Save the Cross at Mt. Rubidoux


+IHS+
My Fathers, Brothers and Friends,
If you were not aware the Giant Cross on top of Mt. Rubidoux is in threat of being taken down. There is an article with more information here . This Cross is only about 10 minutes from my House out here and can be seen from Miles around, even from the Sky.

The Cross among other things was erected by the Archdiocese of LA and dedicated to Blessed Father Serra. Please help save the Cross that Honors God in a time where he is dishonored, that blesses the surrounding land and upon those that cast their eyes upon the cross with devotion; to take it down would be an insult to the Divine Majesty and surly provoke Gods wrath against us.

Here is a link to a few fliers Filer 1, Filer 2 with information to hand out, or if possible get them put up in your Churchs bulletin board. We need to apply as much public pressure to the Council as possible.

Please pray that the Holy Cross be preserved unchanged. The Council makes its decision Tuesday January 22, and also it would also be helpful if you could write a letter, e-mail or give a phone call to the City Council of Riverside asking them to keep the cross, all of their contact information is here

If you wish to attend the council meeting or workshop (I will probably be going to the workshop) the details are found here

Thank you for your help, and May God reward you!


In the Cross is health, in the Cross is life, in the Cross is protection from enemies, in the Cross is heavenly sweetness, in the Cross strength of mind, in the Cross joy of the spirit, in the Cross the height of virtue, in the Cross perfection of holiness. There is no health of the soul, no hope of eternal life, save in the Cross. Take up therefore, thy cross and follow Jesus and thou shalt go into eternal life. He went before thee bearing His Cross and died for thee upon the Cross, that thou also mayest bear thy cross and mayest love to be crucified upon it. For if thou be dead with Him, thou shalt also live with Him, and if thou be a partaker of His sufferings thou shalt be also of His glory. The Imitation of Christ

Alleluia Audio Books

One of my friends just recently took on a wonderful project to improve our Catholic spirituality. For every 1000 Catholic apologetics websites, there is probably only one website for spirituality. At times I feel like that should be an inverted statistic. So, I think this kind of apostolate is sorely needed in the world we live in today, not the least of which by this author. Thank you so much Noah, and I hope folks will find spiritual treasure in the current offerings of this site, as well as what is to come.

The website will be permanently linked on the menu to the right with all of the other wonderful blogs and websites out there.

God Bless all of you!

Email: Una Voce America

Laurence,
I was looking for your Una Voce chapter website recently and it looks like it's been disabled.
Have you moved it to another server or to another address?
That was such a great site -- visually one of the best Una Voce sites out there ... I hope you kept it alive somehow.
Thanks,
Una Voce America, Board Member


Hi "xxxx",

I do apologize for not getting back to you sooner. I actually gave up the UVSB presidency back in 2010. The new president is Noah Moerbeek. I don't believe he maintained some kind of website. The problem with the website was, our webmaster sort of stopped helping us with technical issues. One day all of the links which I worked so hard to compile and to categorize and sort were no longer live and post tags were no longer working. At that point I lost my motivation to keep the site current. I had created a new website last year (Cal Latin Mass Blog) which I envisioned to be a California State-wide effort to get reps from all/most of the Latin Mass parishes to submit reports, pictures, events so that Californians can be informed as to what is available for them at all of our parishes. Alas, as usual, it was only left to the intrinsically motivated. I had recently regained some excitement to start again, and so I will probably plan some projects to promote the Latin Mass. So, please stay tuned! Thank you for the encouragement, I am glad at least some people miss my old site. I have received compliments from many people. I was told Una Voce Philippines modeled their site off of mine. May God continue to bless the efforts of Una Voce.

Have a wonderful day!

Hi Laurence,
Thanks for your reply. I fully know what you mean about how projects can fade away like that. I hope you will do something again though -- perhaps a regional blog or helping a local group get a site started. I really enjoyed the visual style and design you brought to the old site.
Thanks again and God bless
xxxx

Video: The Latin Mass - Fr. Calvin Goodwin, FSSP

A few years ago when I went with my best friend to visit the Fraternal Society of St. Peter (FSSP) Seminary in Nebraska, as part of our discernment process I had the pleasure of sitting in on Fr. Calvin Goodwin's Latin Class. He is a wonderful priest.

May God Bless him and the Fraternity of St. Peter.
