100th Anniversary of the
Death of the
Greatest Pope of the 20th
Century
(Centenary Year Begins August 20
at 8:15)
St. Pius X
The 100th year since the holy
death of the brilliant and great
Pope Saint Pius X, begins in the
Americas, tonight at 8:15
Eastern Time. The great-hearted
Pontiff "fell asleep in the
Lord" 99 years ago on August 20
at 1:15 a.m., local Roman time.
This is his "Dies natalis", his
birthday into paradise.
So, the
holy Centennial Year begins.
Italian
dioceses in Venetia are observing it. Rome *may* have a
flabby or almost non-existant response.
For the
100th anniversary of his election, 2003, there was zip.
Under Pope Francis? We don't know.
Let all
Catholics who love our Holy Faith, who despise theological
Modernism, who abhor the "diabolical disorientation" which
has made of Holy Church a "devastated vineyard" unite in
honoring this great and holy Pastor, and in calling always
more intensely on his intercession and help! |
