This writing, Your Excellency, is like a cool drink of pure water on a bitterly hot dry desert day. I've longed for so many years to read what you,ve just given us. Thank you in God 's grace for this masterpiece of love for Holy Mother Church and for all of us. We are in the battlefield ready for the Truth to be won.

Oh goodness gracious! Oh Gracious Goodness! What an important teaching for your flock! Satan is so close we can smell his sulfur. Yet you blow the wind of Truth that brings Christ's fragrance that dispels every putrid lie. We truly love you, Bishop,and thank you!

My brother and I used to laugh at the uncomprehending flock sitting kneeling standing as they worshipfully listen to Lateran Masses of which they barely understood a word as it was in a language not spoken amongst themselves in almost 2,000 years.

When I tell younger members of our parish that all of us 4th graders altar boys happily had to memorize the entire Mass in Latin , they often shake their heads in wonder .

My response is that in the 1940’s and 50’s the Lord was still having trouble with ESL .

As many of them also struggle with ESL, they readily sympathize with the Divine.

Fasting. Adoration and our Mothers Rosary and Bishop not one penny to Rome. Nothing to USCCB I will find sound Catholic seminaries and support sound Christ centered organizations.

NOT ONE PENNY to ROME

Thank you Bishop Strickland for being a clear voice of Truth in our times!!

Arise oh Lord and let Thy enemies be scattered and let those who hate Thee flee from before Your Face!

2 Chronicles 7:14

And my people, upon whom my name is called, being converted, shall make supplication to me, and seek out my Face, and do penance for their most wicked ways: then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sins and will heal their land.

Thank you for addressing this for what it is. The articles I have read are vague. There is no mention of God, but of "Spirit." Are they referring to the "Holy Spirit?" No Scriptures have been quoted to explain "Exchange of Gifts" and "Journeying Together," which all led me to discern exactly what you addressed. STAY SPIRITUALLY STRONG!🙏
