Reports From Mill Basin(GMV Screws Up)

The Supposed “Star Wars” Version of The Novus Ordo Mass, was actually just a simple “Family Mass”, offered in the Mill Basin Section of The Borough of Brooklyn at St. Bernard of Clairveux, where Msgr Jamie Gigantiello is Pastor.
From Info supplied from Mill Basin, next door to Marine Park, an area which uses the Flatbush Street System, as in East 69th Street, close to Flatbush Avenue, located near the Kings Plaza Shopping Centre, This “Star Wars Mass”, was not the actual Liturgy itself, but a Themed Party afterwards.
However, NO ONE, But the Priest(s), Deacon(s), Acolytes, Lectors & Servers should be in The Sanctuary, where The Holy Sacrifice Of The Mass occurs. This is Sacred Territory. I believe that Liturgical Law covers this.
A Warning by Bishop Di Marzio is in order here, as well as better writing of Celebration Posters.

Deacon Greg Kandra, in the comboxes of The Lepanto Institute, advised people to not jump to conclusions, ONLY to have the OMNIPOTENT(At Least He Thinks He Is)Host & Lead Producer of ChurchMilitant.com, Michael Voris, whose style is that of a Reality TV Talk Show Host(Think Jerry Springer, who grew up about a half mile from where I am in Queens), & often, Historically Inaccurate. He may be “The Modern Howard Beale”, if one remembers that oh so Prophetic Movie “Network.” Voris told Kandra that Kandra was wrong “As Usual.”
Just Like Voris’ Top 20 Worst Churchmen of The 20th Century, where one of The Worst wasn’t even a Bishop at any time in that Century, but only his personal favorite Target in this Century. I believe that you know who that Prince Of The Church is.

Dr John Rao is Right. Perhaps the Host of “The Vortex”, like other “Neo Catholics”, should get an honest job like “A Carnival Barker.”

For “ChurchMilitant.com” Subscribers, NYC Is Not Entirely Under Cardinal Dolan

The Roman Latin Church is in a Diocese called Brooklyn and the counties of Kings & Queens are covered by the RC Diocese Of Brooklyn. While The Metropolitan of The New York Province is Timothy Michael Cardinal Dolan, he is NOT The Ordinary of The RC Diocese Of Brooklyn. The Ordinary means the Bishop who has jurisdiction in his Diocese & as Ordinary, ordains Deacons & Priests under the Jurisdiction. He is the Primary Teacher of Faith in his Diocese, just as Cardinal Dolan has jurisdiction over the Boroughs of Manhattan, Bronx & Staten Island, as well as Counties North of NYC, such as Westchester, Putnam, Dutchess, Rockland, Orange, Ulster & Sullivan Counties.
New York City, like London & Rome, have more than One Diocese in the City. New York City is NOT exclusively MANHATTAN ISLAND. My(Brooklyn) Diocesan Bishop is the Most Reverend Nicholas Di Marzio(Who originally comes from Newark, NJ, a part of The New York-New Jersey-Connecticut Metropolitan Area).

Do NOT Blame Cardinal Dolan for everything which goes on in The 5 Boroughs. Only Three Boroughs are his Jurisdiction. The Matter of “The Star Wars Mess” is in the RC Diocese Of Brooklyn. This Farce is between Msgr Jamie Gigantiello, the Vicar For Development for The RC Diocese Of Brooklyn, as well as Pastor of St Bernard’s in Mill Basin, Brooklyn & The Most Reverend Nicholas Di Marzio.

The Reason I am saying Mess instead of Mass, is that The Mass is the Unbloody Re-presentation of The Sacrifice on Calvary, and it would hard to see this in this Elaborate Entertainment Spectacle. It reminds me of The NHL Joke of The 1970s, “I went to a Boxing Match & a Hockey Game broke out.” And one wonders if there was even a Valid Consecration in this Melee in Brooklyn. One wonders if these Parishioners even understand that The Mass is a Sacrifice. Or do they prefer “Circus Et Panem Maximus?”
For Tears began streaming at the start of Prayers at the 11:00AM Tridentine Latin Mass at St Agnes on E43rd Street between Lexington Avenue and 3rd Avenue in Midtown Manhattan. And it doubles my resolve to see to it that The Novus Ordo Mass be consigned to The Dustbin of History.

