An appeal from our Catholic brothers in Germany, Austria and Switzerland

ON 26 APRIL 2021 FROM VARIOUS AUTHORS

Dearest Constance and Dear friends of the Wi-Fi Monastery, spread our appeal …

It is very difficult for us Catholics residing in Austria to live our faith , but not because of atheism or other religious beliefs… it is the “pseudo-Catholic” church that persecutes us. I don’t think you can realize the problem of the «new church» that is growing within the Catholic Church in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. It is not just a doctrinal or moral problem: it is a very serious human problem. For 17 years my husband and I (along with a couple of other families) have been trying to survive, even asking for help from the leaders of the Catholic Church (up to the Pope). All in vain. By now, even the priests who proclaimed the Word of Christ are «converting» to what they themselves call (with pride, alas) the «middle church», which includes movements such as Maria 2.0, Maria Magdalena, Parish Initiative ( proudly disobedient in Rome), Catholic Youth, Catholic Women’s Movement … all well publicized by the Dioceses and financed by the simoniacal Kirchenbeitrag tax (you pay and you can receive the Sacraments, you don’t pay, you are excommunicated and baptized).

All these realities are supported by the Bishops and promote dangerous ideologies: same-sex marriages (including adoptions), female priests, abortions allowed in certain circumstances, Eucharist for divorced people, fewer Masses, abolition of the Sacrament of Confession, etc … Speaking with this «middle church» (I repeat, strongly supported by the Bishops and priests, who instead literally hate the ancient rite that is slowly growing here) gives goosebumps. The pain I feel every time I listen to them is indescribable.

The majority are frustrated people, full of anger and resentment towards the Mother Church, convinced that they are following a Jesus whom they are stripping of everything. Then the women are furious: they demand important positions, also financial recognition and, even here in Innsbruck, they organize «ecclesial» strikes. Yes, it seems absurd, but it is so: they invite everyone, even priests, not to celebrate Mass in the Church, but only a silent prayer outside; to refrain from any «work» (because for them following Christ is a job like any other) in the Church for several weeks a year and protest in the streets to obtain worldly recognition and thanks. The anger in their gestures and words is reminiscent of those in Nazi films. After 17 years of struggles and tears, we begin to think that this people are still paying in their souls for the mistakes Luther committed to Hitler … The harshness of the glances of some priests and consecrated women, whom we reputed friends, while we try to remind them with meekness ( literally on her knees and with tears in her eyes) the wonderful message of the gospel is disturbing. This «middle church» is a deeply unhappy and dying church.

Besides being aggressive and with a petrified heart. They make us incredibly painful. We beg you to join us in praying for them, because as Luther caused an earthquake 500 years ago, now something worse is happening and it will affect the whole Universal Church, precisely because of the silence of those who should correct (and you know, because we assure you who knows … we have written letters to cardinals, priests, to the Pope himself …). This «middle church», mixed with the values ​​of this world, is destroying the Kingdom of God more than are atheists or believers of other denominations. The situation is serious! We have been shouting this for years, but everyone continues to praise Cardinals like Schönborn, who is one of the leaders of this new Protestant church but who calls himself Catholic. Speaking with them you understand that they have a specific goal: to empty the doctrine from within. A priest told me these exact words, shouting them in my face without too many compliments: “the schism is already there, but it will NEVER be official. It’s a no go. We do not want and cannot leave the Church of Rome! ”. The ideas of the German theologians (because all the movements mentioned above are in the hands of theologians, sons of Kung and Rahner, buried in the Jesuit Church of Innsbruck) have already replaced those of Tradition, but it is not said openly, precisely because they want to be defined as Catholics: they want a different Catholic church. By them I mean the overwhelming majority of German-speaking believers, led by priests, Bishops and Cardinals who have now come off the path of faith and believe only in themselves. In Catholic schools it is already taught that homosexuals have the right to marry (on the other hand, rainbow flags are waving on the facades of the Churches), even stating that the Church of Rome is retrograde, bad, tough … My son is a witness to it in spite of himself and he is came home upset.

Not only that, they promote the use of condoms from the age of 12 and make a pounding vaccination campaign against the papilloma virus (completely forgetting the prevention, even of all other physical and spiritual sexually transmitted diseases). The official catechism is no longer taught; they have released other more fashionable ones. Personal confession is not recommended (especially for children and young people); a sort of community chat is promoted in which everyone repents of what they do not know, since, according to a priest, sin can no longer be named here. The new church speaks only of weakness and frailty, of which the poor children have no fault. Only many parades of women are organized (including many consecrated women with a lot of veils and posters) who speak in the middle of the city of Holy women of the past with the EXPLICIT purpose of being considered equal (or better) than men, of being able to become priestesses salaried and to grant their eventual husbands the same privilege … And for priests to marry (perhaps with those among them who are still spinsters or who are consecrated). Some of us were even warmly invited to participate, since three of the organizers there are different «deaconesses» (didn’t you know, they’ve been here for a long time) parishioners and theologians (very frustrated, in their words, for having to be content with being alone theologians, because of the male chauvinist church). The Bishop of our Diocese supports them very strongly, so much so that he had a giant banner hung on the facade of the cathedral with these words «As long as God has a beard I will be a feminist». Not only that, he was so proud of it that he had an interview to explain his gesture even better. We could go on for a long time … but I ask you to read the burning prayer of St. Louis Gringnon of Monfort (after all) to understand at what point of affliction we are. We do not lack hope, as we know that the afflicted will be comforted and Christ has conquered the world.

