So that’s what happened to Fr. Francis Mary Stone, MFVA…

Though, according to the Curt Jester, the “Stone” part of that is the only part of that title that remains…

Somehow, seeing a picture of him in shorts and a t-shirt creeps me out to no end.

The man still has the mark of a priest on his soul–that’s indelible–so he could hear confessions from someone in danger of death, but otherwise he’s a layman once more.

I can only imagine how the other friars have been feeling; it has to be like a member of your family leaving you; rips your heart out.

Sancta Maria, ora pro nobis. u_u

Follow up on my last post..

I really like how a friend of mine put things.

I swear if it wasn’t at least venially sinful, I’d smack some of the folks on one of the boards I’ve been following this on. GOOD WORD you’d think they were mini-Popes the way they ring down condemnations. Ugh.

Anyway, a mini-h week (purgatory week?) has begun in my academic life, so I’ll have to leave it at that. I WANT to write more, but if I start ranting, this will take forever. :p

What the…?

I trust CWNews pretty solidly, for what that’s worth.

Now if only I thought any priest around here would offer the TLM once permission is granted…and, someone please correct me if I’m wrong, I’ve never heard of Cardnal George being strict with his permissions to say the TLM in the first place. My understanding is that there’s just little interest among the priest and the laity; those who want it pretty much have it. And I’ll still sit through the Novus Ordo in my parish so long as the words of consecration remain valid, untill/unless a TLM becomes avalible near my house. (My parents keep a pretty short leash on where I can take the car, barring weddings, pretty much.)

So yeah, blog rumors are nice, but it’s stories from sites like this that really raise my hopes and expectations. This should also give us cause to pray that this can lead to some kind of healing and reconcilliation for those schismatics or otherwise canonnically irregular, often over this Mass, to be brought back into full communion with the Vatican.
Pope Sts. Pius V and Pius X, pray for the reconcilliation of the orgranizations that bear your names.

I’m off to a wedding tomorrow for two friends of mine. It’s a few states over (see above comments on car,) and I’d appreciate any prayers for safe travel that anyone has to throw at me. This will be the longest I’ve ever driven alone, and the farthest I’ll be from home by myself. Needless to say, a bit daunting. =-S