“The Blasphemous Sacrilege Of A Novus Ordo Mess In Brooklyn”

In the Parish where a Mr Jimmy Kimmel was Christened, namely St. Bernard Of Clarveux in the Mill Basin Section of Brooklyn, what I believe to be a Most Sacreligious Act is to occur on this Sunday, January 31st, 2016 @ 11:30AM EST.
The “Star Wars Mess” has arrived in Mill Basin, Brooklyn, of all Places. I might have expected this in Park Slope, Brooklyn or Jackson Heights, in Queens, home of People who may be covered under the 2014 Synod Of Bishops(Synod of Doom as Mr Ferrara puts it). But Mill Basin, next to Marine Park? WHAT?

For I was at The Tridentine Latin Mass at St. Agnes on E43rd Street between Lexington Avenue and 3rd Avenue in Midtown Manhattan. As Mass on Sextagesima Sunday began, as a Preparation for Lent as the Easter Cycle began last Sunday with Septuagesima Sunday, Tears streamed out of my eyes while thinking about The Blasphemous Sacrilege Of The Novus Ordo Mess In Brooklyn.

Above is the Beautiful Altar of St. Agnes on E43rd Street. Here we kneel for Holy Communion & receive The Body Of Christ on the Tongue. The Only Ministers Of Holy Communion are Priests and Deacons.
While it may not be the High Altar of Holy Innocents on W37th Street between Broadway and 7th Avenue, this Parish was the Original Indult Tridentine Latin Mass Parish in the RC Archdiocese of New York. It is also known as the Parish where “Life Is Worth Living”, Hosted by Venerable Archbishop Fulton J Sheen, often originated from. Also, certain EWTN Programming with Fr George Rutler, originated from St. Agnes. Mum was baptised here in 1921. Noted History Professor & Remnant Writer, Dr. John Rao & The President of The Latin Mass Society Of New York, Mr David Lane, were at the Tridentine Latin Mass at St. Agnes. They were duly Notified of The Blaphemous Mess in Brooklyn.

Msgr Jamie Gigantiello, who is both the Brooklyn Diocesan Vicar For Development & Pastor of St. Bernard’s in Mill Basin, Brooklyn, reportedly will “Preside” at this “Mess.”

Like what kind of Attention are you looking for, Msgr? Louie Verrecchio’s akacatholic.com was not kindly in the least about this. Meanwhile, you are getting “Ripped a New One” by Michael Voris & his Trusty Band of “Cub Reporters”, who operate from the “Warehouse In Detroit”, aka “ChurchMilitant.com.” Just ask Cardinal Dolan just how many times Voris has “Ripped him a New One.”

In fact, Msgr, you should try something RADICAL at the next Family Mass. Like try something TRADITIONAL. The crowds will come. Large Families will come to that Mass.
It is called The Tridentine Latin Mass. And People, for once will be fed “Bread Instead Of Stones.”

Kyrie Elaison!

“Independent Catholic Media? Seriously?”

I went over to churchmilitant.com & on there, a Video from “The Marian Catholic”, hosted by one Christopher McCarthy, was playing about the need for “Independent Catholic Media.” McCarthy even spins the Pencil like Michael Voris when the 1st Pot Shot was fired. It was so blatant, it was as if Mr Voris had copied the script from the..ahem.. “Executive Producer”(The Big Cheque Writer in Texas), & sent along to Christopher to use on his program.

Dr John Rao is RIGHT when he said one Sunday after The 11:00AM Tridentine Latin Mass at St Agnes on E43rd Street between Lexington Avenue and 3rd Avenue in Midtown Manhattan, that “Voris Hates Us(The Remnant).” Now Mr Voris is using Kids to attack Traditional Roman Catholic Media.

McCarthy attacked The Remnant as an outlet, leading people into Schism, while calling ChurchMilitant.com, the ONLY outlet defending the Fullness of Catholic Truth. Like when did your channel become a Mouthpiece for “The Vortex, Where Truth & Orthodoxy is Deleted?
Like I always ask, WHAT GAME ON FOX ARE YOU WATCHING? You sound like a Susidiary of Voris’ Cheque Writer.

You must be subsidized by “The Cheque Writer.” Why else do you sound like The Man With The Pompadour. Your Silence about this pontificate, like your Master’s Silence, is deafening.
You’re The Son that Michael Voris never had.

Two Peas In A Pod!