But the Mother Church cannot continue to pretend nothing has happened: Christ suffers bitterly because of these men of God who betray him more and more every day, inviting so many of his children to sin, even mortal sin. What makes us feel bad are the souls… who are visibly frustrated, unhappy, angry with everything. And this anger is spreading like wildfire. We pray you, in the name of Mary Most Holy, of Her Immaculate Heart which suffers immensely, join us in a crusade of prayer to prevent more and more souls from being deceived by the Ministers of Christ. To pray for these Ministers who have become mercenaries, because they have abandoned their vocation to follow Christ. They refused the Cross! And so they will not be able to enjoy the Resurrection.

Pray that the infinite Mercy sprung from the Cross may be poured out on them and, like the centurion, they may see again. We sheep are exhausted … Fighting against openly anticlerical ideologies is hard, but we assure you that resisting the same ideologies when friends (in the sense used by Jesus with Judas) try to import them with a hardness that you cannot imagine, is really exhausting. We need Mother Church to come to our aid and join us in this resistance, supply us with food (here it is now very difficult to find a healthy Liturgy; we have returned to the ancient rite of communities such as St. Pius X and the Fraternity of St. Peter for attend Mass) and show us your maternal affection, instead of continuing to repeat to us that «the German Church is fine this way, that it is chatter, gossip, that the church cannot be criticized …».

Let us make our own the words of Saint Catherine of Siena:

“And therefore, if I speak what seems to be too much and sounds presumptuous; the pain and the love I am sorry to you to God and to your Holiness.

For wherever I turn, I have nowhere to rest my head.

If I turn there (that where Christ is, there must be eternal life); and I see that in your place, which thirsts for Christ on earth, the hell of many iniquities is seen, with the poison of self-love…

Let the margarita of holy justice shine in your breast, without any fear ”.

We make ours his plea to a great prelate:

“Open your eye and see the perversity of death that has come into the world, and singularly in the body of the Holy Church. Oime ‘, let your heart and soul burst to see so many offenses from God! … Alas, just keep quiet! shout with a hundred thousand tongues. I see that, by keeping silent, the world is spoiled, the Bride of Christ has turned pale ”.

. Take us seriously, please! Support us with words and prayers! May the Lord give us holy priests! May the Lord not allow us, our children to fall into temptation, but free us from Evil! The air that blows here does not promise anything good … it is really poisoned and is the harbinger of a storm that promises to be terrible, at all levels. And that will spill over all of Europe.

And then, with Saint Louis Grignon of Montfort, by now at the end of the day we cry, crying:

Why so few soldiers under your flag? Hardly anyone will cry out in the midst of his brothers for the zeal of your glory like St. Michael: Who is like God? (49).

Then let me shout everywhere: Fire! on fire! to the fire!… Help! Help! help!… There is fire in the house of God! There is fire in souls! There is fire even in the sanctuary … Help! […]

[29] Whoever is with the Lord, come to me! (51). All the good priests scattered throughout the Christian world, whether they are still in full combat or have withdrawn from the fray in the deserts and solitudes, come and join us (52). Let us form together, under the banner of the cross, an army deployed and ready for battle, to attack the enemies of God who have already given the alarm: they sound the alarm, they tremble (53), they gnash their teeth (54), they are more and more numerous (55).

«Let’s break their chains, let’s throw away their bonds.» He who dwells in the heavens laughs, the Lord mocks them from on high (56).

[30] God arise, his enemies scatter! (57). Wake up, why are you asleep, Lord? Wake up! (58). Lord, get up! Why are you pretending to sleep? Rise with all your omnipotence, mercy and justice. Form a select company of bodyguards, to protect your home, defend your glory and save souls, so that there is only one fold and one shepherd (59) and all may glorify you in your temple (60). Amen.

GOD ALONE!

Elena together with Martina, Miriam, Federica, Enrico, Günther, Philipp, Mauro, David, Gabriel, Samuel, Eric, Matilda, Elena …-

«If you lose your personal and social sensitivity towards welcoming a new life, also other forms of hospitality wither away «(Benedict XVI)
