever I find myself being grateful that people like Vigano are still present in the Church, I am also simultaneously reminded of just how corrupted and converged the Church has become.

      Yes, I understand, Francis. For me, I am quite schizophrenic about the Church. I am horrified by so much that I know about her, and there are so many, many roadblocks to my ever being received into full communion in the Church, and yet my interior compass needle swings to her again and again, and I am restless when I do not perform my private devotions of lectio divina and the Rosary and the Liturgy of the Hours. I step over the things that repel me and embrace the things I love. And I do love so much about the Roman Catholic Church. I look forward to entering my rest someday when this sojourn is over and when I can have some questions answered.