The Feast Of The Circumcision & Cute Novus Ordo Baby Pictures

Today, MTA NYC Transit did not fail me, as I was at St. Agnes on E43rd Street between Lexington Avenue and 3rd Avenue in Midtown Manhattan, with the United Nations only 3 Blocks away. And there was a Missa Cantata at 11:00AM. Michael Voris, SSPX SCHISM BOY, was NOWHERE to be seen.
It was a Short Gospel. It was a Well Sung Mass. Some of The Regulars were missing.
A number had gone the prior evening to Dr John Rao’s Party in Greenwich Village.
And Father told us “Merry Christmas”, as January 1st is the 8th Day of The Christmas Octave, which is WHY it is a Holy Day of Obligation. In The Tridentine Latin Mass Calendar, Christmas Cycle ends on February 2nd on Candlemas Day, known as The Feast of The Presentation of The Child Jesus In The Temple, and that Sundays After Epiphany are part of The Christmas Cycle.

Happy Christmas Cycle, even though The Novus Ordo Mass Calendar says “Ordinary Time”, which is so Generic.

After Mass, I saw some cute Baby Cards with funny captions. One caption stood out, in regards to The Novus Ordo Mass. It read “I can’t think-The Priest keeps looking out at me.”

“CatholiSchism”? “Voris Hates Us!”

I was viewing a “Faith Based Investigation” on ChurchMilitant.com, called “CatholiSchism”, a drawn out piece about The Society Of St Pius X, as hosted by Michael Voris, one who grew up on the Novus Ordo Mass, and is too young to remember Vatican II.
Michael Voris did NOT do any real reaearch. He did do the Special on ChurchMilitant.com. It was nothing but a Sheer Propaganda Piece.
And after Mass on Christmas Day, I met the Highly Regarded Catholic Historian and Writer, The Brilliant Dr John Rao. I mentioned that “A Certain Polemicist from Detroit is in The City this week, going after Cardinal Dolan.” John asked who it was, so I told him that it’s Michael Voris.
John exclaimed “Voris Hates Us(The Remnant).” I mentioned The Remnant & Catholic Family News, Michael Matt, Chris Ferrara & John Vennari & that I got a visit from The Big Cheque Writer in Texas(Originally From Long Island’s North Shore). John asked if Voris is liked at Holy Innocents, which I then remarked that Voris isn’t as liked as Voris thinks he is.

According To “Captain Schism”, Pope Honorius was declared a Saint by Byzantine Catholic Churches. Wrong, Verenky Breath! Honorius I is a Saint in the Eastern ORTHODOX Churches. The Authority to make Saints in The Catholic Church, comes out of The Holy See.
Vatican II, a Doctrinal Council with Teachings CONDEMNED by Previous Popes & Councils?  What? The Novus Ordo Mass didn’t come from Vatican II? The Blueprint came in Sacrosanctum Concilium. It is starkly apparent that you didn’t really read Sacrosanctum Concilium. Religious Liberty putting the Protestants on a footing that they”re part of The Church? Jews, Hindus & Muslims need not convert to the One, True Faith? You declare War on The SSPX for not accepting this as Catholic Teaching?  Are you sure YOU aren’t in SCHISM?  Who elected YOU as Pope? Besides, WHAT GAME ON FOX ARE YOU WATCHING?

Gary? Pride goeth before The Fall.
And ripping Cardinal Dolan “A New One” every week is NOT going to cut it.

One No Longer Need Wait For The 6PM News & Coverage Critique

When a 5 Hour old Baby was found in a Manger at Holy Child Jesus RC Church in Richmond Hill, Queens, NY, it was News enough for Correspondents from The Manchester Guardian & London Daily Mail, to be present, as well as Associated Press & WABC 7 Eyewitness News, all of which have Smartphone Apps.

Welcome to The New Media. And via that New Media, the Story gained Attention around the World. The Old Media of Radio, Television & Newspaper, got the Information via checking Social Media such as Facebook & Twitter. The Old Media transmitted the Story via the internet.

The Manchester Guardian & London Daily Mail utilized Freelancers to write the story on The Baby Found in the Manger. Both British Newspapers have Smartphone Apps. The US & British Broadcast Networks have Smartphone Apps.

