Hi!

I am a servant of God on www.prophecyfilm.com and wish to beg you, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, to please link to this wonderful site which has free glorious Prophecies & Revelations of Jesus and Mary from Saint Bridget in many languages!

We also have free videos for download on various catholic topics, and maybe hoped that you could tell your visitors and your family and friends! They are a bit further down on the page and are quite interesting. They are very good for catholics to strengthen their faith, for protestants to come to the true faith, and for atheists to see the scientific evidence of the Bible proving God's existance. You are free to copy all our videos on our site www.prophecyfilm.com to your site if you like them. This can draw lots of brothers and sisters to your site. We know by experience. We hope you also read the revelations and watch our videos personally!

Novos Ordo, The Prayerful Lament

There was a time I was at home
In the Holy Church of Rome.
With faith and zeal I was ibued,
But since the Church has been renewed
I have the faith, but not the zeal;
The modern Church has no appeal.
Must I yell, "Yea God!" to pray?
Is there not some other way?
Must I clasp my neighbor's hand
To show him that I understand?
Has God resigned divinity?
I speak not asininity.
For years I went to Mass each day,
With quickened spirt came away;
No longer does my spirit soar
To dazzling heights as heretofore.
The tuneless hymns offend my senses,
Shallow folksy weak pretenses
Of the chants I oft recall,
Heard only now in concert hall.
Many things have been forsaken,
Yet I pray we may awaken
To a happy compromise
Whereby the Spirit, ever-wise,
Will help us all to recognize
The needs of those who'd like to pray
In the Old accepted way,
Hapless Sheep who soon may roam
Because today they're not a home
In the Holy Church of Rome.

Awesome news Philip!

I never knew a stunning looking church like that existed in the Diocese of Raleigh!

My wife and I will most certainly be there in August.
