      Welcome to the Country Club

 

    This is a look at the apostasy and hypocrisy of St. Francis Parish in Missoula MT, but this

same story is playing out at many Parishes and other organizations everywhere. Even after the

great Purification, problems like this will still arise within society. While at a Catholic conference

recently you could blatantly see how the sex scandal and apostasy in the church was allowed to

grow and fester. A young Priest spoke about being black and white, honest and truthful. Another

old timer later countered with false statements about how to deal with misdeeds in the Church.

He said; "do not bring scandal into the church". The problem of course is that the scandal is

already within the Church and we need to get it OUT in the Light. In the light it will

wither and die. Far to many people think they are above not only secular laws but God's laws. We

have the 3 monkey mentality, see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil. Here is what Scripture says,

from Matthew;

            18:15 Moreover if thy brother shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee

            and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother.

            18:16 But if he will not hear [thee, then] take with thee one or two more, that in the mouth of two 

            or three witnesses every word may be established.

            18:17 And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell [it] unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the

            church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican.

The status quo says just give us your money, and don't ask any questions. At the height of the

sex scandal in Boston the majority of the people didn't want to do anything, if you follow the path

of least resistance it is unlikely that you have picked up your cross. The sex scandal is just the

tip of the iceberg to the problems facing the Church. It is one thing to disagree on matters but

to blatantly deceive, take from the young and poor, and squander money to placate the vanity

of a few so called leaders and to operate in the dark is a grave if not Mortal Sin.

Matthew 23:24 [Ye] blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel.

            23:25 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup

            and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess.

            23:26 [Thou] blind Pharisee, cleanse first that [which is] within the cup and platter, that the outside

            of them may be clean also.

            23:27 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres,

            which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead [men's] bones, and of all

            uncleanness.

            23:28 Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and

            iniquity.

            23:29 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets,

            and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous,

            23:30 And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with

            them in the blood of the prophets.

            23:31 Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which

            killed the prophets.

            As we see in this 1000 year old letter some things have remained the same since Jesus' days,                

Apology by St. Bernard concerning Church vanity from11th century

 

Here is a quick look at the issues which will be laid out in more detail in short letters and chapters below;

                  The Plan?                                                                              an Alternative

spend millions of dollars with NO income                          spend less than a million with a positive cash flow

Catholic schools or the poor of Guatemala                          They receive the money plus much more like

loose over 1 million dollars                                                   funding for other projects.

loose a gym and get a smaller auditorium                           save God's gym for children and keep the larger auditorium

end up with 1/3? the building space                                    room for free to subsidized daycare, teen center, gym,

secret information so exact numbers                                    Catholic bookstore, 1st Way Pregnancy Center, Library

can not be given and much more.

New expensive Blueprints                                                     Blueprints are optional and are not needed

small Vanity Center                                                                true community center helping God's people

                     As the stewards of Jesus Christ the choice is clear.

 

    If you seek the truth in this world you will find trouble and if you shine a light on it you will be hated, but

if you do nothing and look the other way you will have trouble later on when you have to make an account

of your life. I can't pretend I don't know what is going on and what the true numbers and opportunities are.

The song and dance routine always a favorite game to play as it wears out most people who don't really

care anyway and then you generate a mound of paperwork to hide behind. So click here if you want to

take a closer look at the Strategic Sham and the Grave Sin . Instead of addressing the issues they try to

discredit anyone who asks questions. Here are some weak accusations against me that they have made,

Shoot the messenger , just like another project where I helped the children I was vilified by a group

who had squandered a lot of money, see Cold Hard Cash Gone.

                                The Lukewarm Church

Here is a letter to the Parish Council about this matter while members of the Parish come up and ask

about the project and say they will help, but not in the political part. Most don't care and almost no one

can tell you what the real issues are. This is what wounded Jesus the most in the Garden when He asked

for God to take the cup away, He was shown the lukewarm Church or comfortable Christians. and as He

states in the Book of Revelation 3:15;

        3:15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.

        3:16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spew thee out of my mouth.