On actual coverage by CBS News:
Edward R. Murrow, Walter Cronkite, Eric Severeid, Harry Reasoner, Robert Trout, Andrew Rooney, & Dan Rather would be utterly ASTONISHED at the Description of who you called the Holy Child Jesus RC Church Pastor. Both the Parish Administrator & the actual Pastor are recipients of The Various Stages of The Sacrament Of Holy Orders.
In one part of the Story, the description of The Pastor was Amateurish at best. It was as if he was in charge of “The First Church Of The Gooey Death & Discount House Of Worship”(Attrib. John Donald Imus). It was as if the Man had not been Solemnly Ordained a Priest in The Sacrament Of Holy Orders.
The Actual Pastor received The 3rd Stage of The Sacrament Of Holy Orders, in being consecrated as a Bishop & he is The Most Reverend Octavio Cisneros, DD, Auxiliary Bishop of Brooklyn. It was the Parish Administrator, Reverend Fr Christopher Ryan Patrick Heanue, who was simply referred to as Church Pastor, minus a Sign Of Reverence for him or his office, as well as Stage of Holy Orders.
Oh & Another Thing, I know these two Fine Priests quite well.
Just be thankful that you weren’t contacted by the Executive Director of The Catholic League For Religious & Civil Rights, Professor William Donahue, as that would have been a Bruhaha, with casualties.
Another Thing is that if GARY Michael Voris at Church Militant.com had gotten involved, CBS News, the Associated Press, and both the Pastor & Administrator of Holy Child Jesus RC Church in Richmond Hill, Queens, would end up being basted & roasted like a Turkey, with both The Pastor & Administrator, being accused of being “Church Of Nice” Agents & having their supposed “Dirty Laundry” aired in public, probably lumped in with Voris’ Bugaboos, the Society Of St Pius X, & John Vennari’s Catholic Family News, Michael Matt’s The Remnant Newspaper, Christopher Ferrara, Dr John Rao, Mundabor’s Blog, Rorate Caeli’s Blog, Louie Verrecchio, Brian Mc Call, Patrick Archbold,  Fr Thomas Rosica, Professor William Donahue, Pope Emeritus Benedict XVI, Pope St. John Paul II & Timothy Michael Cardinal Dolan(As Usual), Et Cetera. This is the Modus Operendi of “The Warehouse In Detroit.” A Week Long Sensationalist Special would be produced with Statements taken out of context, by this Morton Downey Jr Wannabe. And he would have a Studio Audience for this one, probably at FOX O & O WWOR9 In Secaucus, NJ, where Morton Downey Jr’s Show originated from.

.

Acuracy & Clarity is all that is asked for, along with Objectivity & Charity.

Happy Thanksgiving!

“It’s Sad, Really”

The above is a comment made by Christopher Ferrara Esq on “The Remnant Forum” on You Tube, in regards to Michael Voris becoming Estranged from The Traditionalist Allies, who helped shape Michael’s Sensus Catholicus. I am using this comment to decry the Rather Massive Drop in crowds at St. Agnes on E43rd Street in Midtown Manhattan, from 2013 to 2015. It is from this Parish where I resumed a major return of My Sensus Catholicus in January, 2007, by going to a Tridentine Latin Mass(TLM), on a Sunday After Epiphany.
It was around The Advent Season, in fact the 1st Sunday of Advent(December 1st, 2013), when the Holy Sacrifice Of The Mass was “Wall To Wall” with Young People in a packed house.
And NOW? Where Did They All Go?
I recall the “Unofficial Master Of Ceremonies”, Mr David Lane of Woodside, Queens, passing Circulars after Mass. I asked as to why there is such a huge crowd, to which he remarked “The Latin Mass Is The Youth Movement of The Catholic Church.”
Fast Forward to 2015 & the Crowds were going much lower, though a young Dallas, Texas convert named Anne was there with a friend. A number of Pews were empty. I saw Anne at a TLM in 2014, as the crowds began dying down.
I may have gotten an inkling one Sunday, December 15th, 2013 at my 1st Ever Byzantine Rite Divine Liturgy Of St John Chrysostom at St. George Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church in the East Village on E7th Street, across from Mc Sorley’s Ale House. A Latino Male told me that he goes to Holy Innocents in Midtown Manhattan & they have The TLM there 7 Days a Week. I did a double with the TLM at St. John’s Cemetery Chapel in Middle Village, Queens & then the Divine Liturgy Of St John Chrysostom. A certain # of Tridentine Latin Mass Catholics have often known about St. George Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church. Certain of the Holy Innocents Crew also utilize the Russian Greek Catholic Parish of St. Michael’s on Mulberry Street in the Former Chancery of The RC Archdiocese of New York, on the Grounds of Old St. Patrick’s Cathedral Parish in Little Italy.

