Vatican Sex Abuse Summit in Rome (0)
RTV Covers Vatican Sex Abuse Summit in Rome
Remnant TV was in Rome this past week covering the Vatican’s clerical sexual abuse summit on the “protection of minors”. It seemed a dismal assignment, to be sure, but the reason it was necessary for The Remnant to be in the Eternal City was so we could throw in with our traditional Catholic allies in Rome who’d organized an act of formal resistance to the Vatican sham summit.
Going in, we all knew that the ultimate goal of the summit was to establish child abuse—not rampant homosexuality in the priesthood—as the main cause of a crisis in the Catholic Church which now rivals that of the Protestant Revolt. (Remnant TV coverage of this event as well as the Vatican summit itself, can be found on The Remnant’s YouTube channel, and for your convenience is laid out below:

In a previous article, we explored to what extent the fusion of the religious and the political was the common lot of humanity, and that the Catholic religion was a unique exception in this.
We also observed that "modernization" is basically a "paganization" of society, and thus a return to a pre-Christian state, to the old man, with an aggressiveness of the apostate perhaps in addition, but where nothing is fundamentally new.
“[I]n spreading religious faith and in introducing religious practices everyone ought at all times to refrain from any manner of action which might seem to carry a hint of coercion or of a kind of persuasion that would be dishonorable or unworthy, especially when dealing with poor or uneducated people.” (Vatican II’s Declaration on Religious Freedom, Dignitatis Humanae)
Exploring the Theological Heritage of Francis’s Most Recent Attack on Proselytism
By: Robert Morrison | Remnant Columnist
Introduction by Michael Matt
“Rome will lose the Faith and become seat of the Antichrist.” These foreboding words form the most controversial part of the message of Our Lady of La Salette, delivered in 1846 to little Maximin Giraud and Mélanie Calvat in La Salette-Fallavaux, France.
Though the message includes not a few hope-filled promises of heavenly intervention and even divine protection, it is described as “Our Lady’s Apocalypse” for a reason. It is not for the faint of heart. Nevertheless, it was officially approved by the Church, and the Basilica of Notre-Dame de La Salette was designated as such by Pope Leo XIII. Alas, even this was not enough to prevent La Salette – the message and the seer – from becoming the subject of a brutal campaign of opposition that began almost immediately after the little cowherders had first encountered Our Lady silently weeping in their mountain pasture.
Given that Our Lady of La Salette had come to warn the world against corrupt churchmen who would betray her Son, it is hardly surprising that there was a massive push, initiated by the Modernists, to discredit and bury Our Lady of La Salette.
However, given the startling manner in which Our Lady’s warnings have become our horrific reality today, we decided to stand with Our Lady against her detractors by traveling up into the French Alps after this year’s successful Pilgrimage to Chartres to consecrate ourselves, our families, and our nations to Our Lady of La Salette.
On June 3, 2023, I led some 50 Americans up the mountain in La Salette, where Remnant Tours chaplain, Fr. Anthony Dorsa, led us all in praying the following Act of Consecration, which was written by Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano specifically for this occasion. MJM
Act of Consecration and Reparation
to Mary Most Holy, Queen and Mother of the Church
at the Sanctuary of Our Lady of La Salette
O August Queen, Most Holy Mother of God and Mother of the Church, Our Lady, our Hope, Help of Christians, to whose name the hosts of Angels bow down and the infernal hordes withdraw in terror: kneeling at the foot of your throne we invoke You, and we ask You to listen to our prayer
Tormented by the grave apostasy which strikes a mortal blow against humanity and by the crisis which afflicts the members of the Mystical Body of your Son, [in these places blessed by your apparition to Mélanie and Maximin,] we consecrate ourselves, our homeland and the Holy Church to You, so that thanks to Your powerful intercession and by virtue of the merits of Your compassion and co-redemption, You may deign to implore the divine Majesty to spare us from the punishments that loom over the world and over nations.
We offer our nothingness to You, aware that we are completely indebted to Your Divine Son; to you we entrust and consecrate ourselves, our families, and our loved ones, so that every breath of ours, every beat of our heart may be an act of praise to the One who as a provident and most loving Mother has so often admonished and called us to correspond to the infinite Love of our Creator and Redeemer by a virtuous life following the Commandments. Protect us in this terrible battle against the Enemy of the human race, who seems to be unleashed today as never before in order to snatch souls from Heaven whom Jesus Christ has redeemed at the price of His Most Precious Blood.
To you we offer and consecrate our homeland, begging you to implore for it the Peace of Christ in the Kingdom of Christ. Grant us good and holy rulers, who will govern the nation according to justice and respect for the Law of God. Inspire in them the strength to resist the snares of our enemies, the courage to fight them fiercely, and the humility to place all hope in Our Lord Jesus Christ, to whom all earthly power belongs. Obtain for the United States of America protection and defense from the furious assault of Satan: may Your virginal foot crush the head of the ancient Serpent and thwart the infernal plans of his servants. Hear the prayer of so many good souls and spare America, as you spared the inhabitants of the repentant city of Nineveh.
To You, Queen and Mother of the Church, we consecrate the Spouse of the Immaculate Lamb, and in particular the Hierarchy and the Ministers of Your Son: remove from us the scourges that [here] in La Salette you announced as impending on all of us all because of their infidelity. Confirm in your love the clergy and religious who have remained faithful to your Son, and move to true conversion those who afflict his Most Sacred Heart with their sins, scandals, and sacrileges. Let the Holy City of Rome rediscover the Faith and be a beacon of Truth for all nations, and not – as you have revealed – the seat of the Antichrist. O Mary, our Advocate, offer to the Most Holy Trinity the sacrifices, penance and fasts that so many of your children carry out in union with the Passion of the Lord Jesus. May the voice of the many priests who are persecuted because of their fidelity to the Gospel rise to the throne of God’s Majesty, as well as the voice of the faithful who, thanks to them, are able to feed on the Bread of Angels and sanctify themselves through the Holy Sacraments. May the Graces of which you are the Mediatrix descend upon all of them, upon all of us.
Finally, accept, as reparation for our sins, the sins of the Nations, and the sins of your Son’s Ministers, our humble act of submission, by which we proclaim and acknowledge You as our Queen and Lady, and Your Divine Son, Jesus Christ, Our Lord and King. Preserve us in Your love, accompany us with Your intercession during this earthly exile, and welcome us into the blessed glory of Heaven. And so may it be.

