And truly believing, apparently, that any human, of any gender, is going to simply submit to that! How bizarre with all the problems the church has with male clerics that it should at this moment in time attempt to silence the lambs. I think the Holy See could better utilize allotted time and resources to improve the image the church has suffered due to years of coverups and deceit.

Even our enemies will respect us for not giving up our principles. Look at these churches that seem to follow the wind of trendy values. Protest this and protest that. Wear the latest fashions. Cut your hair like this or like that. Those with any kind of honor flee these churches. They know that they have failed and have fallen. They know that there is no future in these churches. Stay the course I say. In the end, when you look back and see behind you the mayhem that the devil has caused, you will be safe in following the one true Roman Catholic Church and our Blessed Pope. As human and imperfect as he may be. He is our Rock. The Rock does not flail with the wind. The Rock stays grounded. It's amazing. Our Lord Jesus Christ knew there would be these moments of uncertainty. He called Peter the Apostle the Rock for a reason. Upon this Rock I will build my Church he said. We are witnessing a prophetic miracle happening. Our Lord has given us the Rock to keep us grounded and safe. The rock is like an anchor on a ship without a sail in rough waters, you know you are not going anywhere. You know you are safe. You know that when this earthly life is over for all of us, we will look back and see the Rock still there for those that we love and remain here. Is it not re assuring to know that? God Bless our Church and our beloved Pope. Stay the course. Even our enemies will respect us for not giving up our principles. Look at these churches that seem to follow the wind of trendy values.

The sisters in orders that belong to this conference can often be recognized because they wear religious habits. They are young, happy and proud to be faithfful Catholics, as opposed to the bitter, aging dissidents of the orders that belong to the Leadership Conference of Women Religious. When asked by a religious order for contributions, Catholics should determine which conference the order is associated with and act accordingly.

The faithful sisters I know who served the church all their lives would not be affected by any investigation into their lives because they are not guilty of anything so they need not fear. God bless those who serve Him faithfully and fulfill thier vows to God in love, faith and purity of soul. rh any sister who has been faithful to the gospel and the church of Jesus Christ will not be intimidated by any suggestion from Rome.

This is a grace God has given. If I have love for priests or nuns it is because they are faithful to Christ's Body. If not faithful, where is the love?

How many know that a nun was photographed escorting a woman into i a clinic to procure an abortion? How many know that a leadership meeting the LCWR stated that they are "beyond Jesus? How many know that a nun at a Catholic funeral for a lesbian in which most of the congregation was hostile toward the Chuech were all encouraged to receive the Eucharist when this nun knew well that there would be desecration of Christ's body The liberal media is enjoying what they do best- disparage the Church.

Their decision to seek "relevance" through politically correct activism has decimated their ranks. The Vatican showed great depth in their report on the LCWR, examining closely their words and actions. The Conference's silence on the loss of abortion is augmented by the inability of their current president to acknowledge the Defense of Life in unambiguous terms. Church history is, unfortunately, littered with Catholics (including Religious) who seek approval of the governing class at the expense of "the least of these".
