PRAY FOR THE INTERCESSION OF SAINT PADRE PIO

PRAY FOR THE INTERCESSION OF SAINT PADRE PIO!
JUSTICE IS TRUTH IN ACTION - BLOGGER. CINOPS BE GONE ALL POSTS - MON. MARCH 30, 2020
 
Preface:
    For Catholics, I recall when we prayed the daily Rosary for the conversion of Russia. And the collapse of  Russian Communism occurred. It was a miracle that almost no bloodshed occurred. Padre Pio was an Italian Catholic priest who died in our lifetime, 1968. The corona virus is on our minds but also the spiritual health of our country and the world. WE pray also for the conversion of America, Russia and Communist China. 
   
    Part of the prayer to Saint Padre Pio reads as follows: "Because of your friendship with the Lord, God heals those you ask to be healed, and God forgives those you ask to be forgiven. Through your visible wounds of the Cross, which you bore for 50 years, you were chosen in our time to glorify the Crucified Jesus..continue to intercede for us and our loved one before the Lord." Padre Pio's life is all about intercession and he does it. Read all about it on the blog. 
 
    I have completed on this blog, 18 Chapters  of 35 Chapters from the excellent book Padre Pio  The True Story by C. Bernard Ruffin. By the way, we had a cure for cancer but the person who found the cure according to Padre Pio was aborted. And now Cardinal Raymond Burke has a message for us.

"Cardinal Burke, in a statement on the COVID-19 pandemic released March 21`, pointed out that "a person of faith cannot consider the present calamity in which we find ourselves without considering also distant our popular culture is from God." ... It is not only indifferent to His presence in our midst but openly rebellious toward Him and the good order with which He has created us and sustains us in being."
 
"We need only think of the commonplace violent attacks on human life, male and female, which God has made in His own image and likeness, attack on the innocent and defenseless unborn, ... Pervasive attack upon the integrity of human sexuality, of our identity as man and woman, with the pretense of defining for ourselves, often employing violent means, a sexual identity other than given to us by God ... witness the devastating effect on individuals and families of the so-called 'gender theory."
 
Finally, Cardinal Burke mentioned "a paganism which worships nature and the earth." There are those within the Church who refer to the earth as our mother, as if we came from the earth, and earth is our salvation... in God alone we find salvation." the American Cardinal emphasized.  Francis DeBernardo, executive director of the pro-LGBT New Ways Ministry ... called on Pope Francis to remove (Cardinal Burke and Mexican bishop Ramon Castro of Cuernavaca from public ministry for dangerous and irresponsible language about LGBTQ people."....
 
    Fr, Serafino Lanzetta, a member of the John Paul II Academy for Human Life and Family, stressed that Burke's statement on "the pervasive attack upon the integrity of human sexuality, of our identity as man or woman" has to be seen "in the light of many other sins denounced by His Eminence as the cause of a just punishment permitted by God with a pestilence."...
 
In 2011, Cardinal Donald Wuerl, considered a liberal by many Catholics, wrote, "In no manner is the position proposed by New Ways Ministry in conformity with Catholic teaching, and no manner is this organization authorized to speak on behalf of the Catholic Church or to identify itself as a Catholic organization."...

P.S. I saw a one hour special musical program by Elton John on Fox News last night (Sunday) at 6 P.M. Pacific time and it was absolutely meaningless to me.
