The Jesuits Today

[patriarch]

Seemingly in an effort to confirm the underlying thrust of Malachi Martin's book, The Jesuits, the order sent Fr. Joseph Fessio, S.J into the outer darkness on March 11th. See story from National Review Online linked below:

::shaking head::

That is really, really sad. It makes me sick to my stomach to read. I wish I had more money and/or influence. I'd donate money to Campion College and try to persuade upper officials in the Church to take a stronger stand against President Previtt...

The Jesuits..!

Well isn't this strange, the Jesuits in a controversy for a change.
The history of the Jesuits ( in particular )and the Church and all it's denominations is littered with events such as you describe and " shine a light on "

All we can do is stand up for and speak out about the injustices in the world, the church, our neighbour and ourselves.

I heard a true story about Vatican 11 and the preparations for it.
Apparently the Vatican beaureaucrats had all the documents already made out in order for the whole exercise to be a rubber stamp job.
Then when the Cardinals got together, they apparently prayed and decided to " let the holy spirit lead them "...which is why the whole of Vatican 11 took longer than originally anticipated, and turned out to be such a great and successful achievement.

So much for setting things up eh !

David

Anybody care to engage in a Novena with me for the express intention of praying for the restoration and healing of the Society of Jesus? I'm thinking a Divine Mercy Novena would be good, and you can even download it with Virtual Rosary's program. Today will be day 1, jump in as you wish.
