Lamplighter Award given to those fostering the light of truth in a dark world: ***To To Bishop Joseph Strickland, whose testimony at the bishops’ Baltimore meeting urging fraternal correction among his brother bishops gave hope to the laity that there are shepherds who actually care about the sheep. We thank Bishop Strickland and beg the intercession of Bishop St. John Neumann for him. St. John literally burned himself out at the age of 49 for love of his flock. Pray for Bishop Strickland and all those bishops who love and defend the faith! Millstone Award given to those who through ignorance or malice scandalize God's people: ***To Bishops John Stowe, Robert Cunningham, and other bishops who enable homosexual clergy to scandalize their flocks. Beg the intercession of St. John Chrysostom who condemned intercourse “contrary to nature” and called for reform of the clergy. Pray for the conversion of negligent and evil bishops who serve human respect rather than God. |