FINDING LA SALETTE: Consecration at the Top of the World
By: Carlo Maria Viganò
If, as likely, this turns out to be a scientifically-inexplicable case of incorruption (see story here), it seems significant that, precisely at a time when the current Supreme Pontiff is imposing ever-increasing restrictions on the celebration of the ancient Latin rite of Mass, God has chosen to preserve miraculously the mortal remains of a sister who belonged to an order which has the Mass and all its sacraments celebrated in that supposedly 'backward-looking' and 'outdated' Latin rite, and which is so 'rigid' and pre-conciliar' that all its nuns, like the deceased Sister Wilhelmina, wear the full traditional habit.
(BTW, these traditionalist Benedictine sisters are fully legitimate canonically: they were founded in association with the Priestly Fraternity of St. Peter, which was erected by the Vatican's Ecclesia Dei Commission and whose leaders were given a friendly audience even by Pope Francis a year or two ago.)
(And since this nun from a western Missouri convent is African-American, one can't help wondering whether there is also what might be called a "Black Deaths Matter" message here. After all, the woke, hard-left militants of Black Lives Matter habitually ignore the fact that pre-born black American infants are killed in disproportionate numbers by Planned Parenthood and other abortion providers who - ironically - enjoy the unreserved support of BLM.)
Sore legs and high spirits reigned again on the Remnant's annual pilgrimage to Chartres, through the forests and fields of the French countryside.
The American chapter was blessed with a record attendance, 140 pilgrims, including a large number of young men and women and families with small children, as well as the tried–and–true usual suspects.
Beautiful weather graced all three days of the walk. We gave the French a run for their money with our sustained repertoire of songs for the road, and fueled our final climb to the cathedral square with a joyful chorus of "Immaculate Mary". This year, we were privileged to lead the "Etrangeres" (Foreigners) column of pilgrims from England, Ireland, Poland, Italy, Germany, and countries from all continents.

GUARDIAN of TRADITION: The Remnant on Pilgrimage
By: Michael J. Matt | Editor
It’s hard for me to fathom that many of our readers today would not even have been born the first time I walked the Pilgrimage from Paris to Chartres. Since then, not a few dear friends and allies of The Remnant have also gone to their eternal reward. The world has changed in ways we could not have imagined back in 1991. Come to think of it, about the only thing that hasn’t changed is the Pilgrimage to Chartres, based as it is on the unchangeable realities of Catholic Tradition – the Latin Mass, the Rosary, the Catholic family, the Four Last Things, and the Social Kingship of Jesus Christ.
“I am campaigning, AS MUCH AS I CAN, against a consecration of the World to the Immaculate Heart of Mary, because I can see the danger that a move in this direction would constitute.” (Yves Congar, My Journal of the Council, entry for September 17, 1964)
How Have Vatican II’s Ecumenical Wagers Against the Blessed Virgin Mary Panned Out?
By: Robert Morrison | Remnant Columnist
New from RTV...
The Zelensky Road Show to Rome – what’s it all about and what was Putin’s response? Not to be outdone, the Bilderberg Group hosts a secret meeting to discuss Artificial Intelligence’s role in building a new geopolitical order.
Meanwhile, Bishop Joseph Strickland speaks out against the agenda of Pope Francis in Rome, actor Richard Dreyfuss speaks out against the Davos agenda in Hollywood, and Jim Caviezel speaks out against the swamp in Washington.
Question: Why are so many Minnesotans leaving the state en masse? Could it have anything to do with woke Dems setting up a new Gestapo in the ‘Land of 10,000 Lakes”?
From Bilderberg to Bergoglio: The Plot to Cancel God
By: Michael J. Matt | Editor
Secularism is the religion of the French Republic, and Masonry its church. They admit it themselves, and it is true!
This secularism is defined in the contemporary, revolutionary world by the sacrosanct principle of "separation of Church and State" for traditionally Catholic countries, as in France, or, re-expressed in a softer, more liberal way, by "freedom of worship" or "freedom of religion," denounced in his time by Leo XIII in his encyclical on liberalism.
Why is this nonsense a trap?
Because it is first and foremost a lie.