Today, much of the TLM Crowd at Holy Innocents is made up of former regulars at St. Agnes. Some felt uncomfortable at St. Agnes. I often see the St. Agnes Regulars at Holy Innocents during the week & a number of the Young People there. Potential Converts often come to the Sunday TLM at Holy Innocents.
The TLM came into St. Agnes in January, 1989. For awhile it was the ONLY TLM in NYC. Holy Innocents went with the TLM in 2009. It saved the Parish from Utter Oblivion. And it became The Centre of The TLM Movement, especially receiving huge Media Coverage because it was threatened with being merged or shut down.
There was Summorum Pontificum by Pope Benedict XVI on 07/07/07, which freed up the Offering of The TLM, by any Roman Rite Catholic Priest. In NYC the Mass grew. And in 2009, Holy Innocents joined the Tridentine Latin Mass. And this saved Holy Innocents.
But, I do say to those who want to give the TLM a shot to save one’s Sagging Faith, give St. Agnes a shot. You Will Love the TLM & the Great Conversations which follow it.
Give St. Agnes A Chance, People!

Deo Gratias!

A Happy Reroute, Deo Gratias!(26th & Last Sunday After Pentecost)

Normally, I travel to Holy Innocents RC Church in Midtown Manhattan on West 37th Street between Broadway and 7th Avenue. Well, this Sunday was different, courtesy of the “Wunderkind” who run MTA New York City Transit Subways, as the E & F Trains ran on the Local Track, stopping for huge # of Delays. A Ten Minute trip between Kew Gardens Union Turnpike & Roosevelt Avenue 74th Street, became a 40 Minute Run. So at Roosevelt Avenue 74th Street, I transferred to the 7 Train heading to W34th Street 10th Avenue, so I could head to St. Agnes at E43rd Street between Lexington & 3rd Avenues in Midtown Manhattan.

What is normally an overall 50 Minute trip was 1 Hour 47 Minutes. I timed it & discovered that I was not going to make it to Holy Innocents in time at all. The St. Agnes Journey would never take this long. But, I am gladdened to have made it to St. Agnes on E43rd Street, as it is Something of a Homecoming. My Mom was baptized there. St. Agnes High School, part of St. Agnes Parish, was connected to the Church via Passageway from E44th Street to E43rd Street.

Today is the 26th & Last Sunday After Pentecost on the Tridentine Latin Mass Calendar. Today is also, on the Novus Ordo Mass Calendar, The Feast of Christ The King. Those of us who usually go to The Tridentine Latin Mass, The Gospel is about Signs & Wonders At The End Of The World and to be on guard against “False Prophets”, “Wolves In Sheeps Clothing” & other Fakers.

I am NOT a Fan of the Generic Term called “Ordinary Time” in The Novus Ordo Mass Calendar. It makes Roman Rite Catholicism look like Calvinism, so devoid of what makes Roman Rite Catholicism, well, Roman Catholic. Surely the “Neo Catholics”, who accepted all the Novelties such as Altar Girls, Holy Communion In The Hand & “Lite FM” Muzak, decided to “Go With The Flow”, which may as well be the Gowanus Canal in Brooklyn. The Gowanus Canal cannot support aquatic life & the Novus Ordo Mass cannot support Growth in The Roman Rite Catholic Church, except in shuttering many Catholic Schools & Churches. The Generic “Ordinary Time”, like between Epiphany and Lent, is a Veritable “Nowhere Land.” It is so Calvinistic in Terminology, with NO Catholic Flavor to it. It is as if a Freemason had come up with the term(And may have originated with the Secular Humanist Fr Annibale Bugnini, a Reputed Freemason). Hey, the Lutherans & Anglicans don’t even call it Ordinary Time.

I know that over at the 10:30AM Tridentine Latin Mass at Holy Innocents, there is a Coffee Hour, which I enjoy, but I do like some intellectual food as well. I actually found a more “The Remnant Newspaper” Style of Roman Rite Catholic, Traditional Catholics To The Core, including A Professor of History & Writer, The Great Dr John Rao with his Wife & Two Children, who is a Regular at the Tridentine Latin Mass at St. Agnes. There was even a Double for John Salza JD. I had mentioned that I viewed a Lake Gardone Special, produced by Michael Voris, a name NOT appreciated at St. Agnes. Someone volunteered information that two families who attend an SSPX Chapel, donated the Trip to Lake Gardone to Michael Voris. This was in the time before One J. Terry Carroll, now living in Texas, turned Voris on Traditional Catholics & the SSPX as some kind of Attack Dog.
I mentioned that I viewed “The Remnant TV” Coverage of The Synod Of Doom(Attrib, C. Ferrara Esq).

I am glad that Fr Mc Guire, who also has Offered the TLM at Holy Innocents, is the Regular Latin Mass Celebrant at St. Agnes, The Parish that started the Tridentine Latin Mass in 1989.
I was Happy To Be Home.
