I Want to become a Catholic, but…
Editor, The Remnant: I’ve studied the history and theology of the Catholic Church for the last few years and have come to the realization that it is the One True Church and that to be saved I must become a Catholic. But strangely, since Vatican II and especially with the election of Pope Francis, that Church no longer exists. What should I do now?
Thank you Barry Gill
Editor’s Response: You have been given a great grace---to see the Truth despite the crisis in the Church. Don’t abandon hope, and remember that the Church will never cease to exist. Please contact a priest of the Society of St. Pius X or the Fraternity of St. Peter. If you don’t have either in your area, please contact us and we will put you in touch with a good priest who can assist you in this urgent moment of grace that God has so obviously given you. God bless you.
MJM Remnant TV on John Vennari’ Death
Editor The Remnant: I wanted to thank you, Mr. Matt, and colleagues/ friends/faithful for so many things - for bringing my family to the Traditional Church, for introducing us to the likes of John Vennari RIP and for telling it how it is. I can’t tell you how much I needed this talk [WHAT IS DEATH; John Vennari Remembered] right now. You have articulated the worries that have been banging around inside my mind but I couldn’t get a handle on.
You are so right about the children. I talk to mine often about the 4 last things (to my limited ability); the importance of being close to Our Lord with the help of Our Lady, the angels and saints; the perils of this world and the very real threat and presence of the devil. But mostly being ready to face Jesus when our time comes. It seems that not many parents find that important. When Our Lord said to the women of Jerusalem ‘don’t weep for me but for your yourselves and your children’ we can see perhaps that those words are particularly appropriate for our time.
This would have made a much better TED talk....
