DEAR BISHOP STRICKLAND, I EXPECCT TO HEAR OF YOUR RESTORATION AS THE GOOD AND HOLY MAN OF GOD YOU REMAIN SINCE YOUR BISHOPS ORDINATION. I PRAY FOR YOU AND I ENJOY YOUR HELP AS YOU CONTINUE TEACHING US . I WISH I HAD THE FINANCES TO SUPPORT YOU BUT I SIMPLY DON'T. GOD WILL SUSTAIN YOU AND YOU WILL REMAIN HIS FAITHFUL SHEPHERD. MICHAEL J DONNELLY
Strickland’s removal from office by the pope follows a Sept. 9 meeting between Pope Francis and Cardinal Robert Francis Prevost, O.S.A., head of the Dicastery for Bishops, and Cardinal Christophe Pierre, apostolic nuncio to the United States to discuss the apostolic visitation’s results.
Thank you Bishop. I find myself in cautious mode having felt the joy for Francis only to be let down. This is a Francis guy for sure. But will the office shape him and the Truth guide him? That is my prayer.
While watching the new Pope being introduced, I did not have a good feeling and was not feeling the joy, but I will pray for him and all in the hierarchy of the Church. I read your last substack on May 5th and it did help me to get my mind straight. Thank you and bless you, Bishop Strickland!
Pope Leo XIV invoked the ‘name’ of Mary!! Strongly, he brought her into his blessing. We said the “Hail Mary” together. It was beautiful. And, he spoke of Pompeii. This was a big sign for me.
Yes. Today is the feast day of Our Lady of Pompeii.
The Covenant of Love, where Schoenstatt members offer themselves to Mary, is a key element that connects Schoenstatt to the Marian spirit and devotion seen in Pompeii, where devotion to Our Lady played a significant role in the rebuilding and development of the new Christian city.
Also, today is the anniversary of the Apparition of St. Michael at Mount Gargano, Italy.
You are a true Shepherd of Christ Jesus ... I truly salute your comment and grace ... this is the man that removed you and also the man that seated Cardinal Archbishop of Washington, D.C. is Robert McElroy
Love that Leo XIII composed the St. Michael Prayer. Pope Leo XIV messaging us? Cardinal Strickland 🙏🏻 love that thought❤️ Thank you for fostering our hope.✝️
Perhaps we should test his likeness to Leo XIII by asking him to reinstate the St. Michael Prayer to its former place at the end of Mass. Surely no one could argue that we need LESS protection from Satan than our ancestors did in the 19th century, when evil could not propagate itself worldwide in seconds!
Guarded, Restrained, Respectful and Holy. Well done Your Excellency 🙏🙏
Extremely gracious and a good example as always for us. Prayers for Pope Leo XIV and continued prayers for Bishop Strickland.
Thank you your excellency! We appreciate your guidance and helping us stay focused in the proper direction! Mother Mary, all the holy popes and all the Saints please pray for Pope Leo 14th!
Amen🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

FAT CHANCE!

Let us pray that the new Pope lends his ear to the Holy Spirit and follows that guidance to conform the world to God.
Amen.
Amen!
Thank you Bishop Strickland for your Courage, Humility and unwavering faith & voice for us during these trying times..🙏❤️
I pray that the new Pope will be stronger and more conservative, but from what I’m reading…
We’re just gonna have to keep the prayers going!!!!
The ICKSP SAYS HE IS FAVORABLE TO TRADITION.
Yes George, Pray Pray Pray!
That is the concern in our family as well.
Praying!

I did feel joy, especially when he first came out and he was fighting back tears. The weight of 1.4 billion Catholics and the whole world.

Is today actually the feast day of Our Lady of Pompeii? I didn't catch that, nor hear that clearly.

There is not a lot of joy in our Catholic sacrificial faith, but every giving-up is worth it
Au contraire! Through the Covenant of Love with the Mother Thrice Admirable, I receive immense Joy!
Ahhh, yes, sacrificing is joyful. Mother Thrice Admirable - what a lovely name!
Thank you Bishop Strickland
Thank you, Bishop Strickland. Praying. 🙏🏻

That doesn’t bode well for the future. God help us. 🙏🏻

Yes, that would be a blessing.
YES, THAT would be a blessing
We always say it, but I’m in a traditional parish in a conservative diocese.
Continued prayers❤️🙏🏼
Bless you Bishop. Please keep us positive and hopeful
